Original 2033 and Last Light removed from Steam store?

[RdJokr]

Just noticed this today, but I can't find the store pages for both the original Metro games anymore. Only the Redux versions are there.

I believe it's less Steam and more the publisher/developer of the game specifically requesting that action be taken.

Doesn't matter it's a dumb decision period.

You can still buy the og games on humblebundle. Especially the fact that they are sometimes on sale.

Very sad that they took the original from the store - some of my friends wanted it as a gift on New Year - guess I'll gift them with Fallout: New Vegas instead.

Yes. Bought some of the big bundles from there, including the Origin and 2K bundles. Works fine, no problem.

Be real. Steam has nothing to do with this

To me it doesn't matter who's decision it was, it was ♥♥♥♥♥♥♥ stupid. This is isn't the first time I have seen games taken off of Steam. Everything is corporate monopoly these days.

Humble still has Mertro last night (original), but 2033 doesn't appear to still be there. :-(

bought both yesterday on humblebundle and downloaded. Now I just need to get Metro 2033 to stop crashing on startup!!!

whata damn shame mostly for ppl who never played it, really because original 2033 is so much atmospheric than bs redux

Hmm, first time i ever went to install and play this game, and i realised, the store page for it was gone. I wanted to read up on info. So, i have it now downloading, even though its no longer sold?

Exactly what happened here?

Is the game still going to work once it installs (Metro 2033. Nothing else, as far as i can tell. Bought this before it was apparently removed, still havent played it.)?

Or do I have to now buy another game, to play a game i bought already?

Sorry, never seen this happen before with any of my games. Any info would be great.

The game's removed from the Steam store, not Steam as a whole. Your game'll still work, and anyone with copies in their inventory can still trade/gift them.

As such, you have absolutely nothing to worry about.

It's back, but look at the price...

They're basically forcing you to buy two games... Plus, pre-purchase? What the damn hell?
