insane_42: i do miss kf1's bigger maps vs kf2
 DigitalSeahorse: how huge is KF3?
insane_42: different feel for sure
  TXC2: could we buy one in Rostock? or are we broke still?

 wifi12345678910: There's plenty of holes to fall down, he'd be right at home
 Didero:     
 matthaus_c: James might like the modpacks that take a ton of ideas from Tarkov
 James_LRR: I've thought about it.
 James_LRR: Frankly, had you not done this PiF, I might have.
TeodorantZMX: I have never played this game , but I wanna try it after elden ring, since the game reminds me of my country of serbia
 James_LRR: As I think that would be the only way to get me to actually play and beat the game.
TeodorantZMX: actually I think I might've convinced myself to get into modding this game, since my country had a near nuclear incident , that got turned into a hit movie
TeodorantZMX: my family has russian tenants, and my parents mind was blown when i mentioned roadside picnic and it turned out our tenants had read it
Boiler_bot: Surprise third party!
 DigitalSeahorse: @TeodorantZMX what's the movie called?
  TXC2: monolith?
Critterbot: Getting cooked.
 wifi12345678910: Patrolling the Zone almost makes you wish for a nuclear winter.
 DigitalSeahorse: oh blue sky
TeodorantZMX: @DigitalSeahorse Guardians of the Formula / Cuvari formule
  TXC2: wifi12345678910  I could hear that 
Boiler_bot: I like the neat camo on the rifle.
TeodorantZMX: it was a joint Serbian French production
TeodorantZMX: that reminds me I need to get my dad to watch stalker the movie with me
rammfan9423: @loadingreadyrun Alex yours and Grahams Skieal video is coming up a lot lately. Have you seen the Mt Dew Baja Blast super bowl commercial?
 matthaus_c: it's my favourite movie where absolutely nothing happens
 wifi12345678910: I found it on youtube with subtitles
TeodorantZMX: I made my dad watch dune and he loved it
Metric_Furlong: also if you haven't read Roadside Picnic you should, because it also rules
 matthaus_c: @wifi12345678910 the Mosfilm YT channel is such a treasure
rammfan9423: You need to watch it with Graham
 wifi12345678910: @TeodorantZMX which one?
TeodorantZMX: the new ones and the show
 DigitalSeahorse: @TeodorantZMX thanks
TeodorantZMX: i already work but I went back to college to get a degree for immigration purposes, and I watched the 2 alien movies with some of my fellow classmates during the blockade
TeodorantZMX: they enjoyed it
 Gaelan_Maestro: could it be underground?
TeodorantZMX: and the factoids that I got from watching the LRR alien content
Metric_Furlong: one of the members of a book club I'm in didn't know Dune was a novel
 DigitalSeahorse: *makes note to remind Alex to look for the movie*
 wifi12345678910: it flew past your head lol
TeodorantZMX: I don't know if the movie is dubbed and or subbed
  TXC2: 
 Didero: O R B
rammfan9423:      
TeodorantZMX: actually a really dank sci fi movie I would love to see alex react to is a serbian sci fi movie named technotise edit and I
 alchemistsavant: ponder this orb to endure hardships
TeodorantZMX: because I feel a certain piece of media stole the main theme
TeodorantZMX: from that movie
TeodorantZMX: what is the name of the movie , i wanna google it
TeodorantZMX: ane dize dize?
 alchemistsavant: I legitimately thought you were going to say "ane deez nuts"
 wifi12345678910: snork? or Bloodsucker?
rammfan9423: There's a German tv series on Netflix called Dark. It's an interesting story. There's sci-fi events revolved around a power plant and time travel.
TeodorantZMX: o yeah I just remembered that in Dune, cannonically the fremen are serbs
TeodorantZMX: since in the first book paul and his mom find serbian cave graffiti
  TXC2: why not both, together, in holy matrimony? 
TeodorantZMX: i used this factoid to troll my dad and he laughed alot because of it
 wifi12345678910: you've already been here sheltering from a blowout I think
TeodorantZMX: is this game a remake or sequel to stalker1?
  TXC2: it's a sequal
Boiler_bot: lol did that guy roll his eyes?
 DigitalSeahorse: https://www.imdb.com/title/tt20365920/
 DigitalSeahorse: looks like it does have subs at least
 wifi12345678910: "good shit" *has only one sausage*
 matthaus_c: fun fact, GSC was working on Stalker 2 and X-Ray 2 projects when they went bankrupt 
Zu_o: @wifi12345678910 Game review: "I could only make summer sausage and I really wanted a bratwurst today, 2/10"
rammfan9423: There's a Chernobyl zombie game called Chernobylite.
  TXC2: Zu_o  sequel to my summer car, my summer sausage
 matthaus_c: chernobylite getting a sequel surprised me, I feel like I'd only heard lukewarm and negative things about the first game
Zu_o: @TXC2 sounds like another dad dating sim
  TXC2: Zu_o  
 ArmondoSC: and this is the guy who buys broken guns right?
