I remember: gunfire randomly muting itself, multiple main quests that failed to progress until I ran about two kilometres away from them, bloodsuckers that required approximately 46,000 rounds to kill, and enemy corpses becoming nightmarish, distended and levitating things. <\/p>\n<p>Despite it all, I loved it. Stalker 2 had the bones of something beautiful, just as soon as GSC could get around to, you know, finishing making it.<\/p>\n<p>If that time hasn&#8217;t arrived, I think it&#8217;s fast-approaching. On August 20, almost two years after the base game&#8217;s release, Stalker 2 will get its first expansion, <a href=\"https:\/\/store.steampowered.com\/app\/3765020\/STALKER_2_Cost_of_Hope\/\" target=\"_blank\">Cost of Hope<\/a>. <\/p>\n<p>This is the first of two planned story DLCs for the game, this one focusing on the Zone&#8217;s Duty (who think the Zone is scary and we should shoot it), and Freedom (who think the Zone is wondrous and we should share it) factions. &#8220;Explore uncharted locations, encounter unexpected allies and enemies, discover powerful weapons, and experience a gripping new story,&#8221; goes the blurb.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;Launching in line&#8221; with Cost of Hope is Stalker 2&#8217;s long-awaited 2.0 update, which I might honestly be more ravenous for. In August last year, GSC announced that it would be undertaking the fairly mammoth task of <a href=\"https:\/\/www.pcgamer.com\/games\/fps\/stalker-2-says-to-hell-with-it-lets-just-update-our-entire-unreal-engine-implementation-in-new-roadmap-for-the-rest-of-the-year\/\">completely updating the version of Unreal Engine 5<\/a> the game runs on, from 5.1 to 5.5.4. That&#8217;s update 2.0&#8217;s big crowning bulletpoint. Mind you, it&#8217;s also bringing new features and content of its own\u2014which will, unlike the DLC, be free to all Stalker 2 owners.<\/p>\n<div style=\"min-height: 250px;\">\n<div class=\"kwizly-quiz kwizly-W0Rm7X\"><\/div>\n<\/p><\/div>\n<p> <script src=\"https:\/\/kwizly.com\/embed\/W0Rm7X.js\" async><\/script><\/p>\n<p>GSC says it will have more to share on both Cost of Hope and update 2.0 as we draw nearer to the August 20 release date.<\/p>\n<p>I&#8217;ve not touched Stalker 2 since that feverish review period. I figured I&#8217;d wait for GSC to do its thing. I think it might be time to return. I loved Stalker 2 when it was practically on fire. A (more or less) working version of the game with some shinier and more stable UE5 bells and whistles?
