βοΈ fMeter {A-} Worth a play, if you enjoy Silent Challenges & Silent Exploration. However, if you're looking for Action Pack Story & Quick Mission, don't play it
π IMPRESSION:
* Year 2019: Game released, but I was too busy to look into details.
* Year 2023: Start playing for the first time, seem worth it
* 2 hours later: Feeling exciting to play new mechanic :D
* 5 hours later: Feeling boring :/
* 8 hours later: Finally exciting to play new chapter :D
* 11 hours later: Feeling boring :/
* 15 hours later: Dead city is not exciting like pre-sequel, plus bugged
* 31 hours later: DLC is not what I expected.
π TESTER MUST KNOW:
* Buying standard version will included Enhanced Edition
* Completed chapter is able carry over to Enhanced Edition, but not checkpoint save
* VRS = Variable Rate Shading = +performance -image quality
* Shading Rate = Super-sampling = +performance -image quality
* Game world timeline: Year 2036, the story Metro last light continue
* Change time of day by sleeping

βοΈ COMPARE TO METRO LAST LIGHT:
* Become semi open world
* Added salvage gameplay for crafting equipment
* Able to switch weapon attachment without meet with trader
* Added multiple checkpoint in saved history
* We can leave without waiting NPC to catch up
* Reduce monster encounter scene
* Support 14 languages
β οΈ RUMOR CHECKING:
* It is a hidden gem β Disagree, plot & scenario will not be same as the classic
* Definitely a worthy successor β Only for who love difficulties & exploration
* Blurry Image bug β True, happen on resolution below 1440p, require some tweaking
* A flashlight bug declared it to be "a gameplay feature" β True, very disappointed
* DLC is better than campaign β Only for who loves listen to conversation & drinks
