You received a lot of new stuff from us with the last major update. But the biggest (and the most intense for us) is the VR device. This small, inconspicuous toy that you can place at your base introduces a new challenge to the game. It’s not easy, but gives a lot of fun and satisfaction.
Chernobylite is filled to the brim with all sorts of references and easter eggs that harken to the real world as well as pop culture. The example with Kalder and the already widely known quote from HBO Chernobyl "3,6... Not great, not terrible" are among them. However, believe us, there is more. Today we are going to present to you only some of them.
We've proven in previous reports that in order to survive in the Zone, you need more than to fire an entire moon clip from a revolver. First of all, you need to use your head. Igor seems to be perfect for the job - he’s a scientist, not a soldier. On the other hand, you also need weapons to protect yourself from NAR mercenaries and monsters. Again: Igor is a scientist, not a soldier.
Stalkers! The latest free content update, Red Trees, has launched for PC on Steam, GOG.com, and Epic Games Store. It’s…
For some, it may come as a shock to what we’re going to write now, but it is 100% true: Chernobylite is not a game about weapons. It is primarily a story about people who find themselves in a very strange situation; the story of an obsessed man who wants to achieve his goal very much and has tools that will allow him to do it.
Chernobylite is a story about a search for lost love, a fight against unknown outliers out of this world and a mysterious organization that wants to use the knowledge gained in Chernobyl for its own interests. However, it is not enough just to move forward blindly firing your gun - everything needs to be carefully planned, and this can take days or even weeks. Thus, a seemingly simple (?) task becomes an attempt to survive in a completely unknown environment.
The world in Chernobylite is not only a cluster of polygons and textures merged together by lines of code. It is also the experience of visiting buildings dominated by vegetation, crumbling walls, and a unique atmosphere that is difficult to imitate. And these cannot be recreated while sitting simply at a desk.
In the last post we elaborated on how the Chernobylite world was born and what was the origin of the idea of dividing it into several areas. Today we will explain why we put the open world idea aside and what it has to do with technology. We will also share how dividing the map into smaller parts benefits the player.
