Omg same but it was mainly those dreams Artyom had of seeing Miller at the hill and telling him goodbye that got me the most. Knowing all they've been through they find a family with each other.
@@bernardoromero5009 Yeah it would've been greater, what I meant is dying as a hero, sacrificing everything like he did in the bad ending is great enough
Never have i ever in my life felt this much respect to a fictional game character as i felt for Colonel Miller. The Old man was with us from the start in Metro 2033. Found D6 together, then he got busy in last light as the Commander of D6 but does come at the end to defend it. And now finally in Exodus he went on his final mission with Artyom and died like a Hero. I salute you Colonel.
hell yeah bro he died as a soldier/hero and i give him high respect, i felt close to him like he was my own grandpa, may have been a grumpy old man but he still had that caring father figure in him since he wanted to protect his people and his most prized possession his one and only daughter Anna. I salute to him to.
So Captain Miller not only found the map, but finds artyom, goes back to find the kid, saves him from mutated beasts, carries him to the truck as well and drives us half way to the train. He is truly a legend, the real protagonist of the game. Salute.
COLONEL Miller. Get it right, trooper! And Both Miller and Artyom have been doing protagonist shenanigans for a long time. Miller's just been at it a lot longer than Artyom. He was a soldier when the bombs fell and raised the Spartan Order from the ground up, alongside raising his only daughter, earned the respect of his troops and the people of the Metro and got a cool personalized Railgun that nobody else had. It sounds like things a main character in an RPG achieves. He's had a life just as storied as Artyom's, and in the good ending Artyom has the chance to bring his own life even further than Miller's.
@@mohammedtemimi1980 From Damir, Duke, and Alyosha, you need at least 2 out of the 3 of them to be present and willing to give Artyom blood at the end. This is determined by your moral points in each chapter. Duke survives the Bridge Escape if you've been kind to the cult, saved their people from Bandits, and avoided killing them so they're willing to hold fire. Damir stays if you've done many things to help the tribal slaves in the Caspian Sea so he feels indebted to you and doesn't feel the need to stay to help his people. Alyosha must leave the Taiga on good terms with Olga and the forest children, so Artyom must avoid bloodshed with them whenever he can. If you fail the moral check he will be crippled and hold a grudge against Artyom for hurting Olga and the Forest children.
Man Metro Exodus probably one of the games that have best side characters ever, i feel so attached with the spartan squad, they are totally the best bros..
@@Genaysis_YTB I forgot to beat the guy that was beating the lady that drunk the water at the end, and I killed some slaves while rescuing Guil so he choosed to stay with Guil, I was sad AF because he was one of my favorite. And while listening to the radio after the area, I kinda deduce that he was going to be murdered but the gangsters. RIP Damir
On the good ending, what really got me was when Miller finds you dying, and you see he is seriously sick as well and he uses his only serum on you, as he calls you son :’).
they should have just had the good ending im kinda pissed i went through this entire game to have the bad ending, like who honestly wants to die at the end of the game? and not have the happy ending? makes no sense.
@@GX2re That's probably because you didn't play Metro with the unique Morality system in mind, I played this game trying not kill anyone who didn't shoot at me first
@@GX2re You pretty much have to avoid killing anyone unless they are shooting at you. For example, when a bandit surrenders, and you end up killing him, that will give you bad moral points. I got the good ending by doing that, only killing the people that shoot at me.
Yep, and when he pulled out his shot of the green stuff, my mind was going "you idiot, use it for yourself DON"T DIE ON ME NOW" If we continue Artyom's story next game, it will be very sad without Miller
@@ArthurMorganus yeah, When I saw him give me the shot i was like well at least I got the good ending. NOPE. still got the bad ending where Artyom somehow died. lol
@@sumireravenclaw8034 I was hoping Artyom didn't die during the ending. I'm glad he survived my ending. I was beginning to think if I did something wrong. RIP Miller.
I got the good ending on my first playthrough but man that bad ending is fucking sad, but also kinda awesome? Seeing Bourbon again blew me away as well as Khan. What an amazing game
I got the good ending first try to but the worst part is with Duke and Damir i know what i did for them to be ok but Alyosha I'm not sure if its because i didn't kill any of the forest people or because i made the bear flee on the first encounter.
@@deman182 You can't kill any of the Pioneers or Pirates, just speed through the first encounter by running away, and cutting the line and going up the ladder. You're supposed to fight him at the end.
Patchwork I think with Alyosha you can’t kill the Pirates after the girl said not to kill them. When she told me not to kill them I did it anyways and Alyosha got shot at the end of the mission.
I think it could. It wasn't too long they finally added the Sam DLC. This one could be sort of a Co-op survival game mode where you play different maps and try to survive with friends as much as you can against endless hordes of mutants.
XxGR3YW01FxX also adding multiplayer to a single player game is a bad idea in my opinion. Firstly it would be hard to implement, secondly, how would that even work?
I literally finished this gem of a game today. Throughout the game, I was worried about Anna dying but I failed to even consider that Miller would make the ultimate sacrifice so that both Artyom and Anna can live the life that they deserve. This final music and that ending sequence in general brought me to tears. Seeing our crew rush in to aid Artyom gave me all kinds of chills. And that ending scene where every crew member sits by our bedside either worried sick or giving blood while we talk to Miller in the afterlife and bid him farewell just brought a rush of emotions. It was all executed splendidly to say the least. Artyom is a hero. Miller is a legend!
Honestly when I finished the game I nearly cried since miller has been there in the 3 metro games, miller was a great character and the sad part was he even called Artyom son.
This is why we put so many hours into these games. The characters become real and you develop feelings for them. It's sad to see the credit rolls because when that happens you are taking one last look at your friends and saying goodbye. I like to replay certain games just to see my friends one more time.
Not a rocket science I only ever played blind ranger hard core and never got bad ending in any metro series however I did fuck up in bioshock 2 by harvesting those girls teeth what a monster I was
@that guy you never need that in exodus. Conversation moral points are in last light also you never ever need to skip fighting bad guys in any games it does not take away moral points. But if you shoot benevolent factions or kids of animals you get a penalty pretty straight forward tbh
@that guy that is not true tho in last light you get good ending if u spare bear cubs watchamn pup dragons pup on the roof if you listen to convos and spear commie guy . otherwise you can full kill wild life and other enemy soldiers that are not key story npc and you get good ending. i never got bad ending and i am pretty blood thirsty i just let go of full killing main npcs if they have understandable motivations.
Saddly that mission spoiled the end so hard. Because whether you get the good or bad ending you will wonder : so duke can either survive or die. So how could that affect the ending ? Oh right he mentioned something about blood types .
@@Jeffro2510 It didn't. In the book the Spartans were paired on their bloodtype so that if one goes down in the field the transfusion is always available. Duke's comments were a throwback to that.
Well, to be fair, Artyom is AB+, which makes him a universal recipient. He can take blood from any type. And if Duke had the same blood type, he could as well.
Just finished around 10 minutes ago with the good ending. I think the finale was the most intense yet most calm sequence I have ever had the pleasure of playing. There was no epic firefight and giant monster, just you fighting against your worst enemy: the environment, reminding you what the real horror in the post-apocalypse is. No game has ever made me so emotionally invested in its supporting characters and have an ending sequence that made me feel so many emotions at once before.
one of the only games making me feel the feels this much like the metro was GTA V i mean that game had such a great ending and you connected with the characters so well. also witcher 3 loved that game too
That's it! I saw people complaining that the game has no big fights or a main antagonist, but the real threat is there all the time, as you said, it's the environment! Metro was always about the atmosphere, the moral, and not big fights and bosses. This game is pure art, it's a gem when it comes to story driven shooters, I think it's the best I've played ever.
I guess the enhanced edition makes a difference. When you move Miller over, you can see through his mask and see his eyes wide open and lifeless. The pat came off as a "farewell, you did good...Dad"
I got emotional when the kid. was telling about how Miller fought the exact same mutants Artuom fought in this level, rat creatures, giant worms ect while carrying him on his back. To think that old man went through the same hell in this chapter.
he also was less equiped, he gave his railgun to Artyom, so it was even harder, from the beginning he wanted Artyom's survival chances to be higher than his
The 3 gun salute is so sad, knowing that Artyom let his friends down and allowed people to die. Turned into a monster who butchered everyone in his path, and for that had nobody by his side when he needed it the most.
Having played the game twice now getting each ending id super disagree. Maybe it's an extension of the good ending being locked behind needing to play like the mc has 40 IQ and sneaking through everything in the game making sure to never kill a single thing in the game even though they all want to kill you because that's naughty, but I couldn't care less when Artyom died. Miller on the other hand was hugely emotional his death had so much impact on the story and seeming he dies in both endings the only difference is what personality he leaves on. Good ending he thanks you calls you his son is happy his daughter and the crew have somewhere good to live and raise children now... Really fits his personality of being a great guy. Bad ending he just goes woooo we both dead who cares let the living deal with whatever problems they have now not our problem. That personality really stinks doesn't match the character he was in the metro games at all. I think the difference in the personality the game gives miller really highlights which is the good and bad ending artyom living is just like ok whatever look forward to the next metro if there is anymore where we need to let everyone try to kill us and never hurt them in return for another good ending because he is insane woo.
@@splinter360 That's not what being a spartan was about. Artyom's path has always been to save humanity, and he was (and is) capable of doing so. He becomes a monster when he strays from that.
what broke me was Anna saying she hates artyom and loves him so much at the same time. Their future severed just like that. They got to their dream place but at what cost? Just, goddammit man.... almost feel like the bad ending should not be a thing so that people can end the game on a good note. Just make one good canon ending that ties up a loose end and gives a hopeful future. Because this other one man... Anna would be broken for decades, if they even live that long.
Literaly finished it and a couple minutes ago and thought i got the bad ending because Miller died but i guess to save his daughters life he had to sacrifice his. I literally balled at Miller dying and im a grown man.
@@ceptspelmenis958 without a doubt glukovsky retired from the series and gave 4a games the ok with how they want to take series. I predict in future game itll be more expansive, perhaps settlement management as you begin to grow your new town. Perhaps setting up towns in the caspian sea, clear out the bunker, set up base in the volge to ultimately usher safe passage for the people in polis to all metro residents to migrate to newfoundland. Itll be sick
@@HeavyyyD I hope so. I spent hours looking for info about the future of Metro and couldn't find anything except some posts saying, that 4A won't be making new Metro game for PC platform and that Artyom's story is ended, however there was no source and I don't believe that shit. Metro is the game, that shows for all of the world, how today's games should look like, not only because it looks pretty, has amazing graphics, but the design, the passion, the story, characters, the small details. Those small walks on the train after every major chapter was soooo nice, it was my probably favorite part of the game, just go around, talk to characters, use radio for some additional information about what you have left behind and what is waiting for you in the next chapter. Even the small details as guitar and teddy bear that I found for little girl is in the train, it's not like "yea you found it, that's it", you can see how person that you have helped is grateful and happy. Shit I lost my ability to talk in english, I just finished the game and I'm sad.
@@ceptspelmenis958 I sure hope so. I know the lil dark one helped us big time during the institute mission. But I still would like another one where we would actually meet their whole race in person. After all, they did say "well meet again someday"
I lost my father two years ago and this game let me see what he could've been like if he grew old, it let me see my dad grow old, he and Miller were kinda alike. And seeing him die in the end took a piece of my soul, seeing him take my hand made me sob
@@faisalmutaqin5416 I'm sorry about your father, friend. I'm sure he's happy to know that you loved him and miss him still, cherish his memory, you'll be reunited sooner or later
Sorry for your loss... I lost my mother 2 years ago and initially I felt alright in a few days... But it's been 2 years and I am really starting to miss her and the fact that I won't be able to see her during my whole life which would be at least 30-40 years ( I am 22) scares me so much...
Yeah , i got the bad ending , that's suck. I legit thought that Duke and Damir had to necessarily die/stay back . The chapter for Alyhosa was FULL of people telling me to don't harm any of the local so i didn't and when i got the trophy for saving him something clicked in my mind , i then realized that i fucked up. Well , that is still a good game. I appreciated the last part that give a full throwback to old metro playstyle , alone in the metro and the escape from the gorilla. Also , my language got fully translated , hearing the gorilla " aaaah food , come here " in my language while shitting my pants was a majestic experience.
holy shit thats sad, i got the neutral one, which is the good but you dont get a trophy lol. i just couldnt pass the mission before the bridge without killing everyone, and acidentally i shot the child of the forest prisioner hahaha
Bit late but, i actually had Duke die on me, but i still got the good ending. As there are 3 members you can lose across the campaign: Duke, Damir and Alyosha i believe. Atleast 2 of those 3 need to survive to get the good ending.
Honestly didn't know these games had good and bad endings. Apparently I got the bad ending in Light, too. I was confused when Exodus started, lmao. No way I'm replaying this game and saving everyone. What a PITA.
I honestly never had a game make me cry and by that logic I thought none could make me cry. But this game is just so good and powerful. I was in tears during the whole driving scene until the credits. The music during the driving scene just multiplied its impact tenfold for me! Truly a masterpiece, we need to protect this series and 4A Games. We are lucky to have them.
To me I got the good ending and it almost didn't get me. I know it's a complete different game but Nier Automata got me good and Horizon Zero Dawn too...
In all honesty. Both endings were somber and sad. Whereas Miller dies, Artyom carries his weight and position, saves Anna and leads the Order into an unseen Future. In the ending where both die. They die a heroes death with honors, reverence and mourning. Both are good, because both are inherently bad endings. There are no happy endings in or after nuclear war. Just survivors who carry the sorrow.
That was my playstyle. I did shoot the thugs at the lighthouse as well as the ones that ambushed me from the ground while I was on the crane in Caspian as it was too far and too risky to go down. I killed a thug that was beating a slave a shot all the cannibals. I got the good ending.
metro games are so underrated, this is by far the best game of the series, from the driving scene with the added ost and when artyom shook miller to find out he passed on the passenger seat. Oh and yes that last bit where the whole Sparta crew rushed for you is gold, I really wish I had best bros like them. This ending couldn't be more perfect, I "almost cried"
naa man i we all cryed, we cryed like grown up babys, because its legitimate sad both endings (even tho the good ending its a swet and sad at the same time)
Hats down. Best single player fps game I've ever played. For anybody just starting this gold do it on hardcore. The immersion is unreal! I am 30 yrs old and I had rolled some tears a few times.
I played every other metro game on hardcore too. The ranger mode or iron mode (I believe if you die in the iron mode you have to start from the scratch because in Gears of War 4 that’s the case) are to fucked up for me. I’m the kind of gamer who hates it if the KI is dumb af but that doesn’t matter because they can kill you in an instant. In games like dark souls you need to be focused and patient but in games like metro it only tilts you because they make a „dumb“ ki but give her more damage and health and don’t make them „smarter“ or let them learn the way you play (like in middle earth shadow of war I think) to force you to be one step ahead and change your play style regularly.
8:45 i cried so much, seeing Miller pass away due to the lethal radiation just made me ball my eyes out, he sacrificed himself by giving the last green stuff serum to save Artyom knowing he knew his time was up and that he wanted Artyom to live to take care of his daughter Anna. Miller was like a father figure to me like my own grandpa when my grandpa was around when i was a kid, a grumpy old man but still had a heart and still cared. especially when Miller called Artyom his son.. Much respect to miller and I salute him as he passed away like a true hero/soldier.
They missed a perfect opportunity to put one of my favorite characters in the afterlife: Ulman. Seriously, they should have included him in this just for him to crack a witty joke and provide some insight on Artyom’s actions/death. It felt incomplete without him since he played a pretty significant role in Artyom’s journey
Yeah Ulman was my favorite character. I remember getting the bad ending in last light and then looking up the good ending and hearing he died im like nah nah nah that ones the bad ending
Finished the game a couple hours ago and was curious to see the bad ending. In the good ending which I was happy to get I started to cry not only after Miller died(yes I cried like the rest of you don’t deny it) but when everyone was hoping for you to stay alive and giving their blood to you. Duke and Alyosha’s little pick me ups really got me balling with how connected I was with everyone on the train. Metro series is the one of the greatest series of all time and Exodus is an absolute masterpiece to add onto the series.
@@maxsettingsnocompromises5724 no doubt, good ending will certainly be canon and what'll happen next is what Artyom mentions, putting the Order to use. They'll travel around on the train helping whoever they can.
This game is just art. I'd say personally it's been perfected carefully and executed perfectly too. Both endings are good in a specific sense, The bad ending is clearly worse but it's not awful. The game series is where I started, And now to find a Metro 2033 book lol.
One of the best games i have ever played. Loved this trilogy from the start and its one of the best storytelling and execution of how to get the atmosphere and immersion to the player. Definetely the most underrated game in history !
Totally agree on it being underrated the game ia literally woth no exaggeration the best story I have ever went through and I coukdnt have seen this masterpiece if it wasnt for the last light complete edition being free on steam two weeks ago. When I got into the series I was like bro where the hell was this game my whole life🤯
I came here cuz I just finished the game, although I got the "good" ending, they are both sad, nothing can ever come out good of an apocalypse. I came here to see if other people cried too, because I cried, and stayed really sad for hours, I felt like I had lost someone of my family, especially when Miller called me "son" and used his only injection so I could live, really made me cry the most. With the sad ending, Anna's speech really killed me inside. I've finished the game almost 8 hours ago and I can't get over it :'( Metro is so immersive I feel like my family and friends have died in real life...
I cried. I remember a quote from the first metro : "'The chaos of the tunnel was locked away behind the airlock gates. They seemed invulnerable...and at that moment, so did my comrades."
It really feels like the Dark Ones helped Artjom by guiding him with Visions. Also showing Millers thoughts.... that would explain the sudden Paranormal stuff and the Dark One appearing on the Roof before you enter.
