    If you love a great game where the biggest questions you face are where do i go next? What do i do next? Where is anything? Whats going on? Why did i instantly die this time? Then this game is for you.

    Bought this and Last Light redux for 8 bucks. More cutscenes than action. Dark, vague shooter. Got sick of cutscene after cutscene after cutscene, quit with about 30 minutes of cutscenes/5 minutes of boring action. No strategy whatsoever, I honestly suspect that any good reviews are coming from those promoting the game, it was that bad for me, but for only 8 bucks, I suppose i could countBought this and Last Light redux for 8 bucks.

Uninstalled after 35 minutes...... obviously not for me. No exploration, no freedom, no movement, just scripted 1-2-3 choices to advance to next cutscene. Die-reload-otherchoice-cutscene. Hated it. More an interactive movie than a game in my view. Expand

    Metro 2033 Redux still has annoying bugs like NPCs getting stuck and auto save in locations where you can't get out. And sometimes you die, because your gas filter runs out during a cut scene... right after the game autosaved.

    The game is great at its core, but all this crap in an "improved" version is absolutely unacceptable. Quality assurance and testing for this game have completely failed.

    Bad game in my opinion, boring gameplay, not much to explore and what you explore is just so simple that it doesn't make up for low/bad exploration part of game, game is just not good, only good thing is atmosphere and music but for that I can just listen to soundtrack, performance on pc is not good. Not recommended!

    Not sure what Iam doing or where Iam going. This game is too linear and confusing, hardly know what Iam doing and can't explore on my own, Iam always following someone else around or in some vehicle.

    Don't like that you can't save or reload whenever you want. There is only auto save and reload from last checkpoint if you die. I got to Lost tunnels followed Bourbon and he's turning

    I got to Lost tunnels followed Bourbon and he's turning the wheel to open a gate and all of a sudden I get weird cutscenes and my character falls to the ground gasping and dies, think it's something to do with the gas mask and then reload from last checkpoint and the same thing happens, Iam stuck. This is frustrating and annoying as it reloads just before I die and I can't do anything to fix it as you only get one reload checkpoint.

    That really pisses me off, not worth wasting my time on this.
    I don't like this game at all, it's strange like Iam just in some movie I barely have any control over.
    The only good thing about the game is the atmosphere but I hate this game otherwise, it's just horrible and frustrating and not fun at all.

    I got both Metro games in a bundle for 90% off. I expect Last Light will be more of the same rubbish.
    Absolutely terrible game experience.

    Combat is boring, the story isn't special, and worst of all the company tries to hide from criticism.

    Terrible level design. The problem I have with these games is getting lost in a linear designed campaign. Where do you go what are you supposed to do? Dead City is a perfect example of this. You can give all the accolades you want. But honestly does anyone take the time to actually think about guiding the player on their objective with these games?

    Whoof. Glad I didn't buy the whole Redux package. This game doesn't work for my PC, or quite a few other PCs for that matter. On paper, I should be able to run this software with no issue, but it crashes immediately. Hoping to play a highly regarded game, redone for a decent price. They've had plenty of time to address these issues. Not impressed.

    I you like games that tell you exactly where to walk, have no scavenging, economy and strategy: by all means. Try this when you are fighting in the dark: shoot 1 bullet and all the enemies will walk towards you and you can kill them without moving with a headshot on their helmet lights. FUN!

    It's a great game.

    Unfortunately, regardless of it's good points, having a moral system that forcibly chooses the ending for you and constrains how you're allowed to play/what you're allowed to do. Unforgivable. Automatic 0.

    I hate when you die, and try the same scene from the same check point over and over again till you finally find the one option that works. I also hate when you bump into stuff and have to wiggle the stick to get your guy to walk down the little path without falling or some other thing like that. The Audio is terrible, the words cant be understood.

    Very atmospheric post-apocalyptic first person shooter and quite scary as you navigate the tunnels of the underground Metro of Moscow. For many levels, the only way to approach combat is stealth or you will die quickly. The lighter is a nice touch when you use it to burn cobwebs in the tunnels.

    I found the difficulty a little bit broken at times especially during the "War" level.

    I found the difficulty a little bit broken at times especially during the "War" level. When the Russians spot you, they announce "He's HERE!!!" in a heavy russian accent which was quite humorous. However, if you come out of stealth you will quickly perish.

    If you enjoy Wolfenstein, you will probably like this as well but there's definitely less ammo. Part of the puzzle is finding out where to go through the campaigns linear levels.

    Probably the hardest first-person shooter of last gen. For some reason, Metro Exodus looks more forgiving but that's probably wishful thinking.

    If I wanted to watch a movie, I would watch a movie. This game is PACKED with boring and unskippable cutscenes in horrifically annoying Russian accents. When you can actually play, the gameplay is clunky and clumsy. Terrible game, poor execution and absolutely zero fun.

    As others said, it's a pretty game. Nice gunplay, good story, creepy atmosphere. Proper difficulty options for players. All around a pleasant experience. A nice upgrade over the original.

    ЕСЛИ ГОВОРИТЬ ПРО ДВИЖОК И ГРАФИКУ ТО ОРИГИНАЛЬНЫЙ МЕТРО 2033 - 2010 ГОДА ГОРАЗДО ЛУЧШЕ ЧЕМ ПЕРЕИЗДАНИЕ METRO REDUX.
    В ОРИГИНАЛЕ ( БОЛЬШЕ ПОЛИГОНОВ В МОДЕЛЯХ, ПРОРИСОВКА И ДЕТАЛИЗАЦИЯ ЛУЧШЕ ) ГРАФИКА В РАЗЫ ЛУЧШЕ ЧЕМ В ПЕРЕИЗДАНИЕ.

    If you don't have 2033 this would be a great time to get it, if you do, like me, it is a total rip-off and a waste of your time and money. i'm so angry and disappointed, I wish i'd seen a review like this before i bought it because i had suspicions but there wasn't any to be found. Don't buy it if you own the original!!

    For me the only good thing was the graphic.
    A linear tunnel, with skippable enemies, awful AI, shooting mechanics disappointing and anonymous settings.

    I've never seen a game so buggy. almost every mission has a npc that you have to follow and each time he gets stuck somewhere and you have to reload the game until there is one who constantly does not want to move and cannot move forward.

    One of the most atmospheric and immersive first person shooters of recent years becomes even better, by enriching its gameplay, normalizing its performance and enhancing its graphics, with the use of the latest 4A engine features. Its main disadvantage is the discontinuation of price discount for those who already own the original Metro 2033 upon official release.

    A valuable remake that makes the original Metro feel complete on PC.