  TXC2: ArmondoSC  I thought that guy was in Rostok?
 ArmondoSC: oh right
 Mathanwitch: broken guns guy is at Rostok
 ArmondoSC: i knew someone did
 Mathanwitch: and even Ragman does not buy broken broken guns. they need to have nonzero durability
 Mathanwitch: even if red
 wifi12345678910: Did we find what happened to Beard after he wasn't at his shop station?
  TXC2: wifi12345678910  not that I recall from the VOD
 mostly_minerals: He's fine. Just having some wall staring time.
 wifi12345678910: Also, does anyone else think Ragman looks like Hamster but bald?
 mostly_minerals: We found Beard again in another location right?
  TXC2: wifi12345678910  it's the cheeks isn't it?
 mostly_minerals: A boat or something??
 wifi12345678910: @TXC2 cheeks and the same mustache and the same slightly dead inside but happy eyes
 Mathanwitch: green means you should have better prices now. especially for repair and fast travel
 Mathanwitch: and it can be further improved. I managed to get free fast travel at Rostok at one point
 Mathanwitch: help out a faction, don't kill them. heal them in the field etc
 Mathanwitch: side quests count too
 ArmondoSC: i bet its also cause you did all the arena missions
Lysander_salamander: Oh I didn't know there was faction reputation in this game
Critterbot: This thing is basically a modernized M1 Garand, right?
  TXC2: Critterbot  it's more of a M14
 ArmondoSC: does it still plink when you empty it?
  TXC2: ArmondoSC  sadly no
 QuixoticScrivener: gotta put rails on everything, how else do you gadgetize?
 ArmondoSC: 
 wifi12345678910: Shameful, how could they remove the best feature
Zu_o: you install a bunch of wildly functioning internal widgets and doodads that activate on voice command @QuixoticScrivener ?
Zu_o: Go Go Gadget underrail grenade launcher!
   Anubis169: Meow... 
  TXC2: hai Anubis169
   Anubis169: Nobody light a match...
Critterbot: Okay, who beefed?
 wifi12345678910: I think you needed some sort of key for the place with the burers
 DigitalSeahorse: well poo
 QuixoticScrivener: Golgotha?
  TXC2: we went north around it last time, so going south will be new
 alchemistsavant: I was hungry. That's why they keep disappearing.
rabbitgta: Recycling, yay?
  TXC2: that's gonna be some spicy steel 
 QuixoticScrivener: and it’s only a little radioactive
 DigitalSeahorse: "burried"
 wifi12345678910: Nooo, rip little robot 
  TXC2: the propaganda number
 QuixoticScrivener: parkour!
 alchemistsavant: "This better be worth it" has got to be *the* tagline of this series.
 TheMerricat: I can tell I'm still waking up today, I've been watching the stream the entire time. It's just now occurred to me that the clicking I'm hearing is not my hard drives going crazy but the geiger counter in the game.
 DigitalSeahorse: woop
 QuixoticScrivener: more parkour!
 LordZarano: Now THIS is hardcore parkour
   Anubis169: So this is where all the crashed Desert Busses end up
 mostly_minerals: @themerricat oh no ll

Lysander_salamander: forgot there was a guitar minigame
 DigitalSeahorse: I remember a little cubbyhole in some rubble from a previous STALKER game counting
 mostly_minerals: This is the most human and adorable addition to the game
Genie_M: Still the best function
 DigitalSeahorse: hehe
Lysander_salamander: Too bad we don't get little things like, other stalkers running to find shelter and them having chats while waiting it out.
shushu2539: he's playing with gloves. amazing
ConvergingMinds: I love it when games give you instruments to play. As someone who played both piano and acoustic guitar, I get fun out of it
 tknomncr: insert obligatory request for freebird here

 LordZarano: !findquote toy
  LRRbot: Quote #1529: "We just used fireplace bellows to inflate Prancer, the inflatable reindeer and totally not sex toy." —Graham [2015-03-27]
 ArmondoSC: i love those things
 wifi12345678910: No, one of them is used for a quest
 ArmondoSC: i quote them all the time to my friends
Critterbot: Final Fantasy VII Rebirth, that is.
 BusTed: fire in the hole
 DigitalSeahorse: "Go left 15 seconds ago."
 mostly_minerals: KEKW
   Anubis169: that's one way to open a chest
 wifi12345678910: Kill it!
  TXC2: BURN IT!
 DigitalSeahorse: cute
 ScrapyardGhostTrain: You can trade one of them to the crows for something, I think.
 tknomncr: that thing is definitely cursed
  TXC2: 40000% that contains a deamon
   Anubis169: x_x
   Anubis169: THat sounds like it's big
 BusTed: That is quite the pack
 ArmondoSC: psy dog!