@@level100boss3 The Gorilla's are partially (failed?) dark ones i believe. Artyoms psychic link only works with dark ones, and if the dark one specifically links artyoms mind with others. Artyom can hear the gorilla's thoughts as its hunting him. Although it can be explained away as hallucinations from radiation sickness, I don't honestly believe this is the case.
@Haruhi no that's probably the dark one you spot on top of the building psychically linking you to the thoughts of the gorillas. Remember how the little dark one did the same thing in Last Light? He probably was also the one who gave you all those visions throughout the last mission, helped Miller inexplicably find you, and kept you alive through that radiation that should've killed you a long time ago, hence why Katya didn't even understand how you were still alive
IMO i think Miller died by sacrifice his rad shot. Remember the kid said he had three. We saw anthoym take his but not millers. Miller injects Anthoym when he finds him.
@@sharoknain yes that last mission I had my lights off, heart racing just sprinting through trying to find the cure for anna because I thought the bad ending would be her dying.
Am I the only one who found it interesting that the Dark Ones weren’t seen at all in this game? Edit: I understand that I missed the little dark one on top of the institute but still, there was no interaction/conversation with the little dark one like in Last Light.
There is supposed to be DLC i wouldn't believe if they didn't add them in later for a mission. The good ending is a cliffhanger saying we might as well go help out making you think that we will see more to come. I also got the sad ending and was depressed for a while.
10:33 I literally started crying because no one did ever come up to me like a ,,hero” and hug me. Otherwise, no other game than this and Witcher 3 made me cry like crazy. I am so grateful for it.
This Is how you get the good ending - Don’t kill enemies that are wounded crying out in pain - Do the side missions (just in case) especially hostage involved activities - Don’t kill surrendering enemies -Don’t kill the enemies in certain areas (It’s hinted in the dialogue and clip board) I won’t go into details due to minor spoilers
I got the good ending, all you have to do is keep 3 certain people alive. Doing side quests and etc isn't needed but only in the the caspian does doing side quests help.
Yeah. I got the bad ending because during the forest part I was told not to kill a certain group of people even though they wanted to kill me. And I ended up sneaking around and killing them anyways instead of knocking them out. I also only freed 1 slave my whole play through and killed a few people who were surrendering to me. Now I’m going back for play through 2 to get the good ending. Plus I barely explored the points of interest. I just did main story quest.
I killed wounded enemies, I rescued hostages, kept key players alive and knocked out surrendering enemies. If you do enough good it'll outweigh the bad i supppose
I can't beieve the critics gave it an average score, saying the game is too "buggy". What a bunch of brainded dumbasses. I bet they spat on the game because they didn't get bribed. Vermins. This game has to be one of the best games ever produced, a cinematic masterpiece, a roller coaster of emotions, a captivating storyline, an ultra immersive game, and unbeatable atmosphere. Never has a game had suck an immersive and overwhelming atmosphere.
@@1yoan3 they gave it a pretty good score of 8/10 for the majority of critics? that's not average 5-6 is an average score. although i think it was overlooked by many people. i personally give it an 8/10 too. the cinematic parts are a little too much for me. like the bear cinematic part didn't flow too good imo. also some of the voice acting could have been better. though they did a phenomenal job with the world and atmosphere. the survival horror aspect was strong with this game. it was a little buggy but not like bethesda buggy. and my game kept crashing until i looked online for setting recommendations. then it got fixed for the most part. overall it was a great experience and it did push the bar a bit for an immersive post apocalyptic world
@@1yoan3 There were a lot of bugs in it though, you're giving this game WAY too much credit. The story was alright, but it ended too abruptly and was anti-climatic. The way some of the monsters behaved was fucking retarded too, it was so easy to kill them.
@@ninurak3543 Not as braindead as someone who replies to a 4 month old comment lol, the ending was anti-climatic as fuck and no one has persuaded me otherwise bud.
@Samurai Jacky i balled my eyes out in the end because i thought artyom was gonna die then i got the good ending and still cried because of millers death
The moment Anna was 1st coughing i was like, "She's gonna be sick, and i(Artyom) was gonna have to go on an suicide expedition. Someone is gonna die on the last mission, good or bad ending." Also, i gotten the good ending. Ran like crazy on the last mission and founded all the exits by luck. Artyom you lucky bastard.
I learned from the old games that you should not just kill everything you see. The game learn you if you just kill everything you no better then the enemy. When I got the good ending I was happy that I only killed when had to so ma man could live and it paid off.
Malte Sennewald You're a fucking idiot if you would call this short. YOu've clearly never played a Metro game before, or any single player FPS before. It's not the Witcher 3 you fucking moron. 30 hours is insanely long for a single player linear FPS
@@HugoStiglitz88 finishied it in less than 15 hours (1 sitting) with all quest but i woulnt say game is short previous game i played was shadow of tomb raider and that shit is short :D
My grandfather died 4 years ago. Then Metro came out a year later and it's just broke me. They just look act and sound almost the same both colonels too. I was happy to see him again but the ending just made me cry. I still cry everytime i see the ending. i miss you grandpa.
I got good as well, though to be fair I played the first metro and got the bad ending... which was the true ending?... then the good in last light so by the time I got to Exodus I knew how the game worked.
I want to get the bad ending but I don't want to kill anyone cause it has ripercussions like Duke dying or Anna telling you you could have played it better etc.
Just finished the game today. I had played all the metro games so far so I was already attached to some of the characters. But this was the best followed by last light and then the original. Everything about this game was amazing the visuals, the different game mechanics and especially the music. The realism of crafting, weapon customization and maintenance, the day cycle along with weather, different locations with different environments, the fine details to character development and minute details throughout the game. Developing relations with different people and how they come and go in life. The vehicles especially the railcar was so much fun. The Karma system to do good to others and getting replied in kind in the future. That ending made me cry though. Other game developers could definitely learn a lot from this series.
@@DrDemento456 That's the main highlight of the metro series- *scavenging for supplies* . Else it would be just as any other action game. In fact in metro last light there is one of the dlc where to get to play as a S.T..A.L.K.E.R or a person who goes to the surface to scavenge for items that others wouldn't. I'm happy that they removed that because if they had the currency it meant we had to go to a shop to discover new or special weapons or attachments or ammo. Whereas now we get to craft ammo, explore the map and find new weapons and different attachments for said weapons which adds a whole new aspect of realism to it.
One strongly disagree there. We are rating the game on a few things, length, gameplay, environment and story. Obviously in the first 2 respects id say it beats the first 2 games easily but with environment I really don't know. No doubts the areas in this game looked beautiful graphic wise but the series is called metro and something about going around in the open world just didn't do it for me. The maps also got gradually smaller with less to do. The first they packed alot of secrets and bonus objectives but in the dessert there was hardly anything to do and then the third map was just bad. It was a tiny map with hardly anywhere to go and literally no bonus objectives or nothing to explore at all. The best parts of this game ironically were probably the start and the last mission around the dead city and metro tunnels again. But even then the last part of the game was sooo boring. It was an extended sneak section avoiding a gorrila. That was the last part of this game. Rip any epic firefight or race to anywhere. Nope just sneak around an over sized monkey and game over. Will give it credit for one of the most immersive sections in the spider den when it forces your light off that was pretty incredible but the rest meh. Storywise too the 3rd game is by far the worst. Set out on a train journey to find a nice place to live but there are so many large skips with nothing explained so few interesting characters just all around so little impact and again I still stand by killing miller and they way he went out were just some of the worst story moments in gaming. Such a pathetic death for such a great character. The first game was so short so didn't really have a big story so hard to call it good or bad it was just meh but last light was an amazing story honestly. Also where the fuck are the dark ones? They left at the end of 2 and said we will see you again, they love radiation we got to the most radiated city yet and the dark ones aren't there? Such an easy and great story point to bring them back there but nothing. Again another point why 3 sucks just missed opportunities. If we wanna rate this game on everything and not just a post emotional ending to over rate the game like you did then the order from best to worst would be last light exodus 2033. And again the only reason 2033 is worst and no exodus is because it's pretty much a 5 hour game with hardly any content at all. By all rights exodus story was so bad that it deserves last.
@@slayerr4365 opinions can differ I experienced the game in different ways than you did. So expecting there to be a generalized yes or no doesn't seem fair. You mentioned that the desert was not that long and there wasn't much to do. It was very vast and there were a lot of things to do and lot of locations to visit. So either you didn't fully use the binoculars and map the area out very well or are just mistaken. On some of the points you mentioned I will agree. Like it being about metro buy there were not much tunnels and all. But you have to consider the story arch. This game series was not meant to be like far cry or assassins creed where they did the same thing over and over. The whole metro is based on the life in the metro and how though many challenges they made it out.there was the dark ones appearance inthe last level I think. I remember seeing something like the dark ones on the roof and then disappearing.
@@kkdias9924 Every "thing to do" was just a copy and paste bandit camp where you can go through them and you might get an accessory for one of your guns.. That or free slaves that give no dialogue or story after you do. I don't consider these good things in a game because there is zero entertainment to get from it apart from the tiny amount of scavenging and upgrading your weapons. But then in the end they really make that point worthless too because that random bandit camp you spent 15 minutes raiding and exploring and found a new gun? When you do the next story mission that same gun is just sitting right there on a table. So explore or not you get the exact same. I didn't follow the dev cycle of metro exodus but the game felt like it was rushed or they just go lazy the longer they go into the game. First zone was amazing was really loving it, so many different enemies different places to go alot of different side missions. Dessert map there was pretty much 3 or 4 enemies and that's it another mutant literally just coloured different copy and pasted side missions with no variety and a smaller map with 1/3 of it being dead sea. Then in the 3rd map we get to the worst by far first of all over 60% of the map was dead space you couldn't travel and there was literally almost zero side missions no where good to explore and no new enemies at all. Wolves are nothing new and the bear monster is legit a copy from metro last light they changed nothing... The third jungle map wasn't even open world it was extremely linear you had to go in a straight line because all other routes were blocked off by water or fences. Not to mention you are locked away from the train the entire map so there is no interaction with the crew it was just horrible. Then the final "map" wasn't really a map because was just linear progression but it was really solid for all the parts with miller and even then for a bit while we were alone it was great but when we got to the you have to sneak around the dark ones portion and that was the last thing in the game literally 30 minutes of sneaking around dark ones to collect some medicine and game over.. Just no. I always argue this. Liking games is opinion yes. But a game being objectively bad is a fact, and this game was bad if you break it down honestly. It has it's good points but most bad games have some good points. Doesn't redeem them. Especially metro is a story driven game it has no multiplayer so when the story is shit the game is a failure.
Absolute masterpiece! I haven't been more excited about game's ending ever!!! Glad to see that I was not the only one that put some tears on the final scenes with Miller. Man, it's so emotional at the end! What a brilliant game!
i was so attached to artyome and anna’s relationship. although i got the bad ending, i was hoping to find that medicine for anna i was literally driven to do whatever i could to get that for her. i played on hardest difficulty with no hud so it was hard but the drive to make anna better was strong. i love this series and i’m excited that they are continuing the series. after seeing the good ending i have a feeling the next game will be based off that. maybe going back to bring all the good people they can to their new home, helping anyone they can just like colonial said. solid 10/10 for me. so immersive so good. a masterpiece
Bad end its the best,i work in graveyard ,i wish i can dig a grave !!!Bad game ,overeated ,i have it played annd finished shortly i can ,i will never play again ,what of dissatisfaction .My rate for game 3 of 10.
I love that this game actually had real consequences to being good/bad, the good ending really feels emotional and fulfilling, it actually feels like all your hardship pays off etc whilst the bad ending actually feels painful and punishing. Great game series, Exodus was a terrific wrap up and I like the series waay better than the books! Characters are treated better and the ending is much nicer
Based on things i think he said in the game and in the novel he is a "reincarnation" of gengis khan (hope i wrote that correctly) and possibly the last reincarnation of him which could mean he can reincarnate but not 100% sure
He's like a Shaman/Monk, he teach me to don't hurt the spark ghosts, to save the Dark Ones, to avoid the savage creatures, he can go to special places were he can change the destiny, so he can go to other worlds
Khan is one of the best character of this saga, so interesting to have him around, to listen him talking and his views of the post-apocaliptic world and of the metro are extremely compelling!
@@Duck-ou3qy hellyeah, with bourbon we were first time outside in moscow and when i first played it in 2011, i was 14 and i was scared to hell when we split and so happy when i found him again :D was nice to see him again in exodus
@4:30 tell me who cried when they saw Miller tilted over like that or @3:00 when Miller actually called Artyom "son" while being concerned and giving him the last of the anti Rad shot. (heart string pulls man).
@@VBMslayqueen I mean it wasn't that hard to get the good ending compared to 2033 or last light. Just listen to the characters talking and telling you what to do and look at the subtitle ques of who is talking. If it's a tribesman don't kill if it's a bandit go guns blazing.
I may be the only one but I feel they need to give Artyom an in game voice now where he actually talks and have to make choices. It goes against all the past games but now he’s the commander. He has to talk and make decisions
actually u hear artyoms voice through the entire game, for example, when u are in the loading screen and there is a text on the left talking about the story(they are mainly cut-outs of the dialogues of the storyline), artyom will be the one reading them.
@@MrSn4rk Well he is the strong, silent type. But I agree the next game with Artyom as commander of the Order, he probably needs a voice in-game for it to work.
It pisses me off cause in a couple of scenes some characters are LITERALLY calling him out on the damn radio but he never says ANYTHING to have them make sure that he's okay.
I expected little more of content from Taiga and Novosibirsk. I thought it would be similar as Volga and Caspian Sea regions. You know little question marks so I can go there and investigate.
Baklly there were question marks on Taiga, you just had to find them, though they’re mostly just the nests and dens and obviously there’s less than in the 2 main open levels because the map is way smaller and more linear. Personally I like the levels the way they are and the length of the game is great. They’re even improving.
@@Vox_Popul1 Maybe I was there. I do not mean it exactly in bad way. I would just love to spend more time in those areas to do stuff. And yeah Taiga is much smaller then previous regions. But I must say, when I crossed the bridge during night and all those fucking wolves were roaming around, I was scared.
A legit 4th game scenario could be something like this: - The survivors create a new base/city in that Baikal lake place, and build up defences to protect themselves from bandits and mutants. - At the same time, Artyum must go on missions from all around Russia to save/recruit people and solve problems such as lack of supplies to survive.. - In the game you will visit back The Forest for Olga and the tree kids, the desert slaves Ghul and back to Moscow for the people from Metro. - Back in Moscow you will be forced to fight against Hanza, Red Line, 4th Reich, Bandits, Mutants etc... So there would be more RPG/RTS elements such as in FrostPunk game to manage the colony in a First Person perspective, with open world maps.. with tough decisions to make, with also different endings.. that would be a decent METRO 4 game I would say..
@@eliot5716 as one who spent 20+ hours building settlements yea it was bad,but if you can upgrade it,it would be better.i prefer falllouts building mechanics more than minecraft type'o crap
No, it's bad idea. Can't we just let artyom rest? He fought enough in both games and books he should be finally left alone. The sad thing is that in books he was fucked 1000x more than in games
This is exactly what I want too, kinda like metro version fallout 4, but man, it’s hard to imagine how much such a development would cost / what company can do that lul
@@alifaiman1851 me around 21 hours bcause i prefer exploring first before doing a main quest. And goddamn i got bad ending, gonna try a 2nd play to get a good ending
Developers often underestimate the gaming prowess of a dedicated player. It's not surprising at all when someone can take a 30hr campaign game and finish it in a day.
Itsme M yeah and you can very much compare these games just because they are not alike doesnt you necessarily compare the story telling Bethesda is ass when it comes to story telling SOMETIMES
I'm happy for how things turned out in the good ending, even if it is sad. There is something in Colonel Miller's monologue at the end that just makes me have a huge respect for him. He accepts his fate with dignity and passes the command to Artyom. Also, that line: "I like it here, I would want to stay here forever. Can you arrange that for me?", made me burst into laughter. Besides, in the last scene, Artyom finally speaks to his peers!
Well, sort-of. Miller drops him off at the station with the post-card of where his wife goes to by the ocean. I think he just gets left alone at the station to forever just look at a postcard where his family went without him.
@YouDon'tHaveToKnow No, Artyom gets left at a foreign train station, alone, with a postcard to contemplate his dream he'll never catch, reminding him of his widowed wife's eternal mourne and sorrow, and this for all of eternity... Artyom's situation is so depressing the more you think of it.
Oh, so it's literally how much people you save. That is... Interesting. You do achieve your goal either way, but in the bad one there are barely any people to save. Very interesting!
I really think it was a bad way to end a game. I think it was it's biggest flaw. Especially how it was not one single decision in the end to make your ending good or bad, it happened all though out the game where your decision would not affect the outcome of if you were to live or not. After waiting over 5 years to play another game, I get the bad ending because of "mistakes" I made? I bought you game and played in my preferred style and you essentially punish me for it?
@@mepp7573 i bought the game too and i got the good ending. if your "playstyle" is just shooting everyone and not listening to people then you cant really complain about the ending you got. getting the good ending is easy
@@rizey542 I only recall shooting one slave by accident, and I didn't just shoot everyone. It's a pretty big slap in the face by 4A to even have a "bad ending." After reading all the books and waiting over 5 YEARS, yes, it is a huge slap in the face to me.
@Munser just like last light. its just bad game design. I got the bad ending Because killing cannibal bandits, commies and nazis who kill women and children is a "BAD CHOICE".

