Chinese police is hunting down people pirating Squid Game - because authors smuggled in subtle negative commentary on CCP and North Korea.
Any source of that claim?
I cannot find the source concerning Chinese police at the moment. However - North Korea has even less tolerance when it comes to piracy:

I asked about Chinese, but it seems you just pulled it out of your ass.

China arrested 14 people connected to movie sharing site YYeTs.com around the peak of Squid Game popularity - which is not available in any legal way in China.

Squid Game is censored term on Chinese e-commerce platforms.

But you are free to believe that it happened because Chinese government cares about South Korean intelectual property.

It seems that Codex does not like some types of YouTube links: https://www.youtube.com/live/sSYWtW7t0cQ?feature=share

oh ffs, now you provide 2h long video of these two retards who often take shit out of their ass about china for clicks. I hoped for some article or chinese video, but you take literally two worst dudes you could about it. If it was at least China Uncensored - which is clearly anti-CCP, but it does its research*, but no, these two complete tards are so full of shit I'm not gonna watch another minute of them.

* - at least when it's not about their sponsors :M

The only vaguely related thing I can find is news articles saying Chinese search engines have removed search results for anything Squid Game related.

It will be interesting to see the effect the leak has (if it happens). If they've actually got something decent it will likely be beneficial for the game.

I remember similar happened with the Deus Ex HR leak way back. It was so successful in upping low expectations of the game that people even suggested the leak was done intentionally by the devs.

Fucking ukrop trash made me completely disinterested in the game.
Shame.
It looks like some generic military FPS. So unlike the original greatness of S.T.A.L.K.E.R.

Stalker Anomaly is the true sequel to Stalker.
Which is a pity, due to the amount of Modder's Autism in that.
Get your Metro shit and trash can diving nonsense out of my Stalker

I mean, I appreciate Anomaly for keeping the series alive and it does have a lot of nice gun porn, but it really needs to have some of the fat trimmed away.

Never tried S.T.A.L.K.E.R mods, but I heard there is quite a lot to choose from.

The problem with Anomaly is the modding community are obsessed with turning it into Tarkov-lite.

Imagine if they turned their attention to making new storylines or other content that is actually relevant to the series.

Yeah, they also add shit like Lurkers and metro armour sets, and they stick out like a sore thumb.
Modder's Autism is a bitch.
One of these days they're going to add drug-addicted lizards because one of the leads developed a scaly fetish.

Or another 10 million AK variants ripped from various games that all have identical stats.

Don't get me wrong, I do enjoy a bit of gun porn, but stalker gun mods take it way too far.

Yes, you do have quite a selection.
From what I remember trying :
I thought Automn Aurora was quite nice, but it has a nasty bug where if you have more than 5 or so active quests it breaks your save. It also added Metro skins which I wasn't a fan of.
Zone of Alienation is great if you're into gun porn, but it's super unstable.
L.U.R.K is also very much a gun-porn mod and they changed it so that bullets are what provides the damage stat as opposed to the gun itself. It also comes with a graphical overhaul.
MISERY is...aptly named. It's basically a hard-core difficulty mod and if I remember correctly was the basis of Anomaly. It also added a bunch of pointless mechanics that found their way into Anomaly, but Anomaly does come with a bunch of settings that allows you to configure them. There's no option to leave out the Metro bits or Hip though.

Misery 1.2 had much less autism than version 2.

That said I've never really enjoyed the "hardcore realism" type mods that much. More combat danger early on makes the progression via gear feel more meaningful, but I've always disliked the survival 'tisms that so many modders seem to love.

I hope we get to kill many russgoblins in this game.
It's set in Ukraine. So logically you'd be killing mostly Ukrainians as well as the Ukrainian military, like in the first game.
:troll:

They'll just say the game is set concurrent with the Ukraine conflict and the Russian army has invaded the zone.

Maybe we'll get to see gauss rifle-armed Ukrainian exo-infantry taking out tanks.

Yeah, they could do that. I hope not though; that would just make Stalker into another military shooter / call of duty wannabe, complete with a plucky hero fighting absurd numbers of enemy soldiers instead of some poor schmuck trying to survive in the zone and find answers.

No, we will get instagram/OnlyFans bitches posing in military gear while shouting "SLAVA UKRAINI!".
Zelensky will also give you quests while high on cocaine.
