There is a reason why I was looking for a Russian-language version of the game. I am currently playing the first Stalker (yes, I do !), and the appeal of the game is an immersion into the atmosphere. A great part of the immersion is the swearing of NPC gopniks (hoodlooms) in Russian, like "Hey, you, come here !" or "Guys, I caught a bullet !" which is very life-like.
I was hoping to find the same kind of narrative in Cryostasis where yells and comments in Russian are very life-like, and this would immerse me into the game (maybe the NPC sailors drink vodka, pat each other on backs and shout the comments in Russian). But maybe this is not that kind of a game where there is a place for the Russian comments. For example, I played the English version "You Are Empty", and did not find it used much of a sound.
Anyway, I intend first finish playing the Stalker, and only then get Cryostasis. Which will take probably at least couple of more months.
