BenKii: <span class="bold">PaterAlf</span> for Metro: Last Light Redux
PaterAlf: Thank you for the nomination. I have one question though:
Metro: Last Light Redux is the second game in the series. Does it make sense to play it without having played the first one? Or will I miss too much of the story? If that's the case I would rather decline the game and leave it for someone who can completely enjoy it.
From what I've gathered myself (not played, but looked stuff up, just a little as to not spoil myself) there is a continuation of the overall "world story" and developments and a growing of the atmosphere and locations that make progressive sense when played in order. But I'm not sure how much the individual narrative is affected, but for me, I'm completely anal about playing series in order, even if just for the littlest of things that enhance the games but aren't huge plot-line continuations. To me, these are definitely games that should be played in order, but I can't attest to the importance of it or how much it might matter to you, obviously someone who has played both will have more input.
If I had not gotten Last Light via a code drop in another thread not even 2 weeks ago, I'd have definitely requested 2033 from here (I could definitely find use for a "medium-high" WL delineation, adalia!), as I'm very excited to play these games, but must do so in order!
