#RECHARGE LIGHT METRO LAST LIGHT PC FREE#

Plans only last so long as the first enemy contact, and Artyom’s mission takes a nosedive shortly after as he’s ambushed by the Fourth Reich, a group of Neo-Nazis that operate in a part of the Metro.Â They’re one of three major factions and are as pleasant as they sound.Â The Reds are a communist group that have taken up residence along with the Order Artyom belongs to.Â None of the three really get along all that well but haven’t gone to war with each other quite yet, although it’s headed that way.Â The missile silo, D6, that Artyom found previously is in hot contention and while the Order controls it, the others want it as they feel it will decide the fate of the Metro.Â The Reich try to get information out of Artyom, but one of the Red soldiers that was also captured helps Artyom escape.Â From there it gets complicated as Artyom finds out that he can’t really trust his new friend the hard way and the Reds end up setting upon his target as well, the last living Dark One.Īrtyom is determined to finish his mission, however, and with the help of a few unaligned friends like the Blacksmith and some Fisherman.Â While most of the danger comes from the Reich and other human groups, there are plenty of critters that crawl in the dark with hints of what they might have been long before the apocalypse but are far more dangerous and deadly than they used to be.Â The characters are well written and you’re given some free reign to interact or not interact with a variety of characters throughout the Metro as you encounter them even though the story is very much linear in its telling and progression.Â Going into this without having played the first game I was a little lost at first even with the very brief recap, but a quick trip to Wikipedia to read up on the previous events was enough to keep me up to speed with what was going on.Â The politics and the mission drive this story and it feels very distinct despite the post-apocalyptic setting, which we’ve seen before.Â While I wouldn’t want to live in that world, it is fun visiting and exploring it. The Dark Ones’ thoughts were too strong and drove many people who they tried to talk to insane and killed them, except for Artyom who seemed to be immune.Â Realizing that they were only trying to communicate far too late, it was already done and the missiles had wiped them out, or so the Order that Artyom belongs to thought.Â It seems a Dark One has survived and they’ve decided to send Artyom out with a partner to sort through the remnants of the strike to find the survivor.Â The game picks up where the first game and book left off.Â The game follows the ending to the first book and the â€˜bad’ ending from the first game where our hero, Artyom, uses a tag to guide missiles into an area to kill the Dark Ones, a group of paranormally charged mutated humans who communicate with telepathy.Â They’re just some of the surface survivors of a nuclear war that leveled Moscow, leaving the surface uninhabitable and driving survivors into the Metro system, the lengthy subway that runs under the city. They’ve done a great job blending the first-person shooter and survival horror genres and coupled them with a great story that really draws you in along with its great atmosphere and richly detailed world.Â

I didn’t know much about Metro 2033 other than it being a first-person shooter game set in post-apocalyptic Russia.Â I ended up getting it in the Humble Bundle when THQ popped into that last year and just hadn’t had a chance to sit down and actually play it with my work schedule and other reviews.Â After playing Metro: Last Light I will be making time to play the first one.Â From talking with Mark, they’ve made some marked improvements over the first game between framerate and AI, and other than one or two minor hiccups I saw the game runs beautifully.

Genre: First-Person Shooter/Survival Horror
