Stalker remaster reviews crater to 'Mostly Negative' as players lament deleted Soviet monuments, yanked Russian language, and blurry graphics that I didn't notice in 23 hours playing

Such is life in the Zone.

From what I’m reading, these changes were already present in the console ports released last year, and S.T.A.L.K.E.R. 2 also doesn’t have a Russian dub.

    They’re merely acting on what the majority of Ukrainians believe: that the Soviet regime was totalitarian and terrorist,

    Let’s just ignore this point for the sake of time, and ignore all the objective data on the prosperity the workers enjoyed under the Soviet Union and the objective drop in quality of life following its dissolution.

    I see zero ethnic repression in the dev’s actions.

    Oh, you mean like how they’re removing access to Russian-

    It does not have to come in the form of laws. When you cut off access to the Ukrainian television and force everybody to watch Russian TV…

    Mandating that the official language is used is not the same as outlawing the others.

    Is it repression when Ukrainians do it or is it not? The intentional cognitive dissonance is stunning.

    The reason why it’s so easy to pick apart your vehement defense of Ukraine is because 1) you are defending fascists, and 2) you are fundamentally refusing to understand that nobody is saying the modern state of Russia is some paradise or paragon of history.

    You go on these diatribes accomplishing nothing because you’re so neck deep in propaganda and liberalism that you don’t even know what is reality and what is fiction anymore.

    Even now your eyes are just rolling over at any of the facts posted in this entire post because surely you are on the right side of history and surely this war is one holy nation against the evil scourge and there is no need to ever question anything your media tells you and anything saying otherwise is just propaganda.

    Just ignore how you continue to spew a firehose of lies while others have disproven every single defense of Ukraine in this post and never addressing them. Anything to keep the facade of being on the right side.
