Maybe my goodwill for Exodus stems from me having red the first book immediately before playing the third entry but I reckon I’d have enjoyed it even without the reading exercise.

I didn’t like the middle of the game as much but beginning and the last third of the game were really good in my opinion.

My GTX 1080 handled the game reasonablky well on 1440p with most things on high. No comparison with RTX cards was possible for me but the game looks good anyway. If you have a card that should be able to handle the game you don’t have to wait to enjoy it. Those RTX effects won’t make it into a 10/10 game.

I’d say give it a go

As someone who enjoyed both previous Metro games and is looking forward to Stalker 2 with avid interest, would this experience be worth it a year or two later with a better card and waiting for a sale?
