    Been a huge fan of the series, as well as the STALKER games in which it pays homeage to. I still have all those (and those bellow) installed in fact.

    That said, I am disappointed with this game. It could have been so much more - the chance to unleash the potential of the Metro universe, to surpass the STALKER series which was not been possible before given its constrained budget.    Been a huge fan of the series, as well as the STALKER games in which it pays homeage to. I still have all those (and those bellow) installed in fact.

    That said, I am disappointed with this game. It could have been so much more - the chance to unleash the potential of the Metro universe, to surpass the STALKER series which was not been possible before given its constrained budget. Unfortunately, it fails badly - too much focus on graphics and the push towards RTX that it misses the mark entirely. It became a 'very' average shooter in a bright gleaming package. Nothing more

    P.S. Im surprised that youtubers dont even talk about these, goes to show that they're merely reviewers, and not real players. And no, Anthem and such games do not make you an FPS fan. Lets look at these things objectively.

    I have been a gamer since, i know what the FPS renaissance looked like:

    -Far Cry 1, et al.
    -Crysis 1 and warhead (the rest are junk)
    -Doom 3, et al.
    -Stalker Shadow of Chernobyl, et al.
    -Metro, et al.
    -Fear 1 (the others were garbage)
    -Fallout 3 and 4
    -Mass Effect 1,2,3 (andromeda is garbage)
    -Unreal Engine games
    -MUCH MORE

    I know what i'm talking about.

    Pros:
    -Immerserive atmosphere brought about by its graphics.
    -Graphics. Simply the best looking FPS to date. Better than a modded Cryengine 1 which you can push via the ini file.
    -A decent crafting system.
    -Dynamic weather which was adapted from Stalker games.
    -Good intent on storytelling and voice acting, though a bit exaggerated on the english version.

    Cons: READ CAREFULLY.
    -Its a surprisingly linear and 'empty' experience despite its huge world.
    -Forcefully sluggish narrative that feels more dragging than immersive.
    -It feels more of a glorified tech demo for the RTX line, rather than a polished game.
    -A very shallow narrative, that questions logic and character choices when trying to immerse yourself in the world. Eg. Mute protagonist, dialogue choices, character choices, circumstances given your actions.
    -Confusing/Questionable morality system that FORCES you not to use your guns to get the good ending. You kill too many enemies = your companion dies, because you failed to pull the trigger at the end? Ehh? Hence, making run-and-gun feeling punishable instead of rewarding.
    -AI is dead on arrival. I mean that quite literally. Its the worst i have ever seen in this series. Enemies lining up to get shot, stand not reacting to you, not reacting to light, etc. This is what separated STALKER (its predecessor and core influence) from the rest. It was a 'real' world via A-LIfe. This game isnt, and the more you play the more it slaps youi in the face with that fact.
    -Gunplay is broken. I have enemies sniping me with a burst pistol from 2km away, and you can see their bullets trails traveling in a straight line. Wtf. I have a sniper that either drops an enemy on the floor in 1 hit, or tosses him 20m from his current position.
    -Clipping issues and glitches.
    -Enemy hit response to projectiles feels noticeable odd. Assault rifles feel weak.
    -Very limiting save mechanics.

    Metro and STALKER are great games in their own respective ways, but Metro Exodus is not. Mechanics that work inside a tunnel - will not work in an open world. It has so many titles in which it was supposed to learn from - yet it blindly trudges along waiving its shiny new paintjob.    … Expand

    - The cutscenes last way too long. At some point i was feeling like watching a movie instead of playing a fps.
    - The medkit system is **** The game doesn't give you a station to work on/craft stuff for the first missions and i found myself in a situation where i had to finish the church mission with almost 0 health because i didn't had any medkits left and i had absolutely no way to craft them . For me this is a big NO NO. I can't understand how a team of developers didn't think about this while working on the first missions of the game..
    - The dialogue is way too much and there are a lot of situations where the characters talk at the same time and you can't quite understand what they are saying. If you give me a piece of dialogue make sure i can hear it clearly..
    - The game seems poorly optmised. Although the graphics aren't that high (compared to games like AC Oddysey, Doom etc ) and although i have a decent configuration (I5 6400,GTX 960 MSI 4G,12 G Ram) the game missions took a long time to load sometimes even crashing...

    And these issues where just for the first hour of gameplay.I don't even want to think what other issues would have existed if i continued playing the game to the full end.

    The only think that makes me feel good is the fact that i pirated the game because if i had spent 60 euros on this i would have killed myself.    … Expand

    The graphics are very good but the story line is just so boring. I've played for a hour and think I'm going to refund the game. It may get better, but at this stage I don't want to risk it for the money.

    - Good graphics and immersive world
    - Linear movement
    - A lot of cut scenes and dialogue I don't give a damn about. Characters seem boring.

