Metro Exodus (2019 Video Game)
9/10
Terrible optimization

So many plot holes, gameplay, menus control and crosshaire handling are all terrible (feels like with big mouse latency and acceleration that it made very discomfortable to play and no graphical settings helped to remove it), and very bad optimization of the game in general. Like in 30minutes of gameplay there is a place with a crane, where you climb up to meet one dude named Kahir or something cant recall his name but he was expelled from the church where a cult was living in. So on that crane i checked both sides of the map and one side was like 100+ fps, and the other side where was the hangar and the mentioned church at the fps dropped below 60 fps and it felt very bad, not smooth at all. And again, changing graphical settings didnt help at all, at least going from ultra to high it didnt help. I always thought older metro games were terribly optimized but now i think it was pretty ok compared to this game. At least lowering graphical settings used to help with these problems. I wonder maybe creators of this game used the same old unoptimized engine for this game, and thats a terrible idea because the new graphics needs new engine and optimizations. And my computer can run 2019 games (this game is from 2019) like Control for an example without any problems. Little bit tinkering with graphical settings needed, but thats all i can play with nearly maxed out settings. This game is just terrible at optimization and if not this problem, then i would give way better score here. But i loved some stuff like the new gun modification way and some other things that which made the game not so bad, but i was feeling the need to mention all the bad stuff here mainly.

In the end im happy that they at least used the happy ending to for this story line to take from. And i loved some most dramatic scenes in this game (especially the whole TWO COLONELS DLC! Best dlc ive ever seen! And that dramatic scene in the end of it.. it took my heart away, my heart just skipped some beats, it was super emotional for me ;/)
