Anna ruined the Metro Exodus for me

[xXxmass]

Am really into Metro's story, played 2033 and was was interested in playing the next game, in Last Light we all met Anna, and since the first mission, where she abandons you in that field with the nazis and provides no sniper support, I stared hating her, even more, when we met again in the church nad she didnt even apolagize and mocked the protagonist. A proper c#nt I would call her, the fact Artyom had to go after her when she was obducted by Lesnitsky made me even more furious,. So now you get an idea to why I dislike her as a character. And in Metro Exodus its all about Artyom and her, about a character i dont care about i honesly got my hopes you that she will shortly die. but she didnt, i just wanted to get her out of my way, but she would keep appearing throughout the game. And after that i have quit playing returned the PS4 alng with the metro games to my friend who borrowed them to me and dont plan on getting it back to complete Exodus :D . So this discussion is just for me to start a convo on this topic, its not that i want to complain but i want to hear your thoughts about this. What do you think? :)

She didn't abandon you. In her bonus mission she fights through over a dozen Reich soldiers to save you but doesn't get their in time.

AS for her as a character: she underdeveloped in Last Light but Exodus handled her way better.

That is your problem,she is a great character, she didnt abandon Artyom, she saved him many times.

Go play the LL Anna mission and read the book. She is quite an interesting character actually.

I have never cared about a video game character more than Anna in Exodus. Also she didn't leave Artyom stranded, she tried to save him but couldn't.

She is a great character and i adore her.

Saved him many times? Like when? Maybe in exodus.

Damn I skipped the DLC since most of them didnt add anything to the story so i skipped Anna+s story as well thinking it doesnt mean andthing to the main story.

I still dont like her. From the moment we meet her in last light she's a major Cword and it's hilarious because being the player I'm practically a GOD. No but seriously even in lore perspective she's talking down to you even tho you're a complete badass and above her.

She's not like that in Exodus.

She's just Mocking in Last Light. Thinking Artyom isn't such a big deal until later when she sees him in action. She tried to save him in the DLC mission but couldn't reach him in time. A shame so many people make such quick conclusions just based on what they see in the main game. To be fair the script of the main game doesn't lend itself much leeway because we, the player, see everything from the pov of Artyom and can't see what Anna is doing and thinking.

I thought she does apologize in the church, but not as part of a mandatory interaction. Been a while since I played but can't you go back & talk to everyone in the church before moving on? Or is it a message she leaves at the start of the next chapter?

In regard to Metro Exodus, I find her talented, charming & certainly competent. As you remember at the end of Caspian, when fighting the Baron, she says to Artyom "your head is in the way" with her sniper laser dot on the Baron's head. An instant later she nails him.

Second, she reminds you to "not to go shooting first" which is a THEME in the game (good ending) playing stealth. I played VOLGA and TIAGA without killing anyone (and only a few knockouts). Even in the Dead City level, you can avoid most monster gorillas (BLIND) by sneaking around & throwing tin cans. The exceptions are the one grabbing you on the ladder & and the ending.

Third, keep in mind the MIDDLE-OF-THE-ROAD marketing aspect of this game. Extremes (left & right) will HATE this game - and any forum I visit have narcissists who will vomit all over most everyone's thread, drawing ATTENTION to themselves and side with the worst villain of the game to get the attention they crave (bad childhood). Too bad Steam doesn't have an IGNORE feature. For the rest of us: consider the psychological aspects that appeals to most players (who are guys in their mid-20s). Loyal & pretty wife. 6-year old Nastya who stole my heart. Then save-the-damsel-in-distress. So we are SUPER heroes -- knight in shining armor!