Ik i got the bad ending first that shit hurt
Never have i ever in my life felt this much respect to a fictional game character as i felt for Colonel Miller. The Old man was with us from the start in Metro 2033. Found D6 together, then he got busy in last light as the Commander of D6 but does come at the end to defend it. And now finally in Exodus he went on his final mission with Artyom and died like a Hero. I salute you Colonel.
I’m not gonna like just for the respect of having 69 likes
hell yeah bro he died as a soldier/hero and i give him high respect, i felt close to him like he was my own grandpa, may have been a grumpy old man but he still had that caring father figure in him since he wanted to protect his people and his most prized possession his one and only daughter Anna. I salute to him to.
Miller: If not us then who!!
Well.. not from the start of metro 2033 but yeah
to be fair...there is that little dark stain of having driven his wife to suicide...nobody is perfect i guess. but he went out the right way.
So Captain Miller not only found the map, but finds artyom, goes back to find the kid, saves him from mutated beasts, carries him to the truck as well and drives us half way to the train. He is truly a legend, the real protagonist of the game. Salute.
Well he is a stubborn one like artom o7
COLONEL Miller. Get it right, trooper! And Both Miller and Artyom have been doing protagonist shenanigans for a long time. Miller's just been at it a lot longer than Artyom. He was a soldier when the bombs fell and raised the Spartan Order from the ground up, alongside raising his only daughter, earned the respect of his troops and the people of the Metro and got a cool personalized Railgun that nobody else had. It sounds like things a main character in an RPG achieves. He's had a life just as storied as Artyom's, and in the good ending Artyom has the chance to bring his own life even further than Miller's.
What did I have to do to get the good ending? By the way, I like the end of Artyom and Miller's sacrifice to save Anna. Sad but great
@@mohammedtemimi1980 From Damir, Duke, and Alyosha, you need at least 2 out of the 3 of them to be present and willing to give Artyom blood at the end. This is determined by your moral points in each chapter. Duke survives the Bridge Escape if you've been kind to the cult, saved their people from Bandits, and avoided killing them so they're willing to hold fire. Damir stays if you've done many things to help the tribal slaves in the Caspian Sea so he feels indebted to you and doesn't feel the need to stay to help his people. Alyosha must leave the Taiga on good terms with Olga and the forest children, so Artyom must avoid bloodshed with them whenever he can. If you fail the moral check he will be crippled and hold a grudge against Artyom for hurting Olga and the Forest children.
Also saves Artyom with HIS "green stuff" dose that could've save himself.. but decided to save Artyom instead
The music that plays when driving back to the train with Miller is amazing.

