Nooooow it's a true/false ordeal. Because in the loading screen he does talk but it was based on his dairy entree

[@tylerp.5004]

I think it's because the notes and the load screens still convey his thoughts and perspective very well, but in-game it's more his actions and his sense of duty where he acts without comment or complaint as you press on with him. Even when faced with horror and the unknown, he doesn't quip or even show fear, even if he is clearly scared, but instead does what he thinks needs to be done and continues on,, no matter what.

[@manelcolomer9044]

He probably saved his life. If not for Hunter he would have stayed at the Exibition and most likely died if the Nosalies invaded and overrun the station (like they did at the Cursed Station). Instead he went on a journey to Polis and eventually joined the Spartan Order, becaming it's leader.

Metro is a game that I will always support. Exodus renewed my hopes that the devs want to return to the storytelling of 2033. There are many little stories left unnswered from the books and 2033 (submarines, tank village, cannibal tribe station, metro 2 tunnels) Alas we got to see them return as hints. Sams story and two colonels really shows how good this game can be. Though its surprising there was not a dlc for retrieving the snow plow. If we get another game. I suspect we will follow Sam to America. I'm curious to see more of this universe. Though I really believe the game should stay to the dark tunnels of the metro.

[@dragonbornexpress5650]

Disagree; Two entire games were focused on the Metro as well as the beginning part of the third game. At that point, it kinda gets old; Stick to the outside world for now, though the story WILL head back to the Metro eventually to take out the Invisible Watchers as the writers are clearly implying.

[@setolight]

I know people were annoyed that the story changed and started becoming it’s own thing but I feel like that’s a good thing, it like you can experience more of the metro universe this way. I stopped watching this about half way because I want to read the story and play the games now. Thank you for reminding me that this game exist.

Fun fact: in the books ( which I guess are canon over the games ) the red line wins the war against the fourth Reich... When the fourth Reich has artyom captive they try to do a push to annex the theatre station but the red line launches a massive counter attack. Afterwards the red line troops move through lubyanka station and push towards pushinskaya station ( essentially the Nazis capital, because it's where they started first as a power ). They tried to block tunnels, the reds just pushed through, defences got overrun, units were being swarmed and so in an attempt to save themselves from a now inevitable defeat they flooded the line between Lubyanka and pushinskaya. Unfortunately for them however, this had the reverse effect they wanted. The red line troops were fine, the fourth Reich however, proceeded to have all three of their stations flooded and have to be abandoned essentially giving control of all three of them to the red line. So like military ways ( most of their soldiers either died in the flooding or were captured ) or governmental ways ( the fuhrer and his top leaders fled ) the fourth Reich has collapsed and no longer exists.

True, but at the same time I think it's more simply cultural wisdom andexpectance. There's a lot of stories about Russia starting war from Slavic countries because, well, the region's modern history has been smothered with oppression under the USSR and Russian control, and many countries have since wanted to make sure that their independence from Russia and a prevention of a return to anything close to a USSR type organization. It's a sad fact that the roots of stories like Metro are reflections on the blood-stained history of the region.

It was little things like that helped make the games so good.

Bit of a bummer thing I have to say but we may be waiting in vain or at least a long time for a sequel to metro exodus due to a developer (Andrii Korzinkin)having passed away from protecting his home country of Ukraine from war.

For me Metro Exodus is the most immersive and exciting FPS game I've ever played. It was seriously amazing, scary and just a total blast. Also the fact that all these games have multiple endings makes them great for a second or even third playthrough. Playing through Metro Exodus again but this time without killing a single enemy was a total thrill. Love these game, can't wait for the next instalment in the franchise

[@bbbbbbb51]

The lack of/minimal HUD from the first game set a trend that the industry has largely taken note of for the better. Nothing takes me out of a game like having a bunch of stuff plastered all over it. Having stuff you carry actually be a hud replacement was a smart move in terms of design and it's something I adore when other games do. Make the knobs, buttons, and screens in a spaceship mean something. Instead of my character just knowing the time, give them a watch. Instead of them just knowing the layout of every area around them, give them a physical map to pull out. All those little details allow me to suck myself on further than if they were just put on the screen 24/7. It also give you more space to wander, explore, and actually focus on what's in front of you instead of staring at the HUD. Its something a lot of open world games still massively struggle with.

I'm not a gamer (like at all) and have played none of the games featured on this channel. Yet I absolutely love watching these videos and always look forward to them! Please keep up the great work! (:

become a gamer

[@DarlingMissDarling]

Same! Not a gamer and honestly will never have the time (or interest, frankly) to dump countless hours into a game so these videos are a fantastic way to enjoy some of these spectacularly inventive narratives!

