I'll buy the new Metro game for sure. I don't mind spending $60 on a single player game. Far Cry 3 and 4 were both worth it, Gears of War were both awesome and worth it, DOOM was worth it, Rise of Tomb Raider was totally worth it, but for some reason, this game didn't feel worth it. Here's one reason:
I felt cheated during what was supposed to be big boss fights. They let me pick up powerful beam weapons that just destroyed the big bosses. I also just walked around with these huge beam weapons and easily strolled through the game because the beam weapons are way too OP. The game was too easy in certain key areas because of the weapon pickups and it felt cheap to me. Increasing difficulty won't fix that I don't think. I don't know. I just think it would have been more appropriately priced at $40 perhaps. That's my feeling on it. Oh, also. Titanfall 2's single player campaign was way shorter but also worth the money because of how badass it was. So it's not even the length of it really I suppose. I just detected some cheapness and lack of passion in the game. It was good and looked amazing, but something was missing that would have made it worth that $60 price.
Seriously, those beam weapons kind of ruined the game to be quite honest. Its like playing DOOM 2 and just strolling through the game with the BFG with endless ammo. That's what it felt like.
I'd go back and try to challenge yourself some day. I "cheated" and was able to unlock the hardest difficulty for my play through. I would recommend avoiding all the silly power weapons as I felt they were too overpowered. I'm burned out on Wolfenstein and not sure if I will beat it.
The game looks great, but gunplay is nowhere near as compelling as Rainbow 6 Siege which offers coop and pvp gameplay.