    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. This review applies to the Russian version of the game, but anyway. I was a big fan of original books and first two games, but did hesitate to buy a new one till 08.2019. Although game was positioned as AAA and I personally didn't experience any technical issues, i was disappointed. Such a waste of money and time. Dead and dumb dialogs. interesting story turned into set of cliches. Graphics is good as an RTX demo, but it is absolutely useless in gameplay reanimation. Through all of the game I never lost a feeling that someone tried to save money on this title. Want to drive a car? Sure, but there will be only ONE! Radio station in the train with just one song on a loop, really?… Expand

    The absolutely stunning visuals & memorable vistas don't save this game from its terrible story, awful mechanics, and downright stupid design decisions. I'm a big fan of the first two games in the series, but this entry is simply subpar on all accounts besides graphics.

I'm a big fan of the first two games in the series, but this entry is simply subpar on all accounts besides graphics.

    By far, the most glaring flaw and dumb mistake was their decision to keep Artyom a silent protagonist, when he interacts and holds direct conversations with literally dozens of people throughout the campaign. This becomes a glaring problem when they say things that warrant a direct response from him, or when they explicitly ask him something and expect a response. And yet, Artyom already voices every chapter synopses. There is so much that goes on that would have benefited from having him speak in-game, it would have lent many events much more emotional heft and necessary plausibility.

    The graphics in this game are insane, I'll admit it, though it is just about the only great thing about the game. All the settings, locales, environments, and vistas look drop-dead gorgeous 90% of the time, and I couldn't help but take countless screenshots during my playthrough. The designers deserve some serious credit for creating a world with this much graphical fidelity.

    That being said, the environments are so completely devoid of interesting things or anything interactive for that matter, that it all comes across as barely worth exploring. That drive for exploration is further curtailed by the fact that there are next to no discoverables or hidden items spread throughout these maps. I've explored practically every nook and cranny, and have barely ever received any award for doing so, let alone an actual substantial reward. This game's map comes across as the most dead, empty, bland, and un-engaging map I've ever played in since the original Red Dead Redemption.

    The game is super buggy, in everything from its cut-off or off-cue audio elements (consecutive character dialogue often completely overlaps, for example), to the wonky, unnatural, & downright terrible mechanics of the sprint ability. Enemies don't spawn or move right, characters float, bullets don't register, the camera pops up & stays that way when opening the map while in the car, and so much more. Stealth is practically impossible to fully play in. The gunplay is ok, the menu system is neat enough, the crafting mechanics are solid, and the gun customization is just thorough enough to be satisfactory yet not overwhelming. Aiming with a controller thumbstick is atrocious, no matter the sensitivty preset you use. Whoever developed these controls and thought they were ok messed up big time. It handles terribly.

    There are some great jump scares, and some solid creepy or survival horror moments, with a particularly creepy level at the very end of the game. The last level of the game is its best and was actually pretty great (and has a beautiful ending track), and probably not coincidentally is the one that sticks closest to the gameplay style & setting of the games before it. The other levels all had very promising starting segments, where the possibilities open up in beautiful ways, but then end up totally squandered with some terrible mechanics and storytelling.

    The loading times in this game are atrocious, some of the worst I've ever witnessed in a game. To start with, there is an unskippable 3-minute intro sequence until you can even load into the game each time you start it up, which is unbearable enough. But then levels take minutes to load as well!

    The story is extremely flawed, with tons of plot holes, bad writing, weak plotting, and lack of emotional impact. Some of the post-apocalyptic scenarios and plot points were ripped straight from The Walking Dead, yet handled far less meaningfully, gracefully, impactfully, or interestingly than they were there. Many of the game's scenarios are taken straight from other existing sources, including the setup of all the present factions. The characters are all unique, yet somehow remain uninteresting and unengaging. Many conversations come across as straight-up awkward or unnatural, and all character faces remain relatively expressionless at all times. The voice acting is mostly atrocious, & at its best barely acceptable. There is so much blatant exposition and excessive dialogue. Worst of all, you have to sit through many crazy deliveries of boring & uninteresting exposition - sometimes 10 minutes long each, and sometimes consecutively! This is not how to tell a story. Furthermore, some of the story threads lead nowhere, don't get addressed or were for naught, and the morality system is badly implemented & utilized.

    In summary, this is an awful game but an incredible walking simulator. I suggest either just watching a cutscene compilation on YouTube, or playing through the game on easy without bothering with exploration or crafting. With some competent storywriters, scripting, and voice acting, it might have even been decent.    … Expand

    - Horrible sound/npc design. I was hoping that my companions would shoot themselves in the mouth so they could finally shut up talking. and in overall, the game sounds like a convuluted mess.

    - Irritating cutscenes, especially in the beginning of the game, completely put my mind out of the game because you're not in control for half of the time.

