I still can't get over how "wrong" it sounds and feels to have native English speaking accents for the voice work instead of the heavy Ukrainian and Russian accents. This is one to play with Ukrainian VA and English subtitles for sure.

I noticed this, too. "FUCK HIM UP WITH A GRENADE!", "Cover me, I'll hide"; I need a Ukrainian language setting for these voicelines. I need that panic "Oh shit!" feeling of not really knowing what the AI were shouting about like I had in SoC, and then getting surprised when they had flanked and crept up around me. That was pretty core to my experience, while the accents built a lot of immersion and feel in the world.

For sure, STALKER is just not the same without Cheeki Breeki!

Counterpoint. Get out of here stalker.

I think Stalker 2 needs a mix and match option where we can choose the language of the dialogue line by line. Or at least a future "meme" language option where the best lines of every translation is used.

I think that was supposed to be an attempt at an accent?
