I never was really interested in the first Metro game. This one isn't peaking my interest either.

Looks like it will keep some of the atmosphere of the first game, which was the primary reason Metro 2033 was so well liked. I still can't really get over the fact that, in a post apocalyptic russian society, people would still find the time to resurrect a dead political system and create Nazi-esque uniforms.

Also: The C Symbol just makes me feel like we're attending a rally of very enthusiastic copyright lawyers.

They just need to make Metro games a more RPG focused game before i'd be interested in it at this point.

I dont think the STALKER series fleshed out their environments quite like Metro does. So if we're talking STALKER with METRO's level of detail then, yeah, that'd be good. STALKER makes for an empty world for a few scavengers METRO makes for a striving world of small communities forced to survive in the subway systems.

@Sin4profit: I suppose yeah, but I don't think that kind of game will every really happen. A game the size of any of the Stalkers with the detail of Metro would be one hell of the development cycle. But man it would be incredible.

@AlexW00d: Dunno, with the nature of Metro's fiction i'd imagine you could instance one subway tunnel to another, Block off entry to surface areas and unblock those surface area barricades when it's appropriate for the story. Then you're just on a funneled surface area map just like in Metro 2033.

Really all they need is better iterations with, and/or between, the different communities that live throughout the tunnel system. So it feels like you're more a part of that world then just site seeing as you pass by, i think.

Although I don't like your opinion nor do I see the point to comment on a video of the game like you were asked a question about it, I don't fight your freedom to do so.
 
I am so looking forward to this game. I can't express that well enough :D

So two different types of games then? ;)

Actually it's not. The first was very story based and linear but there was many parts that were open to an extent and not corridorshooter at all.

"or through an underground Nazi platoon."

Use "an" instead of "a" when the next word starts with a vowel. It even rolls off your tongue easier saying, "an underground.." instead of "a underground".

Sorry. Internet.

@Agent47: RPG "focused" is a poor term on my part. When i think of it i think of the prison sequence in the original Chronicles of Riddick. Just various side missions to make the confined community spaces a little more meaningful and alive. As is it isn't much more involved then a cart ride with animatronic characters...it's sight seeing and not so much interactivity.

Love how all the dudes strike the same pose at the same time when the guy fires the shot into the air. Comical. I was actually interested in this game after the first trailer, now, not so much.

They are Russians, hence why they are speaking Russian. This is set in the Moscow Metro. Some stations brought back Nazi idealism, whereas others brought back Communism and they figured they'd fight a 100 year old war again.
 
I'm guessing the voiceover for the speaker hasn't been done in English yet. The opening titles did say this was pre-alpha@FuzzYLemoN said:

Don't know about that. There were similar sequences in the first game. I'd be banking on that chase sequence being user controlled just like a similar sequence in the first game.
