i watched the video, seems good. he said nothing about if this mod still has the original story and missions or if this is just some fucking around in the stalker world. i'm guessing its the later? also nothing about how big the world is, is this all 3 games or just the first..

It's basically just a collection of curated gameplay and graphic mods for anomaly, though I think it also includes the LTTZ directors cut mod which expands the story a little bit.
Don't expect much from the story side with anomaly stuff.
There are only two significant storyline mods that I'm aware of for Anomaly, Artefact Hunters and the Duty Expansion.
Artefact Hunters is still Russian only and only has a very poor machine translation, which is a shame as apparently it's fairly well written and interesting to play.
Duty expansion seems interesting but I've not checked it out personally.
Duty Expansion has a wahmen dood
Though Anomaly already introduced Hip, so...
Thirsty modders gonna thirst I guess.
That said, I'm more interested in Artefact Hunters anyway. Assuming it ever gets a full translation.
One of the guys over at RPGCodex recently took part in a big translation effort to give Golden Sphere/Golden Ball (One of the biggest story focused TCs/Mods) a proper non machine English translation, so I live in hope.
I love the Stalker: Anomaly GAMMA mod collection. Makes for a completely different experience than vanilla game, though I'm still just at the beginning, getting my bearings.
Joining their Discord is recommended since you're bound to have questions about the mod.
Man, I want to give this another play-through with mods, but this is quite daunting.
Any suggestion for a start ?
It depends on what you're looking for, as the game can get as complex/hardcore as you want (to the point of becoming an insane modception )
The original STALKER + mods is a different experience from Anomaly, which is a big survival-based sandbox that includes all the areas from the three games and randomized quests alongside a (rather weak) story mode. If you just want to replay the vanilla game with fixes and better visuals, AMK Autumn Edition for example is a good choice - otherwise, you'll have to snag Anomaly and see which pack/combo (Escape from Pripyat, GAMMA, Old World etc.) provides the approach and features that you like.
AMK autumn edition is a bit more than vanilla with fixes. It's the rather heavy slavtism AMK mod which has been merged with Autumn Aurora.
Certainly nice looking as shoc mods go, but also not that vanilla considering the drastic changes AMK makes to almost every aspect of the gameplay. AMK is pretty good as overhauls go though, if somewhat difficult to start.
Just finished the first stalker. Omg this has taken a lot of years, but i did it. And while it was pretty good, i failed at grabbing it's storytelling. In the end i was confused about everything. Strelok etc as it didn't seem to conclude anything. It was so fast paced you kinda forget about it.

Which ending did you get? The wish granter is the fake/bad ending.
First i got the one where i entered the machine, then i took the wish grater and wished to be rich of all things... in this damn world
Just in case you missed any of the context:
Spoiler:
You are Strelok. After previously reaching the centre of the zone, he gets brainwashed into a sleeper agent by Monolith, but his brainwashing is broken by memory loss and being ordered to kill himself.
C-Consciousness is a group of scientists trying to use the Noosphere above the zone to harness a collective consciousness to control humanity/the Zone. Canonically Strelok destroys them at the end of SHOC, which turns out to be a bad choice as it ends up making the Zone even more unstable and blowouts etc even more powerful.

I assumed i was Strelok since quite early in the game. It was just everyone talked about him as someone else, even someone they'd seen so i was forced to put that thought aside.
I'm playing Anomaly at the moment, Gamma is a custom modpack using Anomaly as a base that supposedly makes the game more immersive and hardcore.
In the end they both come from the precursor, Misery, so if you ever played Misery or Call of Chernobyl and you liked them, then you'd probably like these two as well. You can find a good explanation in this reddit post:
Played recently as in 4-5 months back.
In the end got annoyed because expert tools weren't spawning mo matter where I went and I sort of dropped it because of that.
Started an Anomaly Ultrazone (check the video a few pages back) and did a sweet military play through, ended up having much more fun.
Too bad that the author from that modpack has been silent for the last 3-4 months, was really looking forward to that winter zone modpack

This is an old video i made 6 months ago.
Decided to upload it now as i was to busy with private stuff and have not posted anything new.
In the meantime i started using diferent snow textures, now i added Project Inverno to the modpack and redone the weather files from Inverno to get the look i vanted in combination with Agressor Reshade.
first i will upload a few old videos that i made a while ago than i will make some now videos with the curren state of the modpack with new textures and new weapon sounds.
All the weapon sounds for the player have been remade and they sound brutal and loud.
no more will the weapons sound like toys or bb guns.
Stay tuned for updates after i upload some of these older videos.
