Legends of the Zone Trilogy

An ungrateful task to write an article about a series of games or special appearance such as Stalker, its fans have been worshiping, modded and treated as a sacred deposit for twenty years. The others went beyond it, or they did not understand their success in their own time. After GSC, there was to take the torch with a new way to break the From the metrostraight the stalker -like into the intoxication of an open world. Also found for yourself this strange worldand then the return of the original brand did not go smoothly, but fortunately the zone has been evolving since then, and the GSC decided last year to run the original trilogy (or rather the first part and its two independent accessories) again before the public. This year, the Xbox Series and PS5 owners received a customized version, and we have now looked at these publications, which is summarized in Legends of the Zone Trilogy.

Unfortunately, it is not only a grateful thing to write about such a cult title, but also to touch the developer site afterwards. Most of the players were not there for the re-discovery, which is particularly funny in terms of all ancient people referring to the original version, while the Stalker Games have a legendary mods, and I think no one has played with the vanilla version since 2007. So here’s another “module” that pulls all three original titles a little. Can the commonplace come? Stalker games they look in the new edition as we want to remember them… but here’s a little screw. Enhanced Edition Releases Actually They look much betterbut they still feel age and time. The textures have been pulled up, tuned in character models, and the terrain has much more effect, shader and vegetation. The light effects give new depths, a kind of fresh surveillance to the terrain displayed by the X-Ray Engine. There is a finely tunable Motion Blur (which is shockingly beyond the basic state), and there is a performance mode that I think it pulls back the visual, mirror smooth, constantly refreshing to the original spectacle.

Well, on X Series X, I was not reconciled because of the performance. In terms of sight, this option gives the minimum we expect after the Half Life 2 Xbox 360 version of a contemporary title, but the image was slow, sticky, and sometimes feel less than 30 fps, which, back, is customary but at least weird. The other thing is controller control, which works well, but with sticky resphanages and deadly mutual attacks sometimes drive the player into a core cramp. We have to get used to, we usually say, but it would have been better to say, to the detriment of the resolution, and to keep the effects a more continuous experience. Possibly more serious optimization.

Anyway, the games themselves are not so old. Of course, they have a retro sensation, and the survivor-Imler SZIM market has already gone beyond. on the first stalker solutions, but it feels so nicely that the Clear Sky And how Call of Pripyat improves, shapes, polishes the original concept so that, as a player interested in mechanical solutions, I really have to highlight this as the greatest merit of the Enhanced trilogy. It leads through the important steps of play history, and you can see one after the other how the developers have been able to make serious conceptual repairs in two or three years. And I didn’t care how loyal the original container and the present, whether there are political overtones-driven texture and model exchange for what modio support allows and not. The package promised a corner of game history and I got it.

You can still find plenty of catch on the Legends of the Zone. The original GUI is already quite stumbling on the console (especially with many duma and inscriptions). The world is terribly empty, especially after Metro: Exodus, which goes to the top. Sometimes it is more lumpy than the big FPS titles years before Stalker. In fact, gun play, animations, and landscaping are sometimes smiling. But you can’t look at everything through the perspective of today’s expectations. The Stalker trilogy gives you an insight into the details of the series, which is a special icing on the cake that it is available on a console, offers Achikatika trophies, and all three parts can be played in Game Pass. Nostalgia and technology lesson, straight from the zone. Good hunting, Stalker!
