Um jogo Cult Classic dos PCs, Ambientação mt dahora de Chernobyl com um mundo que vc se conecta a fundo a situação da área aonde está, tem uma IA bem inteligente dos inimigo deveras impressionante para 2007 como tbm ser bem realista o combate com armas, que acertar na cabeça nesse jogo é vital e difícil o que traz um desafio bem grande nos combate a longa distância, enfim um baita clássico que vale a pena jogar até hoje, recomendo bastante usar mods como o ZRP dentre outros( e uma tradução se quiserem botar) não joguem a versão nova pq cagaram nele hard

S.T.A.L.K.E.R. é um daqueles jogos especiais que se destacam muito em sua categoria. Ele busca ser um FPS/RPG de mundo aberto e diferentes finais, com relações fluidas entre personagens, comportamento emergente na natureza e uma história e cenários envolventes que sustentam tudo. Esses são objetivos ambiciosos para qualquer jogo, ainda mais para um de desenvolvedores sem experiência em 2007. O que é ainda mais chocante, é o quanto ele acerta, mesmo para os padrões modernos.
No mundo de S.T.A.L.K.E.R., o desastre de Chernobyl se expandiu para criar a Zona, uma terra inóspita governada por criaturas mutantes, anomalias espaciais e mercenários que buscam capitalizar o caos. Você joga com um desses Stalkers sem memórias, enviado de volta à Zona para matar uma figura misteriosa próxima ao epicentro de tudo. Ao longo do caminho, você formará alianças com outros viajantes, descobrirá ameaças muito piores do que animais selvagens mutantes e talvez se depare com a própria fonte do desastre, o que não será nada fácil.
Em vez de níveis discretos, S.T.A.L.K.E.R. é composto por mapas que se conectam para formar um mundo contíguo. Começando perto da fronteira da Zona, você viajará por pântanos radioativos, bunkers subterrâneos, cidades fantasmas e muito mais, enquanto completa missões para os outros habitantes. Às vezes, isso significará encontrar um estoque de artefatos bizarros, e outras vezes, abater um bando de assassinos em seu esconderijo. Há muito o que fazer na Zona, mesmo sem uma missão específica, já que você pode saquear cadáveres, caçar estoques escondidos e localizar artefatos navegando pelas anomalias traiçoeiras que podem esmagá-lo, eletrocutá-lo ou mutilá-lo sem aviso prévio.
Tudo isso é realizado a partir de uma perspectiva em primeira pessoa, mas não espere a ação de correr, atirar e destruir tudo. O combate em S.T.A.L.K.E.R. é muito próprio, uma questão perpetuamente angustiante de intercalar entre coberturas, esvaziar carregadores para acertar apenas um tiro e disparar dezenas de balas em feras avassaladoras. As armas na Zona são imprecisas, difíceis de usar e aparentemente não causam dano até que você acerte um tiro na cabeça que mata instantaneamente. Imagino que seja mais parecido com tiroteios do mundo real do que qualquer um admitiria, mas isso não torna necessariamente divertido ser devorado vivo por cães selvagens que se esquivaram ou ignoraram uma dúzia de tiros.
Você vai querer evitar o combate o máximo possível, pelo menos no início, e felizmente há um sistema de furtividade robusto e eficaz para usar. Este sistema rastreia seu nível de luz, postura, ruídos produzidos e até fornece parafusos que você pode lançar para causar distrações (ou desencadear anomalias). Há uma ênfase bastante grande em atributos no geral, na verdade, seu personagem tem resistências a todos os tipos de ferimentos, bem como um nível de radiação para monitorar, seu inventário tem peso e condições a serem considerados, e cada NPC no jogo tem uma classific4 acharam útilVer na Steam - ▲ Recomenda17,5 h jogadas ao escrever16 fev. 2026

Esse jogo merece um remake!
Dos três STALKER clássicos, esse foi o único que realmente me prendeu do começo ao fim. A atmosfera da Zona continua absurda até hoje, alternando entre um FPS de sobrevivência e momentos que parecem puro jogo de terror ( SEM EXAGERO ).
A história, na minha opinião, é a melhor da trilogia. Tem várias reviravoltas, múltiplos finais e uma lore que só fica mais interessante conforme você avança.
A gameplay de forma geral ainda se segura bem, mas o maldito fire spread envelheceu igual leite. A precisão das armas do jogo é EXTREMAMENTE inconsistente, com um sistema RGN BIZARRO que muda sempre quando você troca de arma...
E não é à toa que praticamente todo mod de overhaul corrige isso.
Falando em mods, hoje é muito fácil instalar melhorias que corrigem bugs, modernizam mecânicas e deixam o gunplay muito melhor sem perder a essência original. Pra quem vai jogar em 2026, eu considero quase obrigatório.
Mesmo com a idade, Shadow of Chernobyl continua sendo um dos jogos com a atmosfera mais única que já joguei e, pra mim, ainda tem a melhor história da franquia.
Se um dia anunciarem um remake fiel ao original, eu compro no primeiro minuto.2 acharam útilVer na Steam

