Makes sense to me, wouldn't be the first game that's unplayable thanks to DRM.

I absolutely love STALKER. All three of them. The atmosphere is great. I recently read the book Roadside Picninc by Boris and Arkadi Strugatskij (or Strugatsky) and (re)watched the film Stalker by Andrej Tarkovskij. Very atmospheric movie if a bit heavy on the emotional side comparing to the game. But he always did that, Tarkovskij. Same with Solaris.

The book is more in line with the game than the movie is. In fact, the book is one of the best Sci-fi books I've read for years and it had me digging up all sorts of old gems the Strugatskij's wrote. Its not easy to find translations of all their works, but it is doable.

In fact, I managed to read the book about the Forest that Cameron supposedly nicked for Avatar. Good reads, I recommend game, movie and book

I haven't seen the movie, but the novel is completely different than the game. It's all about anomalies, not about killing things. What a great game that would be, if they hadn't amends to make to the action crowds.

Nor the movie or the book is about killing anything really. I just find that the concept of STALKER the game comes closer to the mood I got out of reading Piknik na obochine, which is much more action-like and viscerally dramatic. The movie is serene, god damn beautiful and quite introspective, which is typical for Tarkovskij.

Incompetence on the developers side, The russian version worked good because it didnt have SecuRom, had Starforce i think.

Though I am happy you got your, as far as I can tell, legitimately owned game to work. Please abide by Subsim policy and not discuss cracks and the like here.