 DigitalSeahorse: 
   Anubis169: oh great, psy dog
Lysander_salamander: drat
shushu2539: ghost wolf
 DigitalSeahorse: noop
 BusTed: At least they can't use ladders
 BusTed: haha
Lysander_salamander: wow that's more than I was expecting
 DigitalSeahorse: so many dags
  TXC2: my advice is run like Usian Bolt 
   Anubis169: "fuck this shit" <-- the zone in a nutshell
 wifi12345678910: @DigitalSeahorse It's just the one dog, actually
   Anubis169: When in doubt, 'nade out 
 DigitalSeahorse: they like spinning the dolly
 TheAwkes: I just wish the real dog had just a slightly better tell than not disappearing when shot.
rabbitgta: That dolly is 100% waddling away
Lysander_salamander: too bad you can't toss sausages at them to distract them
 mostly_minerals: Just don't look back
 tyrsredritehand: Tape grenade to sausage.
  TXC2: the better part of valour
 DigitalSeahorse: brrrrrrrrrrrrrrr
 wifi12345678910: @Lysander_salamander it's because you, yourself, are the sausage
Lysander_salamander: yum
ConvergingMinds: That was definitely a large pack of them. I think there was at least a dozen of them?
 ArmondoSC: that quick save didnot take
NovaSpecter: @tyrsredritehand that's great
  Juliamon: ConvergingMinds One dog creating a dozen ghost dogs
   Anubis169: well the thing is technically there's only one of them
   Anubis169: only one is the real one, but they all damage you
 DigitalSeahorse: ah
 matthaus_c: pray you never fight 2 Psydogs at once
Genie_M: The arena fight was really painful against it
ConvergingMinds: Good to know, but props to making them all look similar
Lysander_salamander: they actively avoid the anomalies instead?
  Juliamon: the dogs that poof into blue sparks are the ghosts
 mostly_minerals: I see why you don't want to be out in the dark in this game
 tyrsredritehand: Confetti.
BrindleBoar: but he's so hungry
   Anubis169: it must be super peckish
 Izandai: @ConvergingMinds It's just the same model.
 wifi12345678910: bring the dogs to the bandits maybe?
Lysander_salamander: would be neat if you could lead monsters into anomalies, but it seems like they avoid them?
 ArmondoSC: that sounds big
 matthaus_c: some of them avoid them
 matthaus_c: Fleshes are dumb as bricks
 DigitalSeahorse: the piggus will go into anomalies
  TXC2: Dogs are smarter then people
BrindleBoar: incoming shitshow
   Anubis169: 💡 idea
 mostly_minerals: 
Lysander_salamander: nice
   Anubis169: Alex you amazing genius
 DigitalSeahorse: haha!
 tyrsredritehand: Good dogo
  TXC2: outstanding manoeuvrer
 BusTed: well played
 wifi12345678910: @matthaus_c I think we got a bloodsucker to go into some anomalies
 DigitalSeahorse: xD
   Anubis169: 
 DigitalSeahorse: hehehhehehhe
  Juliamon: I love how often this game lets you solve one problem with a different one
 DigitalSeahorse: 
 ArmondoSC: welp, when life gives you psy dogs, make bandits... yeah this is falling apart
 tyrsredritehand: All according to kekaku
 wifi12345678910: and one snork got yeeted by a gravity thing
   Anubis169: 
 TheAinMAP: 
  TXC2: money that takes us back to Rostok
 mostly_minerals: Good doggo
 DigitalSeahorse: yes, good doggo
   Anubis169: it feels tingly down here
 ScrapyardGhostTrain: No, pseudodogs are incapable of being good.
 matthaus_c: @wifi12345678910 they will also sometimes go in the vortex anomalies and get turned into paste, so maybe the awareness system has some real depth
 DigitalSeahorse: good time to save
 DigitalSeahorse: 
  TXC2: always respect the enemy
   Anubis169: The enemy of my enemy, is useful
 mostly_minerals: Um buddy
Invitare: hmmm warehouses aren't supposed to do that
  TXC2: drinking vodka while bleeding, should be fine
 Izandai: If your mouth is feeling your gun, you're doing something wrong.
 DigitalSeahorse: "Exceptional mouth feel."
   Anubis169: Little jimmy with his head in the sky, is the first poor sod that's soon gonna die.
  TXC2: also that bandit was sniping with a shotgun 
ConvergingMinds: These bandits aint playing around. yeesh
   Anubis169: Please never say that phrase again 
  TXC2: look Germany has a LOT of surplus to get rid of ok 
 DigitalSeahorse: maybe they're locking up the dags too
Invitare: not enough
 DigitalSeahorse: which would be silly
 DigitalSeahorse: the dupes would all be outside the cage even if the real one was inside
   Anubis169: 
 DigitalSeahorse: lol
 NorthstarTex: Looks like I need to catch up on some vods, but new DMR, which one is it?
