Special thanks to Focus Entertainment for the free and early copy of Atomic Heart! Atomic Heart takes place in Facility 3826, the Soviet Union's foremost scientific research hub in an alternate 1955. In the 1930s, scientist Dmitry Sechenov develops a liquidized programmable module called the Polymer, sparking massive technological breakthroughs in the fields of energy and robotics in the USSR and freeing much of the populace from manual labor. These breakthroughs include a networked artificial intelligence called the "Kollektiv" linking these robots together. Sechenov also develops a device called "Thought" to integrate Polymer into the human body, allowing remote neural interfacing with the robots as part of an improved Kollektiv 2.0. However, its official launch on 13 June 1955 goes awry, plunging Facility 3826 into chaos. The main protagonist is a mentally unstable officer on special assignments named Major Sergei Nechaev, nicknamed P-3, sent by Sechenov to keep the situation at facility 3826 from deteriorating. P-3 is challenged with combating robots that went haywire, failed biomechanical experiments and his own, ever-deteriorating mental state.

Hope the devs fix this in a later patch and not leave it like that. Also 1:57:40 is one of a couple examples of lagging cutscenes and it happened throughout the video. I don't know if was a recording bug or the game since I seen other playthroughs that didn't have the lag.

I can say that the English dub is very different from the Russian dub, in English a lot of dialogues have been changed or rewritten. For example: 2:52:53 dialogue between a major of KGB and his glove (I will not write everything, dialogues that do not have an English voice acting) M- major KGB Nechaev H-glove H - Unfortunately, yes, Comrade Major. The struggle for power in the Kremlin never subsides. Party elite demanded for itself power in the "Collective". M - Hy... After all, this is our government... We are the USSR... H - We are Yes! But "The Collective" was conceived as universal for all people on the planet. And on the planet there is not only USSR. M - Capitalists and imperialists must not be allowed into the Collective! Or 4:04:19 missed very important dialogue
