…Isn’t that intentional? Hence why the game has a flashlight and night vision goggles?
I played through Last Light again recently and forgot how much I loved the series, so when I found out about this, I preordered it. $25 is a small price to pay for two awesome games that have better optimization (at least 2033 does, for sure, I haven’t played LL Redux yet). I’m enjoying 2033 a lot more than I did before, especially because I usually get a constant 60 fps unless shit gets REALLY busy on screen. It’s not as atmospheric, in certain ways, sure, but it by no means makes it a bad game. The gunplay is LL level, as in WAY better than in the original 2033, plus being able to buy attachments and customize your weapons like in LL is a welcome addition, imo. Better than having to randomly happen upon a weapon with an extended barrel or a silencer.
Also if you don’t want to get the Last Light Redux because you don’t want to rebuy a game you’ve only had for a year, you can just buy 2033 redux, if you’re on PC.
Apparently the redux version of Metro 2033 was missing many graphical effects and detail in comparison to the original, but they re-added it with a patch?
Pretty sure some are still missing despite the patch.
A REDUX release to improve things, and it’s missing a major visual feature that was IN the original… Absolutely, incredibly sad.
“August 28, 2014 - Metro Redux – First Update Adds Volumetric Lights Exclusively To The PC Version”
“… the recently released Metro: Redux was lacking almost all volumetric lights that were present in the original version of Metro 2033. Today, 4A Games and Deep Silver released a 1.2GB patch for the PC version of Metro: Redux that brings a number of them back to the game.”
“… though there are still places in which volumetric lights have not been added/used.”, simply ludicrous.
is it?
YUP.
Own both versions and have played through both. Metro redux is a big change from the original all the features of LL used to good effect. Great buy for $12.00
