STALKER2: Interesting, these screenshots (from official old game teasers) are made on UE 4 or UE 5.1?

They have a different color and light balance.

Screenshots are from official STALKER2 early teasers (~5 years ago), game started developing at UE 4

After some playing of S.T.A.L.K.E.R.: Shadow of Chornobyl - Enhanced Edition I dont liked how it looks - it is too dark almost everywhere.

Original trilogy series was designed by level designers and artists to have some places to be bright and safe, some places were dark and scare. This is how atmosphere is achieved.

Enhanced Edition by default make all places too dark.

After some testing I find way how to make game look like Original, but with graphics upgrades that doesnt change spirit of Original game and only add best things without broke anything.

Game Settings to look like Original

Go to Game settings, in Graphics tab set:

  • General quality: Maximum

Scroll to bottom of settings and press Advanced Settings button:

  • Grass Shadows: Disable
  • Screen Space Global Illumination: Disable

below this setting will be showed hidden setting, enable it:

  • SSAO: HBAO
  • Depth Field: Disable
  • Antialiasing: Disable
  • Upscaling method: Disable

Switch to Game tab of settings:

  • Camera Bob: Enable

Switch to Controls tab of settings:

  • Switch run by one key: Enable

Why?

Grass Shadows - due to geometry of grass 3D models each grass show very dark block-like shadows even in sunny weather, so you look at mess with grass and dark blocks below it. Original game doesnt show shadows on grass like that.

Screen Space Global Illumination - this technique is more advanced than SSAO, but is not implemented well: trees and many objects became as large dark blocks. SSAO gives soft occlusion and game look much easier for eyes and looks like Original.

Is it worth playing Enhanced Edition compared to Original?

After these changes I would say "yes", it is absolutely different look: dark places are dark, bright stay bright. Game looks and feels almost exactly like Original but with slight improvements like light shafts that doesnt change original game artistic design.

Do graphics improved in Enhanced Edition?

Yes, for example people around fire will drop soft shadows on walls, cables and obstacles will drop shadows from different light sources. Sun light will drop light shafts when light comes in more dark places.

Is it really good and all bugs fixed?

No, STALKER series games always have bugs and Enhanced Edition too: for example in tunnel with electric anomaly under rails near village with Sidorovich dead dude start talking to me while I started to loot him (see 5th screenshot). This surprise was not expected at all. Bricks have been planted immediately.
