‘Escape From Tarkov’ Fans Are Outraged At New $250 Pay-To-Win Edition
With a massive $250 price tag and features many are calling pay to win, the reaction to the new Unheard Edition of Tarkov has not been positive.

The game scratches an itch for me that no other video games has ever been able to. Really sucks that the devs are awful. Really hoping a good replacement game comes out sometime.
Seriously. I've never had a game pump adrenaline for me like Tarkov. Combined with the fact that over hundreds of hours of play in a wipe, I still feel like I'm making long term progress in every raid is just addicting. The core gameplay loop is just fun.
Give me a good dev who respect their players who can give me these things and there goes years of my gaming time.
Single player, but stalker Gamma scratches that same itch for me better than tarkov ever could and its completely free.
Ooo, thanks for the recommendation
No worries. The cost here is disk space as GAMMA is built on top of the free Anomaly game. In total, it looks like its costing me 89.3 GB of storage on an NVME, and they do recommend an SSD at least for the games (that total includes S.T.A.L.K.E.R Anomaly, and GAMMA).
Anomaly can be obtained here https://www.moddb.com/mods/stalker-anomaly, and I believe you can get GAMMA from this discord https://discord.com/invite/stalker-gamma.
Follow the install instructions on the GAMMA discord when it comes to both Anomaly and GAMMA, they are pretty straight forward, and they have free support!
I think you would be impressed by the AI, it is some of the best enemy AI I have ever experienced. They peek corners just like a player would. The other day when I was playing, an enemy peeked a corner in front of me, shot me and immediately went back behind the corner. I walked into the building that they had peeked around and looked out of a window to see if I could spot them. The AI had backed up behind cover and was holding the corner they had peeked, not moving at all.
Never seen AI that smart in any game in my life, if I had walked around that corner, I would have been dead!
While the game is unforgiving and there is a fairly steep learning curve, it is one of the most incredible games I have played in my life, again, for free!
Let me know how it goes if you give it a shot :)
