Is the new S.T.A.L.K.E.R game worth it?

[-_-Edward Steward-_-]

I've seen some nice stuff about it. Is it worth buying?

Looks alright, from watching a mate play it, but I hear it runs like hot garbage if you don't have anything less than a supercomputer.

I have a supercomputer and it runs great and looks even better. The game has one of the most engaging stories I’ve played since 2018. It’s defo worth the play. Wouldn’t recommend playing unless you have at least a 40 series or 7000 series GPU and at least a new CPU from 2022 and forward. It’s rough on specs

Here’s my specs if you are trying to gauge what you might run it like https://pcpartpicker.com/list/MgJykf
I run 1440p native, at high. Usually 60-80 fps

I've finished the game, my computer is decent 7800x3d and a 3080 and it runs kinda poorly, I use medium settings at 3440x1440.

The story is good, the gunplay is fun, world is a bit empty, its a solid 7/10.

Yeah, older cards SUFFER from this game. Everyone I’ve talked to who has under the newest GPU lineup cannot run the game without DLSS or FSR

You can also buy game pass for 12 dollars or whatever currency and try it first before you buy it

It's not exactly old, its last generation lmfao, game is poorly optimised.

I wasn’t referring to yours, I was saying as a whole older cards run this poorly
