Ten years earlier, when at GSC Game World we started developing the renowned S.T.A.L.K.E.R. game series and continued working on it until December 2011 when the studio was unexpectedly shut down and the S.T.A.L.K.E.R. 2 project - frozen," it reads. We did not reach agreement with the rights owner regarding the use of S.T.A.L.K.E.R. brand, that's why we made the decision to move forward as an independent studio with a new project. That day became our starting point for Vostok Games." It turns out that Survarium is a free-to-play MMO being developed at start-up Vostok Games, founded by key GSC staff.
Oh FFS, here I was expecting to see at least one decent game in the future. Silly me. I was just clicking on "General" when I saw this thread title under gaming causing much redirect clicking (inaccurate and too slow of course), and hoping that this was the previous thread with an update, but alas.
i only walked around the first one for fifteen minutes and never installed clear sky or metro 2033, have owned for over a year. sorry about cancelled games though, regardless.
