Games Inbox: What March game are you most looking forward to? – Metro.co.uk


I recently checked out with a fellow gamer of mine and their copy of Metro Exodus on the PlayStation 4. I wanted to experience it as I personally won’t bother getting my copy until I have got a couple more of my current games under my belt. I am just continuously amazed by the graphical textures. Seriously, I probably just played the game, not to get to the next bit of storyline, but to see a new piece of wall or a different type of window, the piping, textiles, and wood of various items and furniture around the place.

I have mentioned a ton of times the levels of painstaking detail developers are involved in by just being so darn good at creating these immersive backgrounds or foregrounds. The dynamic lighting effects and weather are naturally taken for granted in real life but in a computer game, you see it as nature being so inspirational to the artwork and then being tested to gob-smacking proportions in the game’s own version of a world.

When it comes to open world gaming and the vastness of the world around you I can except a gradual loss of detail here and there, due to the epic scale. But here in the world of Metro Exodus, this seems to be a case of a huge world plus graphical features you would more likely see in a six or eight hour standard first person shooter – which due to the corridor nature of levels and limited exploration can afford more detail, no matter how significant or insignificant.

The gameplay or gunplay I agree with GameCentral is not the best I have played, but this is just a small part of something way, way greater. Exploring the first area and getting to know how things work and eventually talking and chatting to fellow comrades at various points makes me think how far we have come in gaming and now we have all ended up here at Metro Exodus’ doors, and as I have said before, ‘How can this now be beaten?!’

Don’t worry, I know even games like God Of War, Metro Exodus, and Red Dead Redemption II will eventually be outclassed by newer technology, but seriously I am just taken aback by how far technology has come. It’s not like I have left gaming for a couple of years and seen a leap of game design on return, as I have constantly been in touch with everything non-stop and seen the gaming evolution from the 8-bit era all the way up to the craziness of technology we are fortunate to experience right now.

My overall view of Metro Exodus at the moment is sheer bliss for me, a perfect post-apocalyptic world and a really exciting and interesting storyline just starting. I can’t wait to find out more of these tales from this wasteland to think about and further investigate when I eventually get the game for myself. The amazing thing is that this is not even Fallout 3 or 4 I am talking about but possibly a new gaming experience which may just beat them, which is saying something in my eyes! Simply awesome.
