Some STALKER interview somewhere

[Game -> Update]

It's <a href="http://www.iamstalker.com/modules/news/ ... =356">over here</a>, translated from <a href="http://dirty.ru/comments/18771">this</a>.<blockquote>* 'Dismemberment' (the situation when the body parts could be separated from each other with bloody mess) will be only in anomalies. If it are natural phenomena: everything is OK, but you can't cut a hand, for example, from another stalker. You know, there'll be an ability to eat and to cook food so there's a danger of cannibalism, and that's not good.</blockquote>Says you.

Sad news.

Utter wankers, they are. How isn't potential cannibalism a worthwhile theme for virtually any post-apocalyptic styled scenario ? Twats.

Baldurs Gate 2 featured an armour cuirass made of cured human flesh.

And we can't eat from a human femur bone in Stalker? Pah.

Anyway I wouldn't trust anything that interview says, the translation looks a bit odd... it now claims there is a 'skills system' in the game... That is the exact opposite of what the team have always insisted.

I honestly cannot see why they have decided to disrupt any sense of immersion so violently by making humans/humanoids impossible to dismember, when they could simply prevent the player from attempting to consume certain types of flesh with a succinct 'you cannot bring yourself to eat this', or similar.

If this is their true course of action, they are fools.

From what i've seen over a year watching stalker, the team are all kept in a cage working all day and night, and those who speak out on the progress of the game have little clue what is actually going on... things contradict too often in their interviews, and their reasoning for various things, including the lack of co-op and this new lack of dismemberment never actually make any sense...
