These versions still have full russian text, I do find silly to remove a dub that was already done, but nothing is stopping the russian fanbase from playing any game

What's more annoying is the lazy removal of in-game assets like this

https://www.reddit.com/r/stalker/comments/1kqxbks/enhanced_edition_biggest_change/

Like one of the comments says, like at least destroy it or something? but no, they just cut the monument

Ya I hate censorship and changing stuff ..but if you are going to censor or remove stuff put effort into it don't be lazy like that image example as it just looks off in how they did it leaving the bases there rather then removing them completely

Heck the two enhanced version of Doom 2 that exists (one stand alone one bundled with the enhanced Doom 1 game) and I believe the Doom 2 version in the Doom 3 BFG edition when they censored the secert levels and changed level names in them that was Wolfenstien based they put actual effort into the censoring replacing the enemys that was there with regular doom enemys and the artwork in game of a specific someone they changed toorather then just wiping out

I bring up the Doom censorship as its the main example that comes to my mind at this moment as the censoring was not the lazy route.. unlike here

Edit Also whats worse if I am not mistaken that spestic statue or whatever one wants to call it.. if I am not mistaken the context of that statue was the following

it's a memorial to workers that risked their lives trying their best to stop a disaster, completely unrelated to the events that seemed to spur the change there

If I am mistaken please be respestful in the correction

So, i went back into the zone and...

...got my ass handed to me in two minutes flat at the car park lol.

God damn, games used to make you work for it, uh ? I'm anticipating many hours of pure fun with the enhanced trilogy

Dare i say, speaking strictly of SoC as that's the one i started with and haven't checked out CS and CoP, that so far this looks like enhanced done right.

The game feels infinitely better than what i remember from the OG, all around smooth and it looks much better too but i guess that on looks YMMV depending on target res.

As for the changes, on the wake of the past decade it's refreshing to see decisions being made that i disagree with but that i can nonetheless justify instead of decisions i disagreed with and simply could not justify because it's impossible to justify bad faith.

So, yeah, i'm surprised with how much i appreciate the enhanced SoC, here's hoping the other two are at least at the same level and i would lie if i were to say that my interest in STALKER 2 hasn't peaked. I know, new game, new game's problems, different ball game and all of that but now i'm interested so - well done GSC ;)

Appreciate the new versions! Hopefully i'll buy Stalker 2 when all the bugs are ironed out and it goes on sale again!

Same but for me only if they either put the dlcs separately up for sale or put the - Ultimate Edition for at the very least 45 percent off as ain't no way I am paying almost 110 usd for a game

Same here.

I would write to support about that, if it hasn´t been added yet, it probably won´t be.

Also forgot - Missed opportunity to add the Czech voice overs.... AGAIN!!!

So that is still relegated purely to the physical copies that were sold here in the past.

Still find it funny how everybody seems to be avoiding Czech voice overs like the plague. No company ever adds them in digital re-releases for some reason.

No no, you misunderstood. They were added to library correctly, just didn't show as "owned" in the store interface. A rather minor if headscratching bug.
Which by now is a moot point anyway, because it shows correctly as "in library" already.

Nice!
Thank you very many, GSC Game World! :x

That looks like a bad case of downgrade. Luckily we still have the originals.

Ah, allright then.
I thought you were saying that Clear Sky has not been added to your library, while the other two titles did.
Because I had similar problem - only CoP EE appeared in my library, although I own all 3 games.

Later on, the remaining two appeared as well, but I had the same problem as you - both the original games and the EE were not marked as owned on the store page. It took about 24 hours till they were marked as such - I suspect they actually silently gifted all of us either the EE versions or originals, even though we already owned them, and their own script took care of the rest, so all of them appear as owned now. I really doubt they did it manually.

No, they seem to have added fine for me, albeit gradually. First CoP (for some reason), then SoC, then lastly CS. Then they just wouldn't display as owned until about 8 hours ago. I suspect something in DB, because as I said, the old games appear as "recently added" on main store page, alongside their EE counterparts, So most likely the sync were giving them a headache and they had to redefine the older products, and proceed manually from there. Then the script / intended process did the rest.
The important part is though that they are all there, and all seems to be in order with those. So it's water under the bridge.

This is really nice! I wasn't expecting at all to get the 3 enhanced editions for free, but just a generous discount to buy them, something like 50% off, so I sincerely appreciate this gesture of goodwill ;-)
