Review on Metro Exodus for PlayStation 4 by Wiktor Janusz ᠌

Revainrating 3 out of 5

I wasn't thrilled with the product, but it can be used.

This is probably my most unbiased review. So many expectations. Since 2022, it has been on the list of must-haves (I don’t have many of them, as well as time to complete), as a result, disappointment. No desire to either replay the game or go through the DLC. Its pros: In general, this is probably a good game, by analogy with football - in the group of leaders of the second division. There is some kind of plot, a kind of road movie, it’s nice to shoot (although it’s not always necessary to do this), atmospheric open locations of the Volga and taiga, for fans of the modern crazy max from 2022, the Caspian will come in the same). Has cons: A lot of. Even too much for such a short game. Main: 1.1 The game is short. For some it may be a plus, but I like games where there are long stories, and you can even wander around. Hours that way for 100+) 1.2. see above. There is absolutely nothing to do in the locations, there are tasks with questions and crosses and that's it. There is no point in climbing and looking for something, we quickly run through the plot. 2. Plot. He is, and probably not the worst, but the feeling that there was an idea, but they did not bring it to mind in detail. Hong Kong is surrounded by signal jammers. For what? Why does a transport with fighters drive, catch and kill someone? If you need residents, why kill them? And why are they needed at all, they don’t produce anything significant, they sit in the subway, someone climbs from above, well, let them. Why waste resources on jammers and patrols? Okay, got out. Further frankly naive (read stupid) story about the command center / cannibals. We arrived at the Caspian Sea and immediately they sent us to save some lady. Who is she, how do we know her and we know that she knows where the entrance is so necessary to us, as we guessed that someone is attacking her "impregnable" tower (by the way, why, it’s enough to impose, she will crawl out of hunger herself). In general, there are a lot of holes, I would say the whole plot consists of them. Above are the main shortcomings that cannot be ignored. Further on the little things: pansy's teeth, ninja mode that puts everyone on any difficulty level in two hits, stupid mobs, non-natural character animations in some cut scenes, for some reason the ultra-reliable Kalash wedges regularly, the need to fend off monsters with your hands when the gameplay is reduced to a count -vu clicks per minute on one button of the keyboard (somewhere I saw this, only here it is necessary at least in 2 places and it’s very annoying - the gorilla doesn’t put a line from Kalash, but with a hand in her face a bams-grunt). And yes, for 2022 I would like a better picture. It's not that bad, but stuck in 2022-2022. 4k on 3080ti, all maxed out with no dlss and no wow effect.