On the good ending, what really got me was when Miller finds you dying, and you see he is seriously sick as well and he uses his only serum on you, as he calls you son :’).

Patchwork I think with Alyosha you can’t kill the Pirates after the girl said not to kill them. When she told me not to kill them I did it anyways and Alyosha got shot at the end of the mission.
I'll be honest, would love to see a DLC about Millers and Artyom's adventures on the eternal train.
I think it could. It wasn't too long they finally added the Sam DLC. This one could be sort of a Co-op survival game mode where you play different maps and try to survive with friends as much as you can against endless hordes of mutants.
Metro Eternal
XxGR3YW01FxX also adding multiplayer to a single player game is a bad idea in my opinion. Firstly it would be hard to implement, secondly, how would that even work?
From my personal experience, multiplayer always ruins immersion. So I hope to God for Metro to never have multiplayer or even coop for that matter.
@dirtbike riders that wasn't purely the reason why people hated it but yeahh it was one of the reasons
I literally finished this gem of a game today. Throughout the game, I was worried about Anna dying but I failed to even consider that Miller would make the ultimate sacrifice so that both Artyom and Anna can live the life that they deserve. This final music and that ending sequence in general brought me to tears. Seeing our crew rush in to aid Artyom gave me all kinds of chills. And that ending scene where every crew member sits by our bedside either worried sick or giving blood while we talk to Miller in the afterlife and bid him farewell just brought a rush of emotions. It was all executed splendidly to say the least.
Artyom is a hero. Miller is a legend!
Honestly when I finished the game I nearly cried since miller has been there in the 3 metro games, miller was a great character and the sad part was he even called Artyom son.
I knew Miller will die, I think I played too many games and watched too many movies.
The game needed one more chapter IMO.
I just finished it and I was the same exact way. Such a good game.
This is why we put so many hours into these games. The characters become real and you develop feelings for them. It's sad to see the credit rolls because when that happens you are taking one last look at your friends and saying goodbye. I like to replay certain games just to see my friends one more time.
When you get the best ending first try without game guides
Not a rocket science I only ever played blind ranger hard core and never got bad ending in any metro series however I did fuck up in bioshock 2 by harvesting those girls teeth what a monster I was
@that guy you never need that in exodus. Conversation moral points are in last light also you never ever need to skip fighting bad guys in any games it does not take away moral points. But if you shoot benevolent factions or kids of animals you get a penalty pretty straight forward tbh
@that guy that is not true tho in last light you get good ending if u spare bear cubs watchamn pup dragons pup on the roof if you listen to convos and spear commie guy . otherwise you can full kill wild life and other enemy soldiers that are not key story npc and you get good ending. i never got bad ending and i am pretty blood thirsty i just let go of full killing main npcs if they have understandable motivations.

