Based on reviews, Stalker 2 is a great game behind all the technical issues, but apparently the day one patch fixes a lot of the technical issues and a lot of reviewers have reviewed it based on pre-day one patch, even DigitalFoundry mentions that the day one patch has fixed a lot of issues and made significant improvements, so either take the risk in delving in now or wait a few months but without those tech issues it sounds like a solid 80's title even with those issues 76 is a decent score. Cohh is streaming it and loving it.
Seems like they made a mistake in sending codes out before launch but I will wait for more day one impressions from streamers, Steam users, etc. Then decide if it's fixed enough for me to play it soon or in a few months from now. All that being said, it's a miracle is even got out, massive respect to the developers, I don't regret for a second sending them my money even if I'll be waiting a few months to play it.
Stalker fans seem to be loving what they're hearing too in the blurbs about how it plays so that's nice to see, seems like it was mostly let down by technical issues that may be fixed already, my initial reaction was to wait but then seeing impressions people playing it post-patch and the blurbs about the actual gameplay, makes me want to play it sooner.
