Not like this....

As of patch 1.0.9, HZD seems to be running pretty damn good. I am impressed with the performance, as Ive been waiting to play until the performance/crashes are fixed, and it seems like we are 90% of the way there. Kudos to the dev team for continuing to release patches and for listening to the community.

What an amazing story.

What a disappointment.

The only way that Gearbox could redeem themselves is if they released Krieg as a playable character.

Metro Exodus is near perfection, the story is great although is quite sad at times. The main campaign is excellently written and engaging.
The 2 dlc's are great as well; The Two Colonels & Sam's Story.
Playing the The Two Colonels, you'll feel like you are playing Metro 2033 and Last Light because of the weapons, and you get to go back to Moscow.

The new crafting weapons and gear feature was a nice addition as well. Its great to be able to mod your weapons at almost any time and there are a ton of mods for any occasion.

I am very impressed with Metro Exodus and I hope they continue this franchise.

9.5/10

+ Spectacular visuals & lighting; there is also a meticulous, franchise-loyal attention to detail
+ Environments are designed so well that it is absolutely jaw-dropping; level design, too, is excellent in every way
+ Voice-acting is superb, with virtually every actor delivering their lines with a professionalism that complements the game nicely; lip-syncing is less than admirable in comparison, but isn't so bad as to detract from the overall experience
+ Audio-design is literally perfect; soundtrack is appropriate and used well, & the ambient noises make for a deep and satisfying sensation of immersion
+ Everything stays true & loyal to the aesthetics & overall atmosphere of the first film
+ Engine is very well optimized, even on maximum settings; my PC seemed to barely notice it was running a game, & GPU temps were barely above idle figures
+ Atmosphere is rich, & postively pregnant with tension
+ Personnel logs, audio logs, and collectibles are enjoyable to collect, & do well to further tell the nuances of the game's story
+ Alien AI behavior is wildly unpredictable, therefore adding to the title's challenge & replayability
+ Crafting allows for a multitude of useful gadgets, traps & distractions
+ Game includes a challenging survival mode, puffing up the replayablity & competitiveness a bit

- Crafting UI feels awkward & unpolished, particularly when selecting components to commit
- Tons of tedious backtracking in the second-half of the game.

I highly recommend you get this game if you like being scared ♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥.

Seriously one of the best third person horror story shooters I have ever played.

Edit: I need to clarify, that this is still a good game. I actually enjoyed my playthrough, but it was marred with issues that I was not expecting this game to have. I do recommend it, only if you don't expect it to be like Doom 2016, but its not a great Doom game.


If you loved Doom 2016 like I did, you might want to watch some gameplay of Doom Eternal before you buy.

If you hate timed, first-person jumping puzzles and timed challenges, then you'll want to skip this one. If you hate 15 minute, bullet sponge, mini-boss battles, that frustrate more than excite, you'll also want to stay away. There are more issues, such as not enough ammo which causes you to have to constantly use the chainsaw, and I don't want to constantly be using the chainsaw, or constantly be using 1 gun for a specific demon (or else spend all your ammo killing that one demon because you didn't use the right gun).

Such a good game ruined by some frustrating design choices that brought the fun to a grinding halt for me.

I have the amount of hours i do (42) from leaving the game on while afk or falling asleep while paused/in the Fortress of Doom. I would say about 30 hours are actual playtime.

ITS ♥♥♥♥♥♥♥ DOOM, BRO@! DOOM ETERNAL HYPE TRAIN! YEEEEEEEEEEAAAAAAAH BABY!
