Is Metro 2033 the SCARIEST game in the world or am I just a pussy? - General

[QUOTE=RaptorBlackz;35554822]I played ranger hardcore on my first try, Librarians drop when you hit them in the face with a throwing knife.[/QUOTE] The downside is that you also drop if they even get remotely close to you

I remember just sneaking past these guys. You seem too determined on having to kill them to get past them.

[QUOTE=soderholm13;35554832]The downside is that you also drop if they even get remotely close to you[/QUOTE] Never gave them the chance really. I shat myself as one was charging at me and i had only 1 knife left, Lucky throw clipped his ankle and dropped him...I called it my lucky knife and used it to finish the whole librarian stage using 1 throwing knife.

Damn It would have been nice knowing I could just stare at them, as soon as I saw one of those fuckers he got raped with bullets. [editline]13th April 2012[/editline] Discovered that my rapid fire key on my mouse charges the torch instantly.

The Librarians are mostly blind and go mostly by sound, so you know. Stealth is the best way to avoid them.

[QUOTE=Satane;35555962]wow is everyone playing on hard or something? I remember killing everything that moved with ease. except the russian silo, that was hard and i kept running out of ammo.[/QUOTE] Actually the harder the difficulty the easier it is to kill enemys.

I loved Metro, although I never really found it to be scary in the way that, say, Amnesia was. For me, Metro was terrifying because of the setting and how immersive it was. Definitely one of my most favorite games. Also, if anyone else here really liked the game, I would recommend picking up the novel on Amazon. The part with the Librarians is terrifying.

This is the only game in that past 3 or 4 years that actually kept me wanting more.

[QUOTE=Mr Derp;35554730]I did a full Let's Play / Playthrough on Amnesia... :( Was much scarier than this. Doing Amnesia Justine tomorrow.[/QUOTE] go play [URL="http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=uiHQN1q8ln4"]SCP-087[/URL] :)

Man i beat this game 5 times, librarians, were easy, even on ranger hardcore. i just took a duplet (double barrel shotgun) and like 100 shells, you just load like 3 sets of the double shots into a librarian, and they're dead, easy as that.

I have seen people play on consoles taking 700 hits on hardcore. But when I play normal on PC I get fucked after 3 shots.

I just happened to have one of those heavy/rapid-fire/whatever shotguns when I reached the library. Librarian's weren't a problem for me.

I would love a Metro open-world game where everything plays the same, except you can go anywhere in the tunnel system (if you can survive, that is).

only 1 word LMFAO

the thing with librarians is that you need to stare them dead in the eye, and they won't attack. if you turn away, they'll come at you at the blink of an eye.

If I recall correctly, aren't the black librarians afraid of light? I think they could be stunned by it if you turn on your flashlight. That would explain why it wouldn't enter the room with the light on and why it ran off when you turned on your light.

Not as scary as UNREAL GOLD singleplayer, I still get the chills

[QUOTE=Tucan Sam;35557466]Not as scary as UNREAL GOLD singleplayer, I still get the chills[/QUOTE] That's hardly scary :v:

This game kicks so much ass. IGN gave this a 6.9. I know IGN really isn't credible at all but it still pisses me the FUCK off when they gives great games bad scores. It depresses me when they have so much say in how many sales a game gets despite them being borderline retarded.

[QUOTE=Clementine;35558492]How could they even justify a 6.9?[/QUOTE] I'm not sure. Glitches and bugs (that were few and far between for him, might I add) seemed to be the only thing that he could come up with that was an actual complaint. It's obvious he wanted it to be like FO3 from the start; open world, exploration, things are clearly spelled out for you, etc. then when things started to be different he got frustrated. Basically, he wanted things to be bad from the start and he was nitpicking all the way through because of it.

When this game out I really wanted it but couldn't get it because I had a PS3 and an old piece of shit PC. Now I have an Xbox but can't buy the game anywhere and a PC that still probably can't run it.

This was creepy at best, but holy damn did it do some good creepy segments. Dem spooky ghosts.

Just throw all of them in their face and they are usually dead before they can reach you. The best thing? You can collect the knives back and you didn't lose any ammo.

[QUOTE=Satane;35558757]its ign...... [IMG]http://i.imgur.com/2TQQk.jpg[/IMG] they give 9.5 to a game that should by all rights get 3.8[/QUOTE] mw2 was a 5 for me, great fun, unbalance beyond all fuck, excessively scripted, and all that jazz people who love it don't know how to actually review anything. Metro 2033 for me is an EASY 9/10, amazing story, amazing game play, while very corridor and has glitches, it was pretty fun. I'm a lover of post-apocalypse games and it had a lot of mechanics in game play I liked.

Goddamn, I was literally just about to start a Metro 2033 Let's Play.