OG series got unlisted by GSC, and despite being the games from 2007-2010, the price was increased to be the same as the recently released "enhanced" edition, and that makes no sense.
Additionally, while the "enhanced" versions got the sale, the OG versions did not.
If you hate the old games because they include elements that go against your political views, GSC , then why not just remove these games from the sale? You're already making a clown of yourself by publishing "enhanced" versions upfront, unlisting great games that work perfectly fine on modern systems and not providing seasonal discounts for them.
You're the biggest disappointment, GSC Game World.
To you player, just pirate it, or buy an old CD. - ▼ Não recomenda3,2 h jogadas ao escrever6 jan. 2026Em inglês
I'm disappointed that these original ports have been delisted, the beauty of Stalker are these original versions and taking away the ability to play them is scummy.

So not only is it unlisted, but also increased to be the same as "enhanced" edition.
Making it unlisted is apparently the work 20 bucks per copy now or what?
Honestly, gaming is just getting more downhill when they think how they can make their previous entrys worse by doing shit like this.5 acharam útilVer na Steam - ▼ Não recomenda4,5 h jogadas ao escrever28 abr. 2026Em inglês
Cool atmosphere, game play feels awful though. Been told that to fix it you can just mod the game into oblivion but that feels like it defeats the purpose and I don't feel like doing that. Tried to look up just some simple "make gun shoot straight" type mods but they always come attached with it changing a billion other things and any conversation about it just degrades into old die hards saying that no actually the game is perfect and is supposed to suck and you'll get a good gun 30 hours in if you just keep save scumming through fights or some similar shit.

É um bom jogo, desafiador e gameplay interessante. Infelizmente contem alguns bugs e artefatos que podem atrapalhar, a história é interessante porem um pouco confusa e contem diversos finais que muitos deles podem ser decepcionantes, e quando você termina o jogo não continua mas acho que a proposta funciona. Pretendo jogar a franquia original inteira e, em seguida, rejogar nessas versões mais atualizadas. Tenho a impressão de que a versão "Enhanced" seja definitivamente superior às versões originais, devido aos bugs e coisas estranhas que já apareceram para mim.

Sinceramente? Para um jogo de 2007, isso daqui está muito a frente do seu tempo. Ainda mais se for considerar usar os MODS que tem. Muita coisa me lembra os jogos de extração mais realistas de hoje em dia. Não se essa versão é mais vendida, talvez na GOG sim, logo, vale muito a pena pagar menos que 10 reais para jogar esse game.
Eu joguei até a ultima fase com o mod Autumm Aurora 2 e foi uma experiência incrível, até o jogo crashar e não deixar eu avançar mais kkkk. Aí tive que voltar pro Vanilla e terminar por ele mesmo, que foi uma grande experiência também.
Se você gosta de um FPS mais pé no chão, com mecânicas de RPG, exploração e elementos de sobrevivência, pode dá uma chance para Shadow of Chernobyl.

| 28/03/2026 | Video games, or more so the people who play them, I suppose, have this annoying thing where they assign a genre name as an insult. I don't want to reignite the discourse around JRPG as a term, but it certainly was used in quite a derisive and othering manner in its earlier years. The term walking sim was used more as a point of ironic degradation, even though it was perfectly apt in many ways. Then there's Eurojank, a sort of real but not technically real genre that describes ambitious but imperfect games made by European developers.

| 06/03/2024 | Winter is a tough season, especially in the Zone. And even though some winter days felt like late March, stalkers are jubilant to welcome the advent of spring. The season when everything is new, the world refreshes, and the Zone is no exception. Curious mutants lurking through the grass searching for adventures, artefacts and anomalies are easier to spot. Seasoned veterans are ready to find what was left under the snow, some romantic stalkers are happy to see first flowers and traders are ready to welcome newcomers. Spring is a big deal to them, tons of rookies are looking to venture for a better life, and they need equipment, and food, and drinks, and, you can see where it goes. Most rookies go by the established route. Steam offers discounts up to 75% for classic S.T.A.L.K.E.R. games. But some future stalkers can venture into the unknown, that is console Zone, and try S.T.A.L.K.E.R. Legends of the Zone trilogy. S.T.A.L.K.E.R. world joins consoles, and you can try to survive and find your way with a gamepad. This route is branched into two separate entries, Xbox Store and PlayStation Store. It is up to you to choose one you prefer. |
| 02/08/2023 | Deadly anomalies, dangerous mutants, anarchists, bandits, free stalkers, players and partners are heartily invited to join us and play the demo of S.T.A.L.K.E.R. 2: Heart of Chornobyl at gamescom 2023 on 23-27 August.![]() |