just replay the "VOLGA" mission and noticed DUKE say "...you and i have the same blood type you know that?Hahahaha"
Saddly that mission spoiled the end so hard. Because whether you get the good or bad ending you will wonder : so duke can either survive or die. So how could that affect the ending ? Oh right he mentioned something about blood types .
@@Jeffro2510 how did it spoil it I had no idea blood type was going to play a part in the end...?
@@Jeffro2510 It didn't. In the book the Spartans were paired on their bloodtype so that if one goes down in the field the transfusion is always available. Duke's comments were a throwback to that.
Well, to be fair, Artyom is AB+, which makes him a universal recipient. He can take blood from any type. And if Duke had the same blood type, he could as well.
It foreshadowed it. "Spartan blood" the whole crew must have had the same blood for such reasons.
Just finished around 10 minutes ago with the good ending. I think the finale was the most intense yet most calm sequence I have ever had the pleasure of playing. There was no epic firefight and giant monster, just you fighting against your worst enemy: the environment, reminding you what the real horror in the post-apocalypse is. No game has ever made me so emotionally invested in its supporting characters and have an ending sequence that made me feel so many emotions at once before.
one of the only games making me feel the feels this much like the metro was GTA V i mean that game had such a great ending and you connected with the characters so well. also witcher 3 loved that game too
That's it! I saw people complaining that the game has no big fights or a main antagonist, but the real threat is there all the time, as you said, it's the environment! Metro was always about the atmosphere, the moral, and not big fights and bosses. This game is pure art, it's a gem when it comes to story driven shooters, I think it's the best I've played ever.

was telling about how Miller fought the exact same mutants Artuom fought in this level, rat creatures, giant worms ect while carrying him on his back. To think that old man went through the same hell in this chapter.

That "bad ending" hits different. Its much more powerful and emotional. The 3 gun salute had me in tears
The 3 gun salute is so sad, knowing that Artyom let his friends down and allowed people to die. Turned into a monster who butchered everyone in his path, and for that had nobody by his side when he needed it the most.
Having played the game twice now getting each ending id super disagree. Maybe it's an extension of the good ending being locked behind needing to play like the mc has 40 IQ and sneaking through everything in the game making sure to never kill a single thing in the game even though they all want to kill you because that's naughty, but I couldn't care less when Artyom died. Miller on the other hand was hugely emotional his death had so much impact on the story and seeming he dies in both endings the only difference is what personality he leaves on.
Good ending he thanks you calls you his son is happy his daughter and the crew have somewhere good to live and raise children now... Really fits his personality of being a great guy.
Bad ending he just goes woooo we both dead who cares let the living deal with whatever problems they have now not our problem. That personality really stinks doesn't match the character he was in the metro games at all.
I think the difference in the personality the game gives miller really highlights which is the good and bad ending artyom living is just like ok whatever look forward to the next metro if there is anymore where we need to let everyone try to kill us and never hurt them in return for another good ending because he is insane woo.
@@robloxpwnr7604Not really turning into a monster. Just killing all those who tried to kill you and the crew.

I spent hours looking for info about the future of Metro and couldn't find anything except some posts saying, that 4A won't be making new Metro game for PC platform and that Artyom's story is ended, however there was no source and I don't believe that shit. Metro is the game, that shows for all of the world, how today's games should look like, not only because it looks pretty, has amazing graphics, but the design, the passion, the story, characters, the small details. Those small walks on the train after every major chapter was soooo nice, it was my probably favorite part of the game, just go around, talk to characters, use radio for some additional information about what you have left behind and what is waiting for you in the next chapter. Even the small details as guitar and teddy bear that I found for little girl is in the train, it's not like "yea you found it, that's it", you can see how person that you have helped is grateful and happy.
Shit I lost my ability to talk in english, I just finished the game and I'm sad.
@@ceptspelmenis958 I sure hope so.
I know the lil dark one helped us big time during the institute mission.
But I still would like another one where we would actually meet their whole race in person.
After all, they did say "well meet again someday"
I hope they fucking bury this shit series