    - Wrong sense of helplessness, i had no idea what i should do, or where i should go to, especially early in the game, and had to reload a lot of times after getting shot to hell (and the ludicrous one-slot save system doesn't help)

    - After i melee-attacked a humanimal it went down and it got back up, i melee-attacked it again, and it got back up. repeated that FOR 80 TIMES until i gave up and i was killed by it. I just couldn't help myself from bursting out in laughter and disbelief and almost destroying my keyboard by smashing ALT+F4

    This game is VERY poorly optimized for PC as well. Low frame rates even with a GTX 1080 Ti a 8th gen i7 and 32 GB of ram. Many bugs seem to be in the game graphically as well.

    They took out what made the previous games interesting - the claustrophobic metro tunnels - and replaced them with a generic semi-open world (because even 4A needs to follow trends now, apparently).

The open-world elements serve no purpose, there's essentially nothing to do or explore...so why have a semi open-world in the first place? Also, the game is buggy as hell and very prone to crashing. I've lost count of how often I had to restart the game because it randomly froze or crashed to desktop.
    Plus, the story was weak, too. Predictable and unnecessarily contrived. Not on par with the previous games.

    The game is super pretty, though... but that can't save this mess of a game. A waste of time and money, unfortunately.

    4A needs to go back to the drawing board and should re-evaluate what made the first two Metro games so good. They made good games before and I'm sure that they can do it again.    … Expand

    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. Ставлю 3 бала только за красиво плескающуюся воду в стакане (Шикарная физика жидкости внутри емкости.), и за саундтрек. Композитор единственный кто старался при работе над игрой. Так это убогий однообразный шутер (И ни разу не шедевр.), с никакущей стрельбой (Ощущение от оружия, и система отображения повреждений дно.). Кучей гринда на более менее крупных (Примерно как в первом Crysis-Far Cry, хотя местные зоны чуть меньше.), но довольно пустынных локациях, практически полностью лишенных интересных мест. Из игры убрали систему торговли, исчезло ощущения опасности которое было при вылазках на поверхность (Оно достигалось, постоянной нехваткой воздуха, кучей тварей и прочих опасностей, которые приходилось преодолевать игроку. Тут же, можно тупо почти от всего убежать.), атмосфера с которой и так было туго ещё в предыдущей части, практически сошла на нет. Сюжетные миссии не блещут проработкой и оригинальностью, уровни с заброшенной станцией, библиотекой, первой вылазкой на поверхность, и останкино, в разы лучше всех миссий Exodus. Сюжет к слову, представляет из себя набор шизофренического, и жутко нелогичного русофобного бреда (Увы из за ограниченного объема рецензии, я не могу его описать.), с посредственными диалогами и персонажами, хотя погибшего Мельника (Несмотря на то что он старый маразматик.), всё же жаль, больше чем того же главного героя. Который опять молчит в процессе миссий, но при этом вовсю болтает на экранах загрузки, "гениально"! Графика тоже не блещет, текстуры немногим лучше чем в предыдущей части, а детализация уровней оставляет желать лучшего. Ах да, обещанный Rtx глючное дерьмо, которое просто затемняет картинку. Однако малолетние, умственно отсталые русофобные фанатики Глуховского, всё равно будут доказывать что Metro Exodus это шедевр (Который они в силу "большого ума", уже ставят выше Stalker 2, который не представлен даже в виде скриншотов.), ни разу не русофобия, и вообще лучшая игра 2019 года. Здесь я привел лишь малую часть минусов Exodus, даже основные не влезут. До смешного, разработчики наивно полагают, что стражи сражающиеся с кикиморами, (Про Skyrim мир которого в 15 раз больше Exodus, где хищники охотились на травоядных, мы не слышали.), или лагеря бандитов с крафтом, действительно смогут кого то удивить. Ну ну. Лучше бы сюжет нормальный написали, да над миссиями поработали. P.s Те кто ставят 0 балов, только из за EpicStore, полные идиоты, торговая площадка никак не связана с реальными минусами игры, будь она хорошей, её можно было купить даже в Uplay. P.s.s Иронично что люди восторгающиеся такими проектами, возмущаются миссией в аэропорту из Mw 2, и сюжетной компанией Coh 2, данные игры хотя бы не создавались людьми из Снг, и в них не было такого градуса русофобии как здесь.

    I use 2 screens and watch something in the background as MANY do but this game doesn't offer windowed mode or like to be alt tabbed (computer has a 1080, i7 8000 something along those line and 32gb ram INB4 a update your rig comment) and decides to crash completely upon doing so.

    the game runs like a dog but looks great when running, i deeply regret buying the game at launch as it's a mess, i really really love the series and look forward to playing it when it works if it ever does i'll change my review but the game itself for me is too buggy to buy into i hope you read this and make the decision for yourself!

    Metro Exodus is not a lot of fun. I'm glad it was so cheap during the recent sale.

    It's one of those "hard" shooters where you die in a couple shots, which would be more fun if this didn't mean the correct choice was always remaining in stealth.

