Metro: Last Light Redux tagged as 'Open World '

[Morior Invictus]

As the title suggests, many people say this game is linear, but when I check tags applied to the game one of them is Open World.

Is this correct? I understand these tags are user defined but this seems misleading for fans of the more open S.T.A.L.K.E.R franchise who are looking for something similar.

It is not an open world. And what people say is true, the game is linear. If it were an open world, you would have more freedom when it comes to exploring. Therefore, it is linear.

The Open World tag is misleading. I've reported it, but it will stay there unless more people do also.

This is no where near openworld.

Metro 2033 & last Light are both interactive, story driven games in the conventional sense ofetn classified as "linear' as stated previously by others. While you are playing a section/segment in the game you can snoop around moving freely within that area possibly "free roam", but once again not open world. Open world would be awsome for the Metro series --why I play S.T.A.L.K.E.R. (stalker is also story driven, but it's open world).

It will not be open word, but each level will have a big sandbox like map.

Yeah not really open world. Just hubs and stuff like deus ex where its semi open
