Best game in the franchise, Clear Sky had some very problematic stuff, Call of Pripyat was too easy and had less interesting moments, even though both are good games and I loved Call of Pripyat's ending, Shadow of Chernobyl has the best story, my favorite moments and an overall good difficulty. I recommend the entire S.T.A.L.K.E.R franchise to anyone and I'm absurdly hyped for S.T.A.L.K.E.R 2, I just wish you luck when playing Clear Sky lol.
Fun game, heavily moddable, and overall fun gameplay mechanics, but suffers from some glitches and story engagement issues. The ending can be quite thrilling however.
Same here, as well as the limited time that you had for quests, meaning you can't do them at your own leisure.
Unlimited fetch quests irritated me.
