Metro Redux (Nintendo Switch)

Metro Redux is two games rolled into one packed onto one cartridge, so doesn’t require any internet connection and can be played straight from the box.Based on a post nuclear Russia where survivors live in groups underground, fighting one another as well as the mutants which roam on the wasteland above.Visually the game pushes the Switch to its limits and really does look great on the small screen although be prepared for it to be dark and not always easy to see what’s happening, especially if you’re playing in a lighted room or outside in the day.The controls are spot on and you can either play on Spartan mode which gives you more ammunition or survival mode which makes the gameplay more horrifying and stealth driven, but either mode the game isn’t Call of Duty and ammo runs out quick!The storyline is engrossing and oozes atmosphere, it’s often worth hanging around just to hear background character’s conversations which really add to the backstory.As mentioned earlier, the only issue I’ve found with the game, is that it’s so dark which doesn’t always translate Well to the small screen, it’s only a minor issue but it does make Metro a less mobile game as it’s so difficult to play in brightly lite areas

It arrived earlier than I expected and cartridge was working. So I didn't have any problems with shipping or condition of the cartridge. That's what my 5 star rating is for. About the game itself, port is just awful Some areas are too dark and some areas are bright enough to make you go blind. Controls feel clunky and are incredibly uncomfortable. As if the mutants weren't enough, I also had to fight the controls. It is way worse compared to PS4 or Xbox one controls. Graphics are great for a game in Switch but there are some random tearings which breaks the atmosphere by making your eyes bleed. There weren't any extra downloads though, that's a big plus for me. Sound quality is pretty good though, but duration of loading screens seem to be random. First loading screen in the game lasted for about a minute, then next one lasted for 15 seconds. Then next one lasted for 30 seconds. This seems to be a problem on other platforms as well. Overall, I would give the port a 4/10 since it is barely playable but still fun. Game itself deserves a solid 9/10 though.

Very good game. Lots of fun. Recommended if you like shooters.

Great story. The stealth section hold up well. However when it gets to combat the aiming is unnaturally slow even on its highest setting. Really ruined the immersion to those moments that were meant to be tense and heart racing. Really frustrating as a majority of the times I died in combat was purely because of this. I'd be tempted to give a two start for the fact that this could have been easily fixed before releasing of the switch. It's an obvious and unacceptable flaw, why do developers release things in this state.Sadly this one thing made the game feel so dated. Otherwise I would give it a 5

A great port of a great game. Make sure you turn brightness to maximum on your Switch settings. It’s dark in those tunnels.

Well optimized, maybe better than on PC

I wanted to PAL version of the Metro Redux but I received the North American version, which I could have got cheaper elsewhere.

Great game to kill time, well put together, and you get 2 games in one. Great fps

Descripción como lo descrito, no es un juego para niños, llega a estresarte por los gráficos y la dificultad.

Game arrived quickly and ready to play.

Love it
