Have you not played the previous Metro games? They feature both the 4th Reich and the commies as factions(you get to shoot both, but one of the commies is a total fucking bro in last light).
2033 has you shooting more Nazis while Last Light is about not letting commies steal all your shit.

gameplay segment was nothing. it just showcases more advanced animation and better looking graphics I guess. shooting one shot then running away? stupid cinematic gameplay. and 15 seconds kill animation.
classically they are gameplay games. all this cinematic focus is a red flag.
>>
>>737065135
Eh, same shit you had in the Exodus trailer. Also all 3 Metro games have a pretty heavy narrative focus. They're vibe/atmosphere games more than gameplay games.

>>737059339
I have a fucking chud fatigue. Metro has always been dark/political with obvious soviet/nazi themes, meanwhile chuds are now shitting themselves at the sight or mention of any of that as woke. Any mention of Ukraine or anything anti-russhit is also working on the chuds like some red scarf on a bull, as if ukros ever did to them sucking off the goyest US president bankrolling jews in Israel.

The metro is an inherently mystical and occult place, so yes, it's filled with obscure unexplained phenomena while keeping it grounded.

>>737065884
The series always had supernatural elements but it was never fully confirmed whether these were radiation-induced hallucinations or actually supernatural. Standard stuff like ghosts(they look like nuke shadows), magical rivers, visions of the past or future, talking pipes, etc.
The presentation in the games leans more towards actually supernatural.
There's less of these in Exodus and most of them happen in the most heavily irradiated place in Russia so at least with Exodus it leans more towards hallucinations caused by your brain getting fried by radiation.
>>737065458
Then how do you distinguish between games that are fun to play because the core gameplay is innately engaging and games that are fun to play because the theming around the core gameplay elevates it? This is most noticeable with horror games, like Silent Hill's(the original) story is nothing to write home about and the gameplay is ~ok~ but the game is great because of its atmosphere.

I don't think he'd take the role of being in control to a point where he'd be abducting kids forcefully.
That's the whole point of the past 3 games, is getting away from being controlled, now somehow he'd be the controller? To do what, bring people to an actual better place?

Iunno, if they make us going against Artyom/Anna, I'm definitely not buying.

>>737068045
>the faction system that's purposefully built around keeping people underground
The Reich is the faction with the most surface colonies out of all the factions, that's why, and the ones with an active goal of pursuit towards it.

Is this same Reich as we saw in the first two games or a new Reich?

>>
>>737068146
Artyom's end goal is to bring people to lake baikal using Aurora. It's completely irrelevant how many mudhuts the reich has when it's all centered around Moscow anyway.
>>
>>737068259
But I mean is it the same apparatus, the same state as the Fourth Reich was saw in 2033 and LL? What happened to the old Fuhrer? The Wiki doesn't say.
>>
>>737067073
I don't think they'll make Artyom the bad guy, but they might kill him off.
He came back to Moscow, spread the message about the outside world, then died and now his message is being used by some other guy to control people.
Or maybe it's like the 2035 book where everyone is retarded and doesn't even want to leave so Artyom fucks off with only a small handful of people and then this new guy takes over(this takes place like 4 years after Exodus).
Maybe the full Aurora crew even returns at some point to help you out.
>>
>>737068089
I don't think this is the same guy who died at the start of 2033. "Hunter" is a pretty common nickname after all.
>>
>>737068496
No idea about that, the last we saw of the metro was in 2035 and Exodus, but Last Light saw to it that the communists were intensely crippled and had a famine going on, Hansa was corrupt, and the Spartans lost their commanding officer as he went with Artyom along with other qualified operatives. The Reich, however, only strenghtened themselves after Last Light and 2035, but what happened between then and 2039 is hard to say.
>>
>>737059382
You fellas really must be aching for butthurt to see it everywhere.

Artyom is retired with his qt wife and 4 children in a siberian paradise why do so many people want to ruin his happy ending?
>>
>>737067864
I recall, but like other anon said>>737067926

He wants to return and get other people out of the metro, there are no 'occupying' forces on the surface as they were told, all their comms are being scrambled so they cannot communicate outside of specific channels etc.

I hardly see Artyom as being the bad guy somehow. That'd be fucking retarded.
>>
>>737068496
They're using the same uniforms at least.

OH MY GOD SOMEHOW THE FURHER HAS RETURNED, WE MUST STOP THE CHUDS ARTYOM!

>>737068527
If they kill off Artyom that'd be the biggest gut kick.
That'd just ruin all of the past 3 games and I'd be disappointed they couldn't write anything else outside of relying on a great protagonist dying for a sob story or some shit.

