Books that evoke the feeling of playing pic related? Anything set in the post-Soviet world will do

stalker games fail to capture the feel of that book on a fundamental level

they were never meant to be vidya versions of roadside picnic, devs just took some ideas and concepts from it, devs never attempted to capture the feel of the book in the first place, it's just that your point of criticism is invalid

Metro 2033 is decent and surprisingly well-translated.

But if you're a fan of STALKER, then it oughta to be worth it to read Roadside Picnic due to its influence right?

OP should also read The Doomed City if he's interested in post-soviet stuff. Fantastic and underrated book.
