@tomographic or whomever can answer technically speaking; would it not to be beneficial to use the "depth of field" setting in the game to cheeze the RUclips bit rate issue? Would it not blur far objects for the viewer, saving some bit rate for the texturing on up close objects that we see ? I figure since the foliage and such across the board is blurier on our end, far away being significantly so, when compaired to the native gameplay would it help the overall viewing quality when watching on even 1440p for the depth of field to be adjusted? Genuine question, not a groan or criticism, very niche technical stuff I haven't deep dived into before but it may be beneficial if I understand it right? 🤷♂️
Your campaign ending was completely different to others I've seen (spoiler alert...)... No idea what you did wrong to end up as a zombie! Haha. But that's amazing that you can replay the campaign, making completely opposite decisions and see how it ends. Likewise, how you can invest 40 hours into a campaign, complete it and then say "right, let's go back and play the other 50 hours of missions we missed...". Bonkers. It's game of the year for me. I understand the lack of optimisation and a few bugs are a problem for some especially with 'lesser' systems but the game doesn't feel 'unfinished' so I don't feel cheated or conned by it being released in this state. Just a shame not everyone can enjoy it fully yet, but when they can it's going to have a massive cult following. Appreciate you putting so much time into it, Tom. Really enjoyed the streams!
I really feel like this spaz 12 should hit harder. After you want it I was kind of disappointed after seeing it take 5 shots on a snork guy. I just feel like it should hit harder. Especially after what you had to do to get it
I've only watched about 2-3 hours of the lives every day but that has been awesome! Insane game and really good following you on this! Jackfrag video's playing it afterward was a bit painful to watch tho. 🤣
Glad I watched your playthrough. Finally bought the game. Had played the originals and Anomaly for years. But after about 10 hours.... the lack of the A-Life became so apparent that the way the NPCs were spawned in, the dogs... how they are more like spawning sprites... clipping through walls, invisible but you can hear them 6' below barking as they travel below. The arcade spawning mechanics that have replaced A-Life... is so bad I couldn't continue with playing the game. It is not Stalker, but a arcade version of what it used to be.
I'm fairly certain a lot of you d visions are based on actions and not just dialogue selections. You also have multiple ways to complete some missions, with different options depending on, for example, who you are going to give some found item to. Giving the item to one ba the other is a decision that can change the game. A good example is the special scanner you received that shuts down anomalies in the area. The people you have that too wanted to lock that ability down completely and you have them control or the one thing that could do that -thereby making a major in-game decision
the amount of times this game got restarted to get to main menu, or crashed, in a live stream, might be unique, if not, a record for a game at its ?Expectancy and price.
For now, yes. I'll potentially go live with modded content in the future and when new DLC / expansions are added but I complete the main story in this stream.
well considering the campaign was said to be 30-40 hours in length by the devs and me now being at 98 hours playtime, I'd say I definitely took my time to smell the roses before crossing the finish line 😂
Ok So, after watching this play through i can say without any doubts that: AAA studios can go suck a bag of glizzie's, for they are FAR from getting to this level of both gameplay story and overall environmental effects, this team rocks the socks off any "AAA" slop published thus far.
Your stamina was draining so fast because you had the weird bold equipped when it was depleted. There are negatives aspects to every artifact besides the radio protect ones. This is painful to watch, why were you so adamant about having a depleted artifact equipped? You were screwing yourself so bad.
Thanks for the support on these Stalker 2 livestreams. It's been real.
U live today m8

Bro, the red bolt is what killed your stamina. When it's not charged, it drains your stamina.
3:07:10 is where the endgame cutscene starts. Thank you so much for the playthrough it was fun.
What a week.. Thanks for the entertainment Tommo, can't wait to be back in Prypiat when the dlcs start landing.
" 50 thousand people used to live here, now It's a ghost town" & the music brings me back to the COD MW II days ~ lol

@@paulhancock It’s the ending you get for siding with scar 👍
The CoD music when you started going through the building was Amazing
The shotgun you had with the magazine. Hit harder i think. But the saiga shotgun is the best i believe. I watched stodeh fall in love with it lololol

That COD4 music hit me right in the feels. 😮😢

I enjoyed watching for 2 days hahaha... thank you.
That was fun! I had to play catch up but it was fun! I would love a last stream with farming artifacts and upgrades to see full end game
Exact same ending as me, good shit, Tom.
Lmao I refuse to believe you didn't hear Richter's neck snap bro😢

the a life isnt supposed to work like that in the game... either the developers will fix it or there will be mods for that..
I wish someone would have told him that the *uncharged* red bolt is what was killing his stamina.
Its was a good adventure, i already miss it
absolute jefe content here Tomo! Wouldn't consider doing a modded playthrough as well?
3:23:24 to skip ending spoilers

I needed a cigarette after that ;-)
I crashed out 😅 just watched the end of the stream, wow
i'm really kinda dissapointed that you haven't eaten a lot of glizzies at the end...

The one weird nut to rule them all. Tomographic, The Lord of the Weird Nuts.
😳
It's that stupid red bolt!! When it's not charged it kills you stamina!!

For now, yes. I'll potentially go live with modded content in the future and when new DLC / expansions are added but I complete the main story in this stream.

On Ps5 i find stalker ,looks the same!is it!?
2:06:30
Hey Tom,
Bring some LOOT next time!
You weren't trying to rush it? Had me fooled.
well considering the campaign was said to be 30-40 hours in length by the devs and me now being at 98 hours playtime, I'd say I definitely took my time to smell the roses before crossing the finish line 😂

If i wanna experience STALKER...should i play the 1st one...oh 1st time pc gamer :D
you don't need to play the first to understand the second whatsoever but it's entirely up to you.
No you don't, but I would.
Also this one does not FEEL like true Stalker, it's lost much of it's "soul" sadly :(
can't you swim?
why u have to eat and drink every minute
You live today m8

Тупое поведение противников в бою😭. Эта игра - это полный провал😭. Только бесконечная возня с вещами и аптечками.😵💫
Seriously?lol the best game 24,25 years
@Alex2602l если она ничем не отличается от предыдущей версий, кроме графики, то чем она лучшая 24,25 года? Сюжетом? сомневаюсь... Я непонимаю этого.
