Orks are really mad there is no more rus language in this game lol
Безкоштовний апдейт для тих в кого гра вже є.
В мене все працює навіть в 3440x1440, не бачу ніякого бльору про які хтось пише.
Дякую за чудовий апдейт. Впевнений усі погані відгуки від орків які тільки свою мову знають та її тут більне нема в грі!)

Been playing on hardcore, died 74 times in 33 hours.

The wait is over! Despite being invaded by russians the developers has release the game and maybe its still a little too fresh but without a doubt we have something very special here!

This game could be an absolute masterpiece after a bit more polish! But for me personally and with use of the mods listed below and a decent PC so far I have seen very few anomalies (bugs).

The Anomaly Zone... is hard to explain, you need to visit it to understand how it feels. Is it a different reality? alternative world? They did a fantastic job of building the atmosphere. The soundtrack is masterfully done and every sound is making this game more immersive. Zone both scares and attracts you at the same time its sucks you in and the more time you spend there the more you want to come back.

To me personally, a guy who was born in Ukraine in 1984 this game series always been close to heart and really close to location of the game in real life too. First game always felt very special every time you played but I was not a true fan, it changes now!

Weather system is something I did not expected but so happy we got. I am using mod that makes days longer other then that is very cool how many different weather conditions there could be from a peaceful sunset to a deadly storms! Most beautiful and terrifying lighting I have ever seen in a game!

Special anomaly zones in the game are truly special and memorable like Poppy seed field and the Bubble in the first lesser part of the zone, and I cannot wait to explore and find more!

Just like always this game best played in native language in this case Ukrainian voice acting is superb and better then English from what I have heard, I highly recommend you trying Ukrainian audio with your preferred language subtitles.

There is awesome cut scenes, something we have not seen much in the first game.

There is more then 80 different guns that you can customize and break, fix. Gun fights feel realistic and quite fun. Guns are big part of this game and I am glad to see so many different and realistic weapons.

You can chill by the fire and play the guitar, while stalkers tell jokes or stories from zone, on some you can even make an difference, for example there is a truck with a backpack by the Poppy seed field, inside you will find a note and some energy drinks, you keep the note in the backpack and add some drinks the guy at the fire will tell everyone that there is still good people in the zone, if you take everything you will say only bad people left, if you only take the note he will complain that no one will now understand why energy drinks are needed when you go throw the field! I live and breathe the zone now and when I am not in it I want back. This is exactly why we play video games for an escape and this game is amazing at it!

I wanted a challenge and started playing on hard... Maybe too hard but fits the harsh and deadly Zone and for some reason it feels good, and rewarding but I have to agree, some monsters needs a nerf and enemy spawning around the corner should be definitely addressed.

Speaking of patches and future content for this game, please keep in mind developers made this amazing game while being attacked by russia, some of them have given their lives like one of the original game devs while defending his country from russian invaders. The war is not over so please be patient and instead of defending, show your support if you liked the game.

I am still new to the Zone and only have explored some part of the game in 30 hours but every time I have to stop playing this game I am thinking about it and impatiently waiting for the next opportunity to play more.

I want to thank the devs for the amazing work they did during the war and I just wish for one thing in the game - player home, some more personal space to call home in the Zone.

My personal GOTY!

Stay safe Stalker!

Слава Україні! Вдалого полювання сталкере!


P.S. These mods fix most of the issues of the game.

Medkits and Consumables Rebalance
Grok's Balanced Difficulties
Grok's less tanky bloodsuckers and poltergeists
No weight for ammo nades meds and food
Jake's Longer Days
Longer sprinting
Reasonable Weapon Degradation
Reduced Melee and Jump Stamina Costs
GameEngine.ini to add in AppData folder

I also play with HUD visibility 5% helps to take a great screenshots and you can still see the compass and ammo count but feels even more immersive!

This game is something out of this world and if I am asked to describe hell Silent Hill is the first on my mind. Strange journey where one door only leads to another with more scarier enemies which are masterfully placed to always surprise you, making you sit on your edge of your sit, if when you are playing on hard. Journey that slowly uncovers the secrets behind this place and making you regret thing and mistakes you did in the past... Truly survival experience like no other. Enemies and bosses are also straight from hell, you have never seen anything like it for sure!

Silent Hill 2 Remake is a sensational comeback for the franchise and Bloober Team''s best game to date. Far from being just an opportunistic game, it is both a love letter to the saga and a successful retelling of the original one. Faithful and very different, this new game modernizes psychological horror without ever abandoning its old-school roots. Silent Hill 2 Remake is deeply scary and stressful. Besides being very good remake it is simply an excellent survival horror that honors the license and gives us great hope for the future.

The sound... ambient.. everything you hear is sounds... truly unsettling! Music is by the original composer!

PC options are great, AMD FSR 3 frame generation and NVIDIA DLSS 3.5 Ray Reconstruction can be easily enabled. (check comments for the detail instructions)
While it shows some ghosting issues, frame generation can definitely make the game feel smoother, especially for those who are playing on an underpowered system or on Steam Deck.

