I wanted to play CoP again and I learned about MISERY and how it inspired anomaly, wich shoul raised a red flag in me. I still dowloaded it to give it a try and I almost died of radiation poisoning because of the wheel artifact. Had to buy with my reward money plenty of water flasks to not collapse next to Beard. Why can you start with cigarettes in your inventory but without a lighter? Why does Beard sell stupid shit like ganja and inported beans but not a lighter? Great video btw, keep up the good work. Hope your next banger features a mod you would recommend and also doesnt hate the player lol

Yeah the game didn't start you off with metal box to clue in about that feature, which sucks. And given this is old mod, it lacks quality features like dragging items to other items for convenience or removing the animations where camera just shakes as you use item. I don't know how long I keep interest on stalker, video subject may be on different game. But its not that I leave it entirely, I just have these mood swings what game to focus on time to time.

"Frustration is a tool I wanted to use" Nikita was responsible for Misery? That would explain A LOT. Had more fun from dramas and modders' posts like one about smol tent to hide from Emission. Misery v1,2 was perfect version, maybe SGM+Misery too if you find right version. But anything else is pure garbage, hassle and struggle. Do you know if wearing artifacts did anything? Because for me (IIRC) they were borderline useless and for sell only. They could help me in the lab x-8 in Pripyat due to PSI mutants being close and melting me. Even with psi-blocks and upgraded scientits suit. Never considered dumping "neutrals" usually hanging around the Zone with them to loot their defeated enemies (mostly mutants). Oh and for some reason rare mutants got artifacts inside them? I remember doing Big Iron hunt (The Armed Zone TAZ pack had amazing guns! Revolvers were OP for huntings) to cut off some artifacts from rare mutants.... If the modders focused on calling this mod "hardcore" and not "realistic" like NLC creator - there would be less dramas? This was the mod (for me) that started this "hardcore hard = realistic" nonsense...

I see few mention previous versions of MISERY being better, I wonder what is with that. The armed zone i glanced few times over, but ended up not using. Guess cause I'm already satisfied with existence of mosin and PPSH.

@@Valdetiosi Misery v1,2 gives you less reward&loot (that means there's WAY less junk and garbage in your inventory, making it easy to read), but also enemies (and player) are less spongy. Rewards and money from selling artifact (also weapons in good condition) feels satisfying.

Misery was my first interaction with Stalker. Now now, i said "interaction" not "playthrough". I was unaware of Stalker back then but eventually wanted to try it out so in my infinite wisdom of my younger self, i grabbed a "Stalker - Misery standalone" torrent from a torrent site, installed it, got killed by snorks merely seconds after spawning and uninstalled, only for me to get into the series propper by playing SoC a few years after the fact. So yeah, thanks Misery.... i guess.....

This mod almost ruined STALKER for the western audience. I'm glad STALKER 2 didn't take any notes from this or Anomaly whatsoever.

Misery is like one of parents of Anomaly and Gamma. It added alot of new mechanics(which you can see in Anomaly) and cranked up difficulty to maximum. Anomaly is like Misery and Call of Chernobyl would have baby if you played Anomaly its more or less the same but with Call of Pripyat story.
