    With great graphics, artistic visuals and excellent attention to detail, dark and mature storyline, intense atmosphere amplified by realistic gameplay elements, this is the only game which makes you feel like you really are in a post apocalyptic world fighting for survival.

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

    A really good, story driven FPS.

    I am not a big shooter player, but in my eyes this was almost a perfect FPS game.
    And I am not even a big fan of the post apocalyptic scenario...

    Good story telling, great graphics, great game play.

    Nice FPS game with awesome graphics. Atmosphere is really good and story is original and unpredictable. The design of monsters is interesting. The major drawback of this game is that some shootings are really boring and uselessly prolonged. fairly well done remake

    I'm not kidding if I say I found just 4 minor flaws on the entire game (excluding gameplay, style and other subjective things each player may like, love or hate) which are:
    > quite slow loading times (played on a SSD disk, so can't imagine that on old disks)
    > surface "levels" have often a lot of "secrets" which would be nice if you didn't have limited time (especially on survival, sneaking around, waiting for openings), not to mention that sometimes you can't say if you're going after a "secret" or the actual end of the level
    > 3D speech sound is kinda "faulty" (at least it is on linux) to a point you almost can't ear someone talking to you if you're facing the opposite direction
    > monster spawns are sometimes "triggered", meaning that as soon as you do something a couple of monsters spawns behind you.

    This... these are the only objective flaws I was able to find on this title, everything else is pure gold.
    Gorgeous graphics and concept art, good and fitting music, a plot that is just as simple as it is amazing, extremely good work depicting characters personalities with just a few "hints"

    I would also like to point out that the game has a VERY good graphical engine and not only I was able to get ~20% more avg fps than, for example, Bioshock Infinite (both at maximum settings) but Metro 2033 Redux NEVER stuttered, like never EVER.

    Finally there's one thing I'd like to write about just because, as funny as it sounds, prevented me to play this title for almost an year; (on linux) if I kept my USB Arcade Stick plugged, Metro fps were locked to 11~13 meaning it was totally unplayable, once I unplugged the stick, I got 70 fps on the benchmark...    … Expand

    A rather solid shooter. A bit gray but I guess it's because of the setting and nothing can be done about it. The weapons feel very responsive. The UI is a bit of lacking and confusing. You do get used to it and it does help out with immersion - you have no idea how much health you have, the character starts coughing and chocking when needs a gas mas or to switch filter.

    Shooting people is very nice, monsters not so much but that might be just personal preference. The story is ok - not really captivating but not terrible - but fits the general atmosphere of the game and the setting. Some cut-scenes could have been avoided. The finishing sequence is also the only thing not fitting the whole setting.

    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.

Overall, Redux presents itself in a way that makes the original seem like an unpolished, early access. At first, I felt like the devs were trying to milk their customers by reselling the game with a few tweaks, but after trying out a pirated copy for an hour, I see that they deserve my money. It's a proper remaster. The original already had a great story, amazing graphics, and unique gameplay. Redux is an improvement worthy of $25, especially if you've never played the original. On the PC version you can increase the FOV via config file, while on console you can't touch it. My largest complaint about Redux is the lens flares. I'm tired of this trend where the character's eyes are treated like a camera. Afaik there isn't a way to disable them. I appreciate the beefed-up graphics, but I hate unnecessary effects, like the moon in the prologue. I've found another unnecessary change... The part where a guy on the rails was about to get hit by a cart but dodged it because someone whistled at him, then everyone laughed. Sucks that it got taken out in Redux. It confuses me why it was taken out, buuuuut okay then. The rest of the game seems promising. I'll buy it asap. Money is stupidly tight for me right now.… Expand

    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!

    Never played the original so I cannot compare, however I enjoyed this game.
    Downside: it was very short (7 hours) and there were very few enemies in total.
    Upside: The graphics were good, the story was great, I even remember the characters name after finishing the game.
    Verdict: Worth playing.

    Metro 2033 was a flawed, but good game. The Redux does a wonderful job of taking away those flaws while also updating the graphics, leaving us with a game that is great and feels modern despite its 4 1/2 year old underpinnings.. It is a shame that being a "remake" of a cult (i.e. not super popular) game it didn't get the press/critic coverage that it deserved.