   Anubis169: Ruuuuuun
  TXC2: NorthstarTex  EBR that Alex got awhile ago
 DigitalSeahorse: angry anomaly
 DigitalSeahorse: oh
 DigitalSeahorse: ow
 wifi12345678910: what was that?
 QuixoticScrivener: and not in the fun way
   Anubis169: once
Critterbot: Y-yeah, sure.
 DigitalSeahorse: nope
   Anubis169: which is all you ever get
  TXC2: pills vodka and radition, a healthy, glowing mix
BrindleBoar: @wifi12345678910 shaped like a fren
   Anubis169: is that a goliath?
  TXC2: pseudogiant
 DigitalSeahorse: 
Invitare: it's very unpleasant
Genie_M: Thingy
 DigitalSeahorse: he's a troll
  TXC2: I was gonna say it's too fast for a pseudogiant
 matthaus_c: tbh everyone has psy powers now
 ProcyonFlynn: Bigfoot?
 ArmondoSC: yet!
Invitare: go dive in a vat of nuclear waste or something I guess
 matthaus_c: maybe those ghosts that keep attacking you are your psy powers 
 DigitalSeahorse: a ripped bulky troll with short hair
  TXC2: "we made a Psuedogiant and a burer fuck" "for the love of the Gods why?" "we were drunk"
 DigitalSeahorse: it can climb!
 TheAinMAP: 
 matthaus_c: @TXC2 that's some Freedom bullshit right there
 Natimus_Prime: You have the psychic ability to heal from bullet wounds instantly, which seems pretty useful
  TXC2: matthaus_c  right?
 QuixoticScrivener: a divine pathing
 BusTed: Not even staggered
 Natimus_Prime: Shredder!  Build me a body!
  TXC2: "Shredder! my body!"
Genie_M: Nice troll
 DigitalSeahorse: also with a tail
ConvergingMinds: When the enemy ai tells him no narrow doorways. love it
 DigitalSeahorse: don't feed this lizard after midnight
 QuixoticScrivener: but that was a lot of ammo
BrindleBoar: @DigitalSeahorse they're legs
   Anubis169: and it's still tickin'
 DigitalSeahorse: a stubby third leg?
 wifi12345678910: Why did the bandits have one in a cage?
  TXC2: well you wouldn't want it roaming free
 DigitalSeahorse: oh there's a foot on the side of that tail!
 QuixoticScrivener: maybe the health resets when it leashes?
 QuixoticScrivener: does this game do that
Genie_M: These firecrackers are not really scary
 ArmondoSC: @QuixoticScrivener god i hope not
 PsychoI3oy: ooh you got a Sega
Lysander_salamander: yay
 BusTed: 
 DigitalSeahorse: wow
 ArmondoSC: hah
 NorthstarTex: got em!
  TXC2:   
 DigitalSeahorse: fuzzy
BrindleBoar: I choose not to
  TXC2: like wet pig
 DigitalSeahorse: was he
Lysander_salamander: too bad we can't grill it
 ArmondoSC: and were completely out of ammo
 DigitalSeahorse: wasn't quite a worm
 wifi12345678910: Oh is this related to the rat with the collar?
  TXC2: the longest of long pork
 DigitalSeahorse:      
   Anubis169: it probably smells like that that one guy in the gym who hasn't showered before coming back
 QuixoticScrivener: so wasteful, eating exactly two bites, finish that can!
 tknomncr: the jiggle on that tushonka is a nice touch
 BusTed: Apparently it was easier to contain than to kill
  TXC2: BusTed  Valid really
DoodlestheGreat: !break

 PsychoI3oy: Meat Chunk is back, IN POG FORM
eNDiKay_: Alex, I'm new to STALKER, but when a quest tells me to get into a hidden lab, and its in a base full of friendly NPCs (until I tresspass that is...). Can I finish it without killing anyone??
 matthaus_c: yeah, if you're looking for it you see them repeating all over
eNDiKay_: No its for 2
   Anubis169: this one?
eNDiKay_: When you get the first key to get north of the initial safe town
eNDiKay_: To reddit!
  TXC2: Skif dude hold your breath when you run

 DigitalSeahorse: floating bucket light

  TXC2: seems picked clean to me
 matthaus_c: Veles, it's called the Veles 
  TXC2: Svarog was the unique detector from CoP
 matthaus_c: yea, and that was just a fancy Veles
 wifi12345678910: Were you able to get into the mobile research lab thingy?
 matthaus_c: Night Vision modders are gonna have a hell of a time trying to make the Veles remotely usable with NVGs

 TheDevil_Risen: also I was rude and didnt say Hey, so Hey Alex and Chat 
 DigitalSeahorse: unless they're progress erasing bugs
 calculated_uncertainties: It's like a bethesda game, they're not glitches, they're features!
