"Metro: Last Night Redux"-- thoughts on game please

Both games are pretty enjoyable and offer a great setting for some comfy moments.
They can be wonky in terms of stability and suffer from a morale system that depending on your playstyle restrict your choice of actions in the end Not that that really matters anyway.
I recommend going for the hardest difficulty from the get go.
It's the only modern shooter I know that (on the highest difficulty) will allow you to mess up so bad that you can ruin your savegame.

Extremely close quarters, I almost always have some form of shotgun on me.

Metro 2033 was great. Metro Last Light had crappy console graphics, redid all the characters' appearance so instead of haggard slavs they look like American action heroes, the "moral" system is bad compared to the first, the whole story feels way too film-like and fantastic and lost the subtle vidya quality.

Get 2033, enjoy it, there was never a sequel.

...

Do you even cheeki breeki?

Hell yeah

I didn't like it, the controls were all kinds of fucked compared to the original and it didn't run great either. I disliked that the knife became just a quick melee button instead of an equippable weapon and that throwing weapons like knives and grenades all got mapped to a directional thing to be quickthrown and the UI to choose them didn't show up in Ranger (HUD-less) mode so you couldn't ever see how many you had left or which you had equipped. Sucked to ruin stealth by accidentally tossing a grenade instead of a throwing knife because you couldn't check what you had equipped.

you are a fag, the game looks like it sucks, you are a fag for wanting this game…

the original 2033 has a better and more advanced lighting system. They nerfed the lighting in the Redux remaster so that it could run at 60fps on consoles.

It's a stalker game with long corridors.

What? What the hell have you been looking at that you think you're a sniper? Most of the game is set in subway networks and maintenance tunnels. I mean there is a sniper rifle in it but it is certainly not a sniper game if that's what you're thinking. Most of the game is best spent using an assault rifle or shotgun.

If it not being a sniper game doesn't make you not want to play it, then play it. It's a good game, if the redux versions did ruin the graphics a little.
