What people don't seem to realise is that finding the map in that facility took the lives of so many stalkers. We see occasional corpses of stalkers in the area carrying ammo for you to scrounge. There are arrows and markers everywhere, telling us where to go. Rooms that were already search will have "Searched, no maps" written at the entrance so the next person won't spend so much time in the radioactive area. How many stalkers died leading to this? A dozen perhaps. All sacrificed their lives in hopes that the next person that comes would find the map and escape this hellhole.
And in the end their efforts were not in vain. In the end their collective efforts to assure the next person just might get the maps paid off, a new group found the maps and made it to the promised land, and they intend to bring more.
Theres a diary that you can find, idk if its the same stalker or one from another team, total of three. 5 minutes in a single archive and it takes up a monthly dose of them greens, A WHOLE MONTH FOR 5 MINUTES, a squad is up to 4 or smth. And they were even talking about the blind ones being one of the reason as to why "Several squads" went missing, that place is terrifying.
Metro exodus is a criminally underappreciated masterpiece. It is literally impossible to express the magnitude of the atmosphere that is built around its storytelling. It is the pinnacle of what I call a "psychologically heavy" game. Most games have a light almost comedic feeling about them even if their plot revolves around some really grim stuff like war and death. The Metro franchise on the other hand isn't just you playing a game it is a completely different experience. Whenever I get to play the franchise and especially exodus I get this sad and hopeless vibe bursting inside me, almost like I am a part of this broken, cold, dark and filled with misery world only to get a few glimmering moments of warmth when you talk and drink with Burbon and the traincart passenger, or when your brothers in arms and Anna await you after your lonely survival journey in the harsh outskirts of Moscow. Or when you are riding on the aurora celebrating Stepan's and Catja;s wedding. Then after all this they hit you right in the feels with this heartpumping experience of trying to escape from a literal hell only to fall short just for an inch and finally having to witness one of the most touching and amazing speeches given between a hero honoring another hero who passed away, redeeming the sacrifice that was made. I literally couldn't care less about its short length...this is what art should look like. To think that metro wasn't even nominated for 2019 GOTY just proves that not many are truly capable of appreciating the true meaning of what is beautiful in this industry, at least sekiro was indeed a beautiful game. Thank you 4A, for everything !
What's even sad is that, I replayed the main game and found out in the Autumn Chapter when I hit up the radio... there's a frequency there where you'll hear Kirill searching for his father, already (or he already is) on the verge of crying. It's heartbreaking.
Man i cried so hard both at the end of Artyom's campaing where Miller sacrifice his own green stuff for Artyom and now after playing The Two Colonels again... Khlebnikov was such a great character. I hate the fact that Metro Exodus is known by most people like: "that good looking graphical game used for ray tracing benchmark"... but the game itself is so much more than that and it has a beautiful story.
Not really. The dialogue on the train between the "Spartans" was cringe inducing and sounded like it was written by a 12 year old, as was the dialogue between the player and his wife. Also the endings were either super happy or super dreadful with nothing interesting or memorable, as is expected from video games.
@numalesoybea1348 You've got to understand the game is translated from Russian, and the translations are very inexact, causing some dialogue to sound blunt and childish. This is also a problem in the books, or really any translated Russian media. What sounds to us English speakers as "cringe" or "childish" might be a perfectly reasonable thing to say in Russian.
I feel so bad for that stalker he gets the map from He probably went through hell, no weapons, no support , no green stuff left and thought “ Oh , I finally found the maps Then on his way out he started to feel very tired, and he needed a break and leaned against the edge of the shelf and he started to dose off He didn’t wake up again
Everyone is praising Chlebnikov for finding the maps.But what about the guy that found them first and died with them in his arms right in the den of the Blind ones?
It's so sad yet so hopeful, so bitter yet so sweet, and end of something, someone, but the start of something, something truly great, the start of salvation, but we must be the architects of our own fate, truly a great game.
Tape in caspian one and intel there said otherwise. Also in the very beginning they had the chance to see where the safe zones where after the hansa radio jammers went offline. Parts of the world were still alive.
@@doyoumakeittotheclouddistr4132 but they thought the whole country was under enemy occupation as that is what millers superiors told him. Hence they went to the ARK. And then they realised it was all a lie and tried to find a clean place to settle
My thoughts too, whilst it may have been easier for Artyom and Miller to get to the medicine together without Kirill they wouldn’t have any green stuff and would’ve died before they got out of the city.