I lost my father two years ago and this game let me see what he could've been like if he grew old, it let me see my dad grow old, he and Miller were kinda alike. And seeing him die in the end took a piece of my soul, seeing him take my hand made me sob
I'm sorry my friend.
Stay strong and keep him always by your heart.
@@jones7590 i will, thanks fren
Thats what i felt tho man, my father was passed away on 25 February on this year.. And Miller's gone was bring my memory about my father..
@@faisalmutaqin5416 I'm sorry about your father, friend. I'm sure he's happy to know that you loved him and miss him still, cherish his memory, you'll be reunited sooner or later
Sorry for your loss... I lost my mother 2 years ago and initially I felt alright in a few days... But it's been 2 years and I am really starting to miss her and the fact that I won't be able to see her during my whole life which would be at least 30-40 years ( I am 22) scares me so much...
Yeah , i got the bad ending , that's suck.
I legit thought that Duke and Damir had to necessarily die/stay back . The chapter for Alyhosa was FULL of people telling me to don't harm any of the local so i didn't and when i got the trophy for saving him something clicked in my mind , i then realized that i fucked up. Well , that is still a good game. I appreciated the last part that give a full throwback to old metro playstyle , alone in the metro and the escape from the gorilla.
Also , my language got fully translated , hearing the gorilla " aaaah food , come here " in my language while shitting my pants was a majestic experience.
holy shit thats sad, i got the neutral one, which is the good but you dont get a trophy lol. i just couldnt pass the mission before the bridge without killing everyone, and acidentally i shot the child of the forest prisioner hahaha
The blind gorilla says this stuff in Russian?
Bit late but, i actually had Duke die on me, but i still got the good ending. As there are 3 members you can lose across the campaign: Duke, Damir and Alyosha i believe. Atleast 2 of those 3 need to survive to get the good ending.
same
Honestly didn't know these games had good and bad endings. Apparently I got the bad ending in Light, too. I was confused when Exodus started, lmao. No way I'm replaying this game and saving everyone. What a PITA.
I honestly never had a game make me cry and by that logic I thought none could make me cry. But this game is just so good and powerful. I was in tears during the whole driving scene until the credits. The music during the driving scene just multiplied its impact tenfold for me! Truly a masterpiece, we need to protect this series and 4A Games. We are lucky to have them.
To me I got the good ending and it almost didn't get me. I know it's a complete different game but Nier Automata got me good and Horizon Zero Dawn too...
advise u to play the witcher 3 if u didn't
True
You have to play red dead redemption 2 bro
hannibal barca I did but it honestly got kinda boring. It’s just not my kind of game, tho.
In all honesty.
Both endings were somber and sad.
Whereas Miller dies, Artyom carries his weight and position, saves Anna and leads the Order into an unseen Future.
In the ending where both die.
They die a heroes death with honors, reverence and mourning.
Both are good, because both are inherently bad endings.
There are no happy endings in or after nuclear war.
Just survivors who carry the sorrow.
deep
beautiful.
I think both endings are good, for the same reason. It's all how you percieve.
The good ending was sad too, but it doesn't leave you feeling shitty.
I guess
Stealthed my way through, knocking out only and being very patient - result was a good ending and it was well worth it. “If not us, then who!”
i shot everyone and got the good ending lol
That was my playstyle. I did shoot the thugs at the lighthouse as well as the ones that ambushed me from the ground while I was on the crane in Caspian as it was too far and too risky to go down.
I killed a thug that was beating a slave a shot all the cannibals. I got the good ending.
I literally did sum war crimes playing this game soooo yaaaaa..........
Bad ending
@@nun_f_ur_bznz5074 Me too
metro games are so underrated, this is by far the best game of the series, from the driving scene with the added ost and when artyom shook miller to find out he passed on the passenger seat. Oh and yes that last bit where the whole Sparta crew rushed for you is gold, I really wish I had best bros like them. This ending couldn't be more perfect, I "almost cried"
naa man i we all cryed, we cryed like grown up babys, because its legitimate sad both endings (even tho the good ending its a swet and sad at the same time)
i had teary eyes lol, not enough to cry tho. I held back like a lot
It would of been better if we had the final cut seen in first person why bother taking away Artyoms voice if we get to see him anyway ruins it for me
Ist play thru. Not good ending.. i did kill everyone.. and/or died trying.. great game exp. 1 of a kind now on to shadows die twice!
One of the best damn endings in the gaming industry. I did get the good ending and got a bit sentimental there.
Hats down. Best single player fps game I've ever played. For anybody just starting this gold do it on hardcore. The immersion is unreal! I am 30 yrs old and I had rolled some tears a few times.
dragomir slavov I personally liked Prey way more than this game.
Yeah, hardcore is the way to go, perfect balance.
I played every other metro game on hardcore too. The ranger mode or iron mode (I believe if you die in the iron mode you have to start from the scratch because in Gears of War 4 that’s the case) are to fucked up for me. I’m the kind of gamer who hates it if the KI is dumb af but that doesn’t matter because they can kill you in an instant. In games like dark souls you need to be focused and patient but in games like metro it only tilts you because they make a „dumb“ ki but give her more damage and health and don’t make them „smarter“ or let them learn the way you play (like in middle earth shadow of war I think) to force you to be one step ahead and change your play style regularly.
this and Dishonored. Both solid fps games with immersive settings.
and I was thinking the good ending was the bad one. now when I see the bad one holy shit, that's terrible and even more depressing.
that's true
8:45 i cried so much, seeing Miller pass away due to the lethal radiation just made me ball my eyes out, he sacrificed himself by giving the last green stuff serum to save Artyom knowing he knew his time was up and that he wanted Artyom to live to take care of his daughter Anna. Miller was like a father figure to me like my own grandpa when my grandpa was around when i was a kid, a grumpy old man but still had a heart and still cared. especially when Miller called Artyom his son.. Much respect to miller and I salute him as he passed away like a true hero/soldier.
They missed a perfect opportunity to put one of my favorite characters in the afterlife: Ulman. Seriously, they should have included him in this just for him to crack a witty joke and provide some insight on Artyom’s actions/death. It felt incomplete without him since he played a pretty significant role in Artyom’s journey

@@jayho3341 No, i't said pretty clearly that ulamn died at D6 in the credits

Yeah Ulman was my favorite character. I remember getting the bad ending in last light and then looking up the good ending and hearing he died im like nah nah nah that ones the bad ending
Finished the game a couple hours ago and was curious to see the bad ending. In the good ending which I was happy to get I started to cry not only after Miller died(yes I cried like the rest of you don’t deny it) but when everyone was hoping for you to stay alive and giving their blood to you. Duke and Alyosha’s little pick me ups really got me balling with how connected I was with everyone on the train. Metro series is the one of the greatest series of all time and Exodus is an absolute masterpiece to add onto the series.
I really hope they make more games in the series
@@maxsettingsnocompromises5724 no doubt, good ending will certainly be canon and what'll happen next is what Artyom mentions, putting the Order to use. They'll travel around on the train helping whoever they can.
@@maxsettingsnocompromises5724 me too I really hope they have some ideas to move forward with the series
This game is just art. I'd say personally it's been perfected carefully and executed perfectly too. Both endings are good in a specific sense, The bad ending is clearly worse but it's not awful. The game series is where I started, And now to find a Metro 2033 book lol.
I cried when I saw the train with the snow plough. It was a very striking moment with the music

One of the best games i have ever played. Loved this trilogy from the start and its one of the best storytelling and execution of how to get the atmosphere and immersion to the player.
Definetely the most underrated game in history !
Totally agree on it being underrated the game ia literally woth no exaggeration the best story I have ever went through and I coukdnt have seen this masterpiece if it wasnt for the last light complete edition being free on steam two weeks ago. When I got into the series I was like bro where the hell was this game my whole life🤯
I came here cuz I just finished the game, although I got the "good" ending, they are both sad, nothing can ever come out good of an apocalypse.
I came here to see if other people cried too, because I cried, and stayed really sad for hours, I felt like I had lost someone of my family, especially when Miller called me "son" and used his only injection so I could live, really made me cry the most.
With the sad ending, Anna's speech really killed me inside.
I've finished the game almost 8 hours ago and I can't get over it :'(
Metro is so immersive I feel like my family and friends have died in real life...
I cried. I remember a quote from the first metro :
"'The chaos of the tunnel was locked away behind the airlock gates. They seemed invulnerable...and at that moment, so did my comrades."
I just finished a game last night and cried for 15 min too pal

Kirill thinking that Miller just fell asleep while teaching him how to drive was heartbreaking. Poor kid.
It really feels like the Dark Ones helped Artjom by guiding him with Visions. Also showing Millers thoughts.... that would explain the sudden Paranormal stuff and the Dark One appearing on the Roof before you enter.
I wouldn't be surprised if that Novisibirsk is the Dark Ones new home
You can actually spot a dark one in the level no joke
I saw a figure on the building wasn't sure if it was a dark one @@level100boss3
@@level100boss3 The Gorilla's are partially (failed?) dark ones i believe.
Artyoms psychic link only works with dark ones, and if the dark one specifically links artyoms mind with others.
Artyom can hear the gorilla's thoughts as its hunting him. Although it can be explained away as hallucinations from radiation sickness, I don't honestly believe this is the case.
@Haruhi no that's probably the dark one you spot on top of the building psychically linking you to the thoughts of the gorillas. Remember how the little dark one did the same thing in Last Light? He probably was also the one who gave you all those visions throughout the last mission, helped Miller inexplicably find you, and kept you alive through that radiation that should've killed you a long time ago, hence why Katya didn't even understand how you were still alive
Miller died because of your bad driving
He was already dead as you woke up.
But i only crashed like twice... ok look... maybe like 3 or 10 more times but still.

