He doesn't own the original Metro 2033 vanilla game on Steam

>he doesn't own the original Metro 2033 vanilla game on Steam
>he's 'excited' for Metro Exodus
LMAO enjoy your Redux/Last Light garbage.

I do, got around 20h on it.

What does Redux even add to the game, graphics aside?

>he doesn't own the original Metro 2033 vanilla game on Steam

but user, I do?

I still don't get it. What's so different between the original and redux? Which one should I go with?

Last Light's stealth system is all I think. Thrown weapons are also not a separate weapon anymore, there's a dedicated thrown weapon button now.

Yes apparently people are ok with the huge changes that made the original so good.
I was told that as a /k/ommando I am retarded for wanting good game.
I know few of you are kids but god damn.

I bought retail when it came out, and then sold it to some idiot on Amazon.
He didn't even try to refund it.

Changes to the levels and story.
it is not canon.

Played the original years ago but only got so far as the library because PC killed itself.

Played Redux on PS4 recently and the only change I didnt like was Artyom's English VA, so I switched to Russian. I didnt really know what other changes they made except for maybe the lighting? It felt more or less the same.

Redux dumbed down the AI, made it more action-y and less horror-y and killed some of the atmosphere with the new engine.

What does it change about the story?

Nothing, he's shitposting.

I enjoyed Last Light significantly more than 2033.
another game with less linearity and bigger and more open levels (not an open world though) is like a dream come true.
Exodus is shaping up to be the best Metro game yet, just hoping it won't be hindered by performance problems.

There's clear options for the original or more Last-Lightish gameplay though

My main issue with 2033 is that you're almost always following in the footsteps of another NPC, literally. The few occasions when you're left on your own and can explore are great though.

I played the shit out of vanilla 2033, then I played the shit out of vanilla last light and then I bought the redux versions when they were £5 and I played the shit out of them. I'll play the shit out of exodus when it comes out too. What you gonna do about it user? WHAT YOU GONNA DO SUNSHINE? NOTHING. YOU'LL DO FUCKING NUTHIN

Never got the autistic scream level of hate for the redux', still the same game at the core

Gets rid of those armors aswell

t.never played the game
Stay that way kids

It doesn't change the story at all you cunt.

I've played through vanilla 2033 twice and Exodus looks like the best one yet. The level design and adventureesqe progression looks fucking incredible.

What are these changes user?

>still the same game at the core
not even close to fucking true
>completely obliterated shooting mechanics with recoil designed for consoles
>completely obliterated stealth and lobotomized AI
>completely fucked and half assed lighting reworks
>all for barely shinier textures that are ruined by the gimped lighting anyway

Can someone explain whats worse in Redux?

I liked how they had the 28 days later music for the trailer

Honestly I want to see what happens to Artyom after 2035 and how the rest of Russia looks like.

Day 1 buy from me. This game literally saved E3 from being complete shit.

>watches scripted E3 demo that doesn't reveal all the invisible walls
You'll be lucky if you even get as much non-linearity as 2033 offered.

You did get it, didn't you?

>implying 2035 is canon

It's the only Metro game I own. I also have a book, haven't read it yet, thought.

What is this?

If it's hostile, you kill it.

The fucking author confirmed yesterday that Exodus is a direct sequel to 2035. Of course it's canon.

As long as they leave out all the Illuminati bullshit, I'm fine.

>He hasn't read the books
>He thinks his opinions matter

Oh shit dog. I really need to get to reading the series. LL was 2034, right? Wonder why they skipped 2035 to make Exodus a sequel of it.

I do. Shame it's shit. I will never understand why people like this cinematic "follow a guy in a corridor while he talks and some canned animation plays" game but hate when so many others do it. The combat isn't even all that fun outside the few times it game shuts up and let you actually play it and kill some humans and not those boring fucking monsters.

agree

2034 and 2035 are shit though, Glukhovsky was a one hit wonder with 2033.