12:00 Most likely the best scene in the whole game series. You knew it was coming that way...the camera...him speaking alone. And there he sits, like he sat down weeks ago, his son calling him through the radio, hoping for a better live on a save place. But still, he saved a whole group and his son, without knowing.
Conqueror of all the chippies He’s much more three dimensional in the books - well, in the first one at least. Also, Last Light did a piss-poor job of showing him and Anna falling in love, so there’s that.
Conqueror of all the chippies To each their own, i thought the book was pretty interesting and atmospheric. Shame so much of it’s content was cut from the game.
Great DLC, and even greater final segment with the Blind Ones Lair. Felt my heart racing the entire way -- absolute hell! Thank you 4A for the amazing dlc and atmosphere!
This was heart taking both colonels who were and was trying to protect their family by all means even if that means theyll die only to see their family and loved ones make it out alive in a situation where it can only lead to 1 path
during the game we partially see Artyom's face but we never see the face of Khlebnikov. even at the end his face is covered with a gas mask. a hero without a face. that is what make this story unique. i like Khlebnikov's story more than main story line to be honest. excellent story telling...
I like how they tie in together. at first I read most of the diaries about the war that happened in the novosibirsk metro while artyom was rolling through it.
this is honestly one of the best reasons for a faceless protagonist. it makes the player imagine more in themselves of the character they're playing as, it becomes a really emotional and efficient way to get the player immersed in the story, and truly feel what it is like playing through the character. i just finished this dlc minutes ago, the campaign ending didn't make me cry as hard as this one.
I was disappointed that we didn't play as both colonels, one surviving with his son and another reliving his memories. Other than that, however, I thoroughly enjoyed it loved every second
Liam Matthews Well when you first enter the lives in metro area you find those piles of bodies going through the train car. In Two Colonels you play through that scene.
Same. When Kirill was talking about his and Miller's journey together as you are finishing the final drive, I thought for sure that you'd play as Miller.
Kind of eerie to see Kleb grab the map from the soldier who was holding on it and then for him to die and another soldier grabs it from him. Makes me wonder who that soldier was.
I hunted them with murderous fury and burn them with molotov. I got the good finale, so i was mercyfull trought the all game but mutants and blind one especially... No mercy for them
I just realized that Miller somehow managed to restart the generators of the base, when he entered the room the lights were on, the radioactive mist was gone and he wasn't wearing his mask. There most have been some way for the base to vent or filter out the air and was probably the main reason why Miller was able to get to the end and comeback while the others couldn't.
It could also be that by the time Miller arrived the blind gorillas might not stay there anymore/had migrated to other places so it was easier for him to get to the generator and turn it on without any worry of getting chased 🤔
@@dbfan199 Not exactly true, the shot was wasted, as we all know, the dark ones were there, and it was they who helped miller find artyom, had he survive, they would still be looking for a place.
@@sleepingrrandom2876 How is it not exactly true? the dark one's being involved doesn't really matter to the context of my statement. my statement was that if MIller used the shot he could possibly have survived. But artyom would have died. Artyom dies in the bad ending because his blood is too irradiated. and that's WITH both doses.
I honestly did not expect the emotional impact that this DLC/story would have on me. Really one of the most poignant moments in video games as a story telling medium for me.
The last chapter and this dlc was my very highlight. I enjoyed and loved the whole game but these too chapters pushed this game in one of the best story shooters I ever played. The third time I look the end of two colonels and need to hold back my tears again... Amazing piece of art
Somthing I’ve always noticed after playing TDC and TTC. Is that when Artyom and Mel’nik find Kirill he’s completely hostile. Spending three months on his own he’s scared. But the one thing that snaps him out of it is Mel’nik speaking to him as a soldier. “What’s your name soldier?” It’s obvious by their dialogue that Khlebnikov brought his son up as a military boy. (Constantly calling him private and when telling him to do his chores he orders it like a commander “eat that liver, without fail”) and his father was kirills whole world. So after spending months alone in the dead city, despairing in the fact that the man he loved and idolized was dead. The thing that snapped the boy out of it was another colonel speaking to him like his father did.
