Bought Exodus on latest GoG sale. I'm not a fan of Metro's particular brand of post apocalypse, never liked the design of monsters that much and the slightly fantasyish feel. Like said above, give me Stalker or even Fallout over it. Not saying it's bad or sth just not my preference, maybe I just need to read the book. Still Last Light was really good to play, dense and intense.
Also, it sure is original, and a really strong point was the claustrophobic mood with the super hostile outside. Shame they straight ditched it for this one and kind of ruined it heh.
Anyway, I kind of never liked it in videos, and personal contact didn't really change it. Might be because of the mentioned shift in mood. The graphics has its insane moments, especialy lighting (obviously heh) but there's a lot of low res crap, not sure if all the clutter was worth it tbh. Also RT maks it look, IDK, too pleasant at times? Have to check the good old fake raster ver. to compare.