| 06/06/2023 | Minor update in the renderers initialization sequence to address issue with freezing the game on computers powered by 12th Gen Intel® Core™ processors running on Windows 11. Patch affects only R2 render (Full Dynamic Lighting @ DirectX® 9). The reason behind this issue is the fact Intel dropped hardware support for DX9 in their integrated graphics cards found in 12th Gen (and upper) CPUs and discrete Arc GPUs. To support older games, emulation layer called D3D9On12 is used to translate DX9 API calls to DX12 at runtime. The game has somewhat complicated initialization which locked the emulator. To address the issue, initialization was simplified a bit to be more emulator friendly. Update, June 15 Thanks to the valuable patch feedback collected in this thread, we’re releasing a really tiny fix:

The nights that turn hunters to prey, or the Emission that gives you the only chance to survive by hiding as deep as possible? Together with our partners at Techland, we got you an option to add both the universes to your collection at once! The “Dying Light Definitive Edition + S.T.A.L.K.E.R.

| 23/03/2023 | Today, the oldest campfire in the Zone is burning, having been alight for 16 years. How many stalkers have come to bask in its warm glow, seeking respite from the terrifying adventures of the Zone? Countless. How many shadows have tried to extinguish it? Yet it still burns. Dozens of broken guitars, hundreds of stale bread loaves, and thousands of empty cans litter the campsite. Leftover sausages and energy drink cans... This fire heard so many stories! No stalker in the entire Zone knows them all, but the fire remembers each one. ![]() For 16 years, the Zone's campfire has been with us, since it was first lit in 2007, the day S.T.A.L.K.E.R.: Shadow of Chernobyl was released. Thanks to you, the fire still burns and welcomes stalkers, listens to legends, and helps us survive the dark and dangerous nights of the Zone. Thank you for joining these gatherings 16 years ago and writing legends with us. Happy 16th Anniversary of S.T.A.L.K.E.R.: Shadow of Chernobyl, Stalkers! |
| 28/02/2023 | Bright Emission illuminates the sky. Seems the Noosphere is proceeding that stalkers from Awaken Realms have discovered — something that will forever go down in the history of the Zone. Rumors say that these explorers are true masters of their craft and are ready to share some fruits of the expedition! Clues we've got: you'll need a squad of stalker mates, a safe shelter with one evening supply stock, and… a table. Perhaps a campfire for complete immersion. We guess the best chance to clear it out is on their stream that’s start right now: |
| 05/12/2022 | The last leaves drop down to the soil. Winter takes its toll, and the Zone gets covered with new, pure snow. The snow that will change its look but not the essence: strong, dangerous and a bit lonely. She keeps the memories about those times when the first stalkers did their first timid steps through the fences, ruins and anomalous puddles. Today those stalkers are hardy wolves, perhaps. And they are waiting for her next call. The call that they are promised to answer back by returning to Her, their home. If you desire to renew your ticket to Pripyat, follow the first stalkers steps and find your own path… Then GSC Game World birthday sale will give you an opportunity! From the 5th to the 12th of December, buy our games with a great discount and venture into this winter trip! Good winter hunting, stalker. |

Those who do not stand aside: tweet, show their support, correspond, offer help, take to the streets all around the world, donate money, participate in charity sales, join the ranks of volunteers, feed those who are starving, dismantle blockages, protect, treat, transport, rescue and never back down.

You are incredible. Do not stop! |
| 04/04/2022 | It has been more than a month since the war started in Ukraine. A painful and horribly long time. But in these exact moments, a genuine unity appears. These days, «Duty» with «Freedom» are standing shoulder to shoulder in a single row with militaries, protecting their motherland. Free volunteers are fetching incredibly rare stuff from the well-developed stashes network. Cossacks from Territorial Defence are consolidating to transform any little town into an impregnable Sich. And mages of the Internet are casting Empire-Annihilation spells to ensure our efficient informational support and helping the world to find the truth about the events. And to help these and many other Ukrainians, GSC Game World is starting a charity sale of its games. All the money gained will be transferred to the «Come back alive» fund, which saves Ukrainians' lives each day since 2014. The sale is active from the 4th to the 11th of April on Steam (S.T.A.L.K.E.R. trilogy only), GOG, HumbleBundle, Fanatical, Greenmangaming, GamersGate. It includes all the released games of our studio with up to 80% discount. While buying during this sale, you are helping to save lives! And don't forget that you can directly donate to the «Come back alive» fund. More information on the link: comebackalive.in.ua/donate |