Yeah, what i got from the trailer is that the fascist faction took over and now you have to fight back or something like that
Maybe i got it all wrong but watching the dev commentary it seems they're going in that direction

That'd miss the point of the Metro universe so fucking hard, they never depicted the factions as either straight up good or bad
The entire point was to criticize war as a whole, and that everyone in their mind is convinced that he's doing the right thing and that justifies his actions.
Fucking hell in Last Light you literally get betrayed by your commie friend and then later it turns out the commie leader is actually an adolf hitler lookalike lmao.

>only Artyom and his friends know this for sure, plus some random people probably
That's all the actual facts, yeah? The fake narrative of NATO occupying Russia is book only, the game lie is that Moscow is the last metro standing. And that the government remnants are the Invisible Watchers is also a book only thing, in the games you only know they set up the jammer and communicate with some people. But not to the point of all the main factions being their puppets, as is in the books.

>>737070385
Okay and? What about the fourth reich somehow being able to take control of the metro and then starting doing nazi things misses the point about these games?
If anything the only thing that might bother me depending on how they tell this story is how the nazis became so powerful in the first place. Them being one of the most evil factions within the metro is nothing new.

Who said so?
>>
>>737071595
The commies are present in the canon and they're complete cunts. They send suicide meat waves and the most prominent communist character is a traitorous piece of shit that nearly kills Artyom. They even infiltrate the Order with a jew double agent. The Nazis straight up win against the communists and that's why they're the final threat of Last Light. There are capitalists as well in their own faction but their contribution to the central conflict is as a neutral third party just letting everyone else fuck everything up while sending medical aid after the fact. They're gutless cowards.

Regardless of how you felt about it, Exodus is the most compelling formula for open world games going forwardd. We need to do away with needlessly large static worlds that are just filled with ubisoft fetch quest shit as a sad excuse for side content, and replace them with a series of maps that are basically expanded hub zones like the ones that can be found in games from franchises like Deus Ex or KOTOR. That way you can still have a sense of exploration, while also making sure that most of the content is handcrafted and meaningful, compared to "Outpost 11 out of 25 destroyed".

The watchers are the remnants of the government. They hide in a secret bunker inside of the Moscow's metro.
>The fake narrative of NATO occupying Russia is book only
It's the entire reason why in Exodus Miller acts all retarded once the crew steps moves away from Moscow.
>And that the government remnants are the Invisible Watchers is also a book only thing
>But not to the point of all the main factions being their puppets, as is in the books.
Both of these are in the game.
>>
>>737071854
This is set in 2039, I believe Last Light is set around 2035 or so.
The Red Line is wiped out, and the Nazi high command were wiped out. The Order was also wiped out. The only standing factions would be the remnants of both factions' standing military, and Hanza who are capitalist and control trade routes.

The most logical major faction should be Hanza but they are not interested in doing much beyond controlling trade and enforcing their home station which was connected to several others in a ring. I don't remember how much of a standing Army they had sans The Order through Polis (they were in effect allied with each other, Hanza sends aid during the war) so with them all dead Hanza might be too weak militarily to stop another war or seize the entirety of the Metro. Iirc they were also responsible for The Invisible Watchers, but we don't learn how many men they actually committed to that.

>>
>>737072149
you're just describing open level design, not open worlds but I agree. Large, open ended maps that give the player freedom to explore, find new ways to get around, have some mini objectives to do, optional content, quests, etc.

Basically a more immersive sim style formula where each map is a large level with a lot of stuff to do, and it's highly detailed but once you finish the level you move onto another one. .

Iirc yes which is why I brought them up, but we don't know how many people they had committed to that. Hanza didn't seem interested in the LL conflict too much. Polis is basically fucked and no longer has an army.

Nazi high command was not wiped out, the fuhrer is very much alive at the end and the nazis are stronger than ever by the end of the game.

Which of the books are good?

>>737072278
I mean in Metro Exodus the Shadow Government is literally how the game starts, Artyom accidently turns off the radio jammer and they learn the rest of the world is alive and leave Moscow and don't go back.

I know the author HATES Russia and can understand why, but is portraying them as NSDAP really necessary? This is not only an insult to NSDAP but also contradict the lore of the metro universe, the neo-nazi in the book and game only controlled three station while most stations were controlled by the communists. Why is it always need to be some Nazi thing with these Ukrainian retards? It was the USSR who genocide and starved their people pre-ww2 and it was an ex-KGB agent with Soviet and tzarist infatuation who invaded their shithole right now. Seriously, what is wrong with these Ukrainian faggots?

>>737072401
Artyom says in the good ending of Exodus that he'll return to the Metro iirc. So he could be in play, but I doubt he became fucking neo-hitler. The good ending of LL is definitively canon so Artyom doesn't like killing people all too much.

