    Не могу найти ни одного довода в пользу того, чтобы играть в такое в 2019-м. Наверное, если бы мне нравился Глуховский или, по крайней мере, я его читал, то относился бы к M:E как-то иначе.

    Меня хватило часа на три, до середины Волги. Идти по сюжету не интересно. Эксплорить особо нечего. Развлечь себя «вживанием в мир» не получается. Эстетику абандона и постапокалипсиса — самое
    Не могу найти ни одного довода в пользу того, чтобы играть в такое в 2019-м. Наверное, если бы мне нравился Глуховский или, по крайней мере, я его читал, то относился бы к M:E как-то иначе.

    Меня хватило часа на три, до середины Волги. Идти по сюжету не интересно. Эксплорить особо нечего. Развлечь себя «вживанием в мир» не получается.

    Эстетику абандона и постапокалипсиса — самое важное для меня в такого рода сеттинге — портит тупо все. NPC, похоже, озвучены стоковыми телевизионными дикторами. Причем интонации не сильно соотносятся с происходящим на экране: ощущение декламирования с табуретки.

    Дизайн окружающей среды и быта близок и узнаваем, но в деталях не достоверен (хуже того — зачастую не логичен).

    Повествование — что и какими словами говорят NPC, дневник и пр. — косноязычная печаль.

    Анимация NPC — удивительно видеть такое в ДВЕ ТЫСЯЧИ ДЕВЯТНАДЦАТОМ году.

    Вообще не понятно, чем люди руководствуются, какие у них эстетические критерии и игровой опыт, когда положительно отзываются об игре. В таких рецензиях восхищают волевые качества их авторов: смогли же пройти!

    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. Their is a massive lack of imagination with the crafting of the core game play, the way in which you interact with objects feels 15-20 years old. One ofMetro Exodus is a very average experience.

Their is a massive lack of imagination with the crafting of the core game play, the way in which you interact with objects feels 15-20 years old. One of the big issues, is the mediocre A.I. This would be close to the worst A.I I have experienced in an FPS style game in 20 years. The previous two games, are a far better experience than this. 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.

    So I have never played the previous games or read the books. I thought the opening sequence set the tone and I was happy what with what I was getting into. I watched the E3 demo and was blown away and couldn’t wait.
    Release day... the controls are bad. The game handles like a bus with only one square wheel. I had to turn up the sensitivity to max because the game handles that badly. I even changed out my controller...just in case. Sadly the game was the problem.
    I love the concept behind this game but it is littered with inexcusable voice acting, the plot point is hard to follow mostly because I sit there cringing at the terrible Russian accents, my cat could do a better job, and all the npcs talk over each other.
    I don’t understand the gameplay. It’s like playing rainbow 6 siege on a dail up connection as you sprey your targets with limited ammo and they kill you with one shot or claw.
    I don’t mind the open linear approach to any game but this feels like a lie. It encourages you to play safe. If you go up against more than one enemy you are going to die. The game then rewards you further by taking an age to reload.
    I really wanted this to be an amazing game, but for me it’s not. I think I’ll be doing an early trade in and going for far cry new dawn instead.

    The metro essence goes to the next level. The free mode is a positive addition, as it does not lose what made it special to previous Metros

    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..

    I love metro 2033 and i love Last Light... Totally finished on pc and ps4...
    Now Metro Exodus... ok... let's see...
    1. Animation: I think developers didn't use mocap and write everything through code. Cause animation worth then in games back in 2000s
    2. NPC: DEAD npc, DEAF npc...
    3. Shooting: i can't shoot in this game i'm getting seasick
    4. FOV: it's a joke really a joke...

Недовольны по большей части пользователи Steam, но при чем тут Steam, если это версия для PS4? Команды с гораздо большим бюджетом делают бездушные клоны каждый год и люди это покупают. А Метро...Метро наше все. Неповторимая атмосфера в душе навсегда.Сталкер моей мечты. Ожидания оправданы и даже более того. Это похоже на сон, но это реальность и это новое Метро!

    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. Так долго ждал эту игру, сделал предзаказ на издание "Аврора", дождался релиза, прихожу домой и просто офигел. Привет из 2008-2009 годов!
    1) Графика вообще не поменялась, по сравнению с прошлыми частями.
    2) Анимация персонажей тоже неизменна
    3) Упоротые тайминги в диалогах персонажей
    4) Озвучка персонажей сделана словно ПТУшниками (Да, знаю, что не ПТУ, а колледж).
    5) В диалогах часто присутствуют лишние символы и "очепятки". Очень неприятно читать, когда в диалоге присутствуют знаки ">", словно диалог скопировали из текстового редактора и вставили игру, даже не проверяя за собой работу.
    6) Управление очень рваное и дерганое, никакие настройки не помогают.
    7) Просто достал баг с нерабочим фонариком (он просто не горит, а зарядка динамомашиной не происходит). Нет, рядом нет радиации, нет запретной зоны! Разработчики просто спешили быстро-быстро сдать проект и забить на него
    8) Очень часто в темных помещениях при резком повороте возникают фиолетово-синие артифакты ( Миссия, где спасаем Анну из бункера ).
    9) Последний гвоздь в крышку гроба вогнали баги с НПС, застревающими в текстурах. Катя застряла у входа в "Аврору" и не давала зайти. Из-за автосохранения перед этим моментом пришлось загружать сохранение в самом начале уровня.
    10) Про притормаживания и жуткие проседания в фпс на PS4 Pro вообще молчу. Как попадаешь в дым, так и начинаешь играть в пошаговую стратегию.
    11) Пропадают патроны для "Тихарь". Было 51 + 9 шариков, погибаю, загружаюсь и уже резко 10+9.

    Итог: игру отложил на полку, буду ждать пару месяцев, может хоть в людской вид приведут. Очень обидно, очень!

    A joke of a game compared to the previous ones. Semi-open world takes you by the hand whenever it wants to force you down a path. POP-in and framerate drop are ridiculous. Go back and replay Metro Last Light and you will have more fun.

Only Russian subs. I also hate the fact that I have to hold down Square so many times... Hold square to climb, hold square to prone, hold quare to open the door, hold square to move through a tight wall. God damn man, this is just boring overall and I'm saying this as someone who spends at least 50-60hours average on games because I also collect trophies. This is the second time I ditch a game so fast in this gen (RDR2 was the first).

    P.S. Not impressed with the framerate either.. This is no way a stable 30fps and the motion blur is just tragic..

    I love metro games, i was enjoying a lot previous metro games on ps4, but in metro exodus sensitivity is horrible, it makes it unplayable and only thing i feel is frustration. Developers, please, fix it, sensitivity in your game... Its just a totally mess.

    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.
