    This is a solid 1st person shooter. Despite the top notch graphics, this game is let down by loading times. Come on Deep Silver you can do better! 4 minutes of loading time on my PS4. Such a wasted opportunity. Graphics 10/10, Audio 9/10, Gameplay 8/10, Loading times 0/10.

    Really wanted to like this game... I've enjoyed the previous installments so figured this would be pretty solid. The game is obtuse and the world design is just boring. Half the time you are wondering around wondering where the heck you are supposed to go and then when you do enter combat it just isn't that exciting. Wish I could sell this, but alas it's on PC.

A diferencia de los juegos anteriores a Metro exodus, este cierre de la trilogía me dejo un sabor agridulce, principalmente por el hecho de implementar un mundo "abierto" mal desarrollado, el hecho de no mantener la línea de metro 2033 y last ligth hizo que este juego de calle era bastante, sobre tofo al tratarse de su historia, la cual tienen demasiado altibajos y por más que el juego se llame "Metro la inmersión en el mismo es casi nula, ha decir verdad como cierre de la trilogía me parece que cumple en el sentido de jugabilidad, y gráficos, aunque esto se ve opacado por un mal rendimiento lo cual hace que al fin y al cabo el juego no no sea mediocre, pero no es para nada un vídeojuego de 10.

    This game is very mediocre. Story is ok, nothing groundbraking or really inspiring. Gameplay is mediocre at best. Not a great shooter and a very poor stealth game. Graphics is sometimes nice, but character animation is very poor. Generally, it’s not very bad, but there are better games to waste your time on.

    Un juego del que esperaba más sinceramente. El juego adolece de una cantidad de bugs impresionante (enemigos que se mueven después de muertos, armas que desaparecen y disparas con la mano, cámara insufrible en la furgoneta etc.) Lo más destacable del juego es su historia y sus escenarios que dan la sensación de confinamiento y la atmósfera es absorvente.

    Из плюсов - атмосфера, попытки сделать так, чтобы игрок был больше погружен в происходящее вокруг себя и вжился в роль ГГ. Диалоги, кат-сцены и пр. отлично с этим справляются, но все ломает то, что ГГ опять немой. Из минусов - это все тот же геймплей метро, состоящий из унылых перестрелок и еще более унылого стелса, тем кто играл, я думаю, не нужно объяснять как это все это выглядит.Из плюсов - атмосфера, попытки сделать так, чтобы игрок был больше погружен в происходящее вокруг себя и вжился в роль ГГ.

Попытки разбавить геймлей поездками на лодке или газели его не спасают.

    DLC:
    Два полковника лютый кал: унылая “трогательная” история про охуенное взаимопонимание этих двух хуесосов не впечатляет, геймплей это просто жопа, в начале полчаса ходишь по вонючим коридорам, поджигаешь аналог паутины и мобов, которые выскакивают на секунду, при этом охуенно дамажа, потом смотришь криво сделанные геймплейные катсцены, потом идет еще более кривой и жалко выглядящий экшн с перестрелками (сначала валит толпа, которая по тебе не стреляет, потом надо прятаться за укрытием, вставать и стрелять минуты две), в конце полчаса ходишь, постреливая мутантов и в самом конце супер убогая и кривая драка с боссом-гориллой, это просто пиздец. Короче, взяли одну из самих мерзких локаций из оригинала, и в этом была ошибка (вторая худшая локация используется во втором длц). Лучше бы сделали мясной шутер в Ямантау, в это хотя бы играть было бы фаново и интересно.Самоповторы, отсутствие фантазии, хохлы - это вся суть серии метро. Длц (а на фоне них, кстати, оригинал смотрится прямо таки шедевром) полностью убедили меня в том, что 4А самая худшая и бездарная гейм девелопмент компания в СНГ. Плюс ко всему какая-то нелепая антикоммунистическая пропаганда, прикол в том, что тамошние “коммунисты” были намного адекватнее их противников. Единственный плюс заключается в том, что ГГ перестал молчать. 0/10

    История Сэма тоже говно, правда выпустили в открытый мир и была прикольная сцена с пьянкой. Но если бы они сделали так, что они бы в итоге бухали с этим мутантом я бы поставил 10, а так только 1/10

