The Metro trilogy (so far) was on a sale a couple weeks ago. Beat 2033 and am on Last Light now. Good stuff!

I still have to get to Exodus. I played and loved 2033, played and has very mixed feelings about Last Light. But now with a fourth title on the way I should really get to Exodus, it's supposed to be the best one.

How are you finding Last Light so far compared to 2033?

Just finished Last Light. The action sections were worse, and the stealth sections were better. The story was a better story, but told in a sometimes tedious way. I liked that there were strong characters and higher stakes, but something about the atmosphere wasnt as compelling. And the final one or two hours or so kind of dragged.

I also have mixed feelings, but I would still recommend. Good overall with occasional very good parts. I mostly wish that the final act was more fun.