    The original 2033 was already a great game but the redux version gives it a newer graphical and interface overhaul. This is the way reduxs are supposed to be made. With the additional content, veteran players should have no problems with experiencing a great game all over again. It has lots of re-playability.

    - Go into your Metro directory folder in steam and find the video folder (wherever it was downloaded, something along the lines of /SteamApps/common/Metro 2033 Redux/2033/ or /SteamApps/common/Metro Last Light Redux/)

    - Delete the file named "intro.ogv" (without the quotations)

    - Open notepad and save it as "intro.ogv" (without quotations)

    - Save the intro.ogv file you just made into those same folders the old intro.ogv files used to be in

    On PC, there is no reason to have this because we already have the full graphics the consoles didn't get, and even though it adds seamless transitions through missions and new places to go, I don't want to sacrifice the stylization of the game because of how out of place everything looks in the redux.

    I can't understand why people like this game. I prefer games that actually lets me play them. In this game you're probably going to be confused for one half of the game and not in control of your character the other half of the game. An interactive novel with a light FPS mini-game? If that's your cup of tea, go ahead. I don't enjoy it.

    The gameplay and atmosphere are top notch, but the audio side, especially the voice acting is quite underwhelming, when there are only like 5 voice actors with made-up accents voice acting every character in the game.

    The gameplay has been improved as-well. There are some tweaks to make it into a more of an action game in 2033, but this can be turned off to make it into a stealth based game in the options. The game runs a lot better on PC, too.
    The new voices are a lot worse, and the faces all look quite babyish,but as I said, the game is still amazing. Pick it up.
    This one is the better of the two, with more improvements and fixes.And the story of this one is a lot better    … Expand

    Metro 2033 Redux was a great game. I loved the atmosphere... it is a great shooter with a very good graphic. The Story is, for a shooter, good.

All these bugs where away after restart the game (Its the only game which make trouble, and much more often then 4-5 times i didn´t have to start the game.). But when it runs, it runs well.

    I played the hole game in on one weekend (sometimes little break), After 10 Hours i saw the end. A great end in a great journey.

    Try the book, it´s great too.    … Expand

    As a gamer, I really can't see a missing thing in this remake.I played the original game when it was first released.It wanted to make me play it even though it was poorly optimized and really bad in terms of stealth action.And although I played it on medium difficulty back then, the atmosphere which made me felt really alone, difficult shoot-outs , scary moments were so good.

    And now this time, 4A Games gives me the chance to play this lovely game with new textures, new lightning, totally better graphics and one of the most important things is with good FPS.Because seriously, it's really great optimized.Plus, they added new features.So this is not just a hd remake.    … Expand

    For those of you having issues installing I am very sorry. This game is kickass and beautiful. Hopefully those of you who are unable to get in have a patch coming your way soon.

Hopefully those of you who are unable to get in have a patch coming your way soon. Everything looks so much better then i could have imagined after only having seen screenshots before I bought the game. Regardless of how much brighter the underworld is then the original the Librarian sequence is and I swear to god just as scary if not scarier then the original. I have a pretty sweet asus sound card for my Sennheiser HD 598 head phones. The sounds in this game are so creepy at times that I had to take my headphones off and switch over to my speakers. This was due to i was jumping and turning around way to often like a **** The audio bump from Metro 2033 to Redux is amazing although it does take a decent open ear headset with a soundcard to truly enjoy. My daughter walking on squeaky floorboards above me was often mistaken for in game sound that's how unbelievably clear it is. Most scenes are startling however this game does throw you into a ton of run for your life moments especially in the harder difficulties on Survival mode. Survival mode really does make you think hard about your weapon setups which to me adds a whole new level of tension. Out of ammo = run and hope u can get to the next objective which happened to me frequently LOL. I will totally RLTW again with Ranger difficulty on Spartan mode. 11/10 for doing such a good job resurrecting one kick ♥♥♥ game.

    Avoid bushes in combat they are too OP. ;)

    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.
