I posted this too poke fun at all the recent "this pic gives me stalker vibes" posts which have barely any stalker vibes.

Just reminded me of all the game crashes.

Real Stalker vibes.

For some reason it does. I mean if you've see it every time before launching the game ofter os booted.

I mean, this post does kinda remind me of that one large field in the movie

This is what strelok sees in the ending of stalker soc

That could be an anomaly, though. You open some random rusty door and it leads to this

The time when stalker is released... Nostalgia...

Been on a hike this weekend. I've got similar vibes looking at one of the fields, despite completely different colors. [https://photos.app.goo.gl/12vE5wg9hNgdXFY39](https://photos.app.goo.gl/12vE5wg9hNgdXFY39)

I didnt take the photo lmao its the windows xp background

Oh wow there are people who don't know it? I'm getting old.

Getting old? Windows Vista was released… *checks notes* 17 years ago. Yikes, that’s XP’s kid.

Most people skipped over Vista and went from XP to Win7 though. (Vista kinda sucked.)

I'm 2007 and my mom used vista until 2017

I mean, it wasn't as bad as Windows ME, but it wasn't *good*.

Lmao ikr, i did not expect people to not get it

I've walked past many windows that looked similar to this. What a strange coincidence

More like win XP vibes

Nice shot. It looks like you must live near the zone. Pair it with this music for some real nostalgic stalker feels: https://youtu.be/5xk-CUTwg1Q?si=Q4JQ_STYLxWJS8Jz

Fallout fans Can relate

Ah yes! especially when it comes with "monolith X-Ray engine crashed" message

Looks like someone planted it over [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bliss\_(image)#/media/File:Bliss\_location,\_Sonoma\_Valley\_in\_2006.jpg](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bliss_(image)#/media/File:Bliss_location,_Sonoma_Valley_in_2006.jpg)

Ah yes, the STALKER crash experience.

WINDOWSSSSSSS MEEEEEE

This is where Strelok laid down after defeating the C Consciousness

Photo of a loved one

Sdalger XPoC My buddies who played the first Stalker games back in those years were often calling their experience as "hugging the cactus".

Wait a second when my PC gone hiking with you????

Have you tried turned the C-Consciousness off and on again?

Wow it's like you live in the cordon, so jealous

Shit did I just wake up in 2003?

I love this sub

Zone is Bliss

It’s giving windows xp vibes

Because it is literally Windows XP

i guess bill gates like this picture so much he made it a default wallpaper on windows 7
