![]() Although graphics fetishists might not be too impressed ( "Metro 2033" had been almost as visually stunning as "Last Light"), we are. How exactly does 4A Games manage to create such a consistent, credible game world where many other studios have failed? On one hand, it's all about excellent technology. Some players may feel reminded of the visual aesthetics of the "Stalker" series - this is no coincidence, since many developers of "Metro 2033" and "Last Light" had been involved with "Stalker" in the past. Only few first-person shooters manage to create a more immersive experience. As in the first part, we slip into the role of the nearly 20-year old Artyom who has to survive in this harsh and hostile environment.Īs expected, "Last Light" inherits one of the strengths of its predecessor: The extremely intense atmosphere. Among others, there are fascists ("Reich") and communists ("Reds"), but the subway tunnels are also populated by numerous horribly mutated creatures which are hostile towards the protagonist as well. This harsh existence without daylight or enough food is made even worse by a number of rivaling factions. After a nuclear war that has laid waste to Russia, the remaining humans try to hide underground. Missile base? "Dark Ones"? Without a fast-paced introductory video describing the preceding events, those who didn't play the first part would not be able to follow the plot.Īs the title implies, "Metro" takes place in the tunnels of Moscow's subway system. After the conquest of the missile base D6 and the subsequent proceedings, we are supposed to locate the (allegedly) last survivor of the ominous "Dark Ones". Last Light continues the storyline told in its predecessor seamlessly.

It is a little bit hard to play and a lot of stressed situations even on Normal level although it is very linear. Wanted to quit it a few times because of this. Metro Last Light Redux has more stealth possibilities and locations to use it if compare with 2033. More interesting places, tasks and stories then 2033.