This Is how you get the good ending
- Don’t kill enemies that are wounded crying out in pain
- Do the side missions (just in case) especially hostage involved activities
- Don’t kill surrendering enemies
-Don’t kill the enemies in certain areas (It’s hinted in the dialogue and clip board) I won’t go into details due to minor spoilers
I got the good ending, all you have to do is keep 3 certain people alive. Doing side quests and etc isn't needed but only in the the caspian does doing side quests help.
Yeah. I got the bad ending because during the forest part I was told not to kill a certain group of people even though they wanted to kill me. And I ended up sneaking around and killing them anyways instead of knocking them out. I also only freed 1 slave my whole play through and killed a few people who were surrendering to me. Now I’m going back for play through 2 to get the good ending. Plus I barely explored the points of interest. I just did main story quest.
Don’t kill enemies that are wounded crying out in pain - this is shit :D
I killed wounded enemies, I rescued hostages, kept key players alive and knocked out surrendering enemies. If you do enough good it'll outweigh the bad i supppose

@@1yoan3 Well said !
@@1yoan3 they gave it a pretty good score of 8/10 for the majority of critics? that's not average 5-6 is an average score. although i think it was overlooked by many people. i personally give it an 8/10 too. the cinematic parts are a little too much for me. like the bear cinematic part didn't flow too good imo. also some of the voice acting could have been better. though they did a phenomenal job with the world and atmosphere. the survival horror aspect was strong with this game. it was a little buggy but not like bethesda buggy. and my game kept crashing until i looked online for setting recommendations. then it got fixed for the most part. overall it was a great experience and it did push the bar a bit for an immersive post apocalyptic world
@@1yoan3 There were a lot of bugs in it though, you're giving this game WAY too much credit. The story was alright, but it ended too abruptly and was anti-climatic. The way some of the monsters behaved was fucking retarded too, it was so easy to kill them.

The moment Anna was 1st coughing i was like, "She's gonna be sick, and i(Artyom) was gonna have to go on an suicide expedition. Someone is gonna die on the last mission, good or bad ending."
Also, i gotten the good ending. Ran like crazy on the last mission and founded all the exits by luck. Artyom you lucky bastard.
I learned from the old games that you should not just kill everything you see. The game learn you if you just kill everything you no better then the enemy. When I got the good ending I was happy that I only killed when had to so ma man could live and it paid off.

