Very much into Stalker 2 now. Plenty of largely forgivable jankiness, but they're pretty good on getting patches out. Find a few things pretty annoying tho...
The lighting balance is weird. Even in broad daylight, interiors of the smallest buildings with the door wide open are so dark you have to constantly turn the torch on and off. Light sources also seem to fall off far too quickly, only illuminating a small radius around them. Increasing gamma doesn't really help.
There's no prone mechanic, which is a really weird omission considering the game can otherwise be played somewhat stealthily.
Worst of all, having to chose between authentic Ukrainian and awful English voice acting. I can't for the life of me understand why they didn't just get the Ukrainian actors to also record their lines in English rather than use native English speakers with all sorts of random accents. Having to rely on subtitles for cut scenes is perfectly acceptable, but needing to read stuff at the bottom of the screen is shit during gameplay. Lots of background dialog is also just lost.
7.5/10 so far.
