    Это одна из первых игр моего детства. И, несмотря на возраст и недостатки, о которых я сейчас узнаю от других, она не кажется мне плохой

    Metro 2033 ist ein spannender Horror-FPS, der eine wahnsinnig dichte Atmosphäre hat. Gerade die Geräusche in den Tunnelsystemen sind hervorragend. Auch das Gunplay macht sehr viel Spaß.

Außerdem sind manche Situationen seltsam, da Artjom nicht spricht, andauernd aber Fragen an den Kopf geworfen bekommt. Alles in allem ein gelungenes Horror-Erlebnis. Expand

    love this game. I came here after playing Exodus and i honestly thought this was gonna be worse, but i was proven inccorect :). This is awesome. Finished in two or three days and i enjoyed every bit of it. I got stuck on like two missions, because i wasn't sure where to go but other than that, this was a

    The atmosphere of the subway is very well given. People trying to survive there. Various groups and wars between them. We are trying to reach our goal in this chaos. The story is not bad, it is interesting. Mysterious. Conflict dynamics are fun. Ambiance is awesome. The characters we fight shoulder to shoulder are good. A.I. we can say bad. Some enemy designs are bad (slimes). Overall a good game.

    Metro 2033. You can't hide from danger even in the subway. Amazing atmosphere and terrible black corridors are waiting for fans in this game.

    Эта игра, одна из любимых моих игр, почему? Потому-что игра очень атмосферная, на город налетели ракеты, и они взорвали половина города, потом все когда увидели ракеты, они начали бежать, и кто выжил на улице, увидели демонов, мутантов и чёрных, и они очень их напугались, чёрные нападали на людей из-за того что люди боялись и стреляли в них, а сами чёрные хотели помочь, а мутанты наоборотЭта игра, одна из любимых моих игр, почему? Потому-что игра очень атмосферная, на город налетели ракеты, и они взорвали половина города, потом все когда увидели ракеты, они начали бежать, и кто выжил на улице, увидели демонов, мутантов и чёрных, и они очень их напугались, чёрные нападали на людей из-за того что люди боялись и стреляли в них, а сами чёрные хотели помочь, а мутанты наоборот убивали, и демоны убивали, и вот люди выживают, вспоминают о прошлом, и многие ранены, они их лечат, люди продают еду, поют, разговаривают, всё так живо выглядит! В игре очень хорошая графика, разнообразный геймплей, то по скрытному убиваем бандитов, то убиваем мутантов, то убиваем бандитов шумно, то уничтожаем и помогаем нашим, и ещё в этой игре есть 2 концовки, и чтобы получить хорошую концовку, надо слушать, или давать что-то, а плохую концовку легко получить, это надо стрелять, и недослушивать, и не давать, если давать и дослушивать, то может быть плохая концовка, потому что там ещё много надо послушать, а например ты не все фразы дослушал, потому что может быть плохая концвока.
    Вывод: это первая игра 4a games, и очень хорошая, стоит ли её покупать, конечно да, но в игре нету сетевой игры, зато есть достижения в steam, игры нету на playstation 3, но есть на xbox 360, pc dvd, и в steam, где же её лучше всех брать, лучше всех брать на xbox 360, почему, потому что за достижения дают очки, но не показывает сколько ты поиграть в эту игру, как в steam, в steam показывает сколько поиграл и достижения, а на xbox очки и достижения, игра показала что русские умеют делать, игра заслужила 10 из 10!

    The plot of the game is just amazing. This game has become one of my favourites. The soundtrack of the game is just as good as the story. Feeling Artyom while listening to this soundtrack is wonderful. Graphics are more or less but it is not so important in this game.

    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. Wow what a journey that was...

    Story is really interesting. Nuclear bombs dropped on Moscow and people started to live on metro. Ambience, locations really pulls you in the game. You feel the people in metro. You feel for them, you try to understand and help them, you feel the game. That's right you don't play this, game plays you.

    You see other stations in loading screens. I really wish we could visit every single one of them. Hope they do this in next metro games.

    As for Artyom, character we play as doesn't talk during gameplay but only in cutscenes. Which is interesting choice. He is not your standard overpowered fps character. He's just a normal character who try to survive.

    Unlike other fps's this game is slow. Which makes you immersed in atmosphere. There's minimal hud which I like. I don't want my screen to be filled with icons. Stealth is good and generally works. Gunplay is great and so as sounds.

