Oh man I'm just about done Roadside Picnic It's pretty good and I like it But for it's length I feel like a fool for buying it full price
The experience isn't over after the book. There's a movie called Stalker, loosely based off of it, and of course, the STALKER video game series, mixing the setting of Roadside Picnic with the real life CNPP disaster. Last I checked, the movie Stalker was distributed free through Google Video.
Additionally, GSC Gameworld is now a dead company, so it's okay to pirate the STALKER series if you're okay with piracy. The money would only be going to Ubisoft and Steam, not the devs.
What do you take me for Sothe? NOT a Stalker? I finished SOC a while ago, still going through Clear Sky and then I watched through most of Stalker recently, still not done because it's in 3 parts and I've only watched 2 Wasn't aware that it has free distribution, I'll check that out Great games though, I bought Roadside Picnic to really learn about the origins, being as STALKER is about Chernobyl and Roadside Picnic is about aliens and America
Redrick is also my new favourite name

Huh, it appears that with the release of their newer stuff, Turtle Beach's older stuff has moved into "Worth the money being put into it" range.
Picked up a pair of the P11 headset, pretty good audio quality, loud as ♥♥♥♥ if you want it to be, minimal static.
Turns out Turtle Beach is only ♥♥♥♥ when you're paying 200$ for something worth 50$.

Awesome, more STALKERbros. You'll love CoP, it's generally considered an evolved version of Clear Sky in terms of gameplay.

Clear Sky was godawful, the rest are super balling and I can't wait for MISERY 2.0 for CoP.

Never been a fan of Misery, myself. I like SMRTER. It adds so many Monolith, the game would feels lifeless without them. And is anyone really surprised that everyone on this forum is a fan of STALKER?

Well, it's not that I can't make friends, because its quite the opposite. However I do get bored of people very quickly, so the effort which it takes for me to act interested in them is far more profound than the stimulus that entails form being in their company.
This is exactly how I felt a little over a year ago. I really hope it works for you.
That avatar makes a feel a bit better, Contrary. But all the same, still pretty sad that I don't see that kind of expression in person.

Well, it's not like I'm completely shutoff from the world, since I do have a girlfriend and we see each other quite a bit. I guess I'm just selfish and adopted a "I have nothing to gain from you" kind of mentality when it comes to people.
