Do you know the one about the Dark Railtracer? Let’s Play Metro 2033 Redux
Привет, товарищи! Welcome to
Metro 2033 Redux is the remake of the prequel to 2013’ s Metro: Last Light. Well, kinda. Metro 2033 came out in 2010 and people were quick to note the game had an amazing atmosphere and fantastic worldbuilding, which set it apart from other games. While it was well received, it had some issues which turned a lot of people off the game. I mentioned some of these issues during my Last Light LP:
In spite of this, the game did well enough that a sequel came out in 2013: Metro Last Light. Last Light delivered much better gameplay while still delivering the atmosphere and ‘feeling’ that made 2033 so unique, and while some people complained the game was too easy compared to 2033 (more on that later), it did well enough that 4A Games decided to update 2033 and Last Light to a slightly improved version of Last Light’s engine, and so the Redux versions came to be.
2033 made the most of the engine change, while the differences between LL and LL:Redux are minimal at best:
We’ll be going for the game’s canon ending. If you don’t know what that means, don’t google it and just enjoy the ride. If you’ve played LL or seen my LP of it, you probably know what this means. I may show off the differences between both paths but I don’t want to make promises at this point.
Along the way we’ll be getting all journal pages and I’ll try to show off the game as best I can, so we’ll be doing a fair bit of exploring and taking our time during the civilian sections to show off conversations and interesting stuff. I’ll try and get all safes along the way, but this will not be a priority, so if I notice I miss one I may just show it off as an extra after a video.
Update Schedule?
I’ll try and update once a week, probably on Fridays. I’m aiming at 20-30 min updates, so depending on length a single video may have more than one level.
Jesus H. Christ you still suck at FPS.
Still not a question. Still true.
Oh hey you missed X and also you didn’t mention that Y happens when you Z
Let’s get this out of the way: I’ll miss stuff. Fell free to point it out, just don’t be a dick about it.
Spoilers?
Let’s keep it spoiler free. I know that some of you may come from my Last Light LP I’d rather not start discussing things before they happen.
Warnings
Expect violence of the shooty/explodey kind, and and gigantic fuck-off spider-scorpion hybrids in some videos, which I’ll be tagging individually As with LL, this post will have the tags, the second post will explain exactly what to expect in a given video.
