Chernobylite

I'm very interested in it. It's on my purchase list for when it next hits discounts.

It’s definitely on my to get list. Looks pretty cool.

Definitely interested, but I'll probably wait till it drops to 10 € or so.

Think I'll give this a go. Looks interesting. £19 Prime Deal at the moment.

Chernobylite


from Wiki:

Chernobylite is a survival horror RPG set in a sci-fi open world. Uncover the disturbing secrets of Chernobyl in a 3D-scanned recreation of the real Exclusion Zone.



from me:

Excellent game, do not usually play Resource management games (didn't realise this was actually one!) and I probably did myself a disservice by not playing on a harder difficulty, in as much as I never felt I was in that much peril, nor that my comrades were. If I had played on higher settings I would have been forced into making decisions that may have effected the camp and mission structure. Even with that I really enjoyed the story and gameplay loop. It is not Stalker though, so do not buy if you think that is what you are getting. It is more like a Fallout game.

Oh Yeah!

That does sound good actually.

Took the plunge for £16. Looking forward to giving it a go.

Singularity getting name dropped as well. Bloody love that game.

Must. Resist.

I really need to play this, managed to win a free PC copy around launch but only had the quickest of looks at it. Having been to the exclusion zone would probably add to the atmosphere too.

yep, also the metros come to mind...there's base-building then the missions are set in separate zones so it's not technically totally open-world

all i can say is i'm a big fan of the fallout series, the metros etc and i'm enjoying this very much

Just going through the opening. Is it quite stealth heavy all the way through? If so I’m probably going to struggle as I suck so bad at stealth games.

Its promising so far. Less clunky than I was expecting. There's an hours trial on Xbox if anyone's interested. Probably same on PS4/5 but not looked.

i'm shite at stalth as well - the only iffy bit was on the first level until i sussed out where to go...haven't needed to use stealth since...there are times when a cautious approach helps when exploring but you can quite happily twat them with firepower...

Another who's had this sitting on the hard drive after picking it up in the last Xmas sale. Suppose I'll have a look now everyone else is, and fired a few hours into it yesterday.

I think it's a bit more Tarkov inspired, like a solo lite-version: drop in an area, hoover up the resources, fight or not, and zip out when you feel like/completed objective. And it's kinda nice. I'm guessing the number of enemies are a bit thin in these early missions, only 2-3 at once, and I like the random traders and mini events/encounters I've stumbled into.

I'm already causing problems with my base (dingy, poor air quality) but sacrifices must be made in the pursuit of a stealthy crossbow, and I should've probably built lots of herb plots and armchairs instead...but crossbow. I'd also say the stealth takedown and sneaky upgrades for your fella Igor are all but essential to make the game feel more fluid, even if you're not aiming for a stealthy style, plus no worries about the psych meter dropping out too quick.
I'd definitely remember to make a lockpick or two before heading out on a mission too, as every locale has had at least one opportunity to use one so far.

So yep, definitely enjoying it, and just have to work out how to reach a hidden area on one of the areas that has a shotgun and goodies some 30m underground, thanks scanner.
