Resident Evil 2 scored higher than Metro: Exodus

https://www.gamespot.com/reviews/metro-exodus-review-light-at-the-end-of-the-tunnel/1900-6417087/

Metro Exodus / PC

THE GOOD

Endearing characters and earnest interactions bring you closer to the crew and journey

Top-notch world building with intriguing stories throughout, despite the genre tropes

Crafting and customization systems put you in control without sacrificing tension

Impactful gunplay makes the challenging combat scenarios thrilling

THE BAD

Open sandbox areas are a bit sparse and occasionally a pain to navigate

Technical issues (performance spikes, crashes, bugs) can be frustrating

Le shame.

I knew it was getting 8. all good games get 8 on gamespot.

COD WW2 and Far cry 2 got 9 here lol.

lol, nice thread. I'll be picking this up once it hits Steam, and not the disaster that is the Epic Store.

What is that monstrosity of a picture? Looks like a mashup between Leon and Ada.

ACG rated it as buy.

its getting positive reviews from critics.

I can easily wait until next year for the Steam the release.

What makes RE2 better than Exodus? It can't be the diversity, map design, atmosphere or freedom of choice.

nastolgia and name.

evil within 2 is almost similar game but score less due to not named RE2.

Hopefully they do a separate console review cause that pc performance shit is bringing down the whole team.

Also definitely not loving the "pain to navigate" part.

@sakaixx: "this game is not on the rails, it's a challenge so it's bad- Gamespot"

becasue "why there is no giant arrow shows where to go"??

while worst FPS of all time like this

https://www.gamespot.com/reviews/wolfenstein-2-the-new-colossus-review/1900-6416796/

get 9/10.

like i said. nowadays if game get 8. it means is freaking brilliant!!. its amazing.

Na, they say it's very buggy and poorly designed. Not that it's hard. Resident Evil 2 is more difficult.

Thankfully it had a "standard" option for Metro fans.

Doesn't matter if Metro gets an 8 or a 9, I'll still pick it up one day. I'll wait a couple og months and see if some of the bugs get patched.

Residen Evil 2 is exquisite, but I don't really see the need to compare it to Metro, as they are very different games.

RE2 was not that hard if you have enough herbs. either use them or go back to typewriter. i choose later and save herbs.

this game is just 4 times bigger and more varied than RE2. each and every glass is breakable.

Spam save every 3 feet and play on a lower setting, with mouse aim.

Lol Metro. All that breakable glass and it couldn't even score a 9.

because apperently 8 is bad score.

you proven my point again. it doesnot score 9 because its not mainstream and not nastolgia attached.

if kevin reviewed it

https://www.gamespot.com/reviews/metro-last-light-review/1900-6408419/

it would have been 9 easily. best GS reviewer ever.

Dat Rape face of Leon 0_0

But anyways, I'll buy Metro Exodus next year when it finally comes to Steam.

Makes sense, RE2 is just better.

I haven't play it yet so I dont expect anything but if it causes the reviewer problem during his play time it may be an issue. In his review he said the rewards for venturing into the sanbox area offers little rewards and Metro style movement is not optimal for such a large map.

Please pin this thread till 2021 when this forum will die.

@ghosts4ever: That meta score looking pretty low. So much for goty.

Metro Exodus is overrated. Its overrated I tell ya.

Pffft, Crackdown 3 getting a GS 10/10 will put both to shame. lolol :P

as expected. STALKER and Metro went under 80s.

not low at all.

beside evil within 2 is same quality as RE2 but it scored less because of nastolgia and RE name.

@ghosts4ever: Nope, thats just you trying to justify its low scores. RE2 is king, kneel.

@uninspiredcup:

https://www.metacritic.com/game/pc/metro-exodus

https://www.metacritic.com/game/pc/stalker-shadow-of-chernobyl

Metacritic of both STALKER and Metro are exact same. almost.

and STALKER is best game ever (along with Deus Ex 1).

Karma at its best. Even Thronebreaker: The Witcher Tales got a 9/10 from Gamespot.

@vaeh: Lmao! Delicious.

Of course it did lol

As I was kind of expecting, it's an OK game. Nothing special it seems.

I'll be picking up the patched and further optimized version next year on steam store :D

I really can't be the only one that dislikes this slight animosity between cup and ghost. It's wrong.

RE2 and Exodus should've never happened.

I won't say too much, but I got early code for Exodus for review last week and already finished it. Review isn't done yet but I loved the game. Probably more than the RE2 remake, which is more polished (and still great) but Exodus impressed me more overall. It left me wanting more even though its the longest game in the series by far.

if you liked Last Light, you should love Exodus.

good start to the year for survival horror fans (though Exodus is more of an action game, it does have some great horror sections).

I think the comparison is a jab at ghosts4ever, who brought up Metro in another RE2 thread.

thoughts are with you at this tough time x

@uninspiredcup:

Next, I predict that Cyberpunk will barely score an 8 too. Fans will surely throw shitfits like crazy.

Proof that not every game needs to adopt an open world sandbox play style.

Seems to be appropriate to me. I have no plans on getting Metro Exodus myself anytime soon if ever. I’m currently too busy playing the masterpiece that is Resident Evil 2 Remake plus I have a number of other excellent games like Kingdom Hearts 3 still waiting to be played.

People still care about scores? Gonna pick it up after finishing Hitman 2. Just hope it's not buggy.

@princessgomez92: XD

Because overall its a better game. Higher rated on GS, higher rated on MC and it will sell more.

those games convert us from friends to foe.

other than being buggy is only negative thing i keep hearing. its STALKER all over again. buggy but masterpiece.

https://www.ausgamers.com/games/metro-exodus/review/

here you go. 9.5/10.

@ghosts4ever: https://gamingbolt.com/resident-evil-2-review-modern-classic

Here you go.

10/10

LMAO you are right.

Battlefield V got a 8 on here recently as well, and that game is night and day compared to COD WW2.

Expecting a Eastern European game to be free of bugs is like expecting a smooth Bethesda game launch.

These games are so immersive that one always forget if he encountering a bug.

I was so immersed in STALKER that i didnot notice any glitch or bug at all and i keep playing it.

True, one thing I really hope for come the day after tomorrow is smooth performance.

As long as the game's performance is good, it's like all I will be doing is getting immersed in Exodus' world.

Bold prediction. I wonder how many death threats Tom McShea received from TLOU fans.

Thank God Metro Exodus is not Sony exclusive. Cows would've killed the gamespot reviewer.

Jim Sterling gave The Witcher 2 a 6/10. Even CDPR haters admitted the review was crap.

Harsh scores won't stop Cyberpunk 2077. Day 0 buy on GOG. No mercy #Resetera
