Fighting off drowsiness in the Poppy Field
When you approach the Poppy Field in Stalker 2: Heart of Chornobyl, your first impression might be that it’s a quaint and scenic place, especially with the red flowers all in bloom. Don’t let the majestic beauty of this location fool you, because walking in the fields actually causes your character to get drowsy. At first, Skif’s vision will go dim, and you’ll even hear voices at certain areas. At certain points, you might even get teleported to odd locations, such as rooftops.
To combat drowsiness, you need to drink a Non-Stop Energy Drink. However, the effects are only temporary, and you really can’t stay out in the open for long. Otherwise, your character will collapse and die, and you have to reload your last save.
