Yeah, so I got the game today.
Even without a graphics card, the game is looking good. And that's really saying something. I heard that since the game was originally intended to be released earlier, the original requirements were also much lower. Not meaning it won't look so great when you have the proper hardware though, because it will.
Gameplay's your usual FPS, but this time with that open-ended gameplay found in games like GTA. You choose your own missions, your allies and such.
Haven't gotten that far in the game to comment on the story yet, but yes, it's set in a post-apocalyptic Chernobyl, in the Zone around the nuclear fallout.
Looking awesome so far.
On a side note, this game is almost 100% Eastern European (or yes, I'm going to be a collectivist know-it-all for simplicity: Russian
). The credits all have names ending with 'kov', 'yav' or 'y'. Haha.
