Metro 2033 - Original PC vs. Redux PC Graphics Comparison 

In the original Artyom had gloves, in the Redux he doesn't. RIP hands 2cold4me

I'm kind of at a loss to be honest. The original's atmosphere was more bleak (making it more appropriate) but I find that the surface sections in redux created this unique contrast between beauty and desolation.

It's odd how it's so inconsistent. Some parts look loads better but other parts look significantly worse. Lighting in particular was much better in the original, but some textures and models are better in Redux.

Главное - не есть желтый снег Dont eat yellow snow!

redux=crazy eyes edition.

Read 3 Metro books.. Finished to play the game today. I'm totally in. Love it.

The graphical improvements are very minor. And in some places the original looks even better. The point of the Redux version was to optimize the game. Because the original one was very poorly optimized. And it was hard to run even with the most powerful GPU's at it's time.

redux has much better graphics, but doesn't have that atmosphere like in original. Original has fucking creepy atmosphere :o

The og is free on steam till the 15th, go decide for yourselves.

Original looks better ?

Not only the atmosphere was lost but also several animations and functions of the original that I would have liked to see in the Redux, it is as if they had transformed the survival of the original Metro for more mechanics of a call of duty

Its very simple: Original = Much better atmosphere, scary and depressing. Redux = Slightly more eye candy, better weapon damage and better ki. I will go with the original since i want to experience the dense atmosphere, already read the book a few years ago.

The original looks darker, scarier and much more desolate, like it really should be. The redux version's ambiance looks almost cosy, at times. Also, I find the mutants much more terrifying in the original, especially nosalises and demons. For instance, when that nosalis lands on the train cart, it looks a lot scarier in the original.

both of these versions of the game are absolutely amazing

Payday 2 needs a redux, so they can fix fucking everything

It triggers me so much that Artyom lacks his tattered gloves at the beginning of Metro 2033 redux.

While I appreciate all the work that went into Redux I find myself loving the original far more.

Why did they change the humans so much. And why make the iris so pronounced.,.,.,.,fnggg

They should have made Metro: 2033 Redux with LL graphics, but with the same atmosphere and lighting from the original.

Honestly, it feels like you're watching 2 different games based on the same scenario. They both do the job very greatly, and sometimes I feel like even if the original looked a lot better in certain aspects, that just makes it more cozy, and takes away from the uncomfortable atmosphere of the game. Although to compensate for that, the outside seemed to be way more dark, in a way contrasting it.

I always love the original since it was the first metro i got that got me into the books as well. The first felt a lot like how the books described the metro, dark and everyone living like rats.

One of the problems of remakes its that developers never get the lighting properly set and in most cases the game looks worst in that area.

Super Vergleiche, macht weiter so ! lg

Always use to love watching your graphics comparisons man. Hope you doing better :)

What makes metro so awesome is the level design, the environment, and how they made the metro look, feel, and sound like the factions also feel like they fit the environment very well but overall the level design and the environment are probably my favorites

I love the smoke and dust particles in the original so it makes me kind of sad to see it all go away in the Redux version. Overall I think that Redux looks much better than the original on the surface and the original looks much better underground in the metro or in the library.

The watch is different en both versions compared to the one I have on PS4. The console version is a remaster of the remaster?

Very mixed feelings. While some things such as monster enemies looking far better in Redux, some characters look worse in the newer version. Just look at this character 2:08 that looks much better in the original. Redux pig is all "pimply" and hairless, while the original pig looked better with fur, as pigs should have. Not that it matters. It's a very mixed bag with some unreasonable changes. Redux is mostly blurry. That ugly FXAA/TAA anti-aliasing. Lighting and shadows were better in the original. For me that's a deal-breaker.

original more true post apocalyptic....IMHO

По моему мнению в оригинальном Метро 2033 картинка более натуралистическая , и преобладает в ней гнетущая атмосфера постапокалипсиса . А когда играешь в переиздание , то думаешь не о атмосфере , а о том , что за окном такая-же картина как и в игре .

4:33 Not Original Metro 2033 here, it's the Redux version. If you look closely, it pops up the "bullet icon" also known as "buy" icon when he got close to the merchant, which it is the same icon feature that was introduced in Metro Last Light.

Anyone know the song that plays at 4:25? Thanks in advance

Оц тоц перевертоц бабушка здорова!)

5:50 I really like how the original had a lot more recoil than the redux version. Idk why they changed this, because Artyom is supposed to be an average 20 year old, imo it would be more realistic he has a bit more recoil.

