GSC Game World has done it again - they postponed the premiere of Stalker 2. Again. Once more. Yet again. The umpteenth time. And that is the whole news.
Well, not exactly whole news, this time they prepared a video material and everything. And by "everything" I mean the same pre-rendered scene around the fire, but cut down to about 20 seconds and an accurate date for the premiere, September 5th, 2024. Well, probably accurate. At least for now. Most likely. As far as we can tell. This new "trailer" is so short and pointless, that I won’t even bother to add it to this "news". Unless Stalker 2 is gonna be a tea drinking simulator, it will tell you absolutely nothing about the game (like any of the previous ones).
So... that is actually it. Just to summarize: on their own YouTube channel, GSC Game World, publisher of one of the most anticipated games this year (and to be fair, also two previous years), in the past 12 months managed to publish about 9 minutes of materials. Most of them are just the trailers (pre-rendered) and a very short bit of actual gameplay, so... we’ll see how this will end, but I don’t hold my breath in anticipation.

Here are 5 reasons the game failed, and none of them has anything to do with the ongoing war in Ukraine.
Stalker 2 news - Stop this planet, I wanna get off!
Stalker 2 popped up in the news again, due to NFTs drama, but also exposed that nothing has changed in the world lately. Unfortunately.
Timber! Stalker 2 is about to fall flat on its face
Almost 3 months ago I was worried that Stalker 2 might be a huge disappointment for several reasons. Now, that developers showed us the gameplay trailer, lots and lots of red flags popped up on this project that made me feel smug and important...
2023, the year of the brainless?
We are just 3 days into the new year and already you can look with nostalgia on good old 2022, when things were simpler. No, I’m not talking about war in Ukraine, possible war over Taiwan, possible resurface of COVID-19 in China, I’m talking about... oh god, I can’t believe I’m gonna say that... Logan Paul.
Baldur’s Gate 3 is actually bad
If you are one of the hundreds of thousands of people who played the recently published Baldur’s Gate 3, you might have missed that you are actually playing a really bad game. Well, not actually bad game, it’s more like "a game bad for the industry". Yup, it’s Elden Ring all over again.
