how many main games are there?

[Geek Ultima]

please help. im planning to buy the series, but im confused. in wikipedia, it says there are 4 main games (2033, last light, redux, exodus), but the bundle series here only shows 3 games.

also, is this on the same league as fallout 3/4 and stalker series? recently im seeing these post-apocalyptic fps immersive games

Metro 2033 Redux, Last Light and Exodus are the Games you need. Metro Redux is the newer and more polished Version of 2033. I never really played Fallout/Stalker so i cant say if its on the same league or not.

For me? 100% I'm currently replaying the Trilogy on the Hardest Difficulty and its alot of Fun. Hell, i even bought the Books. Can only recommend. 80-90% off right now is a no-brainer i tell you.

Back in the days, the developers of 4A Games were working on Stalker: Shadow of Chernobyl too. But they left GSC Game World after differences and created their own studio.

There are four Metro titles in total. One VR - Metro Awakening, from a different developer, and the three titles you already mentioned. There are also discussions on Reddit about the first two original Metro games and their Redux versions regarding their difference.

Other than being post apocalypse, having mutants and human factions at war ... Metro does not share much with Fallout at all in terms of gameplay, narrative or tone. You play the same person across all the games interacting with the same characters in an ongoing story, It's 100% serious while Fallout is self aware absurd.

And as has been said already, Metro was made by the same people that made Stalker and so yes, there is a lot of similarities even though it is a linear point a to be 'shooter', Exodus is the only game in the series which actually has open world exploration and imho it's about as close to Stalker as the series has ever been.

I'm not a fan of Fallout so for me personally, Metro is better, but Stalker vs Metro is an interesting question that I don't really have an answer for, I play both but for different reasons.

Never played stalker but I will be playing Stalker 2. As far as Fallout and metro they don't compare. Metro is a linear SP first person shooter that you will be done with in less than 30 hours. Fallout games are open world RPGs that have hundreds of hours of content. I enjoy both but if I had to choose between Fallout or Metro the choice is very easily Fallout.

thanks for the clarification bro. i thought metro was an open world game

as has been said, there are three games Metro 2033, Metro Last Light, Metro Exodus (the "Redux" versions of Metro 2033 and Metro Last Light are the remaster of the first two games).
i loooove this series so much. i'm currently on my like third or 4th playthrough through all of them. i love tight, creative, linear fps. the atmosphere is top notch. story/writing are in my opinion irrelevant and i wouldnt focus on that. its all about the experience.

I had some fun playing some of the older STALKER games with mods. Here's hoping that STALKER 2 plays nice enough with modders so that we can get a ton of neat extra content for STALKER 2 just like we did with the original 3.

Oh yeah the METRO games are linear with a lot of flavor, but if you are comparing metro to Fallouts 3, NV, 4 the fallouts give you a much more massive map. Metro does a ton of things better and now that i'm thinking about it any recent Fallout game that had the "metro" feel in terms of combat and exploration would be out of this world. It's a shame we can't get a game that feels as tight at Metro Exodus but has the RPG stuff and world of Fallout NV or 4. If it does exist please let me know. Sounds dope.

2033 is completely linear, never played Last Light and Exodus is like.... Mini open world? You travel to new areas and those areas are open world but you can't go back to old areas or skip to new without following the story and they aren't massive or anything. I would skip 2033 unless Redux improved the combat. Exodus's combat is good and you don't need to play the old ones to understand the story.
