This is like a weird episode of Seinfeld. I come on here to tell you that seeing your icon "Universe Sandbox" was going to ruin my addiction to STALKER by getting me addicted to something else, and then Reasonableman mentions STALKER.
Speaking of which, I got a new mod. It adds all the removed monsters, replaces all the textures with better ones, allows you to leave the NPP, and
PUTS BLOWOUTS BACK INTO THE GAME.
Nothing else like it. The entire world goes red three times, each time for about a second, then completely black for about five. Everything goes back to normal, like nothing happened. All the NPCs are like "wtf?!" and start looking around. Then there's this hellish roaring from the sky, the wind picks up, everyone spazzes out and starts running for cover, everything gets this aqua-bluish tint, then blood red, everyone outside starts bleeding to death and taking radiation(Once, I ran outside during the worst part of a blowout to save a fellow STALKER who had been wounded by bandits. He thanked me by getting killed by a boar). It's intense, and it shuffles all the monsters.
Crazy stuff, man. Crazy stuff. The mod is called Oblivion Lost, and it turns that weird half-translated shooter game into STALKER, the game I spent a week anticipating the moment I'd buy it.