>no separate knife weapon slot
>throw-able knives connected to a quick button making them a bitch to throw on Ranger
But the worst crime of all
>changing that sexy analogue watch to a digital one
But I will remain cautiously optimistic for Exodus. It was the only thing worthy for me this year from E3.

...

I got the Redux bundle, any way to make the lighting look like vanilla? Im used to stalker games.

Dont really care about the gameplay changes, i heard theres a survival mode or something.

The digital watch makes no sense. To even get those tubes to light, you need high voltage.

Shambler a sex but the Duplet was my shotfu. Can't quite remember but couldn't you choose which barrel to fire with the Duplet?

>le cinematic corridor shooter
>v likes it because it didn't sell well
Pottery

>Not liking post apoc slav settings
It's like you don't even want to go stalking.

Nope, Redux 2033 was heavily downgraded to run at 1080p/60fps on Consoles

Last Light Redux is about the same though

I played original 2033 and then Last Light Redux and thought LL: Redux was a far worse game. I really liked original 2033. Hope Exodus isn't trash.

Yeah, left and right mouse click corresponded to left and right barrels. Clicking both fired both.

Yep one trigger for each barrel, dropped in LL because you could aim with it. Also Shambler and Uboinik were actually different guns funnily enough since the former could take a bayo and had shit range while the later had faster reload time and shot.

You're also forgetting that it added invincibility frames to some of the animations.

this.

Slav games can either be really shit, or 10/10 masterpieces. There is no in-between.

The book is like that. He is rarely ever alone.

To be fair being alone in a Metro game is one of the most harrowing experiences especially if its any near the areas with ghosts or just a shit load of spiders. NV scopes were my true friends in areas like that. At least that was during the time when Khan wasn't a doohrag wearing hippie desu.

I fucking love little features like this.
>Lighter flame points in direction you need to go
>Knives bounce off of armor and metal
>Headlamp charging
Can't remember too much since it's been a good while since I played but I just love it all. Only way to make it better is if it's basically Metro+Stalker with all the artifacts and blowouts.

Can you even imagine a blowout in Metro grafix? Jesus muh dick.

Setting is the only thing I like. But other than that there's nothing here, it plays like any boring Call of Duty game

You should read the books, the fear of the metro tunnels were psychological and supernatural and reading the book is very engrossing to the point that I felt more claustrophobic than playing it

It plays nothing like Call of Duty and you are clearly mentally retarded if you think it does.

Metro 2033 has a bit deeper stealth and shooting mechanics but it's also clunkier and buggier. Redux versions are more polished overall, better for replays imo.

The subtleties with the ghosts was one of my favorite parts. They're just present enough to be really unsettling without resorting to any jumpscare nonsense

>Plays like CoD
Nigga that's an insult. Plays nothing like it other than being a story driven shooter as well, but even then CoD is still completely on the rails of the roller coaster while Metro has moments where you can get off and walk around before getting back on.

>playing last light
>stare at the kremlin star
>nothing happens
I liked how in 2033 when you were alone, especially on the surface there was a constant feeling of dread. It was missing in Last Light.
I'll still probably buy Exodus though.

>contextual takedowns
REEE

This. The plane flashback/cutscene always makes my heart pump. It's such a strange feeling. The first time I saw it I was feeling genuine fear.

Still gives me the same anxiety every time I see it.

Little features
>small indents can be seen on the backs of spent rounds in the revolver to show how many are left
>player holds their weapon close when approaching walls
>dirty rounds have a lower powder grade making them sound like shit while military grade sounds like thunder in the metro tunnels
>the entire combat section in the library can be avoided by simply staring them down.
>armor plates, ammo pouches, gas masks actually serve a purpose in protecting the individual from harm.
>the sound of all your inventory dropping upon death
>the watch using the time from your actual clock

I was sad that nothing happened as well. I actually avoided looking at it for a while until I noticed nothing was changing when I glanced at it.

