What Can We Do (STALKER 2: Heart of Chernobyl)

First, about what most of us cannot do:
1). We cannot help in the development of the game in technical terms (overwhelmingly)
2). Influence the situation, doing nothing but indignation and stating the facts with dejection.



What can WE DO, personally, now and in the short / long term:
1). To make it clear to the developers and all those involved in the situation that the STALKER series as such, and the next game STALKER 2, are definitely expected projects for us in their traditional format. This is an important and understandable point, assumed by default. This is OUR game, and it deserves a place to be in the future, without refined modifications and alien bells and whistles.

2). "To make it clear" is to bring a question up for broad discussion on forums, so that it can be heard and seen by those who should know it, who are monitoring the opinion of the gaming community and measuring their pulse, following the situation "on the ground." In this case, on a fairly large Russian game server PlayGround, the audience of which is quite reasonable to reckon with, since it constitutes a potential layer of real consumers of the gaming industry products.
Those. to indicate a clear position on this issue: The STALKER series and the next game STALKER 2 are OUR games that we need, and we need them in the traditional and familiar format that we are used to and for what we actually love them, as they are ... With all their atmosphere, entourage and immersion in the adventures of the world of the Zone. In such a peculiar and unrefined form. To do this, it is enough just to be sincere, making it clear, so that it would come down and be taken into account.
Is it cost-effective to ignore by all stakeholders, the opinions and expected sentiments of the public that the final product is ultimately aimed at - I think not.

3). Advance, theoretically, we can already offer a deal: Subject to the revival of the series in the form in which it was originally conceived, and for what it is actually valuable to us, we are already the ones who are going to purchase this product, as has always been the case with games of the STALKER series It is normal to buy what you expect, because you know what kind of product it is, even assuming its possible roughness - there is no limit to perfection ...)

4). It sounds corny, but you just need to believe that everything will work out, if you do not lose hope and do not lose heart. And remember that there are principles that are worth holding on to and supporting them, so that they themselves do not accidentally fall, having lost, albeit moral, but support at a difficult hour :)
Only together we are strength, and only each of us individually constitutes a part of it.
Do not stand on the sidelines, chewing dejectedly, make it clear that you have a business and you have an opinion, which, together with the opinions of others in total, has weight.