[@beencomfy]

You guys should try single player games, you don’t need to put much time in, an hour or so just as you would watch a film, immersion is what most of us play for even when there is little time for it

[@DarlingMissDarling]

@@beencomfy Honestly, nah. Having to successfully navigate gameplay to move the story along is not anything like watching a movie. One is choose your own adventure (maybe. if you're good at the game.) and the other is media I can enjoy without needing to perform tasks and solve puzzles just to find out the end of the damn story. I want to relax in my downtime, not fully start a hobby of working at maybe getting the "good ending" for a plot payoff of a game and then needing to DO IT ALL AGAIN for the other possible endings? Nope. As I said, being a gamer just isn't for me. 🤣

[@bbbbbbb51]

​@@DarlingMissDarlingit's understandable, but I hope you also grasp that those of us who do enjoy it find it as relaxing as reading a book or watching a film. Some people just want to blast enemies with friends, but plenty of us find the narratives, characters, and dialogues to be what engrosses us the most and it ends up feeling more comfy and relaxing than anything else.

Loved this series of games. All of the games were good (to me anyway) loved the most recent one as well. Incredible graphics. When I got my 3070Ti/thread ripper combo I was flabbergasted at how beautiful it looked on PC. I truly hope we see another metro game in the coming few years.

[@GamingHarryYT]

Yeah the PC Enhanced Edition was gorgeous.

[@halo129830]

I can’t be arsed but I remember reading a tweet stating that another game is already in the tubes and a reveal will be sometime this year or in 2023 the developers posted this a few years ago and with how the world is going I’m leaning more towards 2023 hell 2024 even

[@prodPavka]

Loved this video man. The amount of effort you out into it. It felt like I was watching a movie about Metro. Absolutely wonderful work. Looking forward to more series like this. ✌️

[@tackydesign6064]

After already beating these twice, once 100 percenting them, I thoroughly enjoyed this recap. One of my favorite series of all time. Thanks!

[@PARTIZAN-ARMS531]

It's was not a dark one that attacked artyom and the caravan at the 9:12 min mark it was a anomaly of the tunnels a flouting ball of unknown energy that put all men on the caravan unconscious and artyom had a premonition dream of hunter and the the dark one.

[@thephantom1794]

I accidentally stumbled across the metro 2033 game and wasn't to sure on it at first but quickly fell in love with it and it is now one of my favourite games

[@FacelessOnes]

Hey Harry, I love these long videos. I truly enjoy them so I hope you keep these up. Thanks again!

[@AxelTutty]

i love how deep and meaningful the metro story is and you have depicted it well

[@medakakurokami7101]

a slight suggestion go full stock gear before launching the taiga (forest) level, it will save your gun attachments and mods, same for sams story when starting the level, go stock shotgun and kalash and you will have the mods saved

[@alielmadari8645]

finally one of my favorite games of all time gets its turn on the spotlight.

[@henryboydmead]

Great video Harry; I found you recently and cannot wait to see more of your videos in the future!

[@gungginggah324]

Just found your channel and wow Im a big fan. Editing and narration is superb. Thank you so much for covering Metro, really hits home i remember playing this back in 6th grade and being scared. Good times.

[@kunduo]

This game has a special place in my heart as I essentially grew up playing these over my teens

[@Puppy_Puppington]

I freaking loved exodus. I don’t care much for the weird alien stuff in the beginning titles but I still had so much fun with the games. Not only did exodus kick so much ass, the DLC where u play as the American was an amazing cherry on top just cause I got to hear Steve Blum voice the guy

[@halo129830]

Also the Thompson and m1911 were badass

[@tylerp.5004]

I actually liked the ideas of the Dark Ones, it made for a great story about people trying to survive against horrible odds, and what people are willing to do in order to do so. That the Spartan Order, though they are extremely good people and are a beacon for all of the metro, are still only people, and their endless mantra to protect what they love with tooth and claw only ends up killing untold numbers of those which only ever wished to be understood. I think one of the great things about metro is that it is extremely even handed and down to earth when it comes to depicting real people with all the ideals and flaws that they have. That there are many sides to the same story, and the thin line of understanding that can seperate the view between hero and murderer.

