But most likely some sales suits and/or Microsoft (or whover has stakes and influence in it) didn't because they saw christmas business approach and a lot of people looking to upgrade their systems at the moment. Even if they claimed otherwise. I would be surprised if there wasn't some corporate wankery at the root of it. As it always is.

Now all I need is a PC that can handle it properly. Haven't read any reviews yet but I guess giving them some extra time to iron out the kinks is a not a bad idea anyway. Especially looking at you, Stalker 1, but also pretty much everything else that has been released those past few years.
Edit: Yep, seems to be very buggy still. Not surprised, not overly afraid.
Edit 2: Hm, signficant design-related criticism too. Still hopeful. They say it has mod-support.
Edit 3: History Repeating

That looked exactly like the base camp from Stalker at 1:10 min.

Are there other uncompromisingly bleak and incomparably atmospheric Eastern European sandbox shooters or is this just badly worded?
Probably not but I'm a fan of that genre anyway.
The author may be or may not be referring to Survarium, Escape from Tarkov or DayZ though.

It's not much but I'm happy to hear it!
Good news for fans of uncompromisingly bleak and incomparably atmospheric Eastern European sandbox shooters: an official S.T.A.L.K.E.R. sequel is on the way, original devs GSC Game World have confirmed.
The less-good news is that we’re all going to have to continue playing mods for the original games for a while yet. According to the announcement, the game isn’t due until 2021.
It's not much but I'm happy to hear it!
