S.T.A.L.KE.R. is a survival horror first person shooter.
And I am tired of saying otherwise.

this shit isn't survival at all bruh

>>723066814 (OP)
Did you start playing Stalker with mods first or something?

Are there any games where you can shoot yourself in the head and die ?

>No horror
>Barely any survival after you loot your first point of interest
I'm sick of second worlders marketing their shitty games.

retarded faggots think survival means survival crafting.
the game is a survival horror as resident evil or silent hill.
zoomer b& kyselves

>>723066814 (OP)
no one who played it disagrees with you, if you're constantly saying otherwise is because you've been talking with baiters who never played the game

>Survival horror is a video game subgenre of action-adventure that emphasizes survival, tension, and suspense over action. It is characterized by a vulnerable player character, limited resources like ammunition, and puzzle-solving.

>>723067095
Those games have limited resources and save checkpoints

>>723067095
that's not what I think
It doesn't fit into any definition of survival lmao
>the game is a survival horror as resident evil or silent hill
delusional shooterfag

why is it so hard to aim in this game? the game is too hard for a noob like me

>>723066814 (OP)
ah yes, survival horror in x-10 with 30 spawned monolithians, pripyat with monolithans in windows ,cnpp with military helicopters and monolithians, sarcophagus with radiation and monolithians, decoder room with 40 monolithians in tight corridors and cnpp roofs with monolithians spawning from portals.

The franchise is the peak definition of a survival horror game, you start with nothing and only as you get significantly more powerful thanks to gear upgrades you will start fearing the game less and less.
Because that's the definition of a survival horror game.
The uncertainty in the beginning is given to you by the fact that you are undergeared, unexperienced and extremely vulnerable.
It doesn't mean jackshit that the MCC is full of deadly geared master ranked Monolithians, that's literally the last level in the fucking game you stupid fucking niggers.
Nothing else matters.
You're just a bunch of fucking zoomer tourists that have never played the games to begin with, and base your dogshit opinions over some lets play you have seen on youtube or the nth iteration of the ANALMEME TACTICOOL TARKOVIAN slop that passes as "genuine stalkan gameplay brooo trust me brooo".
Either you don't understand what Survival Horror means, or you are contrarian faggots and you should definitely kill yourselves.

>>723067539
just because it has many action moments (especially late game) doesn't mean there aren't any survival horror moments too (like most of the labs)
it's isn't STRICTLY survival horror since it's mostly an action game, but definitely takes from it
you didn't play the game if you think otherwise

It's FPS adventure

>>723067539
>>723068140
that just proves the game should've ended with x10
everything after that is just a glorified shooting gallery that plays drastically different from anything you've done in the game so far

>>723068105
No, the definition of a survival horror game is that it's about both survival and horror. Per Wikipedia,
>Although combat can be part of the gameplay, the player is made to feel less in control than in typical action games through limited ammunition or weapons, health, speed, and vision, or through various obstructions of the player's interaction with the game mechanics. The player is also challenged to find items that unlock the path to new areas and solve puzzles to proceed in the game.
The hobo-phase would have to last the entire game for any of the games to qualify. That's just not the case. Hell, Call of Pripshit spawns you fully kitted ready to rock and load.
GAMMA is more of a survival horror experience than any of the sovietware you are probably jerking off to with your ruSSian friends on /sg/.

>>723067095
no, i don't even play games with crafting and actively ignore them
stalker is not a survival game
resources are not finite
they're found every other crate
humanoids make up the majority of the enemies you fight, they all drop supplies
merchants with infinitely restocking supplies exist in multiple locations
you have access to quick saves and loads
you don't have to manage batteries or any other resource
you have a generous inventory to work with
you have power ups in the form of common collectibles scattered around the map
bleeding, radiation, hunger are quickly fixed and don't cause lasting damage
anomalies are mostly curios and not actually threatening especially once you acquire a decent suit
not even the hobo stage of stalker could qualify as survival horror as currently not having access to the ample supplies that exist in the world isn't survival, and it is neither horror, just atmospheric and being randomly startled by wandering mutants isn't really horror
no, wandering around in a dead city abandoned by its populace is not horror either
you even have an accurate world map that pings when threats are nearby
just because you feel unsettled in a few dark areas with creaky metal structures or because you installed epic hardcorez0r mods that make it so you have to wait 30 seconds between each medkit you consume doesn't mean the core game is survival horror

>>723068209
yeah the ending sections in the whole og trilogy are all shooting galeries and definitely the least interesting part of those games
they're still goated tho and there's a lot of kino all along despite that

>>723068403
You basically just described the entire game up until Radar when you turn off the br-

name 3

>stalker thread
>nothing but shitposting and people at each other's throats
Nothing ever fucking changes, eh?

>>723068446
I don't know if you know this about survival in the real world but the resources are not finite here either

all those apply for stalker tho it's an action game too and not just a survival horror
don't know why that's so hard to grasp for you retards, unless you never played the og games

>>723068105
you believe your fairy tales too much

for me, it's "hobo phase" in games where you scrounging for supplies

>>723066814 (OP)
i never liking this series. i prefer metro last light series. too bad redux is dogshit

>>723068526
nta but misery, call of misery, dead air,anomaly, gamma
technically all of them are just misery rehashes but the general analmeme community doesn't give a fuck and slurps it all down like the second coming of christ
