User Rating: 8 | S.T.A.L.K.E.R.: Clear Sky PC
Clear Sky is immersive and has engaging and realistic combat. Having superior weapons and armor in battles can give you a significant advantage of less equipped enemies. The environment in vast and creative giving a rewarding experience to those who trek through the Zone. My biggest concern in the monetary system. The buy to sell rate is vastly unbalanced, with items selling at almost 1/10 at what you can buy them for. The upgrading system is very expensive. It's usually not worth it to enhance an item unless you are going to keep it for nearly the entire game. Some of the weapons such as the RPG, heavy machine gun, grenade launcher, and others, are not used till the very last level. Finding artifacts is much more difficult and unfortunately, you end up selling them instead of using them because you will find yourself so desperate for cash. The environment remains rich and creepy. Unfortunately, there are not as many frightening moments as the previous game. The new fast travel system, for lack of better words, sucks, because it's once again too expensive and just not worth it to use. I played the 1.5.04 version which cleans up practically all the bugs and crashes, but there needs to be some patches to fix some balance issues. (i.e. money, artifacts). Even with all this criticism, Stalker: Clear Sky is a good game with some fatal flaw, in which those flaws can be fixed with a couple of patches.