    It's one of those "hard" shooters where you die in a couple shots, which would be more fun if this didn't mean the correct choice was always remaining in stealth. Once an enemy camp is alerted of your presence, they instantly all immediately know exactly where you are, even in pitch blackness when you can't even see them in return. Enemies could be having a loud party and you make one tiny bunny hop outside behind a brick wall and WOOP WOOP the alarm bells start ringing and the entire world opens fire on your exact location. It's stupid. This is 2019, and I think we expect a bit better.

    It was tolerable in the other two because they had a great atmosphere, and a great story, and even if the combat was still just as asymmetrical and broken-stealth heavy, at least you being in a subway tunnel meant you had a general idea of which direction to return fire. I even completed them on ranger difficulty because I enjoyed the games so much. But this METRO is much more open world, with tall buildings and wreckage and multiple flanking positions and packs after packs of roaming monsters that are just there to eat up your ammo and make traversing to your next objective take longer.

    It wasn't fun in STALKER in 2007 and it still isn't fun today.

    The trope of the "silent protagonist" has always seemed questionable to me, yeah I get that Valve does that a lot, but you really need to have interesting supporting characters to pull that off. In a *dialog heavy* game where other boring characters are repeatedly brainstorming ideas and *looking for your input* by asking direct questions, it becomes totally ridiculous. "Atryom, go back to base and tell my dad..." "Artyom, what do you think our next move should be". Over and over and over and over. Dull dialog that goes on forever but never says anything much.

    A more patient person, or someone new to shooters might have fun if you turn the difficulty down to 0 and just play it as a run and gun and skip all the dull story. I have better things to do with my time.

I am a big fan of the previous titles as well as the first book (the second one sucked as the cash cow it was).

    I have not finished the thing yet, but I consider this as a heads up to everybody who was as hyped as I was.

    Let's start with the good:
    1. The story is sort of intriguing. It's not genius, but I suppose it is the only thing keeping me going at the moment, as I've have not played/read a good post-apocalyptic (let alone Russian) sci-fi in a while.

    2. I somewhat like the old-style quest tracking, where the game does not really hold your hand (for the most part) as what you are supposed to do and how. Although tracking side-quests in your diary would help.

    3. the weapon system is pretty neat. You can customise weapons however you like (and on the go) and need to keep them clean in order to work properly. Weapons, in general, are fun to shoot. Handling and sound look immersive and realistic.

    Then comes the rest.
    1. First off the optimisation is terrible with framerates fluctuating between 30-100 fps on a fairly beefed up PC.

    2. Main characters are so f/ing annoying! Dialogues are so poorly written and the (over-)acting is laughable at best. Moreover, all the NPCs are cheering for you or hugging you all the time - don't know what kind of fantasy is being fulfilled there.

    3. The atmosphere of Metro is mostly gone. The environment is empty and dull and looks like an offspring of Stalker but not in a good way. I have not felt any kind of suspense during my 6 hours of the playthrough.

    4. Movement is so goddamn clunky and never works properly (being stuck on the geometry all the time, falling from ledges, climbing animation looks like from the 90s etc)

    5. Fighting - apart from the weapon mechanics as described above- is just horrible. AI is plain stupid and cheats at the same time, which further contributes to the completely broken stealth system. On hardcore difficulty, the game is way too hard to be enjoyable (also thanks to the scarcity of ammo), while being too easy on normal.

    6. Graphics look like 7 years ago.

    My recommendation is to wait for a sale. Maybe they will polish this into something playable by then.    … Expand

Все технические баги можно будет еще подтянуть патчами. Но жадность издателя не изменить. Габен хоть и жиреет с своих 30% - это факт. Но убирать игру из продажи за 2 недели - неуважение к фанатам. Я думаю, что в полной мере могу считать себя фанатом серии, тк прошел каждую часть по 5-6 раз и прочел всю трилогию от корки до корки. А в момент анонса - искренне радовался.

    - Очень часто не срабатывающие скрипты, как следствие прохождение заново. ( и не дай бог если чекпоинт сработал после того как накрылся скрипт )
    - Просто ужасная орфография в субтитрах и записках (ошибка на ошибке), и это игра ААА?
    - Текстурные баги и баги AI, вылеты, зависания.
    - Стрельба и поведение оружия на уровне первых игр серии( и где тут прорыв как многие пишут не понятно)
    - Не говорящий Артем из GTA3 и HalfLife, для игры 2019 года это выглядит как то странно.
    - Зачем столько модификаций оружия если стрелять приходится пару раз за всю игру, и то толко там где дают пострелять. А в остальное время стелс стелс стелс...(и да!!! стелс перенесен из предыдущих частей и просто не работает на текущей концепции), не ну вы конечно может открыть огонь но это закончится загрузкой чекпоинта (если говорить про максимальный режим сложности).
    - Завышенные системные требования (мало что поменялось с предыдущих частей в графике, и да у меня GTX 1080)
    - От METRO осталось только название и первые 20 мин игры во вступление.
    - Про Steam... лично мое мнение - ее специально от туда выпилили что бы не схватить "хейта" от ужасного исполнения релизной части игры, т.к. все похоже на то что разработчик просто не успел доделать релиз и выпустил его сырым.    … Expand