Spot on. I noticed that too when Miller said soldier Kirill finally stopped resisting and answered the question with full pride though his voice quivered a tiny bit. Cant imagine how he felt the whole time being alone in that tunnel
I just got the DLC and holy hell, the atmosphere of the two colonels literally made me want to cry. Like man...the guy you play as wanted to help people, but at the same time, do the right thing to make sure that everyone (or most people) would be okay, but doing his duty and thinking he could come out with his brothers he was let down, backstabbed. All the people you are with either turn on you or are brutally killed in such a backstabbing way, gas, gunshots, lies. And then even after all of that, he goes on to try to keep his son safe, and by any means necessary. And at the very last stretch...I fell asleep...and never woke up. Then, the two colonels meet, both with the same purpose, and eventually the same outcome, passing the torch on to help prevent the past from happening, the way Miller talked to Chlebnikov`s body was just, it left us all speechless. This game has such deep connections with emotions and is very much a psychological game too. There isnt such a huge basis on war and shooting aliens or run and gunning. It paints a perfect story of trying to survive in a broken world where everything is hopeless. And man, I think im gonna cry after finishing this DLC
Wait what about hunter? I know khan said he was MIA but at the same time no body was found so could he still be out there alive? and speaking oh Khan i wonder what happened to him
Zydel oh really? I never knew that kinda because I got the good ending first time but honestly It would have been nice to see him in a future DLC story and maybe find out what truly happened to hunter because I know for a fact he was alive in the novel and i know the games is an adaptation of the book but honestly it would be nice to know to conclusion of what actually happened to him
I played through this 4 years ago. Idk why but I had this itch to watch it again. I have goosebumps the story telling throughout the Metro series is unbelievable engaging.
Man i teard up when Khlebnikov said he had to rest for a bit !!! Such a legend & Miller you son of bish being a hero in the end !! Metro series will forever be a big part in my life !!! Like the Golden Wind .
DLC consisting of 2/3 hours of burning bugs and rioters with flamethrower. And developers still menage to put so many emotions and story to this. Farewell Colonel.
Oh my God. This is story' of his father kirril. I thought we play as Miller who protect his colonel son. And this why i cry about this scene, the reason Miller did'nt get serum shot because he don't want to lost his family artyom...😭 BLAYTIFUL 👍
@@XOLOVER125 But if he had, the Miller and Artyom would have died because they wouldn't have gotten the maps and it would have forced the rest of the group to carry on.
@@XOLOVER125 One sacrifice so that others may live. Even if it wasn't the intent, but it worked out ultimately, the colonel lives on, through his son, his lessons, his love, all of it, through him. Which is pretty much the theme of Exodus, legacy.
this game hits deeper then a spear to the chest. and to the devs that poured their blood sweat and tears into this i say thank you...now back to the 100th play through of sams story!!!
this metro and its dlc are the most emotional game ive ever played ive played metro since the beginning and read every book.. i just hope they take the time to make a movie and actual movie. love the game i sadly got the sad ending on the campaign it all depends on how u play out the game .. love it
It was confirmed a few months ago that Glukhovsky found a studio that he could entrust with creating a metro movie that would fit his vision for it. I believed he described it as they had similar goals.
The thought that he died there end left his son all alone in the metro... I can only imagine how bad it would be for Kiril if the crew didn't went to Novosibirsk.
@@caiuscostencu8886 yeah many conversations between them but sadly the last conversation ONLY included the son doing his weekly checkup on his father hoping for a response that he didn't know is dead
@@fahadm.2641 But he does finally accept that he is dead if you listen closely. Obviously he's trying to hold out hope, but if you listen, his final message ends with "...fine. over *and out* ". All his other messages he would only leave with over, expecting a response. That signifies he no longer was expecting a response.
I hope metro series wont end ever,like this is the most dramatic and inspiring, excellent story all blended together from the first title,with great if not the best grapich ive seen out there,but man this shit is so sad sometimes and deppresing seeing this 2 colonels dead,mybe could be more happy end but it is what it is,but i have so many qyestions,like what will happend with sams trip to home,what a bout aurora crew and litlle kid,what about that damn girl who had crush on my boi haha he said ill come back for you...damn man what an experience,will Artyom still continue to cruse around the world with his crew continuing Millers job,,holy shit
This game have a heavly strong story, which upscale this game same to The Last of Us 1. Beautiful graphics, strong plot story, and the so normal conversation, its just like u watch the combination of war + drama + family movie, damn. Two thumbs for the creator and the dev team who make such a great game.