 TheDevil_Risen: @Stoopler yeah
  TXC2: hello TheDevil_Risen  welcome
ConvergingMinds: If a game like this has jank? That’s all part of the intended design
Critterbot: It wouldn't feel like Stalker without a certain amount of eurojank.
 DigitalSeahorse: poor monkey
BrindleBoar: the player having to improvise their way around bugs is a pillar of the slavjank genre
 DigitalSeahorse: oh it was a rat
 TheDevil_Risen: @TXC2 
Stoopler: you just have to view them not as bugs but instead unintended features
   Anubis169: was there enough left to bury?
 ScrapyardGhostTrain: Not much left to bury.
BrindleBoar: something something excessive force
  TXC2: so that rabbit became a paste then? 
 matthaus_c: some species of coyote
wholsometiger: There is no such thing as overkill.
 tyrsredritehand: like a .22
Boiler_bot: Oh yeah, doesn't Alex have a Mosin irl? And a musket?
 DigitalSeahorse: 
 ArmondoSC: an honorable way to disintergrate
 HorusFive: Different from bird-shot?
Stoopler: it became physics
   Anubis169: Any round is a varmint round if you have a big enough mop
 DigitalSeahorse: bnuysol
 matthaus_c: minimum varmint round in the zone is like, 5.56x39
 matthaus_c: 5.45*
  TXC2: HorusFive  yes and not, varmit rounds just tend to be smaller and thus have less shot total
 DigitalSeahorse: my leg is sore
   Anubis169: urgh
Stoopler: @TXC2 so i "shouldnt" hunt squirrels with buckshot?
  TXC2: Stoopler  not unless you need to kill 3 of them with one shot 
 DigitalSeahorse: how many guns you got atm?
Boiler_bot: Ooh, swiss! They make some quality stuff generally.
   Anubis169: huh?
 matthaus_c: @TXC2 that assumes I'm gonna stop at 3 
   Anubis169: LOL
Critterbot: The russians had understood that nothing had to be as good as possible, they just had to be good enough. German stuff was very good, the best in many cases, but they were overengineered, so when it did break down it was very hard to perform maintenance on it.
Critterbot: It also made it much easier to mass produce.
 mostly_minerals: That's so cool
 TheDevil_Risen: that's cool
 matthaus_c: daugs
 DigitalSeahorse: neato
 mostly_minerals: Just a lil link to another person
Stoopler: good doggy, nice doggy
 DigitalSeahorse: 
 DigitalSeahorse: 
   Anubis169: 
Boiler_bot: That's fascinating. I believe mountaineer rifles tend to have metal or other hardened buttplates to specifically protect against that kind of physical effect.
 HorusFive:    
 matthaus_c: "dog days are over" wrong, psydog swarm
 PsychoI3oy:   
 ArmondoSC: just getting nibbled as you run
Stoopler: just out here chugging energy drinks
Lysander_salamander: oh hadn't seen their faces
Lysander_salamander: neat
 DigitalSeahorse: tiny stream of fire that only hurt 1 human
 matthaus_c: they do have strangely human faces
 DigitalSeahorse: ack
 DigitalSeahorse: shame how all of them can hurt you even though they aren't real
Stoopler: what what point do you just go "know what, ill die"
 Mathanwitch: you're so hungry you could eat an pseudogiant
  TXC2: can't let the daemon win
 DigitalSeahorse: the real one isn't the only one that does damage
Stoopler: maybe they'll learn to love you
 ArmondoSC: its gonna happen right outside of rostock and we'll reload all the way back at the base
   Anubis169: I reckon that's 2 psydogs

  TXC2: hello JadedCynic  welcome to the VoD
   Anubis169: 
 JadedCynic: oooo... 
ConvergingMinds: It can be less about the story and more about a concept that I call “living world”.
 beowuuf: hello vod jadedcynic, hope the spoons have returned o/
 JadedCynic: *takes notes*
   Anubis169: That thing's got to be Fallout 4 size
 ArmondoSC: was x-ray even designed to handle that?
 beowuuf: and hello real jadedcynic 
 matthaus_c: Anomaly is the mod that stitches everything together, and every popular modpack rn is based on that
 matthaus_c: @ArmondoSC sure wasn't. but the x-ray SDK and source code leaked, and modders are able to go Wild with it
 ArmondoSC: huh
  TXC2: the chosen one
Lysander_salamander: The book felt a bit like one of those mafia-style novels
  TXC2: the hero with a thousand faces
 Mangledpixel: Hero With a Thousand Faces has a lot to answer for
 LordZarano: Hiro Protagonist
 matthaus_c: that's a thing that really comes through in the movie
Genie_M: They are just guys
 matthaus_c: the characters are all inconsequential
 HorusFive: Also- the system is almost completely indifferent to the protag.  Not openly hostile but deeply uncaring
 sephyhallow: individualist vs collectivist societal perspectives influence our dominant narratives
 HorusFive: * not Always openly hostile
 TheAinMAP: https://www.twitch.tv/loadingreadyrun/clip/CuriousPleasantEagleResidentSleeper-KE-O7mJlvmoCCWOv
 wifi12345678910: @lordzarano That was the point I realized Snowcrash was poorly written.