What did you use for recording? Your phone? Low rez af.

The 2010 release didn't work in my celeron N2806 with Intel HD but this one did splendidly. I welcome the addition of more difficulties and a "playstyle" option, plus there is more exploration in some areas where you have to search keys for safes that contain military ammo and stuff, and also there's more customization for weapons. However, the shinier graphics affects the overall theme of the game and may scare off some players from the original title.

3:31 omg really?

3:04 Teddy bear!

Is there a way to switch between original and redux graphics just like Halo Master Chief Collection?

What are the songs used in this video?

I just recently started to play the game, I haven't play the older version, but I wish we had that darker stormier outside lighting than the blinding new one.

I play redux in low setting so still the same for me.

Old video but worth a shot. In what order should I play the Metro games? It can be a bit confusing

Is tesselation ON on both? If yes, then very interesting. Original doesn't have tesselation on some objects the Redux does.

I need to play this game again.

I just finished the Last Light redux. Now doing the 2033 Redux. I finished 2033 on xbox already, but I had to try it on pc, so I got the redux version. The improved textures, higher polygon models are better, but I just like the more grim and gloomy atmosphere the original Metro 2033 has. The city for example looks way darker in the original than in the Redux, which is kinda sad since the game is supposed to be gritty, not full of lights. That made venturing in the city scary. Nonetheless a good job, but I like some things of the old one better.

is the original easier to play on pc intel uhd 620?

What I found by very close inspection of the video: - Textures seem to have the same resolution as in the original :) - New textures are less crispy because they have less specularity and bumpiness :( Criticism: Sometimes it is very difficult to compare texture quality here because of: - AA is OFF in the original version - Motion blur is ON in the redux version - Recording resolution is not always 1920 × 1080 but sometimes lower Nevertheless, thanks for the comparison.

2:13 this must be trolling, look at the nose lmao

why is Redux so bright? Sadly, original looks better - more atmospheric and models look better..

One question: What means a “redux” version and what makes it different from the original game?

I’m confused is metro last light redux and metro 2033 redux the same or?

I have both. I played & cleared the original 1st, and fell in love with the Metro Series. Then I played and cleared Metro Last Light. Then years later I played the Redux version. I like both. There is ups and downs on both versions. My Comparison: Original to Redux: - Monsters look more Scarier, finer detailed and a bit darker over Redux. - Characters sort of look the same, and most look younger over Redux. - Game overall looks darker & grainier versus Redux. Which version do I prefer? BOTH. Play the original then play the Redux. They both have there unique characteristics. Though you have to play the ORIGINAL if you want the TRUE to LIFE experience METRO is suppose to give you. Last Light is a great improvement in Character movement, graphics, mask looks, like seeing smoke coming out of your filter, cleaning the mast etc., details and so on. I can't wait for a METRO 2034 Expansion Pack and a METRO 2035. Though I would prefer it be about 10-15 years in the future. Such as METRO 2055. For example.

Also rein vom grafischen her ist die Redux version natürlich besser aber stilistisch gefällt mir das original besser. Die Redux version ist teilweise sehr aufgehellt und ich finde die metro muss einfach düster sein^^

It's strange how they completely changed the facial appearances of most of the characters. If you played the original game and got to know those characters on sight, you would never recognize them moving to the redux.

Don't know if it's me but some orginal looks more crisp and aswell just some details that are missing like the amo pouches and the vests the order wear, kinda bothers me

Original indeed looks better in general, but that's due to the gamma-settings, which-by the way-can be adjusted. Original also stutters a lot more. Redux stutters a lot less, and has a load of gameplay enhancements. Atmosphere is mostly about the same, and some levels are during daylight in Redux. There's more to Redux's advantages than what I just stated.

Am I one of the few who thinks the redux is a proper remaster? Absolutely makes everything look better.

I haven't played the original yet, but finished redux 3 times, is the original worth a try?

Guys Im getting this game soon which version should I buy ??

Мне кажется или оригинал более мрачный и страшный ?

They added some more effects, lens flares and made better textures. The Redux looks very good.

Wich one should i get last light or 2033

It’s too bright, in the book they would go blind if they went out with the sun blazing.

i absolutely love the metro series, cant wait for exodus

i have a weak pc which one is best to download

I'm so confused is redux like a remastered version??

