For those wondering; "Man of Prey" is the name of this game. I want to play it, looks like Silent Storm/7.62 with an actually unique plot.

Man of Prey was developed by the same developer who made 7.62, Apeiron. A proper working English version is very hard to find on the Internet. Here's an English LP of the game.

I am curious to hear from some of the pro-Putin Russians in this thread exactly why it is such a bad idea for Russia to join NATO and the EU.

Anti-Western Russian publications and websites justify Russian anti-Western foreign policies by claiming that that the Western world have always regarded and will always regard Russia and Russians like Western colonial empires viewed other non-European nations and civilizations - as backwater primitive savages. According to them, trying to appease the Western powers is fruitless, because they will always look down on Russia. Only a strong authoritarian Russia can successfully defend its independence and national interests and force the West to respect them, they say.

A very good example of the views of the anti-Western crowd in Russia on maintaining good relations with the West is the book "Marauder" by Berkem al-Atomi (a Tatar writer, by the way).
According to the plot, the liberal Russian government which maintained good relations with the West accepted NATO's request to accommodate a Western military task force, under the pretext of guarding Russian nuclear weapons against terrorists. After deploying in Russia, NATO forces swiftly took control of the Russian government, dismantled the Russian army, declared that Russian sovereignty should be "temporarily" suspended until "the rule of law" in Russia is restored, divided the country into occupation zones and started ruling it like Combines from Half-Life 2: they took control of Russian cities, began strip mining Russian natural resources and left the rest of the country to its own devices, responding with punitive expeditions to any resistance to Western forces. It is also implied midway through the book that NATO killed everyone in the European part of Russia with biological weapons (also like the Combines from Half-Life 2). The protagonists is a Tatar resident of a small Russian town of Tridtsatka located in Southern Siberia (Big Thirty in the video game adaptation) who struggles to survive after the town and its vicinity descends into anarchy after the fall of the Russian government.
The intro of the video game adaptation of the novel, Man of Prey sums the plot nicely.

It could be provocateurs planted there by west to tarnish russian reputation.

Either my english suck so much, or you just refuse to carefully read what I write.
Notice that you was perpetually most demeaning poster towards russians/russia in this thread.
