0/5 graphics, worse than Nintendo 64. Reused ugly, unrealistic models everywhere. Good thing half of the game is so dark.
0/5 audio: everything sounds like a Zoom call, awful volume mixing too. MP voice chat is an ear bleed. Reuses SFX, even going into HL2.
5/5 performance, literally downloaded whole game to my SSD in five seconds. No loading screens, no FPS drops ever.
0/5 immersion: scientist with superhuman strafe speed fights 3dfx-Voodoo-quality aliens while crouch-walking an air vent.
1/5 story, it's just twist after twist and a male power fantasy, no meaning.
1/5 characters: only two guys show up more than once, no one has facial expressions and the voice actors, can't.
4/5 gunplay: has nu-COD running slides, Quake movement+aiming, no bullet sponges, but no one can hit those headcrabs.
0/5 RPG-gameplay: player character doesn't speak and no one reacts differently to you. Linear weapon progression.
2/5 puzzles+collectibles, tons of loot hidden, visually-guided hazards, but you can just jump until the next door/button.
0/5 stealth+pacifist play-through, you have nothing to do besides run and shoot.
2/5 customization: no weapon skins, can't change 1st-person model, small selection of MP skins, no premium skins, no taunts/dances.
0/5 open world: linear corridor leads to linear jump puzzle leads to hallway/elevator/ladder-disguised loading screen.
1/5 live service: no battle pass, no DLC, no new maps, no achievements, but they made an aim-bot option for single-player.
0/5 MP: it's so bad, just a failed GoldenEye clone. Dead game, no VAC, no game modes or BR; play Quake or UT instead.

Overall, it's a very competently-designed and engaging first-person shooter, but it is simply not as good as Fortnite.

This game takes place in 2011, after when supernatural events start occuring around Chernobyl, and outlaw treasure hunters called stalkers swarm the area, looking for valuble "artifacts" created by said events, battling mutants, radiation, said events, each other, bandits, and the Armed Forces of Ukraine.
It's a mostly FPS, with small RPG elements.
The game is split up into a couple open areas, seperated by hills with impassable radiation, and brought together with convienent paths with loading screens.
It has horror elements, with monsters that literally jump you from out of nowhere, and forboding dark underground laboratory.
The lowest difficulty isn't very forgiving. Guns are very inaccurate, Ammo is expensive, and headshots are one hit kills.
It captures a great atmosphere, done with simple things like surviving on two sasagues a day, coming to a trader with a 100 lbs of loot, stopping by a campfire to hear to the guitar tunes and Russian banter between stalkers, and trying to survive with torn-up armor, a gun that misses every shot and jams every other, and no medkits and a clip of ammo left.
Play on master difficulty. It's not too hard and brings a fun challenge with highly lethal weapons going both ways.

Certain artifact setups can make the game very easy.
There's a stealth feature, but it's unfortunately underused, and most areas make stealth impossible.
Suffers from some bugs. Nothing game-breaking for me at least, but breaks immersion when NPC bodies are littered around campfire because they spawned in the fire, or when the quest marker for one I already did/someone dead stays up.
Game's old, and graphics haven't aged too well. The antialiasing sucks and textures look like plastic.

It has an infinitely usable zipline.
Other than that, it's an action movie in game form. Filled with gunfights and explosions, you play as an American secret agent/black ops who goes and tears up a Southeast Asian dictatorship.
This comes in the form of an open-world(the map is huge) 3rd person shooter with: campaign missions; mini-missions done for revolutionary groups and mafias with simple escort, collect, hijack, destroy, and kill objects; races; military bases and cities with infastructure to destroy, leaders to kill, and upgrades to collect; sprinkled around the map.
Combat isn't too challenging, as you soak up any damage you can get. You can either: zip, roll, and jump around, whacking people, throwing around with your zipline, and shooting people; or do it the boring way.
You also got your cars, your boats, your helicopters, your planes, and your military veichles to use in it too.
You can also just raise some havoc, as in most open world games.
Voice acting is pretty bad, and the very large map isn't too exciting to explore.
