Over at Gamespot there's a realy impressive preview of S.T.A.L.K.E.R.: Oblivion Lost, the upcoming UE FPS/RPG (how many acronyms can I fit in one news post?) and it's definitely worth a read. Here's your snippet, from Oleg Yavorsky, PR dude for the game:
The advantage of a nonlinear storyline is that it's impossible to see everything within one play-through. In every subsequent play-through, you will see life in the Zone from a slightly different perspective. Only the key events and certain locations with strong storyline-imposed parts will go unchanged, while the rest will live and evolve in a nonscripted and dynamic way. We are planning to have more than eight different endings for the game. The ending will depend on which actions you've taken throughout the course of the game. The game's main story will remain enigmatic and will not fully develop until you're playing through the last parts of the game. We are attempting to make this story mysterious, strong, and dramatic.So, go check it out here. If Deus Ex 2 doesn't satisfy your role-playing shooter desires, then hopefully S.T.A.L.K.E.R. will.
