I finished the game last night and I feel like because I didn’t get the “good” ending I wasted my time playing. I was mad cause despite all my effort to try and get the good ending I still failed. I feel like the game expects way too much of you in terms of exploration and it ends up ruining the fun and it becomes tedious. I genuinely don’t know how the game expects you to get the good ending without looking it up.

Edit: I was super high when I first wrote this. and rereading it I feel like I didn’t really express love for the game, I think metro exodus is easily one of the best games I’ve played in recent years, the game looked absolutely stunning on my Xbox Series X. I’ve played all of the other games I love the series I even have the books. I was and still am a little sour towards my personal experience with metro Exodus because believe me I explored every inch of the Caspian Sea and I didn’t kill a single slave the entire time, I got the portrait, and I’m pretty sure I didn’t kill Saul or whatever.