    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. Where to begin... Graphics. Altho this game's graphics have been inflated by "reviewers" all over the net, because of its RTX feature, I find graphics to be not easy on the eye, to feel outdated. I do not own an RTX graphics card, but at 1440p ultra, this game outta be more realistic. Animation is poor, there were many outright bugs with terrain, some really blurry textures in open world as well as inside buildings, notably walls, bricks, stones etc. I cant figure how digital foundry and few others reviews about graphics could possibly be so damn encouraging.

    Plot... The games story feels like some 3rd grade writer idea of a good story. If the writer had put more work onto it, it coulda feel good. Story and the characters that feel it are so plastic, so uninteresting, that it makes me sick to my stomach. Not once throughout the play did I have a feeling for any of the chars, fear for their safety or emotion for them possibly getting killed was lacking. This is ofc because you cant relate to characters that has no character at all. Even the main ones, most important to the story, they all feel like dolls, with a tape recorder inside their body, that has bad script playing. And the fact that the main character hasnt said a word throughout the gameplay part of the experience is telling. It just feels so wrong. Many times Artyom was asked of opinion, or just player would feel like there is something he should say, but he is totally silent. Retarded decision by devs if you ask me.

    The sound in game isnt anything special. Gunshots hurts my ears. The voice of characters telling uninteresting stories, the bad acting of bad russian accent its all... so... disappointing.

    Worst part, for me, was the gameplay. AI is so screwed. Its 2019. And yet, you go on a silent killing spree, you can run to your target, it wont hear you. You can "silent" kill a target that speaks to another NPC in the middle of conversation, while they sit few meters from each other, under a light, and while doing so you will hear the noise from hand killing the NPC, the NPC's last breaths, but the companion NPC will not give a **** AI of zombies and mutants is story of its own. The rocktrowing NPC... Someone mind explaining why would he trow a rock, or a brick, at certain distance, forever??? And it gets worse... He will do so in a manner that you can avoid each and every trow. When they are on a path, you can walk behind them, get so close, shoot around them, and they will not stop to wonder: "hey, what is this **** im gonna turn around and eat it!". Its one of worst "tripple A" game AI's ive seen in my life.

    Not to make a novel out of this... I give this game a 3/10. Those 3 points goes to the franchise, I used to love, so for respect for former work I can give 3. But if this was brand new game, without RTX support, I can guarantee you it would get the same score from all major reviewers. Well, im off to bed, hope I wont dream the scarily stupid AI from the game.    … Expand

    Bad character design, sometimes it feels like you are playing some kind of Saints Row 4 or Borderlands and not a serious Post-apocalyptic game.
    Sounds are bad, game can't properly work with sound directions, also do not properly support anything above Stereo...

    Guess a WORLDWIDE NUCLEAR WAR isn't really that bad, people took one lifetime or two in shelters and now everything is okay, mutants aren't barely as present, radiation doesn't kill anymore, the air seems a lot better because you see a lot of people without masks, this game opens with it just squatting and taking a huge dump on the ENTIRE plot and universe.

    So, how's the game itself? Just barely fun, it's short, the guns are pretty much recycled, the enemies too, the same core gameplay, same engine (IT'S ALMOST A DECADE OLD NOW), pretty handholdy and most of all, the game completely lacks tension, in the first minutes you get attacked, bit, bludgeoned, shot, left without a mask but nah don't worry, you're pretty much superman now.
    Artyom used to be the underdog hero and Metro used to be gritty, now it's pretty much russian Harry Potter.

    Gamers this day and age are completely braindead, this game's ratings shows, it just shat on the entire lore and world it took so much time to build, people see cool graphics and effects, pretty guns that make nice sounds and say "yeah definitively a 7", this game is **** it does not belong in the metro series and if you are willing to give this positive ratings and encourage lazy crap like this, congratulations, you're the one to blame for the state of gaming right now so shut the **** up when companies release crap games, you encouraged it.    … Expand

    Well, i've tried this game a couple of hours, and after absolutely falling in LOVE with Metro Last Light, i have to say that i'm deeply dissapointed.

    They stripped the game from what it made the series, dark, narrow spaces. Precisely what was boring in Last Light were the open spaces. Now is just another FPS with an semi-open world, with no sense of mission or direction. But hey!!!

The gameplay is not very different, but it made me revise my score down significantly. The reason: this games punishes you severely for playing it ANY OTHER WAY than SJW developers intended, by killing off your NPC teammates and ultimately you, the protagonist. Enough said, this garbage is now uninstalled and I doubt very much that I will buy another game from this studio.

