I've reached the end of the Metro saga, and we finish off with the absolute peak of the series. Metro Exodus takes the atmosphere and worldbuilding of the previous 2 Metro games and combines it with a detailed and fascinating combination of open-world levels with linear setpieces. The gameplay in Metro Exodus doesn't feel like a continuation of the previous Metro games, but rather a spiritual successor to Far Cry 2. Guns can be meticulously customized but they must also be maintained. there are pros and cons to every decision the player makes from utilizing crafting materials to gun attachments to side quests and fighting enemies entirely. I played the game on hardcore and I wholeheartedly recommend it as it provided a level of tension that I found very satisfying. I also just want to put a spotlight on how much the 4A engine has improved from Redux; everything feels so much smoother and less janky, as well as the graphics on display are amazing overall. I played the enhanced version with RTX on and the game looked phenomenal. I look forward to the next project 4A has cooking, but with the war in Ukraine currently, that may be some time away. I send my regards to the Ukrainian team, and I'm gonna start harassing people to play the Metro games.