 TreeVor84: I definitely prefer a stories were the "heroes" are just people.
ConvergingMinds: Yeah, when a game treats the protagonist as just another person? I feel like that can lead to good writing and worldbuilding when done right
 JadedCynic: @HorusFive callously indifferent; you are naught but a possible snack or possible hassle to the Zone...
 Mathanwitch: your hunger meter says you could chug a can of condensed milk whole
 HorusFive: New head.  They get them in bulk
 ArmondoSC: the radiation keeps it from spoilling
BrindleBoar: desperate times, desperate breakfasts
 sephyhallow: @wifi12345678910 I mean, that was Stephenson satirising the trope in what we'd probably now identify as shit-post level humour
 lightfut: CUBE
Lysander_salamander: hahahaha
 TheDevil_Risen: LMAO
 matthaus_c: fucking perfect
Genie_M: Well
 TheAwkes: Coaster stuck to the glass ass glitch.
 BusTed: got a bit stuck to the bottom there
 DigitalSeahorse: ROFL
 Conrii: Good ol stalker jank.
 JadedCynic: !clip

  TXC2: butuiful
Stoopler: 
ConvergingMinds: That jank is so funny lmao
 HorusFive: @JadedCynic Yes- it's also the world.  There's no sense that the future will be utopian or distopian to be overthrown.  It will be the same grinding day to day that we have now, but the cars fly or whatever
  TXC2: the backrooms!
 TreeVor84: that's why you don't use your PDA as a coaster
Stoopler: these games just wouldn't be the same without copious amounts of jank
 wifi12345678910: What if the magic cube is just a Rubik's Cube
 ArmondoSC: oh wow
BrindleBoar: get isekai'd
 HorusFive: "You guys know you have a THING back here?"
 TheDevil_Risen: umm what?
Lysander_salamander: I didn't know those were portals
 Mathanwitch: do it
 Mangledpixel: sclormph
 sephyhallow: you belong to orb now
wholsometiger: oooooooohhhh
 mostly_minerals: Amazing
 ArmondoSC: welp
 Alness49: This is when the bar wants you GONE
Lysander_salamander: wow
 ArmondoSC: oh hey its a fast travel system
  Juliamon: literally the garbage disposal hole
 DigitalSeahorse: 
 matthaus_c: the public transit in the zone is miraculous
 sephyhallow: gentle yeeting
Genie_M: Now we think with portals
  TXC2: now is that local random or set?

 matthaus_c: just show up to Barkeep with a Rubik's
 Marvoleath: I guess this is their garbage chute
 HorusFive: I would also throw my trash into a magic "get the  out"  whole if I had one available.
  TXC2: wifi12345678910  neat
 DigitalSeahorse: plenty of ammo now?
 TheAinMAP: https://www.twitch.tv/loadingreadyrun/clip/GiantSincereDonkey4Head-bTzdsI34yAdAwWIv
 matthaus_c: portal anomalies would be a fun philosophy curveball
 matthaus_c: how does anyone ever know they landed in the same reality they left
  TXC2: "3 months later"
  TXC2: matthaus_c  that, but with sleep
 DigitalSeahorse: uhoh I'm not even in my own timeline anymore
 mostly_minerals: "when did my feet switch places"
 DigitalSeahorse: but at least grandma is here!
 DigitalSeahorse: >.<
 Mathanwitch: meow
 Mathanwitch: meow meow
 DigitalSeahorse: oof
 matthaus_c: @TXC2 *you can't get me with that one anymore, Descartes*
 Mathanwitch: meow meow hiss
 JadedCynic: that locked garage is the appendix of The Zone - collects waste and toxic stuff and traps it in there 
 Mathanwitch: it's in the house nearby in a TV
 ArmondoSC: i was thinking you had to jump to the roof from the building next to it
 DigitalSeahorse: meow
 TheAwkes: Keys are, in general (not for specific missions), near to the door they open.
 SymphonySolstice: teleporbt
 TheAwkes: The teleports all look the same, with the dark pinchy effect in them. The clear orbs aren't.
 DigitalSeahorse: I probably should have slept more before my 10am appointment today
 matthaus_c: Barkeep gave it to you
  TXC2: reward?
 Marvoleath: "Note to Alex" 
 DigitalSeahorse: gave him what?

 DigitalSeahorse: there is no wrong side to have fun climbing
 JadedCynic: "Hey, McConnell! Looks like we've got all the horses!"  "Hey, Beni! Looks like you're on the wrong side of the river!" 