    I am kinda glad that this game released on epic crap store first. Bought it on steam for $30 and even that is too much for this one, I think the fair value would be about $15.
    But anyway. Lets talk about the good first.
    Visuals: the game looks great and runs well. I don't have an RTX card, just an old 1080TI at 1440p resolution and everything looked drop dead gorgeous, with exception of desert map where it started to chug quite a bit. Weapons looked great and so did characters. Some of character animations were a bit dicey though.
    Setting: I really liked the idea of a train as a moving, upgradeable home base. That was pretty dope, really hoping someone will take that idea to the next level, with a better game.
    The second half of the very last map, Novosibirsk, was just damn awesome. Gave me massive Stalker flashbacks and I loved it.

    Now on to the parts that were bleh.
    Sound: nothing special, really. Solid middle.
    Map design: uninspiring at best. There were some really pretty parts but the gameplay was kinda tepid. Like previous Metro games, the maps are extremely linear, even the more open ones.
    Enemy and friendly AI: absolutely rudimentary and generally a detriment to the game.
    Crafting and inventory management: I was not put off by it but didn't enjoy it all that much either.

    Now the parts that sucked some really smelly Ukrainian ass:
    Plot/story: I thought this was just the worst. There are no redeeming qualities here, it's just garbage throughout - especially because so much potential (the "Great Train Adventure" premise) had been squandered by a nonsensical plot. You can't built anything decent on a rotten foundation, so all the good elements of this title fall flat because of the extra-stupid story.
    Voiceover: easily the worst part of the game. With VERY FEW exceptions, voice acting was beyond bad, this is just high-school theater level of bad. And there's A LOT of talking in this title.

    Conclusion: worth picking up for $15-20, but don't expect the level of quality of previous Metro games. All good things eventually come to end, and this is the end of of Metro franchise; I am extremely skeptical that it can be salvaged after this uninspired turd.
    The anti-consumer decision to release exclusively on Epic also affected my rating.    … Expand

    This has been a massive disappointment and frustration. There are numerous bugs and graphical glitches that plague this game. It is not ready to be released.

    The first bug is game breaking; after entering the first 'open' level, the game no longer recognises commands to fire weapons. This is inexplicable as the ability to shoot guns has worked for the first 3 hours of game play. Not    This has been a massive disappointment and frustration.

    The first bug is game breaking; after entering the first 'open' level, the game no longer recognises commands to fire weapons. This is inexplicable as the ability to shoot guns has worked for the first 3 hours of game play. Not being able to shoot weapons in a fist person shooter is ridiculous.

    Second; quick save is temperamental. Often upon launching the game, there is often no option to continue or load a previous save. This requires a restart of the PC for the game to recognise the save files.

    Third; the built in Photo Mode is broken and does not have a function to take screenshots Integration with NVIDIA Ansel is broken; you cannot take photos with Ansel in Metro Exodus Photo Mode. It works fine in Shadow of the Tomb Raider. Appalling and absurd oversight and implementation.

    I am running this on an RTX2080; the graphics are some of the best I have ever seen but often the lighting on static objects like trees is utterly bizarre and flashes in and out, especially on the Train Hub levels. Characters have an aura around them that obscure Ray Traced reflections in water. Issues such as these immediately break the immersion that RTX and DLSS is supposed to enhance.

    The character writing and interactions are disinteresting, poorly voiced and too lengthy. The motivations of certain major characters are sometimes utterly unbelievable.

    The decision to make the game available on Epic Games has had the following specific drawbacks;
    - No ability to pre-install the almost 60 GB game file. Game was not available to download even at 1 am on 15 Feb 2019. Unacceptable!
    - No user forums to discuss and find solutions for common issues - having to resort to Steam General Discussion Forums.
    - No achievements, no cloud save, poor launcher support
    The decision of Deep Silver and 4A games to make their game exclusive to Epic Games must be criticised, as it has introduced these above consumer experience issues for this title. I will likely not be buying another title from Epic Games Store until these issues are resolved.

    I have spent most of the day wrestling and trying to find solutions for this 'game'. Games are supposed to be fun to play. My experience today has been an utterly frustrating chore. It should not acceptable to launch any product in any market with such deficient functionality. Poor.    … Expand

The UI is garbage as is with most ports or games released on both consoles and PC, that is a given anymore. The graphics are 2 years behind along with the terrible animations and sound. The game rivals any Bethesda fallout game in terms of bugs. This feels like it needed a few more months to bake and come together.