Böyle oyun sonumu olur ulan ! Resmen ciğerimi bıraktım.Üstelik oyunun sadece bir DLC si, nasıl olur böyle muhteşem sahne.Bu son sahne resmen bazı oyunların gerçekten sanat eseri olduğunun kanıtıdır.
There Colonel Khlebnikov who got the maps from that unidentified stalker, who probably did the same thing Khlebnikov did "I finally found the maps, but I just need a breather" but imagine there were others who found the maps, from further and further inside, only to stop to get some rest and....never waking up, making another checkpoint for the next brave soul to find them and bringing them closer to the exit. idk maybe I'm thinking too much.
By far the best DLC ever released in a Game imo. Sams Story wasnt as good, or not as emotional as this one. Still love to play it over and over. And i loved the ending when i first played through, the room was kinda familiar, and then, the Gate opened and Miller showed up. So awesome.
I fell in love with this series when it started with Stalker Shadow of Tchernobyl (I know its not the same story but the work of the same dev team more or less)… Metro has a special place in my heart, those games are hardly underappreciated. Story, atmosphere, weapon and character designes…a masterpiece…
It's 2023 and I just bought the trilogy of this game... This game made me cry .... Damn.. the story is Oscar worthy . 2 dad's dying to save thier sons... No AAA games can touch games like this were they all depend on graphics and battle but don't tell a story where the player will get attached....
Honestly this is going to sound silly as hell but despite all of its faults, the metro series is honestly the biggest comfort for me. It’s helped me get through a lot of shit and gives me something to think and care about. I genuinely don’t think I’d be alive if it wasn’t for these games (and books), so here’s my cheesy way of saying thanks to it.
I swear.. I saw a dark one at the ending when he's dead and the shutter opens before Miller walks in. I didn't see it here, but I am on my phone. It happened in a flash and just teleported around, then vanished. Happened really fast. Maybe it was just a glitch..
Fun fact I finished exodus half year ago and I didn't want to pay to buy the DLCs, I reinstall the game and I saw that I actually own both DLCs 😅 I just finished the two colonels and it was amazing!
After completing the main game and knowing what exactly happened at the Metro station, having the DLC started with everything still under control and have to play through the destructive event that we read through at the main game, it is just so depressing.. The ending is just so sad, but it is also a relief in a way, atleast Khlebnikov managed to find the map and indirectly saved Kirill.
Not a single person noticed and talk about that there's a hairless Blind One here who ordered the fur ones around and also attacked Klebnikov at the end.
Let's all hope none of us have to see the world like this. Excluding all the mutants and stuff in the story, nuclear war is a very real possibility and it would permanently change the world for the worst.

There most have been some way for the base to vent or filter out the air and was probably the main reason why Miller was able to get to the end and comeback while the others couldn't.
Nah, he's just the toughest S O B in all of russia
Khlebnikov dealt with a lot of mutants. Most likely, Miller didn't encounter that much resistance on his way down.
If you see the easter egg
Both Miller and Artyom probably gets help from the Dark Ones
It could also be that by the time Miller arrived the blind gorillas might not stay there anymore/had migrated to other places so it was easier for him to get to the generator and turn it on without any worry of getting chased 🤔
I couldnt stop my tears.. Had he taken the shot earlier, he could have survived.. heart touching n saddening at the same time
Indeed!
he could have survived... but artyom would have died.
@@dbfan199 Not exactly true, the shot was wasted, as we all know, the dark ones were there, and it was they who helped miller find artyom, had he survive, they would still be looking for a place.
@@sleepingrrandom2876 How is it not exactly true?
the dark one's being involved doesn't really matter to the context of my statement.
my statement was that if MIller used the shot he could possibly have survived. But artyom would have died.
Artyom dies in the bad ending because his blood is too irradiated. and that's WITH both doses.
I thought you meant that IF Chlebnikov took the shot artyom would end up dead, I'm retarded.@@dbfan199
Just finished Metro yesterday and today I finished this DLC. It made me cry again. Truly a masterpiece
The cinematography in this dlc is really great. Especially the transition between slava and miller, very smooth and satisfying
I honestly did not expect the emotional impact that this DLC/story would have on me. Really one of the most poignant moments in video games as a story telling medium for me.
