Metro: Last Light

[ebPD8PePfC]

Oh fuck I hate corridor shooters. The world is static and mechanically boring. The exploration is limited to nooks in a corridor rather than an actual place to explore. The mediocre gun play along with the rudimentary AI pose zero challenge. Sneaking is fun but since the game uses checkpoints instead of quick saves, the obvious choice when enemies find you is to kill everyone rather than restart from the beginning.
The first 4 hours had maybe 1.5 hours dedicated to FPS related activities. The rest were cutsences disguised as gameplay, with a muted protagonist who communicates less than a dog. What the fuck.
I'm apparently half way through the game and I don't know why I bothered.

Here's a short summary of the masterful storytelling you can expect in Last Light:

Last Light is easily the weakest game in the series. 2033 is really good for what it is, and Exodus is fantastic if you enjoy a good post-apoc setting.

It's a dumbed down version of Fallout 3

Other than being post-apoc, it's nothing like Fallout 3.

I know, it's nowhere near as good as FO3. Thanks for correcting me.