Like how can I have missed when someone was standing still and I shot them in the head?? Melee is basically useless so if you run out of bullets just run away and find some cos melee is weak and never hits the target. You have a knife but it hits with your gun for some reason aswell? This is subjective but I wish we had actual cutscenes and your character spoke. Atleast then this game would offer with previous titles didn't. Another thing I found weird was that by default controller speaker is off in settings? Why would you not have the PlayStation features on by default? Look acceleration sucks and you can't disable it. I prefer games in a lower sensitivity but this game is low even with it turned right up. Loading screens are long even on Ps5 with SSD. Sometimes the game would be a bit buggy like getting stuck in places and stuff. It's free on PS plus premium thou so play it on there lol. Expand

    Its a good stealth game, graphically stunning. Havent played the first two. As a shooter the game is not so good, since you die with 2 bullets, its hard to stealth too since most of your weapons alert enemies. And if you see a bat mutant flying around and you decide to fight it, prepare to lose every ammo and resource you have, because these things never die.

Small bugs like not reacting to button presses. The control scheme is all over the place, & the story is bland as hell. I also cannot get the sound to balance on my soundbar, with npc's calling me on the radio while I'm under attack so I can't read the subs, & the voices are really quiet so I miss talk that may have made the story more engaging. If you turn the volume up then you're just getting blasted with the gunfire & monsters sqeeling at you. At other times the speech is fine, but even with adjustment it doesn't help. Then there's the giant sybox bug in the 3rd open area which is hilariously 4th wall breaking.

    This is my personal opinion & I'm sure there will be enjoyment for the right people, but I don't have the patience to deal with this game anymore.

    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. Metro Exodus gets a lot right, but unfortunately it gets a lot more wrong. Let's start with graphics. The graphics didn't stun me like they stunned a lot of people (I'm running on a GTX 970 on a 1080p 27" monitor while the game was on Ultra), and at times it felt pretty bland. The textures are high in quality, but the design of enemies and environments is pretty bland. I really enjoyed the atmosphere. A post-apocalyptic world with lots to see, and it was very pretty to look at. The character design wasn't the best I've seen, but certainly not the worst either. Really just average, but for a franchise that typically boasts benchmarking I just don't see it.

    The story seems very forces, particularly in the delivery of the characters and voice acting. The main character is fed up that no one else believes there's more to the world outside of Moscow and Metro. In true dreamer fashion, he can't be contained and continues to explore the world until he and his wife see a train. Bam, they aren't alone. He gets shot point blank, falls 20 feet, gets fallen on by two other corpses (who were shot and fell from the same distance), only to get back up, pop a medkit, and roll on out. The character drone on and on in no interesting fashion at all. They want you to complete side missions for them like grabbing a guitar and a doll for them. In other words, put yourself in "danger" and I'll make it worth your while with a gun upgrade or something.

    Combat is nothing innovative. If you've played most modern day fps games, you'll slide right in. That's not a negative either. I found that the combat was pretty seamless and I enjoyed the rare times I got to shoot some people up. It's really stealth that leaves me scratching my head. Typical "crouch in a shadow and the AI wont see you" deal here. You can be right next to an enemy, and if you're crouched in stealth you're as good as shadow. I'd trade the stealth mechanic for more ammo and more enemies.

    On another note, I had really thought there would be more mods for the game. Most all the mods I've seen have been reshades to make a pretty game look even prettier.

    All in all, not impressed with my 20+ hours of the game.

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

    if this is a sign of things to come in 2019, then we are going to have a very poor year of games.

    Now, in this Metro, basically nothing is Metro any more and you hang out in some kind of separate mini-open world ares, where you can 'enjoy' bad graphics, idiot enemies and the same stupid-boring collect this/that, side-story activities Ubisoft delights us more then once a year. Everything executed with an old-bulky rusted engine - meh!

    I can't see how people enjoy this - maybe it's the same way people also enjoy trash-movies or love to waste their time with hours and hours of stupid TV-Shows that never reach any point of anything...

    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. Rating 5/10 and being generous.

