Metro 2033 Redux
About
Metro 2033 Redux is a rebuilt extended version of the original post-apocalyptic first-person action shooter Metro 2033. The game saved its pace and atmosphere of the gone world and except numerous technical issues, added several survival elements to the gameplay. The main plot is based on Dmitry Glukhovsky’s book Metro 2033. According to the storyline, the Earth was devastated by the nuclear war, and only a few people were able to survive hiding in the underground warehouses. Players assume the role of Artem, 20-year-old inhabitant of Moscow underground, whose aim is to learn more about the anomalies called the Dark Ones. With the remastered version of the game developers added some visual effects: new high-quality textures, shaders, dynamic light and weather (on the surface) systems. The gameplay was also extended with various realistic features like bots’ intelligence and collectible resources count. Within the game, players face two new difficulty settings (Survival and Spartan), which are expected to improve the gaming experience.

Metro 2033 Redux reviews and comments
Хорошая игра. Из недостатков: неинтересный сюжет. Но приятная графика, стрельба и сама атмосфера компенсируют этот недостаток.
Final Score: B
Microsoft from Deutsch
Metro 2033 Redux is not a "run 'n' gun" FPS: even in the so-called Spartan Mode (where you have relatively big amount of ammo and gas mask filters) every single bullet counts. Add a checkpoint saving system to that and be prepared to frequently die and repeat the same part of the game again and again until somehow succeed. This repetition might be quite nerve-racking and at times only a dense atmosphere and an interesting story kept me in. Sometime stealth is an option but it only works against humans and not muants.
So if you like relatively difficult FPS games that require patience in redoing some pieces over and over again than this might be perfect for you, otherwise I would not recomment it. Also note that the game is as linear as possible, so if you like exploring the game world and taking your time in it, Metro 2033 is surely not your kind of game.
