If your PC isn't powerful enough to handle Stalker 2's impeccably janky vibes, I'm here to tell you that the best way to play it is on GeForce Now

Stalker 2: Heart of Chernobyl.

Stalker 2: Heart of Chornobyl is out now and you can play it via GeForce Now. This is great news for people like me with crappy laptops, as while Stalker 2 is a fantastic, atmospheric experience, it's also very buggy and demanding even on mid-range computers.

In Stalker 2 review, Andy wrote it was "The best but most broken game I've played all year." After reviewing the game myself, I agree. I played on a laptop with an i7 core and an Nvidia RTX 2070, but even on medium settings there was frequent texture pop, my frame rate tanked whenever I went to an area with a lot of NPCs, and I lost track of how many times the audio for my guns simply stopped working.