    There is this thing called moral system or something and it's really annoying. This system affect the endings you get. You knock down people instead of killing them, listen to people, explore locations and avoid combat and you get good ending. Sounds good on paper but really bad on execution. First of all you don't know how much affected your moral is. You get a sound when you do good thing but not with bad thing. With one mistake you get the bad ending. It's not implemented properly.

    But other than that I can't think of a bad thing. This game is masterpiece, one of the most atmospheric game I have ever played.

    I just played this in 2021 and loved it. The story is interesting and keeps you going along and the guns feel real and weighty. I will say however that playing on PC with a controller was hard as the secondary weapons weren't mapped to the control, a small criticism but it annoyed me to no end.
    The visuals are great, the 5.1 sound perfectly executed. I'll definitely play the sequel.

    One of the best linear shooter that I have ever played. Almost this was my favorite game in my childhood. Action mechanics are good and it is not getting boring, ambient sounds help you to feel the atmosphere of post-nuclear Moscow.

The weapon very well made from the model till the sounds of fire. The storyline is great and epic, also the final level is awesome.
    But also this game got some minuses such as bad stealth, the poor difference of monsters and you don`t feel that you can be out of ammo.
    If you have not completed this game yet - I highly recommend you to do it as fast as you can

    Metro 2033 came before its time. Fun gameplay with survival elements, complemented by immersive atmosphere and a great story. The lore is manytimes told through characters conversations.

    The theme of the Moscow Metro is revealed beautifully.
    The game is very atmospheric, diverse in gameplay, dynamic skirmishes with bandits at the stations are replaced by dark "tangled" tunnels, along the way we get acquainted with the far from sweet life of people in the post-apocalyptic world.
    I now, not even about the constant attacks of mutated monsters on human settlements, but about a simple everyday life in which people live in a room consisting of one bed and only, and the children play with all sorts of rubbish or hammers.
    Each character at the station has his own story behind his soul, his own thoughts, feelings.
    Gameplay: I liked the attitude of the developers to the details. I really feel how they emphasized realism. The weapon is interesting and original, not very much, and you can only carry 3 small arms and 2 missile weapons with you, plus a knuckle-knife. There is no automatic reloading, if the last cartridge in the clip went into the barrel, wait for the misfire. Ammo is always small. Another interesting point is the powder smoke from the shot that obscures the view, which makes it difficult to make a subsequent shot, and it's cool. All enemies wear helmets, and more than half also wear gas masks. Therefore, you can kill such with a single shot right on the neck, side or back. Well, or knocking down this helmet first. But then the enemies will sound the alarm. Sometimes they will let you shoot with an easel machine gun and a flamethrower, a pleasant trifle.
    As of 2014, I want to note the following advantages of the game: + Storey Line. Excellent, dynamic, moderately mysterious, storyline, on behalf of a person who lived his whole life underground in the subway.
    + Atmosphere. Metro and darkness. Apocalypse and hopelessness. Devastation and survival.
    + Gameplay. Skirmishes with human enemies are interesting. It is also possible to complete stealth levels. Enemies do not shine with a special variety, people, mutants. There is a certain variety in the methods of killing opponents. I really liked the use of cartridges as a currency. The presence of a limited duration of the gas mask. Powder smoke from a shot obscures the view. Dynamo machine for charging a flashlight and night vision device.
    + Artificial intelligence. Enemies are accurate, use cover, and throw Artem grenades.
    + Picture. Photographic, high-quality textures are pleasing to the eye.
    + Physics. Items in the game behave like in life. Mostly. And the overall picture is not spoiled.
    + Optimization is good. The game does not crash. But he eats resources extremely, and sags on the “qualifier”.
    Of the minuses are present:
    -The game is too short.
    -Linear. No freedom of action and side tasks. - A stupid save system based on individual save points.
    As a result, we get a pleasant, well-developed first-person shooter, with the possibility of repeated passage, to get an alternative ending and better assimilation of the plot. A game with a great atmosphere and an interesting plot.

    A highly immersive 'horror' game with tense and claustrophobic gameplay. I do not play tons of games like this, however Metro pulled me in with its atmosphere. Initally the game feels a little slow, but really builds up as it draws you in. I played the first 2 games back to back which I would highly recommend.
