Yea, its pretty cool, yet has its flaws.
1) I get lost with all the quests (I got like 15 now..)
I though Ill just get all the missions + side missions, finish all at once, and bring back all together.
But one quest lead me for some camp where I got like 10 more, etc... so I am getting confused with that. But hey, rather have alot of side quests than none
the more the better, I don't have to do them, my choice only.
2) I had alot of trouble getting to the SMG, maybe I was skipping ahead? I was just where your video ended, (yet did 1 extra mission about a guy lying down and asking for a medkit), went to some random mission, and the way was blocked by like 8 armed guys with SMG's and grenades. Took me alot of tries to get those bastards, but after that I took the AK (some sort?) they had and just owned. I play it bit by bit, doing several missions than I get of it (mainly cause the game randomly crash and I just get pissed off and say f*** it).
3) There was some part I think I jumped in my seat. I noticed some box I can break with a knife (like in your vid), the box was on my right. So I turn, break it, get the money, just happen to like to my right (where I cam from...) and there was some alien freak or someshit right in my face. The best thing, is that it had no sound to indicate nor I was forced to look. Its like turning back and noticing there is some one you don't know in your house (but.. In a game
) so I liked that part and smiled like an idiot.
4) I don't really use the shop for anything but to sell items. And I don't know what most of my items do.. I got some dog-tails, some glowing rocks, alot of types of ammo that I guess I dont use.. I walk with like 40k~50K on my back out of 60. So each stalker I see, I just sell him all the guns I happened to grab. And there isn't really anything to don't click me... I don't need ammo or guns as I get those from the bandits or w/e I kill. And it seems I got a stalker suit at some point without noticing, and from all the shops I have seen, its the best armor... So I don't know what to do with all the money I collect besides <3 it as I am a jew after all
5) I noticed I can join sides, I think its the Duty and the otherSomethingIdontRemember... So I won't be a loner (forever alone!!!) Any hints about those?
6) I got a sleeping bag or something like that, do I need to sleep in it at some point? Does it have any actual purpose?