>nothing happens
The one big problem for the game and its setting. That shit was basically the Brain Scorcher or other psy fuckery of Stalker. You just don't go near it unless you're equipped or know what to do/not to do

What does looking at the Kremlin have to do with anything?

Am i the only one that thought that artyoms VA was better in the original 2033?

>SENGING PIEPEZ section
>don't put your ear next to the pipes
>tfw

He was, thats why I switched to Russian when I played Redux.

>>stare at the kremlin star
>>nothing happens
Was something supposed to happen when you do this?

I never bought the Redux, is it that bad?

nope, the old guy's voice was awesome, i can understand why they couldn't use him in last light, but the young artyom voice actor sounds like shit

is there a more disgusting language on earth than spanish or portugese

in the book there was an Anomaly that would cause you to almost act like a zombie until you looked away. Artyom ends up looking at it once in 2033 I believe

Read the books.

>grasping so desperately to the original game since metro became popular after redux
lmao its the same game you stupid hipsters

IIRC, there was some crazy blob monster that had hypnotic mind fucking powers that happened when you looked at the stars. It made you go zombie and head into the Kremlin to feed it.

>Playing first game
>See homeless people
>Each asking for bullets
>Damn, bullets seem like they are pretty important, but I don't wanna be a dick
>Give a bullet to each homeless person that asks

>Play through a few missions

>The game never kept track of who I gave my expensive and valuable bullets to
>Literally wasted fucking dozens of bullets
>Quit game and uninstall

Fuck off you fucking stupid game. Don't give me the option to be a nice guy and then spit in my face with absolutely no change to the gameplay whatsoever for being a nice guy.

At least make those fucking homeless not ask me for any more shit.

Read the book.
The stars were magic or something and anyone who looked at them would get hypnotised and just stand there staring at them until they died of exposure or something found them and killed them.
Artyom ends up looking at them and is transfixed but the person he is with pushes him over and breaks his line of sight so he snaps out of it.

Well they did cute a lot o shit from the books that could have made it into the game like the doomsday worm cult, Artys fear of rats and Hunter shooting niggers because he thought they were the dark ones.

Played this shit on console. It wasn't good.

Is Last Light good?

>he doesn't know about the morality system

>I fucking love little features like this.
Silly user, how could you forget:
>spider webs slow down your movement and can halt your sprint
>can burn them with the lighter

>all that shit
Phew man, reinstalling as we speak.

It's Italian you fucking numbnut.

Yes

You could stack karma that way to a point you fucking faggot. Also you don't get a prize irl if you give to the homeless. You join st get a nice feeling you helped someone who was down on their luck. Kill yourself my man

Yes

it's more of a shooter than 2033, but it's still a fun experience.

I think the Watchers could have been better. In the books they stalked the shit out of Artyom while he was on the surface.

I also imagined the librarians to be little gnome people when I read the book. No idea why.

>he didn't blow through a playthrough worth of miltary grade boolits on mushroom vodka, hookah, a sexy night with that qt redhead at the bar and russian lapdances.
Sucks to be you brah,

>mfw having both in non-redux format and excited for exodus anyways

Stay mad.

I never beat Metro 2033 because I find it too boring. I get an hour or two in and then never play it again.
I think I just don't like FPS games.

First time playing these, I have Redux versions. Is it possible, and should I play Russian dialogue/English subtitles?

To my shame I only have it

of course

Who /hopingAnnagetsoffedearly/?

>"lmao fucking faggot little rabbit you ain't shit I bet you don't even have 300 confirmed kills like me"
I wanted Artyom to smack her, either with words or physically. And then the extremely forced """romance""" was even worse, I felt nothing but contempt.

Honestly, they could have had him romance his adoptive Dark kid in some fucked up incestual way that only slavs can accomplish and it would have been better than what we got.

Just pirate the original versions, you nigger.