How to disrespect 2 title and reduce another title to a voice actor

[@krugersavage6347]

It was April 2010 when my grandfather was hospitalized and died a week later. I was visiting him in the hospital, I took a break for a bit and visited the internet cafe when I saw this game's trailer recommended by KZbin. I was a Call of Duty addict back then so Metro 2033's idea and gameplay was mindblowing to me back then and I vividly remember getting excited for this game. Damn, what a nostalgia hit, games in the early 2010s were something else.

[@ChrisMathew5]

Thank you so much for the work you put into these videos, Harry!!

[@unknown_karma12334]

worth to note harry, in caspian sea, in the bunker where artym finds the map, if you go to the various computers that work around, you can see they show that an automated portable ICBM system is active and ready to fire. It's based on the 8x8 russian massive truck that i think everyone knows about

[@mrvrguy9112]

I really like these types of videos and this one is really cool and good. It shows that you actually did your research. Keep up the good work

[@Waynegameandwatch]

Really glad I found this series you do an awesome job explaining the series

[@FirstnameLastname-qc3xx]

Amazing job man! I never had the chance to read the books but they’re getting added to the list!

[@2amsam724]

Just wanted to say thank you for this video. I'm traveling on my own in South America at the moment, and having these long videos going through these cool stories with a friendly voice is exactly what I need sometimes

[@landonmoore5426]

For some of the people who got metro exodus for the ending that was shown here is the good ending and to get the good ending you have to do all the quests for the charectors and sorta do a passive run with not killing a certain enemies in certain areas and if you don't do this you will get the bad ending and no I won't say what the bad ending is

[@Philipp3022]

you actually just need 2/3 semi-open world chapters without losing a crew member.

[@landonmoore5426]

@@Philipp3022 wait what do you mean by "without losing the crew"?

[@Philipp3022]

@@landonmoore5426 you can lose 1 member of the aurora in the swamp, desert and forest chapter - depending on the factors you mentioned - 2/3 are needed after the last chapter to get the good end.

Esse era o vídeo que eu tava procurando, um vídeo comentando sobre o universo Metro, eu esperava algum vídeo brasileiro, mas ainda bem que esse vídeo tem legendas em português

[@ironcannabis]

That was a fascinating story you put together, thank you for your time and resources!

[@sarakennedy1592]

Many, many thanks for the work you put into making this video. I thoroughly enjoyed it.

[@BrownTownReport]

I made sure Artyom did all the good actions because it wouldn't make sense what he experience in the metro to completely 180 on what he learned.

[@Otterdisappointment]

I liked some details in Metro as a whole like the critique of Russian belligerence (the games were made by the Ukrainians that made STALKER which happens to famously be set in the Pripyat exclusion zone; one of Russia’s *many* crimes against them), the stations being named and themed (and name for that theme) after old city states and the makeup and origin of mutant creatures and in Exodus specifically like the languages being spoken on the disabled jammer, the Dark Ones in Novosibirsk and the fact the Ark was never finished and the Eurasianist government died, which is poetic considering Russia’s extreme Kleptocracy and nihilism, and finally the Fallout style radio signals on the train with goofy music and characters talking about their settlements in places like Irkutsk; if you tune in before Dead City you can hear Kirill crying trying to call his dead dad. I shed a tear but it didn’t make me cry as much as Moscow and Novosibirsk Dead City apocalypse flashbacks in view of the missiles launching and other payloads detonating; The pilots of an airliner screaming “I don’t wanna die” in the arguably best one did it for me.

[@thegreatdekutree3672]

Oh my gosh!!! Almost to 100 K! I’ve been here since near the beginning, and it’s exciting to see how much the channel has grown!

[@flowers7348]

Holy cow. This was just amazing! I've only played Metro and Last Light but this cleared up a bunch of big things I had always thought and how the story progresses!!! I've read 2033 and you did great job in the "short" summary you did . Just a really great experience. Thank you so much for this!

[@ryuhanja3415]

Metro is one of my favorite games, everything about it pulls me back. The story, the lore, the world, everything about Metro pulls me back ever year to play through all the games again and read the books. If you can look past the Eastern developer jank the game is incredibly good.

[@djtoxicdhg]

The metro series is honestly one of my most favorite game series.

[@axelgaming2809]

Huge respect to your craft !!! When I heard the announcement of this video I was excited because that’s a fast ass hour I just say though I can’t wait for the next video like this !!!!

[@blee04524]

Exodus is one of the most immersive game I’ve played Interestingly I was kinda disappointed on my first play through partly due to some of the dialogues but mainly how short the game is. I fully immersed myself and rp the game on my 2nd play through and oh boy it’s good
