With how great the Redux versions were on console, it's good to see Exodus seems to be very solid on PS4 Pro, going on that footage.
Because its a fucking awful storefront and they outright just displayed pure greed in taking it off everything else 2 weeks before launch. It's inexcusable and people defending it should be fucking ashamed. Literally no issue with the game being on the EGS but buying it outright and taking it off Steam is a scumbag move.Hyped, can't imagine not playing a game just bc it changed digital store fronts (unless it was legit not in my region).
To me, it's looking like 4A's 'Witcher 3' moment. The stealth, general gameplay, and atmosphere has only gotten better with each iteration/remaster and it looks like Exodus is continuing the trend.I've not had the time to read/watch preview coverage. Fans of the series? Does it look like Exodus will retain the same creepy atmosphere and tactile interactions with the environment?
Also, are they keeping stealth as an optional approach? Leaning more or less into it? I like how the stealth was handled in the redux versions--simple and effective.

That's the vibe I'm getting too. Much like how Witcher 3 elevated the strengths of the previous games to new heights while expanding the scope and ambition of the series, Exodus seems to be doing the same for the Metro seriesTo me, it's looking like 4A's 'Witcher 3' moment.

Well, they jacked up the price by doubling it on my region.Hyped, can't imagine not playing a game just bc it changed digital store fronts (unless it was legit not in my region).
Just read this on Steam game forums. Looks like we are not even getting pre-load.
Ah well, I was going to download it on launch anyway. For my optic fiber it doesn't worth the time Steam takes to decrypt pre-load files.

Had it just been exclusive to EGS from the start would you still be angry? I want to know where the line is here: is it that they took it off, or is it that its exclusive? Because the latter doesn't bother me at all and is a common move made by stores/services/companies for a long time. The former I could see bothering me a smidge, albeit not enough to avoid a game I was interested in playing.
It's cool that you can outline for us what constitutes a "common move" made by digital game platform holders, since by all accounts what Epic and Deep Silver decided to do here is pretty new and unusual for PC digital gaming.
Yes because moneyhatting the rights to a game to be sold on your platform and taking it off others is disgusting. Doing it this late is just an even bigger kick in the teeth. I don't think I've ever seen a case where a game store has had exclusive rights to sell a game so I don't see how it's a common move. That would be like Amazon turning around and announcing they have a deal with the developers to only sell Metro Exodus there any you cannot purchase it anywhere but Amazon. Unheard of.Had it just been exclusive to EGS from the start would you still be angry? I want to know where the line is here: is it that they took it off, or is it that its exclusive?

If it had a multiplayer mode like they said LL was going to get(but never did)
It be a full price day one buy...
This universe has mp written all over it IMO.not every game needs a multiplayer mode, in fact they concentrated on expanding the formula and flesh out the world and not shoehorn a multiplayer mode in which was a wise decision in my book

WednesdayWhen's the review embargo up? Thinking of cancelling my order due to the bullshit surrounding it.
Bleh OK thanks. May cancel regardless as it may ship by then.
Console or PC?
I wouldn't go that far. The gameplay in Exodus looks exactly the same as in the previous games. They just added more environmental variety and more weapon customization. Exodus will very likely get similar sales and review scores to the previous games. It's not going to be 4A's breakout title like Witcher 3 was to CDPR.

I switched to a RTX card just for this game. Nvidia should be thankful I managed to buy from steam, 10 minutes before it was removed.
I don't really get the whole ray tracing hype. Yes, I can see it gives more realistic lighting and reflections when you pay attention to it, but my guess is it's also something you don't immediately miss when accidentally turned off. But maybe I'm just wrong and all.
On: Finished Last this weekend, right on time. Can't wait.
They have a huge impact on visuals so of course you'd miss them. I have yet to play BF5 without RTX on even though that would mean I could get an easy 4K 60, just because the reflections add such a dynamic striking component to the final image.I don't really get the whole ray tracing hype.