| 04/05/2020 | Every other Monday, we give you a reason to dust off one of your old games and dive into its mods with Modder Superior . This time, Craig is creeping carefully through the Stalker series to bring you the best of the best. On every PC gaming forum, there’s a question that pops up without fail: “Now that I’ve completed Stalker , how should I replay it?” There’s clearly more than one answer to that. I’ve never known a game to be quite as autopsied by its own fans as the Stalker series (or, technically S.T.A.L.K.E.R., but who has the time). The three games – Shadow Of Chernobyl , Clear Sky and Call Of Pripyat – have all kinds of mods, and those mods have their own mods. On and on it goes. Every release has its own style, aided by the developer’s willingness to let modders use their assets and engine to a remarkable degree. (more…) |
| 14/12/2018 | I had a fine time with Mutant Year Zero: Road To Eden ‘s post-apocalyptic, ducking good blend of real-time stealth and turn-based combat, but one concern dogged me throughout. Used repeatedly throughout the game are two beyond-familiar terms: ‘zone’ and ‘Stalker.’ Names scorched into the very soul of anyone who’s played the S.T.A.L.K.E.R. games/seen Tarkovsky’s Stalker/read Roadside Picnic. How what why? I asked Mutant Year Zero’s developers to explain this anomaly. (And then I spent far too long researching the Swedish release dates of cult 1970s sci-fi). (more…) |
| 04/07/2018 | S.T.A.L.K.E.R. 2 is still years away so here’s a banquet of irradiated exploration and scavenging to tide you over. Dead Air is a standalone mega-mod (no purchase necessary) for bleak FPS sandbox series S.T.A.L.K.E.R . Built on top of the fan-upgraded OpenXRay engine and using Call of Chernobyl ‘s massive world map, it offers an uncompromising but accessible survival sandbox that looks good and runs better than any similarly huge S.T.A.L.K.E.R. mod out there.

| 16/05/2018 | Good news for fans of uncompromisingly bleak and incomparably atmospheric Eastern European sandbox shooters: an official S.T.A.L.K.E.R. sequel is on the way, original devs GSC Game World have confirmed. The less-good news is that we re all going to have to continue playing mods for the original games for a while yet. According to the announcement, the game isn t due until 2021. And for those itching to pass the time with the similarly-themed Metro Exodus , that s slipped to next year, according to a THQ financial report . (more…) |
| 27/12/2017 | We’ve previously covered Lost Alpha , a massive labor-of-love project to rebuild the original Shadow of Chernobyl from the ground up, reinstating concepts and content that never quite made the final cut. While the first release of Lost Alpha suffered nearly as badly from a messy development cycle as the original game, the updates have continued, and the massive patch released this week makes it a far more tempting prospect, whether or not you’ve played a S.T.A.L.K.E.R. game before.

Even in a film, TV show, gig or novel I’m hugely enjoying, my mind will at some point drift to the clock, wondering how soon until it ends, how soon until I can stand up or talk or check something or eat something or go somewhere. Awful, I know. Games, broadly, need me to be doing something most of the time, and that is the greatest weapon I have against a propensity to boredom that I am not at all proud of. This is also why I start to go spare in something like StarCraft II: Legacy of the Void, as it spends so much of its duration pummelling me with particularly low-grade passive storytelling, and my frustration that I have to watch this nonsense instead of do things for myself goes through the roof.</p> <p> … [<a href="http://www.rockpapershotgun.com/2015/12/26/5-reasons-why-i-play-games/">visit site to read more</a>]</p> |
| 02/10/2015 | <p><img src="http://www.rockpapershotgun.com/images/15/oct/books1.jpg" alt="" /></p> <p>Books! They’re like films without pictures, or games that are all cutscene. Old people and hipsters really like them, teenagers think they’re like totally lame, and quite frankly we should all read more of them. There are countless games inspired by books – most especially Tolkien, Lovecraft and early Dungeons & Dragon fiction – but surprisingly few games based directly on books. Even fewer good ones. </p> <p>Perhaps one of the reasons for that is that a game can, in theory, cleave closer to what a book does than a film can – with their length and their word counts, their dozens of characters and in some cases even their own in-game books, they can to some degree do the job of a novel. They don’t need to be based on books – and often they can do so much more, thanks to the great promise of non-linearity. Of course, the real reason for the dearth is that novels are so rarely the massive business a movie is these days. You might get a forlorn Hunger Games tie-in here and there, but suited people in gleaming office blocks just aren’t going to commission an adaptation of the latest Magnus Mills tale, more’s the pity. </p> <p>I suspect that, over time, we’ll see the non-corporate side of games development increasingly homage the written word, but for now, these ten games (and seven honourable mentions) are, as far as I’m concerned, the best, and most landmark, results of page-to-pixel adaptation to date.</p> <p> … [<a href="http://www.rockpapershotgun.com/2015/10/02/best-games-based-on-books/">visit site to read more</a>]</p> |
