Been waiting for a good FPS game, so it is.

By looking at the recommended specs, it must be challenging for the PC hardware.
Ranking somewhere near Recommended Specs. I hope my 580 would run it well on custom settings.

These specs looks like crysis back in 2007 yet graphically it doesn't look like a big of a leap crysis was in 2007. I mean come on? Gtx 1060 sits between the minimum and recommend requirements? GTX 1070 for high settings (not even ultra!) On frikkin 1080p?!? Is this a joke? [MENTION=8386]JANARIOO[/MENTION] thoughts?

Though redundant, I think their regional pricing offsets the decision to go with Denuvo nicely :p

It looks like we pre ordered the game at the right time :p

Not sure if Epic Games Store has as competitive regional pricing right now as Steam does.

Metro Exodus for PC skipping Steam for Epic Games store
(Deep Silver and Epic said those who have already preordered Metro Exodus through Steam or other digital storefronts will be able to download and play the game as they had expected.)

It's one thing to get more revenue through Epic store but taking it off Steam is a douche move by both Epic and Deep Silver.
I can only get a Steam wallet refund since I pre ordered it long time ago. Im considering ditching the Gold edition and settling for the base game only.

Steam's page now shows this message on the Exodus page:

Also worth noting the Epic Games Store is selling the game for $49.99 in the US, $10 less than Steam.

Notice:
Later today, sales of Metro Exodus will be discontinued on Steam due to a publisher decision to make the game exclusive to another PC store.

The developer and publisher have assured us that all prior sales of the game on Steam will be fulfilled on Steam, and Steam owners will be able to access the game and any future updates or DLC through Steam.

We think the decision to remove the game is unfair to Steam customers, especially after a long pre-sale period. We apologize to Steam customers that were expecting it to be available for sale through the February 15th release date, but we were only recently informed of the decision and given limited time to let everyone know.

At least if you pre ordered on Steam, you will also be able to get future expansions and DLC on steam too:

edit 2: Apparently it is a 1 year exclusivity for Epic Games Store. However all updates and patches will release on both platforms simultaneously for people who pre ordered the game on Steam.

https://steamcommunity.com/app/412020/allnews/

I already pre-ordered Metro Exodus on Steam. What happens to my order?
Your pre-order on Steam will be honored, and you will be able to download and play Metro Exodus on release day (15th February 2019).

If I pre-ordered the Gold Edition on Steam, will I still get my future Expansion Pass on Steam?
Yes, your Expansion Pack content will become available for download via Steam, when released.

Will I still get my pre-order bonuses - the Digital Artbook and Official Soundtrack on Steam?
Yes, your pre-order bonuses will be honored and delivered by Steam.

I ordered the Standard Edition - will I be able to purchase the Expansion Pass in the future on Steam?
Yes, if you own the Standard Edition on Steam, you will be able to purchase the Expansion Pass or standalone DLC on Steam when it releases in the future.

Does the Epic Store have any exclusive or timed exclusive DLC?
No. All future DLC for Metro Exodus will be released simultaneously on all platforms.

Are there any differences in content between the version on the Epic Games store and the version on Steam?
No, they have the same pre-order bonuses and in-game content. All future title updates, patches, and free and premium DLC will be released simultaneously across both versions.

Will Metro Exodus ever return to Steam?
Yes - Metro Exodus will return to Steam and on other store fronts after 14th February 2020.

^This is why its a douche move. Buying exclusivity because they know their launcher is shit for now.

Submitted my refund request. I'll save the $7 and buy something else. Don't care about the expansions for now.

Wait, so you're refunding the gold edition and pre ordering the standard or just calling it quits on this game via Steam for good ? If you're still gonna pre order the standard do it today cause looks like they'll stop selling the game on Steam in a few hours.

Aaaand refund request completed. Entire process took 40mins.

"Vote with your wallets" is the best we can do. Frankly I'm not sure if I wana support them at all at this point. The Wallet funds are still "pending" and apparently will be available within 24hrs.

I'll let fate decide. :p

    I have a PS5 but I am not satisfied with the experience. I am currently saving for a 4080 64 GB rig soon. Bit will wait for Pro if performance improves. This gen has been so bad I don't plan on buying consoles anymore for AAA gaming.

    Score 1 for game pass. I wouldn't pay full price for this at retail either.

    Just downloaded my first legit digital PC game on GoG at a discount of $8: Two Point Hospital. The same team behind Theme Hospital Two Point Studios now part of Sega. And I am having more fun than most recent AAA games except of course BG3.

    PC Gamer score of 58/100 for Hellblade 2??? Is it really worse than Gollum that was 64/100? Microsoft games can't even come close to high scores of Sony exclusives apparently.

    About the Microsoft (and Sony) debate, I feel both have become too greedy and losing their minds over corporate greed. Personally, I will never buy any console next gen and switch to PC gaming where democracy reins.