Lysander_salamander: I should watch that again
 ArmondoSC: so quotable too
  TXC2: oh it sure is
 ArmondoSC: yaaa
 QuixoticScrivener: Benin was a great cinematic coward/villain.
 QuixoticScrivener: Benni
 JadedCynic: yeah (also, it seems that I'm just gonna semi-lurk here and eat my supper and recharge)
 wifi12345678910: They showed it at a local LGBTQ film series where I live
 Riiiiiiis: wrong side of the river, that's like this little thing i found called Road Quest
 sephyhallow: a deeply bisexual film for many generations to be awakened by
 DigitalSeahorse: I'm a librarian too
 JadedCynic: testify.
 DigitalSeahorse: I'm in librarians with you
 wifi12345678910: Alex, do you have a recommendation for the play order of the first three games?
BrindleBoar: stalkest
  TXC2: vanilla enough to make it run
 DigitalSeahorse: do most stop signs in Ukraine contain English?
 matthaus_c: the systems will often feel pretty janky and arcane
 Riiiiiiis: @DigitalSeahorse I would assume they don't have any words at all
  TXC2: I'd say either play CoP first, then SoC and Clear sky, or play them in release order
 DigitalSeahorse: get the anti headbob mod
 PsychoI3oy: a mod that's just called "80 grit"
 DigitalSeahorse: Riiiiiiis I would too but one in this game said "stop"
 matthaus_c: it would be so cool if the faction warfare system worked at all
 Mathanwitch: @digitalseahorse all of Ukraine stop signs say "STOP" in plain English, it's standardized
 matthaus_c: you also kinda have to love Stalker to withstand most of the early game in the Great Swamps
 DigitalSeahorse: I see
  TXC2: SoC and CoP have funny bugs, sometimes crashes, Clear Sky had multiple game breaking bugs and crashed if you looked at it
 matthaus_c: what a dogshit area
 DigitalSeahorse: I guess it wouldn't be a "STOP" sign if it didn't really 
 DigitalSeahorse: technically
 DigitalSeahorse: woo Alpha
Lysander_salamander: that's the one that had useable vehicles, right?
 matthaus_c: then try Stalker Anomaly, it's the free mod that stitches all of the games' areas together, and if you like that, look into the modpacks
 DigitalSeahorse: "beep beep, I'm a jeep."
Lysander_salamander: and then there's Misery, which makes things miserable.  Though that one has the cooking minigames.
 Mathanwitch: you can buy a vehicle in Stalker 2 
 matthaus_c: GAMMA is a fun one if you like crunchy crafting and repair systems
 LordZarano: There's also these stop signs for some purposes https://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/thumb/1/1b/UA_road_sign_3.41.svg/605px-UA_road_sign_3.41.svg.png
Lysander_salamander: which artifacts did that quest need?
 Marvoleath: @LordZarano looks like border control
  TXC2: I thought you had the other one
 DigitalSeahorse: thanks for the stop
 Mathanwitch: @lordzarano I think I only saw them at the border control, but not 100% sure.
 Marvoleath: it says "STOP | Control"
 DigitalSeahorse: under a cup
BrindleBoar: stop, drop, and control
 TheAwkes: Random spawn at... electrical anomalies I think, might be a different type? Anomalies have a chance to refresh their artifacts during an emission.
 malsareus: shit I need money is truly a story for the ages
  TXC2: the biggest of moods
 Mathanwitch: magic cube is gravitational, but it is also one of the good artifact to use
 Mathanwitch: I'd not sell it until I get a compass or two
Metric_Furlong: Realism 
 ProcyonFlynn: Easier to get immersed?
 DigitalSeahorse: in this game isn't everyone kinda poor?
  Juliamon: comfort in the familiar?
 DigitalSeahorse: more equalized?
BrindleBoar: because that browser game where you wake up as Jeff Bezos is short and doesn't have a lot of replayability.
  TXC2: gotta be able to empathise with the protag 
 ProcyonFlynn: @TXC2 Winner 
 Mathanwitch: there are 2 options: poor and loot goblin
 matthaus_c: Sonya is my favourite new character
 matthaus_c: she's so fucking good
 BusTed: 
 mostly_minerals: Not Beard :((
 matthaus_c: Beard does not deserve this
  TXC2: not Beard, but Babushka
 matthaus_c: Sultan can kick rocks
 Mathanwitch: you can take the quest and double cross her
 DigitalSeahorse: crickets
 BusTed: 
 matthaus_c: Sonya is not a woman I want to double cross
 DigitalSeahorse: nom
 Mathanwitch: this quest has one of the best guns for my playstyle as a side find
 malsareus: no need to start hostilities with her
 DigitalSeahorse: woops
 matthaus_c: pit boss!