    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. - AI is pathetic. I have gone from being half a metre away from a turkey and not detecting myself or from being far away and super hidden and being detected by all the enemies in the area. The most pathetic thing is surrender. I've gone from killing 3 men, staying 4 alive and having me surrounded and surrendering all 4 at once. Then, in addition, to go out to another zone and see 2 enemies more arms in high

    - Artyom's movement is slow, clumsy and feels of the past generation. I don't think it's normal that in a 2019 game you get caught in a pixel that protrudes from a branch of a tree, or that you get close to a fence or wall, you jump and in the middle of the jump you put the animation of a step off. Or worse, don't hook the movement to the first one and you have to jump 2 or 3 times to be caught by the climb. In that sense it is very outdated. I'd also like to know which genius came up with the same button to duck as to collect ammunition from weapons. It's great to be covered, want to take bullets from a corpse next to you, don't catch the action and stand up, making A-dies if you're in a B-fire- you get caught.

    - The story doesn't hold up, nor does it have a head or a foot, especially because of the way certain situations are presented to you. It is not normal that in the part of the sect, you enter the church as if it were a cinema with everyone watching and 30 seconds later you are hostile to everyone for no apparent reason, when you have been shot 3 seconds before helpless from a boat. Miller doesn't make sense, it goes from wanting you to die to helping you 3 times in each encounter with him. The inhibitors are ridiculous.

    - The behavior of the allies is so cutrísimo, again belongs to the last generation. Those infinite conversations are a pain in the ass, you walk away from one who is giving you the badge and you look from afar and keep talking to you. Also, as I say the conversations are a pain in the ass and very chaotic, there can be 2 or 3 conversations at the same time, making you not know anything.

    - The sound is MALISIMO. The weapons that sound like toys are joined by a 3D sound, no matter how much atmosphere I say it has, non-existent. The audio mix is painful, and the sound controller can't fix it. It can't be that being next to an npc, you don't hear him just because the ambient sound is heard more. It's been years since I had to put the subtitles to find out something.

    - Of graphics I don't see it SO pointer. I play it on an Xbox One X with a NU8005 55", calibrated meniculously and the game looks BAD. The HDR is implemented like the ass. The gamma slider is rotary. The textures are some really good and some really bad. The facial modeling is very bad, the faces are not bad, but they are very inexpressive and in the secondary characters the faces are very bad. Also the lighting on the faces is very dull, and in a game where there are so many cinematic characters in the foreground is lost a lot of quality. I won't compare it to RDR2, the faces of Crysis 3 or Mass Effect 3 are much better. The rest, which is the lighting, particles, polygonal charge, etc because the same thing, there are very good moments and other very bad ones.

    - It has TOO many cinematic scenes, and the worst thing is that they are almost all scenes without any interest and quite badly performed and repetitive. Situations that you're controlling your game and suddenly something happens and you stay as "but let me control the **** everything to end up with Artyom being saved to the limit by an npc that grabs his arm, either underwater, when hitting a jump or fall somewhere.

    - I don't think the atmosphere is half as good as 2033 and Last Light.

    In short, a game very outdated in the playable that has been given an injection of graphics and a fist of open world and crafting and track. I hope it gets better but I think it's the first big disappointment of the year.    … Expand

    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. Игра после прохождения оставила весьма негативные эмоции, если честно то я ожидал большего. Metro Exodus это совсем не то метро к которому мы привыкли.
    Плюсы:
    Транспорт. Было интересно плавать на лодке и гонять по пустыне на буханке.
    Псевдо открытый мир. Дает возможность побродить и отвлечься от сюжетной линии.
    Модификация оружия интересней прошлых частей.
    Атмосферность
    Несколько локаций с меняющейся климатом и атмосферой в целом.
    На этом к сожалению все.А теперь к минусам
    Минусы:
    Немой Артем и длинные монологи. Порой скучно ждать пока пройдет весь монолог. Ты стоишь и тупо слушаешь тонну текста в котором ты не принимаешь участвия от слова совсем.
    Крайне тупой и заскриптованный AI. Проходил игру дважды и встречал врагов в одних и тех же местах. Конечно с расположением бандитов все понятно, но вот монстры могли бы и перемещаться. Тем более в игре есть режим сложности хардкор рейнджер который подразумевает под собой повторное прохождение,чего уж там прямым текстом написано.
    Графика. Выкрутил графон на максимум, а получил все те же мыльные текстурки и просадки ФПСа. Я не дрочер ФПСа, но не меняющаяся визуальная часть не должна жрать столько ресурсов. Из этого пункта вытекает следующий.
    Оптимизация, стационарник за 3к $ имеет просадки фпс и загружен по самое не балуй хотя графика года эдак 2014.
    Пустой псевдо открытый мир. Мир мы открыли, а вот контентом не наполнили.
    Постоянное надрачивание стелса при прохождении, стелси это стелси то иначе получешь плохую концовку.
    Фактически обязательно лазать по локации и собирать мини квесты которые влияют на концовку, если в прошлых частях ты линейно проходил уровень и мог выполнить по пути мини квест который влияет на концовку то тут ты его уже можешь пропустить.
    Стелс, стелс и еще раз стелс, как же у меня горело от него на хардкоре при повторном прохождении. Бандиты которые берут в рабство людей, но их убивать нельзя потому что стелс. Фанатики которые тебя готовы пришить за фонарик в руках, их тоже нельзя убивать они не виноваты... Ну хоть на Ямантау можно было убивать людоедов хотя странно по логике разработчиков они тоже хорошие просто жизнь заставила.
    В некоторых монологах ловишь фейспалмы, а во время диалога Мельника с Ямантау так я вообще проломил себе лицо от фейспалмом.