The last chapter and this dlc was my very highlight. I enjoyed and loved the whole game but these too chapters pushed this game in one of the best story shooters I ever played. The third time I look the end of two colonels and need to hold back my tears again... Amazing piece of art
Somthing I’ve always noticed after playing TDC and TTC. Is that when Artyom and Mel’nik find Kirill he’s completely hostile. Spending three months on his own he’s scared. But the one thing that snaps him out of it is Mel’nik speaking to him as a soldier. “What’s your name soldier?” It’s obvious by their dialogue that Khlebnikov brought his son up as a military boy. (Constantly calling him private and when telling him to do his chores he orders it like a commander “eat that liver, without fail”) and his father was kirills whole world. So after spending months alone in the dead city, despairing in the fact that the man he loved and idolized was dead. The thing that snapped the boy out of it was another colonel speaking to him like his father did.
Spot on. I noticed that too when Miller said soldier Kirill finally stopped resisting and answered the question with full pride though his voice quivered a tiny bit. Cant imagine how he felt the whole time being alone in that tunnel
I just got the DLC and holy hell, the atmosphere of the two colonels literally made me want to cry. Like man...the guy you play as wanted to help people, but at the same time, do the right thing to make sure that everyone (or most people) would be okay, but doing his duty and thinking he could come out with his brothers he was let down, backstabbed. All the people you are with either turn on you or are brutally killed in such a backstabbing way, gas, gunshots, lies.
And then even after all of that, he goes on to try to keep his son safe, and by any means necessary. And at the very last stretch...I fell asleep...and never woke up.
Then, the two colonels meet, both with the same purpose, and eventually the same outcome, passing the torch on to help prevent the past from happening, the way Miller talked to Chlebnikov`s body was just, it left us all speechless. This game has such deep connections with emotions and is very much a psychological game too. There isnt such a huge basis on war and shooting aliens or run and gunning. It paints a perfect story of trying to survive in a broken world where everything is hopeless. And man, I think im gonna cry after finishing this DLC
8:09 sad time begins
9:34 sad time ends, cry time begins.
That dlc was so damn beautiful and sad
not everyone in metro games have the luck of artyom rip colonel
It broke my heart that i was asleep in the wheel and he died by my side and i couldn't do anything...
@@Artyom.2033
you did it you saved anna that what the colonel want it in the first place
Wait what about hunter? I know khan said he was MIA but at the same time no body was found so could he still be out there alive? and speaking oh Khan i wonder what happened to him
@@jackwoody2382 if you get the bad ending. You will met with him at the train which only dead people rides on it. Which means, hes died.
Zydel oh really? I never knew that kinda because I got the good ending first time but honestly It would have been nice to see him in a future DLC story and maybe find out what truly happened to hunter because I know for a fact he was alive in the novel and i know the games is an adaptation of the book but honestly it would be nice to know to conclusion of what actually happened to him
Where legends cried
RIP Khlebnikov
, you were a good comrade.
I played through this 4 years ago. Idk why but I had this itch to watch it again. I have goosebumps the story telling throughout the Metro series is unbelievable engaging.
Loved the dlc. Very story driven and immersive.
Man i teard up when Khlebnikov said he had to rest for a bit !!! Such a legend & Miller you son of bish being a hero in the end !! Metro series will forever be a big part in my life !!! Like the Golden Wind .
never in my life time have I ever cried because of a story, but this rule was broken today.
DLC consisting of 2/3 hours of burning bugs and rioters with flamethrower.
And developers still menage to put so many emotions and story to this.
Farewell Colonel.
Oh my God. This is story' of his father kirril. I thought we play as Miller who protect his colonel son. And this why i cry about this scene, the reason Miller did'nt get serum shot because he don't want to lost his family artyom...😭
BLAYTIFUL 👍
Best dlc so far for this game, can't wait for Sam's dlc later on
Trust me it was great
Im so tired... 😭
Fuck those blind ones !!!! He was so close to surviving
@@XOLOVER125 But if he had, the Miller and Artyom would have died because they wouldn't have gotten the maps and it would have forced the rest of the group to carry on.
