(from original post in 2021) a game that could've been great if it had more content. I hope it gets dlc to expand on its mechanics
(from 100% post on august 8th 2021) not that hard considering most of the achievements are for completing all of the story missions but GG regardless

Story was okay, gameplay was okay but got repetitive and it was a blast to explore a 3d scanned Chernobyl, base building i felt it was lacking, just used to craft stuff and i felt it could've been a little bit more important/bigger side of the gameplay. The choices and going back to change them is an interesting idea.
I honestly had to push myself through to completion on this one. It's rough around the edges. I went in expecting S.T.A.L.K.E.R and that is not what I got, which was disappointing considering the marketing heavily leans on S.T.A.L.K.E.R
Chernobylite is a fun romp across the Chornobyl exclusion zone that you can easily 100% in 16 hours. It does become quite stale towards the tail end when you figure everything out already, but thanks to its design missions can be rushed through easily. The last mission is quite a fun 'suicide mission' where companions you gathered throughout the game can die, Mass Effect 2 style. The combat is very 'ehhhh', the story is fun with a last-second twist that might not land depending on what you expected from it, and the atmosphere and exploration aspects are second to none. Although, you cannot shake the feeling that this game could have been so much more. I pray for a Chernobylite 2 with an open world, expanded building, and more enemy variety. I am not crazy about open-world games, but this would be perfect for that, or a STALKER-like open areas.
tatyana trying to sound ominous and ultimately failing is just so cute and funny
This was fun. It is very rough around the edges but it was a fun experience nonetheless. The day-mission mechanic was pretty cool and the vase building was interesting enough to keep me hooked