    Exodus' story was horrible and I was not invested in any of the characters at any time. The gameplay felt clunky. The AI was absolutely horrible (think 2003 AI). There was never a satisfying moment of gameplay. This game felt more like a chore than a pleasurable gaming experience.

I didnt even know that this was a limitation of the epic game launcher, It means that I cant play the game on my gaming laptop when in the RV, I travel a lot with my family and we dont always have WIFI constantly. So I cant even play a single player game I payed $60 for without internet, what an absolute joke.

    I am a long time fan of the previous 2 games. had an absolute blast with last light as its considered one of my most favorite games ever. But in Exodus It just doesnt have that same feel like the previous 2 games. First of all the FOV is really low and there is NO FOV SLIDER!. Yep you read that right, its 2019 and a FPS game on PC without an FOV slider. The default FOV is 60 and you will get horrible motion sickness from playing on your monitor, The game seems to be a straight up port from consoles, they didnt even put any work into the PC version. the movement feels super sluggish and heavy, mouse sensitivity can be maxed out and yet it still feels like you have 20 pounds of rocks holding your mouse down. And the open world feels so boring, half the time you run around looking for something to shoot or do, there just isnt anything going on to interest me while going from area to area. There is barely any underground sections like the older games, which was a staple in the Metro series and is in the freakin title of the game.

    Overall I cant recommend this, as pretty looking as it is, the game feels baron and the PC version is a lazy port from consoles.    … Expand

    There's no metro in Metro Exodus, so it's basically just Exodus.

    The game is slow, clunky, boring, not scary at all and has silly additions that were needed.
    not to mention it's on stupid Epic Store which I hate using because I don't play Battle Royal games nor need another app on my computer.

    Third: The gameplay is boring. Even at hardcore its more an walk-through than a challenge.
    Fourthly: Endlessly loot picking is boring. press E for two bullets, press E for two bullets, press E for two bullets. Booooooring!

    Conclusion: Is miss everything I loved on Metro and LL. I cant feel anything from the hype on Metro Exodus. I am very disappointed at the moment.

    One point for the nice but not mindblowing gfx.

    edit: I finished that palgue and I am happy that I shot one good to much so that Artjom died, R.I.P. my old friend.

    My rating now for the chapters (from 1 worst to 10 best):

    prologue: 2, lacks of logic, but so what, it's an prologue.
    volga: 5,semi open world muddy terrain environment, Ithought it was boring while playing but after finishing that game its maybe the best part.
    yamatau: 5, ok, that part is funny here and there but to short to give the game an other spin. But at least a lot of shooting here.
    caspian desert: 2, semi openworld monotone desert environment, not challenging anyway, but not to much Anna and boring dialogs, so it gets 3 points minus one for the absolutely annoying sandstorms.
    the valley: 4, simple linear level, no open world parts, easy to solve without the senseless bear "boss" fight ( I still doesnt know wy i "won" after a dozen of similar fights, most annoying scene of the game. Detailed but oldfashioned graphics, pitiable.
    dead city: 1, desperately helpless attempt to create a stalker like environment. strictly linear design , boring as hell, wtf are they thinking? Uninspired winter environment.

    beside this: poor PC port, poor game mechanics. Sometimes "bandits" were beamed to other places in the map or disappear like ghosts while you sneak behind them just to respan a littler further. Ah, and, ehm, Artjom is'nt mute, he can "aaaargh" and "oouch" but is unable to say a word unless how much the rest of the gang or Anna persuade on him.

    After all and as I said before this game miss everything that makes metro great. A good story, unexpected changes, open questions. What happened to the dark one's for example? Furthermore it looks like the parts are developed by different teams.

    I've played both metro and LL three times at last and will hold them high forever (as I do with stalker) but I am happy after deleting this piece of garbage from my disc.

The story itself is fairly average: your companion Anna lends a 'helping hand' in combat situations, all other NPCs are forgettable in the long run. The pseudo open-world is beautiful, but unappealing - I personally preferred the underground tunnels in both previous Metro games.

    It's almost like the developers knew the game wasn't going to be that well-received and decided to mindlessly accept the Epic Store 'exclusive listing' proposal to cash in a certain amount of money. Thank God I chose the option to have a taste of this game without paying. Harr!    … Expand

    Metro has always been a very niche game series with poor storytelling, broken stealth and unsatisfying shooting mechanics, which are offset by original setting. The same is true for Exodus, although it also adds "pointless open world" to the pile. [Issue#236, p.28]
