    The game has bad animation compared with low perfomance on my PS4, so I don't understand how it can be reviewed so high by "official critics".

    It's an average to just below average game tbh. Story is dull, voice acting isn't great & audio is all over the place. It looks good in most places, but it's really nothing to be wowed about & has definitely been downgraded. It all feels so slow & boring with exception to the odd moment. I wanted to like it but it's just pretty lame next to most other to aaa games.

    First of all, I'm a big fan of Gluhovsky... Ive read most of his books, currently reading his last one called Text - i recommend it. Fan of the Metro universe since 2008. Fan of the first game, Last Light too, altho it got out of touch with the books. No problem with that tho.
    With that in mind i gotta say it with a heavy heart - Exodus is pretty, pretty frustrating to say at least... Not    First of all, I'm a big fan of Gluhovsky... Ive read most of his books, currently reading his last one called Text - i recommend it. Fan of the Metro universe since 2008. Fan of the first game, Last Light too, altho it got out of touch with the books. No problem with that tho.
    With that in mind i gotta say it with a heavy heart - Exodus is pretty, pretty frustrating to say at least... Not gonna say anything about story and such, altho it irritates me a bit that it got out of its way and its not a true Metro experience, but thats not the major problem round here..
    So lets start by saying that I like that little kind of cinematic blurr when the camera rotates, the nice and better graphics and .. thats pretty much all..
    1. Total unresponsive control pretty much all the time
    2. Ridiculous (at best) A.I. - Enemies surrendering and just staying and not responding to you passing by them and just waiting for a punch or a knife in the throat is just idiotic..
    3. Respawning enemies at places you already cleared with a lot of effort while resources are already cleared is just beyond me,
    4. Whoever made the close combat in the way it is right now - you failed miserably.. worst close combat hits probably ever. You swing like crazy while doing nothing 2/3rds of the time and finally getting killed with two hits yourself cuz obviously the ghoul is just chillin on the ground from the first hit and all other swings are drawing blood from the air. WORST close combat ever.
    4a. Gunplay and ESPECIALLY throwing knifes is just out of this world stupid.. probably the top frustrating thing in this game is to try and throw a knife on anything that moves even a bit.. if its not a person sitting in place who u can kill either way with a sneak, you will lose a hell lot of knives that just dissapear after they get thrown at something..
    5. Open world which is not exactly an open world - you are pushed to go at places on a schedule and going somewhere just to wander around is pointless cuz of course you waste all resourses and you will be there in an hour forward in progress when there is someone who wasnt there in the free roam of course.
    5a. Roaming around is absurd with the forementioned obstacles mostly because mutants are ridiculously strong and ammo consuming which leaves you pretty soon with the forementioned close combat, which means death by the second or at best third mutant that jumps u.
    I play every game on hard or at least one level of difficulty over normal and this game almost made me go on easy so that I can at least go around and see something on the far end of the map without being killed 56 times in a row!!!
    6. About dying - you will die a lot in this game and the worst thing about that is not dying per se or losing progress cuz the game saves every other minute, BUT THE FRICKIN LOADING TIME ..........
    Be killed or die by a 2m high jump - half a minute at least loading time.. and I thought AC Odyssey was whack on that part..... So last light had like 3 seconds loading time after u die but now - oh boy
    that is just crazy. Not to mention the game got u saved in the middle of some fight that is about to go down and u got no ammo cuz of course u dont - you die 3 times in a row and you already wanna turn the ps off just cuz u already lost touch with the game form all this time you are on your phone waiting for the game to load..... Crazy..
    And last BUT DEFINITELY not least - The game has so many BUGS its just sad.. I got in so many unbelievable situations its just not funny at all... people levitating, crawling thru a hole and not able to get back up just crawling outside the map for minutes, objects falling thru houses and walls, monsters teleporting and such.. They got it a week early for what? To showcase all the bugs in time?

    I leave aside the cringy dialogs, the AC Odyssey type of bad voice acting, the bad and ugly map which only purpose is to confuse u even more and it gets bananas overall.

    Reading reviews and ecpecting scores in metacritic for a long long time, i never really expected to post a review, not to say that long atleast but this game dissapointed me a lot and the fact that it feels old when it should be a blockbuster of a game is just sad.
    Sorry 4A games - you messed it up and a lot of people wont even finish it just because the game will discorage them to..    … Expand

    Вижу тут много негативных отзывов и полагаю, что это опять горящие пекари (как в ситуации с rdr2).
    Игра мне нравится. Сыграл несколько глав и жду как можно скорее Новосибирск. В игре отличный лвл-дизайн, большие карты (в которых чувствуется дух того старого доброго Сталкера), боялся, что стрельба будет отвратительной, но нет, стволы отлично чувствуются. Сюжет вроде неплох.

