Metro Exodus

Anyone playing this?

I picked it at the weekend, and it's been consuming a lot of my spare time! 

Lots of fun, and I love the custom/makeshift weapons all set in such an interesting world.

The last two games are real hidden gems, and both some of my favourite shooters.

They do not get the credit they deserve!

The first two games are far from hidden gems They're extremely well known.

Fair comment, I really mean they don't get the credit they deserve compared to more 'popular' shooters. 

Especially when they first came out!

I've bought all of them, including the redux versions. Its since increased In popularity but the first game wasn't well known at the time.

I won't be buying the latest one as I don't want to support Epic Games after their takeover of the franchise. Fuck those guys. 

edit: Such good looking games though. Just dug through my old screenshots and found this:

Totally understand that chap, I bought a copy for my Xbox One X 

I didn't get a copy for my laptop for that exact reason. When it's on Steam, with a cheap code from CDKeys I will probably reconsider.

The Redux versions are bloody awesome!

Nevermind, that was an Epic Games key. Steam Keys are still up in the £40 area. Doubtful it will go much lower honestly as there's only a limited number of them out there now.

Loved the first 2, bought both around release.  Just super solid FPS gameplay and for me they hit that sweet spot between arcade and sim where you're somewhat easy to kill (if you don't keep your eyes peeled) don't have a ton of ammo and you have little jobs to do like wind up your light source/don respirator etc but without there being any boring tedium.

No idea what the real story is with Epic, but the fact Exodus has even more customisation and detail to the weapons and gear than previous titles makes me pretty sure I'll enjoy this game.  Will be purchased quite soon.
