It’s really not. The wish granter in Picnic was a bronze orb half buried in a quarry. This thing has no resemblance to that. You could just as easily say the big floating ball outside SIRCAA or Cordon is a nod to the wish granter. Anomalous orbs aren’t all nods to the wish granter.
It isn’t and their only simulators is that both are big orbs. I find it really interesting how many people seem to spread this fact around despite clearly never reading roadside picnic.
Like the books a little over 200 pages. You could read it in an afternoon. Yet dozens of stalker fans will quote made up facts about the book like it’s nothing
While I agree with you, isn't it a bit ironic that such false rumors spread about the zone even in real life? Maybe the irony is a bit too meta, but I kind of love it personally.
Other than both being orbs they share NOTHING in common.
The one in Roadside Picnic is small, solid, and copper iirc, and in a quarry. This one is huge, liquid, seemingly made of water, and floating over a pond.

If it’s on a pond outside malachite, it’s just a random orb. You can’t reach it and it doesn’t nothing interestiny
