It's the year 2035, starting off postapocalyptic Moscow, Russian Federation. Artyom settles for the road to the inhabbitable lands alongside his much beloved wife, Anna. During the trip, they encounter a train in which they meet Anna's father, more commonly known as Colonel Miller, Russian Special Forces. As Miller owned the Aurora, the train, they stop in multiple locations to gather all the supplies they need to reach Vladivostok, on the Transiberian Railway Road, by train, including The Volga River, the shores of The Caspian Sea, the Taiga in lower Siberia, and in the end, Novosibirsk. That's where their trip takes a twist of a sadistic fate (that's no need to know for now, as you're reading this review). On their way from Novosibirsk to Vladivostok, Artyom and Anna accomplish their goal, and live a happy life with no barriers along the way.

• Graphics are over the next level. Incredible.
  
• The brand-new 'Photo Mode' makes it quicker for the gamer to fall in love with the game, giving him the opportunity to take pics in the game and have memories, or maybe even real-life inspiration.
  
• The story, as seen above, is strict and linear, till the end. Be careful, if you choose to be bloody then you'll regret, but if you choose to be peaceful, then you'll celebrate.
  
• All the in-game interactions connects the player to the game and makes him feel as he actually is Artyom, the protagonist. It actually creates stranger ties between the gamer and Artyom, greatly done!
  
• The environment, no more words. See it yourself in my pictures of Metro: Exodus (with the location attached between paranthesis).
  
• The modern so-said "open world" system that's inducted in the game makes it cooler for the player to interact with absolutely ALL the characters. Even if the train travels for too long without you touching the map, you'll arrive in the desired location (will take A LOT OF TIME, but it's worth it, seeing the entire Russian Federation and nature's beauty).
  
• Guns are as usual as in 'Last Light: Redux' or '2033: Redux', but remastered and with a cool new option: attachments. You can now customize your guns to your own preferences, as long as you own the bodies of the weapons, the blueprints and the necessary materials.
  
• Artyom's quotes between the missions are motivating you to play, to look for a purpose of life. This game's absolutely awesome.

• Same problem as in 'Last Light: Redux' - low ammount of ammunition. You have to craft it yourself and make every shot count, otherwise you're pretty much... dead.
  
• The Caspian campaign comes up with 'The Car', an old van which instead of a wheel has a bicycle bar (which I LOVE, it's lovely). But if it happens for me to open up the map and then close it while driving, it glitches and moves my camera way higher as I can't see sh*t.
  
• In the Taiga, it takes forever to find that general's mansion, had to search it throughout youtube to find it. Wasted 1 hour at least on just searching for it.
