This will be great to play on the new PC I'll be building here soon.

I still want to get to Metro 2033, but haven't done so yet. I'm actually watching a stream of it right now while working though, and it is a cool thing.

Still never finished the first. I've tried a few times but it never quite clicked.

Hopefully this will get the attention the first game didn't get. Metro 2033 was largely overlooked in favor of Call of Pripyat, even though it should have been a hit with the CoD crowd.

Metro 2033 was awesome, but the bad AI almost killed the game for me. Let's hope the AI is a bit better this time, cause I fucking love this atmosphere

Hell yes, I think I will mainline 2033 when this comes out and play them back to back. Wiping off gas mask visors all day long.

Awww yiss. I'm hoping it's better than 2033, but more of the same ain't bad either. I also wouldn't mind some Eastern Bloc jank.

The last Metro game was the only first person shooter which has ever made me feel sick. I couldn't finish it because it each time I tried to play it I just got a headache and felt vomity. Hope this one is different.

I'll wait until it's $10. The pre-order shit makes me sick and I won't support them for restricting the entire Ranger mode to it.

First game had ranger mode, but only through DLC. I'm fine with getting it at release instead of later. I like to support the creators of things I like, so I'll prolly buy the game when it releases.

When that's Metro 2034 english translation coming out? Is it now? Better had be now, goddam it.

Man, who wrote this narrators script? You think the best way to hype people up for this moody, stealthy game is by having a narrator talk all over it in a sort-of jovial way? C'mon. C'mon, guys.

I really hope they do some cool moral system in this game like Metro 2033. They hyped it a bit in the trailer, so I guess there's something there, but I hope it comes back in a cool way. I really liked the natural feel of it the first time round. I'm all in for some Eastern Bloc weirdness. I'M ALL IN.

Finished Metro 2033 twice to see both endings. While in hindsight they themselves aren't really remarkable enough to warrant doing so, going through the game again was a lot like reading a good book for the second time. There's so much detail to the environment that, like Bioshock Infinite but to a lesser extent, it tells a story without any dialog.

While Last Light looks very similar, if it can build upon what was conveyed in the first game I'd buy it. I do hope the gun play is a bit better, the weapons in the first felt tinny and ineffective.

I'm guessing that the PC version will look amazing then. Big fan of Metro 2033 and have it on the PC and Xbox 360.

Worst fake-Russian accent ever. Guess I'll be playing this one with the native Russian audio too.

Can't wait to see Patrick get to S.T.A.L.K.E.R. eventually. Hopefully someone points him in the direction of the various mod packs that address the numerous issues of all three games yet don't completely change the experience (ala Stalker Complete or L.U.R.K.).

Looks like the AI might actually be kind of awesome. Hell, I'm happy to see an enemy that actually responds to the flashlight turning on behind them. Cool that he was more surprised than... angry? I'd expect a video game AI to just pivot in the "gun at the ready but not in the shoulder" pose awkwardly and start firing on you immediately.

I really need to finish the first game so I can get around to playing this when it's finally out. Can't wait!

2033 was flawed but beautiful, Infinite I'll catch up with later but this I need today.

We've got to the point now that I want to check this out but I'm really only interested in playing it if it comes out on PS4. Hope it's a launch title!

Maybe it's possible to go through the game without killing anyone. If not, maybe a player would want to do a run with killing as little people as possible.

I haven't gotten very far honestly, so I don't have a lot of expectations about the places the game is going, all I know is I need to stop forgetting to actually play it.

@assinass: I'm too busy looking at all the shadowing in that scene.

The way the game is described in this trailer..I kept expecting the narrator to call me stalker. I'm definetly looking forward to this game.. I know it is it's own animal, and maybe early next month will even take a chance and pre-order it on a on-line site.

For the millionth time, it's Ukrainian, only the book is Russian.

But yeah, the first game was surprisingly neat.

This game will be great, if for the sole fact that the developers have a passion for their product and an attention for detail; not to mention extra time to refine with the THQ collapse.

Acoustic guitar and a fake Russian accent that sounds more Mexican kind of ruins the mood.