Yea that's exactly what I meant even if I was misusing open world. It's just a better design as a far as I'm concerned. Even though they're a shell of their former selves, I feel like Bethesda is one of the only companies I can think of that did real open world games well, and it was Skyrim that started the whole craze for the genre in general.

We don't have a draft, you retard. I'm not from ukraine which kidnaps people from the streets

It's the other way around. All of the factions exists solely to curb the population of the metro. They're all puppets answering to the government.

Eastern Europe in general still hasn't gotten over the Nazis. Especially boomers. Just hearing someone speak German gives them PTSD.
>>
>>737072526
I did like what Exodus did with that kind of design, but at the same time the maps still felt kind of empty because there wasn't like a ton of specific side content you could do, or NPCs to meet and talk to, or hidden things like upgrades to your weapons or whatever to find. It was a good starting point but it still needs a bit more.
>>
>>737069296
I've played all the previous games, it just seems like heavy handed shit we've seen before in other media. I'm tired of it, we already had the nazis in last light. It feels especially weird in our current political climate where everyone hates israel. More propaganda-y eternal victim shit.
>>
i'm just curious to see if they're creating a new splinter faction of dark ones or if they've decided to canonize the bad ending in last light so now they're back to do some Great Purge shit

I'll be really surprised if rangers don't show up in the middle of 2039 and flip the entire narrative from the reich to invisible watchers.
>>
>>737072612
Volga was perfect in my opinion. Caspian is the one that feels like a shitty Far Cry clone. Taiga was very railroaded so it's barely open world.
>>
>>737072651
They don't need to canonize the bad ending to make a power vacuum. All the Spartans die except a handful and the Red Line and a lot of Nazis are dead. It makes sense the Nazis are the primary antagonists, they were simply the most fit after the events of LL either way.

Yea that's fair. I should have specified open world RPGs. For whatever reason, games like morrowind and oblivion are the only open world ones that really ever clicked for me. Every other open world game I've played always left me feeling that it could have been better if it was just a series of open levels.

Caspian sucks but it makes up for it with Novosibirsk and The Two Colonels is probably the best DLC in Metro and one of the best DLC stories ever. It's definitely worth it to push through Caspian to experience.
>>
>>737072840
The game goes back to being kino after that. Especially the final section where you go back into a Metro. Just get through it.

Sam's DLC is also good but the tedious map kind of ruins the replayability.

Artyom and his crew ended up going to Lake Baikal. Why the fuck would they come back? Would the journey to and from there even be possible given the game's timeline?

>>737072203
How sure are you of this? I was pretty sure that I remember how the game is, but after some Googling I'm confused and definitely mixing stuff up with the book.
>The watchers are the remnants of the government.
That's what they claim to be, and the Yamantau thing is just a fakeout. I agree that they most likely are, but it's not confirmed ingame.
>Miller acts all retarded
Miller was in contact with the government remnants who lied to him that Moscow is the last Russian city alive, but that's because everything else is nuked, not because WW3 is still going on and there's NATO forces in Russia. I'm somewhat sure of this one.
>Both of these are in the game
The government spreading the Watchers myth I agree, but I don't think anyone makes this connection in game.
For the factions being Watcher puppets, this one I disagree. I can't find an actual source of this being ingame, apart from people commenting about it with what seems book lore. Who would even tell you this ingame, obviously not Miller.
>>
>>737072895
yeah I wonder why "pol vomit" is happening when the entire trailer (preceded by the lead dev going "slava ukrani") is just WW2 era nazis shipping kids off in trains and brainwashing kids
it's just like metro 2033 dood
>>
Someone compare this to the previous trailers to see if it was always like this. Metro definitely had political factions but it never felt so heavy handed and generic like this. It was more about the bleakness and confusion of the metro. I was hoping it'd lean more into the hopefulless of Exodus' good ending and have us trying to rebuild or something. At the very least I'm glad the dark ones are back.
>>
>>737072963
Didn't hold a candle to me to The Two Colonels. I didn't care for Sam as a protagonist at all.
The Two Colonels is just really fucking good. Miller coming to terms with the pointlessness of his militaristic fanaticism, Khelibnikov's entire story, Miller recognizing a brother in arms and you know they'd have been great friends, him saluting him, both of them doomed by their faith in their higher ups, it was just really fucking good man. And you get to watch the entire Novosbirsk metro system slowly dying. The entire time you know there's no way out but everyone is just clinging to denial.

Do we know anything about new gameplay mechanics and how the game is going to be structured because the reveal was weirdly vague about all that stuff