For my Ukrainian friends there Ukrainian localization on the release! УКРАЇНЬСКА ЛОКАЛІЗАЦІЯ!

I never forget trying this game on my friends PlayStation one evening in 2002... I was mesmerized by filled with fog town and wanted to come back and play the game ever since and I could not imagine a better way to experience the full game in all its glory! IT LOOKS ABSOLUTELY INSANE on capable hardware!

Absolute must play for any survival horror fan and a great game overall!

P.S. There is (8!) endings in this game!!!

Control is mind blowing, bizarre and above all interesting.

Engaging story with just the right amount of crazy, filled with mysterious stories, entities and objects of power that are capable of all sorts of chaos.
Feels like it has elements inspired by SCP containment breach, really giving Control an aura of mystery and intrigue with rewarding exploration and reading it's lore filled with extensive research, case files and other interesting media.

Challenging and inventive. Very satisfying, smooth and cool telekinesis/mind control powers with versatile FPS game play and incredibly smooth Control's and movement.
Honestly most fun and fluid gameplay i've had in a while.

Great progression system where you can choose which powers and weapon types you upgrade. When you've acquired new powers and clearance, you can revisit old areas that were previously inaccessible or locked and find secrets, lore among other things
Immaculate optimization, even my mid end PC can run it 60 fps on max graphics without any problems
Streamlined non clutter game and UI design, unmissable quests and achievements.

Truly a unique and wild ride, it didn't always make sense but the chaos was half the fun of it. Can't wait see what they'll come up with next.

Control was first released on Epic games but just like all their exclusive I waited a year to get it here on steam and glad I waited its a amazing game for any Half Life fan and now it can be modded and still looks absolutely amazing if you are in to a game photography! .

Manor Lords is a relaxed, slow-paced experience about creating the perfect town.

This is one of Manor Lords’ most striking features from the get-go: its deliberate slow-paced gameplay, which expertly captures the slow and steady rhythm of medieval life. Buildings take time to construct, as your villagers need to transport the necessary materials to the building’s location, and some other villagers need to go there and work on it. More complex buildings take longer to build because more material needs to be carried over and a lot more manpower is necessary to complete the task.

In this vein of keeping things slow, but steady, the construction tab might seem rather underwhelming at first, with little more than a couple dozen buildings. No not- I repeat- do not be fooled by this. You see, in Manor Lords, things work a bit differently than other games of the genre. While Anno and Frostpunk have specific buildings for each step of the production chain, Manor Lords’ buildings can serve several purposes.

This game is different. It scratches an itch I haven’t had scratched in a long time, just sitting and watching the progression of my village, the construction, the survival of my people just feels so…real.

It may sound cheesy but I can’t help but feel like a real Lord managing a real town, in a time that happened long ago. The relaxing nature and organic feel of the city building, coupled with the realism of it all makes me feel very, full. Like I can see myself putting hours into this game in this mode alone. My honest review is that this Early Access game, feels so complete despite being incomplete.

Graphics are gorgeous. Ambiance is fantastic. Music is excellent!

Overall for an early access it exceeded my expectations. I highly recommend it to all city builders.

P .S. They just announced more updates and game will be running on UE5 soon!

"You can even bring your own content"

Someones already building a xxx cyberpunk city in their mind...

Absolutely stunning city builder with amazing photo mode!

One of the best Resident Evil games to be released!

It basically meshes together Resident Evil 4 and 7 then gives you the best of two.

The whole story had me completely invested with Ethan and what was going on, in my opinion I love his character and what he brings to this universe, he's brave, resilient but also terrified of what he knows is to come.

The gameplay was good but adding customization and more options to choose from to fight terrifying enemies with, I will say some boss fights did seem a little easy but that didn't take away the fun and horror from them (I'm saying this only playing on normal haha haven't tried a harder difficulty yet. (unlike RE4 Hardcore where I am stuck in the castle)

The village was horrifyingly beautiful and looked amazing in 4K, RT and HDR.

Also As someone who is from Eastern Europe I have to say the Village design and atmosphere is incredible! It sometimes felt like a nightmarish version of my grandmas house...

I played RE4 VR, then 2,3 remake, then I played 7 and really liked the fresh start and first person camera and Village was on the pre-order right when then announced! Happy to say it delivered in every aspect of my expectations! I can only imagine what awaits us in the next chapter of this amazing franchise.

I see a RE show or a movie and it makes me want to play the games...and then I play and want to watch movies again, this universe does not want to let you go!

It was a game of the year for me and many others in 2021!

I will never forget playing original Diablo in the Internet Cafe in Ukraine.

I used to carry all my heros saved on a floppy disc)

When the Diablo 2 came out I just got my first PC and it was second game I played after legendary Half-Life.

Diablo 3 was incredibly fun and my only wish was to have it on Steam.

Here we are with Diablo 4! on Steam!

They just added pets and mercenaries and the ONLY thing is missing personaly for me is a paladin class.

I am really enjoying myself and it feels just as fun as one of the first games I have played on my first PC!
