S.T.A.L.K.E.R. 2: A look back at the ARG's Story & Documents

[@anomalousdugout9557]

Please don't share leaks in the comments. All soundtracks are listed in the description. Additional ideas and theories: - The "Object" could be the TOPAZ device which Herman and Skif might have stolen; - Noon was depicted as a squad doing dangerous missions and helping the SIRCAA back in 2013. When Strider said "we used to be puppets" he may have been referring to being used by the Institute rather than being a former member of Monolith; - The Stranger could also be Cypher, however it is unclear if Cypher and Venya are the same person.

Damn, this video showed up sooner than I expected! Great job collecting all the information. It's a pity that the ARG topic wasn't popularized in the western community when everything was actually happening. It's good to see explanation of some of the vague facts mentioned in the trilogy, and various references to events of the "prehistory'"of the Zone, like mentions of Suslov and Kaymanov. No matter what Stalker 2 turns out to be, the lore will certainly be interesting to explore, even if it conflicts with what has already been established.

Hello, Anomalous Dugout! I am Ukrainian, I recently found your channel and subscribed. You have very interesting content, keep it up! Now I'm watching all your videos about lore. I would like to offer you some topics for the following videos: topic 1 - a detailed analysis of the Chornobyl Nuclear Power Plant in the game and its comparison with the real station, because this location is very important for the Stalker universe, or you can generally compare all locations and objects in the game with their real prototypes; topic 2 - find out why in the Shadow of Chornobyl at the locations Dark Valley, Yantar, Radar, Pripyat and CNPP the weather is always gloomy and you can never see dawn, morning, evening, night and sunny weather. In general, Yantar has a unique weather with a kind of white sky, there is no such weather in any other location except Yantar. In my opinion, this is an interesting feature of Yantar; topic 3 - find out why in the Shadow of Chornobyl, after turning off the Brain Scorcher, the stalkers immediately got to Pripyat and the road to the city was known to everyone, and in the Call of Pripyat, where the events take place after the events of the Shadow of Chornobyl, the road to Pripyat is already for some reason is unknown and no one knows how to get there, although stalkers, Freedom, and Duty with the military were there before. I think these would be pretty interesting topics to discuss in your videos. Thank you again for very interesting content on my favorite game!))

Clone or the real one. Both would be dope because you see how worn out Strelok looks like before and how youthful he looks there if that's him. Many people are longing for the fountain of youth

Угонять тачки конечно круто. А ты пробовал убегать от своры разъяренных мутантов, при этом бежишь то ты вовсе не от них, а от выброса в укрытие попутно ловя пули над головой. Эти ощущения на другом уровне.

[@malaizze]

I think it’s worth pointing out that Zenith occurred just around 7 years before SIRCAA caught their latest lead on the object. It could be that the object is somehow related to Zenith - perhaps it’s goal, since turning off the Generators was apparently only one partial goal. My guess is that they could be looking for the… “heart of Chernobyl” Also, the object seems a lot like the Bioartifact from S2 2011, which was seemingly capable of destroying the Zone or expanding the Zone to the entire planet. If they’re using that idea I hope Problesk carries some of Omega’s DNA, I always wanted to see those guys

[@anomalousdugout9557]

Yes, that could be the case.

[@kpv8]

I guess it's very likely that they revived this Heart of Chernobyl artifact thing as they did many more things from cancelled Stalker 2. But i guess it has nothing to do with this ball shaped device from Call to me trailer, because looking at the room it's in, it could be inside one of the Reactor halls (1 or 2) of CNPP. It could be Wish Granter main power/illusion generator (which is then connected to the room we saw in Shadow or Chernobyl), it can also be device which acted as connection between Monolith and c-consciousness (experimental noosphere connection device which allowed later to build generators) or maybe device keeping teleports over the area of the CNPP (they are only seen there), it was never explained what keeps them there. Also there was some kind of "Installation" in cancelled S2 game that Freedom wanted to use to expand the Zone or we could use it to destroy it, but this was in the endings of it and i don't think they would do endings as same as there.

