If you're going to play Stalker at least start with the base games.
Anomaly and its offshoots and modpacks is a game that is closer to Tarkov autism than what Stalker is about. It's more about survival, maintaining equipment and "hard for the sake of hard' mechanics., and asking if there's a way to alleviate these mechanics from their shitcord will literally get you banned because you "don't get it".
Granted it's fun if you like that stuff, but it's not what Stalker is about. Play SoC or at the very least Pripyat to know if you'll even like it.
