There are not many details about the project yet, but touchy fans have already found something to dislike the new part for. Duckling syndrome or just a desire to attract attention?
Before the release Stalkers 2 for another whole year, but the project began to receive its waves of negativity from the first minutes after the release. The Ukrainian fan community was outraged by the fact that the trailer was released in Russian. In their opinion, since the team decided to submit materials with English subtitles, they could and should have used Ukrainian.
Also, the problem arose with the name of the project itself. In the game STALKER 2: Heart of Chernobyl fans confused by the word "Chernobyl". The authors used the English version of this word, while the Ukrainian word in transliteration is written "ChOrnobyl".
Of course, there is no negative message in the actions of the developers. The word "Chernobyl" is written in this way so that the global consumer can better perceive the project. If they spelled it with an "O", then fans may have taken it as a spelling mistake.
There is also no language problem within the game itself. The developers have already announced that Stalkers and other characters will communicate both Russian and Ukrainian, with subtitles for everyone.
The real problem was that because of the trailer in Russian and the word "Chernobyl" in this transliteration, foreign fans decided that now the project is being developed in Russia. However, GSC Game World quickly debunked this myth and asked gamers to carefully check the facts.
