I enjoyed my time with it. I didn't enjoy the boss battles that much, so I did lower the difficulty from veteran for those. I'm happy with The Ward ending. It's the choice I would make in real life given the circumstance.

Between mid and end 2025 I guess, but not any news about this yet

I bought this one a week ago and after a couple of hours I decided to refund it and use the money on FF7 Rebirth and Kingdom Come Deliverance 2.
Aside for the fact that the "downgrade" from the early trailers is almost comical (and it's weird people didn't make more of a stink about it),
maybe I'll be back the day the y ACTUALLY patch in the features they promised before launch, rather than a vague "Some day, eventually").

I don't believe anything I see in trailers so wouldn't have made a stink personally.

People should never believe trailers, and no dev is exempt from this.
The game still looks amazing. It definitely has it's issues, but it's still one of my favorite games of the year despite literally having to use UE dev tools to progress through the entire last 1/3 of the game.

I don't have time anymore to play every game 2 to 4 times after DLC and patches are released. If I play a game at all, I want the finished product. I hate knowing that after I have finished a game, more content comes out that I may miss out on because I played "too soon". Cyberpunk was one of the worst offenders in this regard. Even when they say they are done, they still add more shit, 4 years after release. Practically a live service game. I absolutely plan to play STALKER 2, just not yet.I'll reinstall this summer

It's a single player game. There's no need to rush just wait until the game is in a good state.

Was the AI patch to the taste of old Stalker veterans in the end?

I'm curious about this as well. I'm a long time Stalker fan, and I would like to do another play through (that I hopefully don't have to use UE tools to actually play) but I don't want to play through what I did before as it wasn't really up to par.

For those that have finished the game, I am at a mission named

Bought the game at release, but started to play it only during christmas when they put out a few patches already. So cannot say how it was directly after release. But AI-wise its playable I would say. There were other things which annoyed me more....which I had to mod out in order to stay somewhat sane.

Not that far, just a few more treks across the map.

Thanks. Whilst getting shot to shit by 5 or 6 member death squads who seem to be able to use shot guns like sniper rifles and never heal or run out of ammo.

Before the patch the world was so empty it was unnerving. Nothing happened in between spawn points. Now it has working patrols and better spawns. There's room for improvement, especially for the offline A-Life, but it's good enough now... Certainly less annoying than Clear Sky lol
They should fix the soundscape - the sound of combat and monsters in the distance made the original Zone feel alive. It was just random noise but in conjuction with the offline A-Life it sold the illusion of a living world.