@@combinecommando001 Ohhhhhh yeah, you're right there, I forgot about that
@@XOLOVER125 One sacrifice so that others may live. Even if it wasn't the intent, but it worked out ultimately, the colonel lives on, through his son, his lessons, his love, all of it, through him. Which is pretty much the theme of Exodus, legacy.
@@XOLOVER125 Nah. He didn`t. Radiation level in that bunker much stronger than in Novosibirsk surface.
this game hits deeper then a spear to the chest. and to the devs that poured their blood sweat and tears into this i say thank you...now back to the 100th play through of sams story!!!
Well, this dlc made the whole story of Exodus even more touching and I almost cried at the end.. well, not almost, I cried.
this metro and its dlc are the most emotional game ive ever played ive played metro since the beginning and read every book.. i just hope they take the time to make a movie and actual movie.
love the game i sadly got the sad ending on the campaign it all depends on how u play out the game .. love it
It was confirmed a few months ago that Glukhovsky found a studio that he could entrust with creating a metro movie that would fit his vision for it. I believed he described it as they had similar goals.
It will be pretty hard smitri does not like unprofesionals or profesionals that have adiferent style. thats why the chose 4A in the first place
Some of the most excellent story telling ever. That ending, wow.
The thought that he died there end left his son all alone in the metro... I can only imagine how bad it would be for Kiril if the crew didn't went to Novosibirsk.
When you go on the train, at the end and listen to the radio, you can catch the conversation Khlebnikov and Cyril. Pine Pine I alder how do you hear?
really?
@@caiuscostencu8886 yeah many conversations between them but sadly the last conversation ONLY included the son doing his weekly checkup on his father hoping for a response that he didn't know is dead
@@fahadm.2641 Thanks a lot,wish I would've noticed them!
@@fahadm.2641 But he does finally accept that he is dead if you listen closely. Obviously he's trying to hold out hope, but if you listen, his final message ends with "...fine. over *and out* ". All his other messages he would only leave with over, expecting a response. That signifies he no longer was expecting a response.
I hope metro series wont end ever,like this is the most dramatic and inspiring, excellent story all blended together from the first title,with great if not the best grapich ive seen out there,but man this shit is so sad sometimes and deppresing seeing this 2 colonels dead,mybe could be more happy end but it is what it is,but i have so many qyestions,like what will happend with sams trip to home,what a bout aurora crew and litlle kid,what about that damn girl who had crush on my boi haha he said ill come back for you...damn man what an experience,will Artyom still continue to cruse around the world with his crew continuing Millers job,,holy shit
That might get answered in the next game
I ain't crying it's just raining from my eyes ok
Ican't tell how much i love this series , and this dlc
This game have a heavly strong story, which upscale this game same to The Last of Us 1. Beautiful graphics, strong plot story, and the so normal conversation, its just like u watch the combination of war + drama + family movie, damn. Two thumbs for the creator and the dev team who make such a great game.
the ending is one if not the best of all video games or dlcs ive ever seen. this dlc is UNDERRATED SO MUCH
This ending touched my heart god damn I can’t wait for the next dlc
😞 now we know the truth he didn’t make it but I salute to him for finding the maps
*Miller, over and out*
I cried when I finished the two colonels it was such good gameplay and story
This 13:00 made my mouth wide open and tears suddenly coming out. That was really shocking truth for me.
“Hold on, son.” -Miller, 2035
Böyle oyun sonumu olur ulan ! Resmen ciğerimi bıraktım.Üstelik oyunun sadece bir DLC si, nasıl olur böyle muhteşem sahne.Bu son sahne resmen bazı oyunların gerçekten sanat eseri olduğunun kanıtıdır.
Sin sacrificio no hay victoria
Descansa en paz camarada Miller
1:25 killed me 😭😭😭.
gato cat yeah then he puts the radio back and you know he’s not coming back out ;(
gato cat you can hear Kirill talking on the radio onboard the Aurora using the ham radio
With Race Against Fate playing
Easily one of if not the best stories in a game I've ever played. Shit would make a grown man cry
The best dlc i ever played cant wait for anothe dlc
Looks like i will never found game like this.. metro is such an emotional game
Bro this is so sad as hell, the things our fathers would do
"I love you son" God damn, I knew it was almost over 😭😭
Those Russians!!!! and their hard, real life, philosophical literature and art!!!! Aaaahhhh I love and hate it at the same time!!!!