    Но есть у игры и минусы: 1) Самый отвратительный - как отметил не только я, когда стреляешь противнику в голову чуть выше уровня носа, то попадание не засчитывается. 4A Games поправьте хитбоксы.. это прям самое бесявое. 2) Тоже крайне бесячая вещь - аим не помагает, а больше мешает стрелять.. при чем аим как правило сразу выцеливает голову и при чем именно ту часть, где хитбокс кривой. 3) Лицевая анимация страдает. Что сильно отталкивает во время хороших диалогов. Именно из-за отвратной анимации я так и не смог осилить сюжетку CoD:WW2.. 4) Иногда крашится быстрое сохранение.. первый раз такое на Плойке встречаю.
    Приобрел издание Аврора и ситуация с постером, где Россия написано с маленькой буквы, меня крайне опечалило. В целом игрой доволен. Но как по мне, зря дату перенесли на 15 февраля. Шероховатости чувствуются крайне сильно.
    В целом игрой доволен. Далеко не идеальна, но чувствуются крепко. Не знаю как другим, а мне нравится лазить по большим картам и изучать. А тот, кто говорит, что игра никак не вознаграждает за исследование - крайне сильно брешет.    … Expand

    A real dissapointment there is no 60fps mode on pro. The push for 30fps was a horrible idea. It feels like a slideshow. 30fps in a shooter is downright unplayable.

    Metro Exodus achieves what it sets out to do. This Metro expands on its previous predecessors on every level imagined. The game world opens up to the cities and dynamic filled environments where danger lurks around every structure. If your on the fence about this game and liked the others or enjoy games like Far Cry, then I would suggest purchasing this game.

If your on the fence about this game and liked the others or enjoy games like Far Cry, then I would suggest purchasing this game. This title is packed with content that will satisfy. However, I would like to note that in it's current state with patch 1.02 the game still needs some minor work. I'm having some issues with understanding what some characters are saying due to low voice output and at times there is to much dialogue that is going on at once that it pulls me out of the scene that is unraveling. Metro exodus signs best at it's moments when you find yourself wondering around the wasteland in solitude.

    Pros:
    One of the best looking games on PS4 at the moment
    Loaded with content
    Areas are big enough to explore
    Survival post-apocalypse at it's finest
    Crafting

    Cons:
    Sound issues with voice output and effects running into each
    Few graphic glitches with character models
    Controls do feel outdated or lagging at times
    Game is either to dark or bright on current gamma settings

    Aside from my review, I notice that other reviewers are giving this game a low score because it's not posted on Steam? Really? This is a review for PS4 not PC and I don't understand how someone could rate a game based on where or how you purchase(d) the game?    … Expand

    Metro Exodus is a very average experience. It hasn't pushed into a new realm of innovation. This game feels old, mostly due to the predictable development of the story, when you think something may happen, it does every single time.

For what it offers, with its lack of innovation and poor game play, give this a big miss until its on sale foe $20.

    All in all, this game is really starting to annoy me. Being assigned a mission by my wife - who suddenly thinks she is in charge - when I have zero ammo for two guns and a third gun which will not fire at all is just plain game stopping for me. Add in the mindless, boring conversation and it is all starting to grate on me.

    Having moved the action away from the dark tunnels of Moscow's underground onto a train, going into the unknown and forced to make stops throughout the journey, Metro Exodus' authors created a memorable interactive adventure consisting of happiness from discovering love and grief from irreplacebale loss, hope of better future and despair from understanding the truth. On top of that one might call Exodus a distorting mirror that reveals the most horrible sins of mysterious Russian soul: heresy and servilism.

    Overall, Metro Exodus is an enjoyable shooter. Taking Metro out of the Metro is a good move for the series, but the game still provides plenty of claustrophobic locations for those who enjoyed the dark tunnel crawls of Metro games past. The ammunition system is still limited, but it feels better managed and more forgiving this time out, although I can still see it as being frustrating to some players. If you haven't played a Metro game before or were put off by the games in the past, give Metro Exodus a chance. You can catch this train running and enjoy the ride.