The video doesn't do the Redux version justice. The upgrade in terms of assets, lightning and effects like smoke and fog is much more apparent when you have it running in real time. I played them back to back some couple of weeks ago. That said, the art direction has definitely changed. I can understand people liking the look of certain areas better in the original. I personally think that both versions are worth playing if you like the series. It's a shame that the original game was removed from Steam. Another thing was that the original was too dark for me in many places. Like to the point I could barely see where I was going during stealth sections. It was virtually impossible to find out where some of the traps were without bumping into them first and reloading a checkpoint. The gamma setting did little to alleviate that. The Redux was much matter in that regard. I could actually see where I was going and it was still plenty dark where it was appropriate. The gamma setting actually perceptibly changes things and has reference images which help you to adjust it.

Me encanta más el original y como las luces artificiales te ayudaban a alumbrar el entorno muy oscuro, igual el manejo de armas era complicado concordando con la experiencia de Arthion.

The most important. The frame rate improved?

which one performs better?

Unglaublich.. ich finde die Originale Version viel besser und stimmiger :D

Оригинал лучше, по крайней мере атмосферой.

Great video!

Wild. If you didn't have the clips labeled I would have been fooled into thinking the better looking one was the remaster. After seeing this I'll stick with the original, in almost all regards it looks superior to me.

shitty lightning and graphics does not mean better atmosphere is everyone blind? xd

Personally I think the only thing the Redux improves on visually is some shadows and outside effects. The original has much better human models and has a dingier atmosphere about it probably due to choices of lighting and particles. The Redux messed up peoples faces. I have heard that the redux did improve on the controls though.

The FOV is the biggest difference for me. I can’t change the FOV on the original but redux it’s just a cfg file, not 3.

But the game is the same or are diferent 2033 and 2033 last light ?

Where are all the blins and squats

Watch in 140p for true slavic experience

könnt ihr mal bei gta V ein vegleich zwischen ps3 vs xbox 360 machen? und könnt ihr häufiger den fullscreen vergleich machen der sich häufiger hin und her wechselt mit wichtige makierungspunkten?

how's the cpu ?

YO THEY ADDED MY BOY PRAPOR??? MAD RESPECT! THAT NIGGA OWES ME 7.62X39MM AMMO!

It's 2019 and I just played both Redux prior to Exodus and got to say, it's hold up REALLY well. 2033 Redux & Last Light Redux still have more details than other games released in 2018. Such a great franchise.

Can anyone please tell me who sponsored this video? I'd very much like to know.

Nice comparison thanks!

the redux version looks great, but wtf happened at 1:10 :)))

Why are some of the character models so awful in redux feels rushed.

Why so much drop frames ?

What music is used here?

Alright guys, I understand that some of you don't like change, and in most cases I would agree, and this is coming from someone who hates the Last Light redux. The 2033 redux is just overall better than the original. The textures are much higher resolution, the character models look more true to Russia, and look more like real people than clean cut ass holes. The lighting is in most places far better. The changes to the environments make the game look far more true to real life, one good example of that would be the comparison between the hot water underground. The brighter overworld environment in this video helps better reveal what the torn apart Russia looks like in this universe instead of the constant dark underground sequences. The game runs leagues better than the original. Lastly, the particle effects, anti-aliasing, and bloom effects added in the redux greatly improve the atmosphere. And you guys are saying that this is shit? The only design changes I have a problem with are a select few models (only two of those models in this video) who just overall look dumber than the ones in the original. Other than that, this is the better version.

I think this has to do with your graphic and screen settings with the right settings redux's lighting is amazing as good or better than the original

can i play it on windows 10

Bilde ich mir das nur ein oder sieht das Original besser aus? Wenn man mal bei dem Vieh guckt was auf den Wagen springt, ist die Haut doch beim Original deutlich detaillierter als bei der Redux Version. Auch der Boden sieht beim original finde ich iwie besser aus als in der Reduxversion und der Typ der da bei 44 Sekunden rumballert hat beim beim original auch iwie schärfere Texturen. ich kann mir nicht helfen aber ich finde das Original sieht sogar besser aus, dazu ist es düsterer als die Reduxversion was die Atmosphäre verstärkt.

Очень приятно, что западные игроки играют в метро и им она нравится)

Помню в оригинальный Метро играл когда еще мелким был, вот я там боялся до усрачки просто.

5:28. NOT "particles effect". Simple animated texture with alpha blend (transparent).

What's with those "stutters" // "Lag Spikes" I see ? Oh.. was this video done with a console ? That'd explain it

Все у меня оригинал, 2033 и Луч надежды ^=^/