There Colonel Khlebnikov who got the maps from that unidentified stalker, who probably did the same thing Khlebnikov did "I finally found the maps, but I just need a breather" but imagine there were others who found the maps, from further and further inside, only to stop to get some rest and....never waking up, making another checkpoint for the next brave soul to find them and bringing them closer to the exit. idk maybe I'm thinking too much.
The salute says it all. Nothing but respect for this game
"The Blind ones are scary!"
Me who played the original metro 2033, redux, and played metro lastlight polis DLC: u new here?
We litteraly beat giant spider and an giant schrimp
Especially those damned lurkers and librarians
I'm dissatisfied with the lack of librarians in this game. Them mfs were scary.
@@andypozuelos1204 yeah but i think the new gorrila is pretty cool, and it makes sense since they are not in Moscow
@@andypozuelos1204 idk, Libarians always felt way to easy to ''counter''. Just stare at them and they will walk into their holes.
We knew, that Chlebnikov died but... It was just sad to see it, see how proud father died because of shitty timing...
By far the best DLC ever released in a Game imo.
Sams Story wasnt as good, or not as emotional as this one.
Still love to play it over and over.
And i loved the ending when i first played through, the room was kinda familiar, and then, the Gate opened and Miller showed up.
So awesome.
Cried for the main game finale (both good and bad endings) and cried for this finale, damn, love this game
I fell in love with this series when it started with Stalker Shadow of Tchernobyl (I know its not the same story but the work of the same dev team more or less)… Metro has a special place in my heart, those games are hardly underappreciated. Story, atmosphere, weapon and character designes…a masterpiece…
It's 2023 and I just bought the trilogy of this game... This game made me cry .... Damn.. the story is Oscar worthy . 2 dad's dying to save thier sons... No AAA games can touch games like this were they all depend on graphics and battle but don't tell a story where the player will get attached....
God, this even makes the Unbreakable Patches shed a tear..two fathers risking it all to save the ones they loved.
Honestly this is going to sound silly as hell but despite all of its faults, the metro series is honestly the biggest comfort for me. It’s helped me get through a lot of shit and gives me something to think and care about. I genuinely don’t think I’d be alive if it wasn’t for these games (and books), so here’s my cheesy way of saying thanks to it.
Khlebnikov is the only character to whom the miller has truly spoken.
i was clapping and smiling and shaking my head at the ending. bravo. just bravo
the heartbeat in this was really weird it felt like my blood was actually pumping through my ears.
*Salute*
Who else saluted at the screen?
11:57 I almost cried when we see Klebnikov for the first time...
I just finished the two Colonel's and dang its sad 😢 but such a good story. The entire Metro series and the books are some of my favorite stories.
This DLC is a masterpiece
I swear.. I saw a dark one at the ending when he's dead and the shutter opens before Miller walks in. I didn't see it here, but I am on my phone. It happened in a flash and just teleported around, then vanished. Happened really fast. Maybe it was just a glitch..
Always great video 👍🔥
I haven't never cried to video game Until now
Girls - I can't believe he didn't cry at the titanic do men even have feelings
Boys - 11:35
Fun fact I finished exodus half year ago and I didn't want to pay to buy the DLCs, I reinstall the game and I saw that I actually own both DLCs 😅 I just finished the two colonels and it was amazing!
Masterpiece
After completing the main game and knowing what exactly happened at the Metro station, having the DLC started with everything still under control and have to play through the destructive event that we read through at the main game, it is just so depressing..
The ending is just so sad, but it is also a relief in a way, atleast Khlebnikov managed to find the map and indirectly saved Kirill.
8:43 me trying my best to stay awake in class when im extremely tired
Not a single person noticed and talk about that there's a hairless Blind One here who ordered the fur ones around and also attacked Klebnikov at the end.
Made me tear up a bit....
I just finished it and wanted to watch
It again
Rest in piece comrade...
🤯😭😭😭😭🤧🤧🤧
Мне так грустно читать все комментарии, будто все мы люди, все все понимаем, но так далеки в реальном мире от понимания. Всем мир, война это зло.
Let's all hope none of us have to see the world like this. Excluding all the mutants and stuff in the story, nuclear war is a very real possibility and it would permanently change the world for the worst.
I am 26 years old and I cried at the end
