Ignorance is not always bliss
This game appears to be perfect at first - all game play elements are excellent. So what gives? Firstly, the checkpoint Save system with only one save is awful. I am presently stuck on the surface with my gas mask filter about to expire ... and I've just hit a checkpoint save. Now I must reload the whole chapter from the start. As for gas mask filters, "... Most gas mask filters will last around 24 hours in an NBC (nuclear biological chemical) situation." Yet in the game a filter lasts two minutes. So instead of playing, you search for filters half the time. You have no idea where you should go: You know you must reach the church but there is no way to figure out which way it is. So it is trial and error - try this way, suffocate as your filter expires, reload; rinse, repeat. Secondly, I think we needn't another title infused with Russophobia. The game is based on a novel by a young Russian author Dmitry Glukhovsky (born in 1979). He wrote it in the early 2000s. When the Soviet Union collapsed he was 10-12 years old. He knows nothing about it. When he was growing up there was a lot of anti-Russian, anti-Soviet propaganda... revisions of history got to the point of saying that the USSR had nothing to do with freeing the world from German Nazis and at the cost of no less than 27 million soviet citizens butchered by the Nazis. I am American but I was born and raised in the USSR long before the author. I saw what "the evil Soviet empire" was really like. So to me the idea that the Russians who survived the nuclear Armageddon in the depths of Metro are twisted, crazed, murderous monsters divided into fascists and communists (both equally cruel and evil) is preposterous. It is criminal to imply that German fascism and Russian communism were the same. Play this game if you want your mind poisoned. If you have already played it or its predecessor, try to strike from your subconscious all thoughts about how inhuman and psychotic the Russians are - they are NOT.