I want to get the bad ending but I don't want to kill anyone cause it has ripercussions like Duke dying or Anna telling you you could have played it better etc.
The scene is perfect , technical and emotional wize ... i wish more games had such attention to detail !
Just finished the game today. I had played all the metro games so far so I was already attached to some of the characters. But this was the best followed by last light and then the original. Everything about this game was amazing the visuals, the different game mechanics and especially the music. The realism of crafting, weapon customization and maintenance, the day cycle along with weather, different locations with different environments, the fine details to character development and minute details throughout the game. Developing relations with different people and how they come and go in life. The vehicles especially the railcar was so much fun. The Karma system to do good to others and getting replied in kind in the future.
That ending made me cry though.
Other game developers could definitely learn a lot from this series.
My only complaint was they got rid of the bullet currency if it had that instead of finding ammo everywhere the game would be gold
@@DrDemento456 That's the main highlight of the metro series- *scavenging for supplies* . Else it would be just as any other action game. In fact in metro last light there is one of the dlc where to get to play as a S.T..A.L.K.E.R or a person who goes to the surface to scavenge for items that others wouldn't. I'm happy that they removed that because if they had the currency it meant we had to go to a shop to discover new or special weapons or attachments or ammo. Whereas now we get to craft ammo, explore the map and find new weapons and different attachments for said weapons which adds a whole new aspect of realism to it.
One strongly disagree there. We are rating the game on a few things, length, gameplay, environment and story. Obviously in the first 2 respects id say it beats the first 2 games easily but with environment I really don't know. No doubts the areas in this game looked beautiful graphic wise but the series is called metro and something about going around in the open world just didn't do it for me. The maps also got gradually smaller with less to do. The first they packed alot of secrets and bonus objectives but in the dessert there was hardly anything to do and then the third map was just bad. It was a tiny map with hardly anywhere to go and literally no bonus objectives or nothing to explore at all. The best parts of this game ironically were probably the start and the last mission around the dead city and metro tunnels again. But even then the last part of the game was sooo boring. It was an extended sneak section avoiding a gorrila. That was the last part of this game. Rip any epic firefight or race to anywhere. Nope just sneak around an over sized monkey and game over. Will give it credit for one of the most immersive sections in the spider den when it forces your light off that was pretty incredible but the rest meh.
Storywise too the 3rd game is by far the worst. Set out on a train journey to find a nice place to live but there are so many large skips with nothing explained so few interesting characters just all around so little impact and again I still stand by killing miller and they way he went out were just some of the worst story moments in gaming. Such a pathetic death for such a great character. The first game was so short so didn't really have a big story so hard to call it good or bad it was just meh but last light was an amazing story honestly. Also where the fuck are the dark ones? They left at the end of 2 and said we will see you again, they love radiation we got to the most radiated city yet and the dark ones aren't there? Such an easy and great story point to bring them back there but nothing. Again another point why 3 sucks just missed opportunities.
If we wanna rate this game on everything and not just a post emotional ending to over rate the game like you did then the order from best to worst would be last light exodus 2033. And again the only reason 2033 is worst and no exodus is because it's pretty much a 5 hour game with hardly any content at all. By all rights exodus story was so bad that it deserves last.
@@slayerr4365 opinions can differ I experienced the game in different ways than you did. So expecting there to be a generalized yes or no doesn't seem fair. You mentioned that the desert was not that long and there wasn't much to do. It was very vast and there were a lot of things to do and lot of locations to visit. So either you didn't fully use the binoculars and map the area out very well or are just mistaken. On some of the points you mentioned I will agree. Like it being about metro buy there were not much tunnels and all. But you have to consider the story arch. This game series was not meant to be like far cry or assassins creed where they did the same thing over and over. The whole metro is based on the life in the metro and how though many challenges they made it out.there was the dark ones appearance inthe last level I think. I remember seeing something like the dark ones on the roof and then disappearing.
@@kkdias9924 Every "thing to do" was just a copy and paste bandit camp where you can go through them and you might get an accessory for one of your guns.. That or free slaves that give no dialogue or story after you do. I don't consider these good things in a game because there is zero entertainment to get from it apart from the tiny amount of scavenging and upgrading your weapons. But then in the end they really make that point worthless too because that random bandit camp you spent 15 minutes raiding and exploring and found a new gun? When you do the next story mission that same gun is just sitting right there on a table. So explore or not you get the exact same.
I didn't follow the dev cycle of metro exodus but the game felt like it was rushed or they just go lazy the longer they go into the game. First zone was amazing was really loving it, so many different enemies different places to go alot of different side missions. Dessert map there was pretty much 3 or 4 enemies and that's it another mutant literally just coloured different copy and pasted side missions with no variety and a smaller map with 1/3 of it being dead sea. Then in the 3rd map we get to the worst by far first of all over 60% of the map was dead space you couldn't travel and there was literally almost zero side missions no where good to explore and no new enemies at all. Wolves are nothing new and the bear monster is legit a copy from metro last light they changed nothing... The third jungle map wasn't even open world it was extremely linear you had to go in a straight line because all other routes were blocked off by water or fences. Not to mention you are locked away from the train the entire map so there is no interaction with the crew it was just horrible.
Then the final "map" wasn't really a map because was just linear progression but it was really solid for all the parts with miller and even then for a bit while we were alone it was great but when we got to the you have to sneak around the dark ones portion and that was the last thing in the game literally 30 minutes of sneaking around dark ones to collect some medicine and game over.. Just no.
I always argue this. Liking games is opinion yes. But a game being objectively bad is a fact, and this game was bad if you break it down honestly. It has it's good points but most bad games have some good points. Doesn't redeem them. Especially metro is a story driven game it has no multiplayer so when the story is shit the game is a failure.
The ending hit me too hard.last time i was this devastated was at metro last light these guys surely know how to develop characters and stories .
Absolute masterpiece! I haven't been more excited about game's ending ever!!! Glad to see that I was not the only one that put some tears on the final scenes with Miller. Man, it's so emotional at the end! What a brilliant game!
i was so attached to artyome and anna’s relationship. although i got the bad ending, i was hoping to find that medicine for anna i was literally driven to do whatever i could to get that for her. i played on hardest difficulty with no hud so it was hard but the drive to make anna better was strong. i love this series and i’m excited that they are continuing the series. after seeing the good ending i have a feeling the next game will be based off that. maybe going back to bring all the good people they can to their new home, helping anyone they can just like colonial said. solid 10/10 for me. so immersive so good. a masterpiece
damn dude that bad ending is dark af! lol
Bad end its the best,i work in graveyard ,i wish i can dig a grave !!!Bad game ,overeated ,i have it played annd finished shortly i can ,i will never play again ,what of dissatisfaction .My rate for game 3 of 10.
If your going to write something make sure people can read it.
@@silvestarhergotic4738 no u suck and killed everyone
@@silvestarhergotic4738 Why you meanie! Why say bad game!!!!! You Poopyhead!!!!!
kid: says he can't drive
Me: Hold my beer kid
Kid: I can't drive!
Artyom: hold my radiation poisoning.
No hold my vodka
Ok the bad ending hit me harder than I thought I'm balling my eyes out makes me not want the bad ending
Same bro
Yeah that man never gave us that AK he promised though
@@DogribSpectre Well, he actually left his backpack with one in the vents as i remember correctly
@StreaksLP no bourbon shot that other guy at the end of the mission and then Khan made you leave before you could pick up the AK
I got the bad ending and almost cried. Then i came here to see what i missed out on
I love that this game actually had real consequences to being good/bad, the good ending really feels emotional and fulfilling, it actually feels like all your hardship pays off etc whilst the bad ending actually feels painful and punishing. Great game series, Exodus was a terrific wrap up and I like the series waay better than the books! Characters are treated better and the ending is much nicer
wait so
Khan can go to the 'afterlife' and back
ok Khan who are you and how did you get this power
Based on things i think he said in the game and in the novel he is a "reincarnation" of gengis khan (hope i wrote that correctly) and possibly the last reincarnation of him which could mean he can reincarnate but not 100% sure
He's like a Shaman/Monk, he teach me to don't hurt the spark ghosts, to save the Dark Ones, to avoid the savage creatures, he can go to special places were he can change the destiny, so he can go to other worlds
Khan is one of the best character of this saga, so interesting to have him around, to listen him talking and his views of the post-apocaliptic world and of the metro are extremely compelling!
A Concerned Commissar Na khan is dead smart one
Jartard SSJPDSC dark one?
I had a good ending.. And I almost cried.. What a good storytelling ! Loved every single second of this game..
25:51 this is heart breaking..
yeah... :( bad end... to me
i cant even watch it.. instantly crying man
I like the bad ending a little because Uncle Bourbon makes an appearance.
Bourbon pilled. They brought the character that was in two missions back, hell yeah
@@Duck-ou3qy hellyeah, with bourbon we were first time outside in moscow and when i first played it in 2011, i was 14 and i was scared to hell when we split and so happy when i found him again :D was nice to see him again in exodus
SUM PEPOL CALL HEM DEMONS, I CAL HEM BIECHES
3:09 ;-;
At the beginning of the game i really didn’t like Miller, but the end.......... :’(
This Game Brought Me To Tears.. Truly One Of The Most Underrated Games
@4:30 tell me who cried when they saw Miller tilted over like that or @3:00 when Miller actually called Artyom "son" while being concerned and giving him the last of the anti Rad shot. (heart string pulls man).
Yup i cried when he did that and continued until end credit scene
Man I was happy I had the good ending so all that cut scene was one big tear jerk
@@VBMslayqueen I mean it wasn't that hard to get the good ending compared to 2033 or last light. Just listen to the characters talking and telling you what to do and look at the subtitle ques of who is talking. If it's a tribesman don't kill if it's a bandit go guns blazing.
Me too
The music in this game especially at the last mission is just on point!!! Not many games can manage that!!!
I may be the only one but I feel they need to give Artyom an in game voice now where he actually talks and have to make choices. It goes against all the past games but now he’s the commander. He has to talk and make decisions
actually u hear artyoms voice through the entire game, for example, when u are in the loading screen and there is a text on the left talking about the story(they are mainly cut-outs of the dialogues of the storyline), artyom will be the one reading them.
NeMtEx no shit but he doesn’t talk in game. The fact they already have a voice actor just makes more sense to implement it in game
Yeah. I mean, everything else in this game is so immersive but the main character not talking to others kinda breaks the immersion for me
@@MrSn4rk Well he is the strong, silent type. But I agree the next game with Artyom as commander of the Order, he probably needs a voice in-game for it to work.
It pisses me off cause in a couple of scenes some characters are LITERALLY calling him out on the damn radio but he never says ANYTHING to have them make sure that he's okay.
Anyone else feel as though the game was a bit short? It’s was an amazing game though
Seeing as it is at least twice the length of Last Light, which was already longer than 2033, not really.
I expected little more of content from Taiga and Novosibirsk. I thought it would be similar as Volga and Caspian Sea regions. You know little question marks so I can go there and investigate.
Baklly there were question marks on Taiga, you just had to find them, though they’re mostly just the nests and dens and obviously there’s less than in the 2 main open levels because the map is way smaller and more linear. Personally I like the levels the way they are and the length of the game is great. They’re even improving.
@@Vox_Popul1 Maybe I was there. I do not mean it exactly in bad way. I would just love to spend more time in those areas to do stuff. And yeah Taiga is much smaller then previous regions. But I must say, when I crossed the bridge during night and all those fucking wolves were roaming around, I was scared.
Yeah Novosibirsk was way too linear and short
A legit 4th game scenario could be something like this:
- The survivors create a new base/city in that Baikal lake place, and build up defences to protect themselves from bandits and mutants.
- At the same time, Artyum must go on missions from all around Russia to save/recruit people and solve problems such as lack of supplies to survive..
- In the game you will visit back The Forest for Olga and the tree kids, the desert slaves Ghul and back to Moscow for the people from Metro.
- Back in Moscow you will be forced to fight against Hanza, Red Line, 4th Reich, Bandits, Mutants etc...
So there would be more RPG/RTS elements such as in FrostPunk game to manage the colony in a First Person perspective, with open world maps.. with tough decisions to make, with also different endings.. that would be a decent METRO 4 game I would say..
Don't forget the evil Nato invasion force
fallout 4 settlement system + metro's amazing atmosphere and gameplay+what you said= BEST GAME EVER
@@eliot5716 as one who spent 20+ hours building settlements yea it was bad,but if you can upgrade it,it would be better.i prefer falllouts building mechanics more than minecraft type'o crap
No, it's bad idea. Can't we just let artyom rest? He fought enough in both games and books he should be finally left alone.
The sad thing is that in books he was fucked 1000x more than in games
This is exactly what I want too, kinda like metro version fallout 4, but man, it’s hard to imagine how much such a development would cost / what company can do that lul
I deadass thought the kid was going to be a illusion and was suprised when he wasn’t
finished it 20 mins ago with the good ending, another game on the very short list to have made me cry
Same though
Sob
Is it a short game?
@@alifaiman1851 think its about 5 hours if you rush through the story
@@alifaiman1851 me around 21 hours bcause i prefer exploring first before doing a main quest. And goddamn i got bad ending, gonna try a 2nd play to get a good ending
Bro thats fast af, already woah
That's what she said.
Yeah, I'm sorry, I'm going to leave now...
Yeah ik i just beat it today
Developers often underestimate the gaming prowess of a dedicated player. It's not surprising at all when someone can take a 30hr campaign game and finish it in a day.
@@FatalFist he had a copy before it launched man, dont be ignorant, look at upload date.
Meybi what are you even on about? Work on your comprehension skills, for real.
The ending wash away all bad Impressions about this game. They have done what they do best, good story telling. Suck on that Bethesda!
Suck on what, these games have nothing in common out side of post apoc
Itsme M yeah and you can very much compare these games just because they are not alike doesnt you necessarily compare the story telling Bethesda is ass when it comes to story telling SOMETIMES
is DEEP SILVER no bethesda xD
@@elbirri this was made by 4a games not deep shilver
idiot
@@addaccount9246 dude, deep silver is the publisher i never say was the developer.
besides the comment is for giang nguyen.
I'm happy for how things turned out in the good ending, even if it is sad.
There is something in Colonel Miller's monologue at the end that just makes me have a huge respect for him. He accepts his fate with dignity and passes the command to Artyom. Also, that line: "I like it here, I would want to stay here forever. Can you arrange that for me?", made me burst into laughter.
Besides, in the last scene, Artyom finally speaks to his peers!
Fuck's sake this is my favorite game now the story is just so sweet and bitter at the same only Metro could do that and this is why I love it
An eternal ride in a shabby old train with old friends and a boss at work father-in-law.
A dream life Artyom got there.
Well, sort-of. Miller drops him off at the station with the post-card of where his wife goes to by the ocean. I think he just gets left alone at the station to forever just look at a postcard where his family went without him.
@YouDon'tHaveToKnow
No, Artyom gets left at a foreign train station, alone, with a postcard to contemplate his dream he'll never catch, reminding him of his widowed wife's eternal mourne and sorrow, and this for all of eternity...
Artyom's situation is so depressing the more you think of it.
not gonna lie i would want to drink beer with bourbon for the rest of my existence
Oh, so it's literally how much people you save.
That is... Interesting.
You do achieve your goal either way, but in the bad one there are barely any people to save. Very interesting!
I went around killing defenseless slaves and other npcs and I got the bad ending. Now I really regret it 😂
I really think it was a bad way to end a game. I think it was it's biggest flaw. Especially how it was not one single decision in the end to make your ending good or bad, it happened all though out the game where your decision would not affect the outcome of if you were to live or not. After waiting over 5 years to play another game, I get the bad ending because of "mistakes" I made? I bought you game and played in my preferred style and you essentially punish me for it?
@@mepp7573 i bought the game too and i got the good ending. if your "playstyle" is just shooting everyone and not listening to people then you cant really complain about the ending you got. getting the good ending is easy
@@rizey542 I only recall shooting one slave by accident, and I didn't just shoot everyone. It's a pretty big slap in the face by 4A to even have a "bad ending." After reading all the books and waiting over 5 YEARS, yes, it is a huge slap in the face to me.
@Munser
just like last light. its just bad game design. I got the bad ending Because killing cannibal bandits, commies and nazis who kill women and children is a "BAD CHOICE".
I had the good ending, but man, I was not ready to cry like this.
This end hits hard...
I'm so glad I've played Metros games. Really good.
Man i was so late to this but duke was the only one that died and i was sure i had the bad ending the whole time but it got me seeing that i still survived and got the good ending