Wilcroft: 
 LurkerSpine: wait how much of a fall was that?
 matthaus_c: it was enough 
SkyShatter7: I look away for 10 seconds
 DigitalSeahorse: I blinked
 TheAwkes: Note: routes may contain unidentified hazards.
 matthaus_c: now, if Sonya wanted us to kill Sidorovich...
 matthaus_c: now that'd be tempting

 TheAwkes: The whole Cordon is here, just the way you remember it.
 Conrii: I would assume Scamovich is still fleecing people are Rookie Village.
 Mathanwitch: oh yes, he is. still same bastard we know
 TheAinMAP: https://www.twitch.tv/loadingreadyrun/clip/AliveArbitraryMangetoutSmoocherZ-IJVyr0mEuxxbyVKA
BrindleBoar: yes
Critterbot: Yes.
 matthaus_c: I think there's a mod for Anomaly that replaces the Controller model with Sidorovich
BrindleBoar: "when a man loves a gun..."
BrindleBoar: does it replace the SFX too?
 matthaus_c: hopefully!
Genie_M: Bubbles!
 Mathanwitch: bubble tea zone style
s_t_a_l_k_e_r_ll: swamps?
 ArmondoSC: im sure it'll be morning soon
  TXC2: Swamps
s_t_a_l_k_e_r_ll: idd, swamps 
 Mathanwitch: movement through that alone deal psychic damage.. directly to the player though
Lysander_salamander: this game needs like, giant mutant catfish
 TheAwkes: Huh. I never bothered getting that close to the transmitters. I just shot them until they exploded.
 matthaus_c: usually the whines don't affect me much but this is kinda fucked 
 ArmondoSC: that just what we need, getting chased by psydogs through water
shushu2539: looting a cemetery is bad luck
 TheAwkes: Kitty!
 matthaus_c: that's what I look like irl
  TXC2: LITTLE MONKEY CAT!
Lysander_salamander: pseudo-cat?
Critterbot: D-don't worry about it. 
 Mathanwitch: meow meow!
 TheDevil_Risen: radioactive smegol
 matthaus_c: it's sorta comforting that the Swamps are still a special kind of hell on earth
 TheAwkes: Kitty make sleempy. Nap with kitty!
 Mazrae: Hello Alex how are you doing, hello chat how are all of you doing
s_t_a_l_k_e_r_ll: oh it does not translate the muttering of the ppl
  TXC2: hello Mazrae  welcome
s_t_a_l_k_e_r_ll: ask if u want a hint
 TheAwkes: There are the usual video game route cues.
  Juliamon: s_t_a_l_k_e_r_ll we have a system for that
  Juliamon: !heychat
  LRRbot: Please ONLY offer advice when the streamer uses the phrase "Hey, chat...". Let them try to learn the game on their own, even if it means they miss a thing or two.
 TheAwkes: You've proved that gamers can look up, but looking down works sometimes too.
s_t_a_l_k_e_r_ll: just a small one, look closely at where u can come from
Genie_M: Nice weather and darkness doesn't help
s_t_a_l_k_e_r_ll: nice 
 matthaus_c: for free?
 TheAinMAP: 
 DigitalSeahorse: 
 DigitalSeahorse: where's the rest of it
 DigitalSeahorse: ceiling your hands together isn't a good idea
 Mazrae: Get out of my radiated swamp
 matthaus_c: guess the Renegades didn't survive either
 TheAwkes: It was your friend who's fun to be with.
  Juliamon: oh no
s_t_a_l_k_e_r_ll: 
 DigitalSeahorse:  
s_t_a_l_k_e_r_ll: it really is
  TXC2: more of a pain in the neck surely? 
  Juliamon: very rude, game
 matthaus_c: the only thing worse than a Controller, a Controller using cover
Lysander_salamander: I hate it when media adds in fake tinnitus
s_t_a_l_k_e_r_ll: yep, and he stops the started animation, too like reloading, healing etc.
 malsareus: time for grenades?
 matthaus_c: you only made him look cooler!
 ScrapyardGhostTrain: @Lysander_salamander Yeah, causing people migraines is not good.
 TheDangerWaffle: woh
  TXC2: "I am once again asking for shotshell rounds in 40mm"
 matthaus_c: that grenade dodged him
  TXC2: are they animation cancelling the grenades? 
 matthaus_c: what a handsome man
 gualdhar: Clearly those grenades didn't cook long enough. That was the problem.
 malsareus: raw grenades, very unhealthy
  TXC2: it really feels to me that corpses have so little ammo on them

 ArmondoSC: @TXC2 you totally killed them when they were on their last bullets
  TXC2: ArmondoSC  clearly

Boiler_bot: Fortuitous.
 TheMerricat: They're slow time warps, you can shoot them and the bullets will float for a bit.
  TXC2: damnit Faust
 matthaus_c: well, it was his whole existence and worldview
Boiler_bot: okay dokey
 DigitalSeahorse: 
BrindleBoar: dream?
 matthaus_c: Faust is basically a cult survivor at this point
