People don't know this?

What the fuck?

Yeah that's what I was thinking. Just a big "no shit" from me.

People don't know this?

What the fuck?

I know. It's fucking old news. Hell, even the escapist news team (who tend to be several hours later than Kotaku on all of their stories) did a story on this like 2 years ago. Blood y hell people.

Why do our uneducated minds make you angry?

it's the ferris wheel. that ferris wheel will forever ingrain the whole tragedy of pripyat forever in my mind.

Yeah, I remember that mission, big deal. They went and did research on a location. Lots of game developers do.

come on mate, you don't have to be so pessimistic. So he just found out that it's a real location, which usually will blow someone's mind, since a lot more developers don't bother to do research into locations.

Common knowledge being 'revealed' to the masses like this makes me angry for the sole reason that the OP makes it out to be new news, not old.

Haha, to a sizable minority of us it is new news. To me it was, so I apologise for sharing this knowledge with other Escapists. After all, to the people who didnt know they are very grateful for the topic being created because it is valuable information to gain. God forbid posting 'old news'...