    Metro Exodus picks up right after the events of Metro 2033 while this furthers the story the game is lack luster at best, while we do get a very much needed QOL improvement in the back pack allowing players to change Only their equipped weapons attachments something that the community has been requesting for Years now. Thats literally it. Everything else about the game is the same from the previous two installments unless you want to count a reskinned arrow launcher over hte first two games. While Im still going to try my damnedest to enjoy this game it has some major flaws that if it wasn't for these I would be rating much higher. I am referring to unskippable cut scenes and having spent the first 20minutes of the game either in a cut scene, stuck in some dialog or stuck in a room unable to move until these NPCs quit circle jerking each other which happened multiple times in just the first 20minutes of game play of which only a minute possibly two were spent actually playing the game having gotten up to go make food, use the facilities or other wise walk away from some boring conversation filler/fluff. This includes the "Hay Artoyms back lets let everyone give a high five" like we all just got done with a big bro fest *shutters as flash backs of high school ensue* This lazy mans attempt of caricature writing seems entirely to optimistic in a world that can only be defined as apocalyptic and dystopian living off of rats and pickled eggs yet were all smiling and not grown men battle hardened crying praying for green fields blue skies a wind without the bitter cold of nuclear radiation and the bitter taste of acid rain that would melt any amount of protective outer wear. Also the beginning seems well lets call it far fetched at best and absurd at worst see the hero returning only to be interrupted by his own people as if the events in the first two games either completely didn't happened or are just being ignored as they literally open fire on Artoym the very person that saved them all.

    And while I havn't gotten to the point where I have Night Vision I can already assume that the same Night Vision Goggles affect exists in this game as it did in the previous incarnations where they all have this weird charging sound when you turn it on for god knows what reason, with the same limited visibility even in the dark having night vision that cant see past 10-15 meters in front of you is not how you do night vision all the while not showing light reflected or refracted off of surfaces like walls all you see is the source in this over overwhelmingly bright greenish white and gray hue, again im assuming that this yet another thing they havn't changed.

    Lastly of course while im nit picking everything thats wrong lets not miss the fact that the game should be called Metro 22,000 as the half life of Plutonium 239 (The main element used in nuclear weapons) has a have life of 22,000Years+- I assume that 2033 or "The Years Following" were more catchy to a focus group?

    This game received a lot of critical acclaim and came highly recommended to me, so it was with great disappointment that I trudged through the opening hours only to find the same formulaic and bland approach to open-world games that we have been seeing for well over a decade now, if not longer.

    This game received a lot of critical acclaim and came highly recommended to me, so it was with great disappointment that I trudged through the opening hours only to find the same formulaic and bland approach to open-world games that we have been seeing for well over a decade now, if not longer.

    Graphics:
    These are a mixed bag. Generally they are good, yet nothing special either. The first few hours I managed to tolerate involved grey and bland environments that I frequently got lost in due their sheer blandness.

    Gameplay:
    Again, nothing special. You point and shoot your gun, with some inconsistencies in accuracy and damage. They attempted the Resident Evil approach of having limited ammunition but forgot that RE wasn't set in an open-world, making Metro's survival approach incompatible with their open world. Furthermore, far too often I was left without a clue as where to go next. The map wasn't made obvious until several hours into the game, by which point I had already experienced exasperation. Many other games have executed the concepts in Metro more successfully.

    Story:
    Some daughter of some commander is married to you but gets kidnapped and all hell ensues. Or something. The story is a bit incoherent or non-existent at first. Can't review it holistically as I was deterred after a few hours into the game.

    Conclusion:
    It's very easy to dismiss a review such as mine through noting I haven't played the whole game, however this is exactly why it can be argued as being an average or bad game - it did little to make me want to play it further. It was cumbersome and a chore to play, which is rather counterintuitive to the premise of videogames in general. Avoid this unless you're desperate for another open-world romp, and only then at a lower price.

Graphics are on par with a PS3 game, definitely not next-gen. The voice acting reminds me of a drunk friend impersonating a Russian person and had me chuckling and shaking my head for most of the early cutscenes. This was amplified by the poor writing. The ambient sound was pretty bad too, like the superfast pitter-patter sound of your footsteps.

    Anyway, it was pretty obvious after an hour what I was in for, so deciding to remit this title back to Redbox. Really glad i didn't purchase this thing after seeing the cool trailers.

    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.

    Metro Exodus opens up a world held closed by its predecessors. This time, it's up to our well known hero Artyom to explore the unexplored regions of Mother Russia, in all of its open world glory. So sit back and enjoy the unique experience, visual wonders and darkest secrets of the beloved Metro universe.

    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.
