I originally bought this on xbox when it came out because I had heard how much people had loved the past entries and I have to say, it didn't live up to the talk then, nor does it now. The same issues I had then I have now. The big one is just how weird the characters are/behave. The angles of their heads when they are talking to you is really strange and off-putting. Everyone is staring at the ground, and always has a resting face except for very few incidents. Not to mention, the interactions of this game don't feel like a modern development, but a game from the early 2000's instead. Graphically speaking on the non-enhanced version the game is very pretty and runs great. The combat isn't anything special and god the English voice acting is something else... and not in a good way. It honestly feels a bit like Dishonored (Which I hated playing) so that's probably why I don't like it. But even with that being taken out of the equation, it just feels like a game that was made by a novice company with only something like goat sim under their belt (then again, those people did put Satisfactory out so maybe I need a better example?). This game isn't that ground breaking or anything. Everything done here has been done so much better in so many different ways. I wanted to give it another try since I'm now on PC and generally like FPS RPG style games better here, but I still don't like playing it. I guess if you are a Metro fan and have been playing them since the first one came out, you will probably like this but it's just nothing special other than that. If you are on the fence and don't like the new generation of Bethesda games, then I would steer clear of Metro. I bought this on sale for $16, so at least I'm not out much if I decide to keep it. But this isn't a game I think I will put much more time than the 1 hour I have on it. Nothing about it is fun and so much is a turn off that I just hate playing it.