[@TheMoToRF]

The heart of Chernobyl is a proto-artifact that will help stabilize the zone. We will use this artifact in the laboratory under the Generators. After that (in the true finale) The Skiff will lie down in a С-Consciousness capsule and wake up at home. p.s. his house was destroyed by an anomaly. there is no Omega and the concept of bioartefact. The plot is completely new and uses only the little things from previous sketches. but the new plot is much cooler than the previous sketches of S2 2011. the plot has become more dramatic and sad. And more detailed in the details. A Problesk is a group of Scars.

[@kpv8]

@@TheMoToRF I guess it's not good to spoil the finale or the plot before release, i have seen much of new S2 documents, concepts etc., but i don't wanted to open the endings or plot files to still be able to play and enjoy the story. I know much more about the game, but i don't want to say it, to not ruin things before release for everyone. So i'm writting speculations which are close to what will be in the game, but not directly.

[@F1stzz]

@@anomalousdugout9557 I know you, guys, can't possibly be familiar with all the fanfic literature on STALKER that exists (not that it's even necessary as 99% of it is an absolute BS), but in the past 15 years we've had plenty of it circling around here in Ukraine, Russia etc. The more info on the ARG I get & the more fan theories and analysis about the CIRCAA's probable activities I see - the more it all reminds me of Victor Nochkin's "The Mutant Skull". Back in the day it was quite a popular read amongst the so-called "CIS STALKER community", which is why it was also one of the very first STALKER-based/inspired fanfics I've read, and the idea introduced in it sounds as follows: the artifacts are actually not a "blessing for humanity", but rather a trap, a time-ticking bomb planted under the "normal" world waiting for certain circumstances to set the disaster in motion. The artifacts, by Nochkin, only need to be placed in the extensively irradiated areas (such as ones left after a nuclear explosion) to turn themselves into anomalies they were born from. Once transformed into anomalies, those could probably (in fact, highly possibly) create another Zone within the aforementioned areas in different parts of our planet (and it's an established fact within the STALKER universe that artifacts are constantly being sold to an outside world by dealers). In the same book Nochkin also provides an idea of mutants being unable to survive for long outside the Zone, bcuz they need all this anomalous radiation/energy/emissions, whatever you wanna call it, as much as humans need an oxygen or water for living. The plot of "The Mutant Skull" itself is basically an evil corpo planning a local nuclear disaster in a small town to expand the Zone, that corpo already has accumulated spent nuclear fuel from the NPP nearby + explosives & some artifacts beforehand, as well as got some pairs of mutants transported in there in cages ready to release 'em into the newly-created Zone and yadda-yadda-yadda, you get the point. Maybe CIRCAA's activity would resemble something like that in the new game's plot, who knows 🤷🏻‍♂️

[@mistarcake]

I think I agree with the theory that the "device" is the experimental charge lost by the military. Perhaps the TOPAZ is related to it somehow, but the fact that the planned use of the charge was brought up in these documents makes me think it is more directly linked to the search by SIRCAA.

[@anomalousdugout9557]

Yes, it would make sense.

[@ahealthkit2745]

I'm so glad this is out! I don't think the stranger is actually strelok but it could be. I think the person he ordered to be killed is probably Doctor, since he knows the most about the zone and helped Strelok reach the centre of the zone. I think Doctor might be captured by SIRCAA and has to be executed to keep from giving up secrets. Weither or not the stranger is Strelok, the figure mentions being saved by the zone, given a new life that they devote to protecting it. So, this must be someone who was well, saved by the zone somehow.

The World would just be an even more boring and much worse place without the Zone considering the potential of the artifacts though sure the Zone would stop spreading. The 'Zone's disappearance' choice could be interpreted as an attempt to 'hack' the C-Consciousness (this must be one of the theories someone else probably already thought of but i just didn't bother to check :D)through the Wish Granter to incorporate this thought in itself and eventually destroy itself, i don't think it makes much sense otherwise as it's just a bad choice but one which might carry the most influence as the Wish Granter turns out to be fake in one of the games. I wonder if Strelok/Degtyarev (i don't remember which)chose an option that would kill him, would he become a part of the C-Consciousness? Or the C-Consciousness isn't changing and cannot be changed anymore since its creation?
