It's good if your not the run and gun type. Some of the quests are buggy but they should get patched soon if they haven't already. I liked it, just didn't like it enough to get all the endings.
Yo just said something now I want it more XD
Ok, Cuz I've finished game (1 of about 5-7 endings, and My save is close to 2 other), I can describe it about:
-For first... The graphic, You got 3 MAIN modes...:
*Static Lightining - (For the oldest Computers, No good shadows at all... looks like Max Payne :P with better Textures)
*Objects and sth - Pretty good, Shadows Are pretty, and graphic too... Eat PC than Static
*Full Dynamic Lightining... - Hardcore for PC :D (Especially on Maximum Details...), But The shadows rulez ^^ (Best Ive ever seen for now)
-Gameplay, etc. ...
The surrounding enviroment, Old villages with some STALKERS (Its some kind of Local Resident) hiding from mutants and millitary units, or mercaneries and hazardous locations ^^ . Thunderstorms when You are in small city or in Prypat (City near Chernobyl, its deserted, go google for it ^^ ), When The smallest brick gonna make shadows, cant describe it correctly with my English knowledge, but... If You will try it, you gonna love that effect. Undergrounds... They are scary, though... When Hordes of Weird Mutated Humans are jumping like frogs on your neck, some kind of alien (mutant named Controller), wich control minds, can blow up your head (Extra effects - no blowing brain so far ;p , but anyway, they rule :D ). Weapons... hmm, when You gonna get your first Rifle with scope, game gonna be se easy... You can headshot without any problem (almost), but without it...oh man, maybe 1/1000 you gonna make headshot, shoting is very hard there... Huge Recoil.
Mutants running around, its fun to see Band of Blind Dogs hunting on some STALKERS traveling somewhere (they gonna run (on 5%) or fight with everything what they have (95% :P )). Also, when You gonna get Good Armor (there are 3 of "good" one)... Game gonna also be so easy (but not in SARCOPHAGUS - Chernobyl (The Powerplant) undergrounds...while there are So Great Armed Units (Humans, not mutated, soldiers or whatever).
Storyline:
Its a bit ...weird, especially the first and easiest ending ... It has almost nothing to the storyline (I think that...)... , But Ive found another one (gonna make it in few months, when I would like to come back to Stalker :P ) and heard about 4 -7 more endings, wich are hidden in-game.
Now, the bad things:
-Bugged , without patch... You gonna see some bugs, in names, in talking (text), sometimes when you will take a quest, few seconds later it gonna fail (thats sux :P )
-No Cars !!!!!!! Beta testers said, that the anomalyes (Blowing things, whirlwinds, Electrical area's ...and other) are so often, so driving a car was almost impossible... I dont care ! They should be there !
-Godly PC needed on max details... (so far, Mine Dual Core E6300 , Radeon x1950 Pro, 1 gb ram (Ya, I know, need more of em, but friend with same PC but with 3gb ram has same problem) has about 20 -30 fps at max, and there is so much of loading zones (not "Loading" text, but Little Floppy Disc image in right bottom corner, its almost always and lags hard - stops game for few seconds)
-GAME IS SO SHORT :((((( .
Again sorry for english :( .
