Metro 2033 makes the killing easy and quietness
Metro 2033 celebrates the 15th anniversary of 15 years today, March 16, 2025. Below, we study how the accurate ethics system helped clarify its broader points about humanity and violence.
In video games, evil tends to be huge. Think of the blood rivers at the ends of the evil Baldur's Gate 3 or an army of Seth bending the player in the Knights of the Old Republic. These moments are not completely comic, but they have a joy for them. They have a covered joy of the villain. In some sense, the 2033 metro is not an exception. In the wake of atomic destruction, the Moscow Metro fills itself with the harsh bandits, brutal miracles, and authoritarian militants. It is a malicious matter of the previous examples of confirmation, but there is still a note of tampering with its endless men. But the final pursuit of the game, to destroy a “dark” army with an atomic weapon, casts the shadow of brutality in the real world. The 2033 metro relates to small decisions and delusions that accumulate to atrocities, all under an atomic shade. Unlike most other morals, Metro 2033 does not announce itself; Instead, he builds the character of the protagonist through small individual moments: beats the butterfly wings that become a hurricane.
This works in a simple bilateral way. Completing certain tasks will the ethical artyom hero will. Get enough points and will have the opportunity for a good end. Unlike other games with ethics systems, the player cannot know the number of points obtained by ARTYOM. There is only a sound and flash of light (plays a fateful sound when artyom loses ethical points). It is appropriate, artyom has modest assets. He is not a soldier. His station is far from the sprawling central stations on the metro and rarely left his home. He is frank as an administrative player like a game like this that can be mobilized. The world is more familiar with the player to make sure, but also from abroad and the newcomer for most. A type of bone waiting for it. The game opens in the media: Artyom is equipped with military degrees and fighting huge migration from the surface. But at first, he was only arrogant because of his youth, not his strength. He is unable to attempts. It takes an invitation to it to become a monster.
Metro 2033 opens with the older artyom friend and teacher Hunter who visits his home station. Hunter is a guardian of the Special Forces of Special Forces that act as a reality officer in reality on the metro. He warns of darkness, claiming that they destroyed other stations, equal, “My request has a slogan: If it is hostile, then you kill it.” While leaving to find them, Hunter Aritum leaves his dog signs, and tells him about warning the central government of the metro at the “Police” station if he does not return. Hunter trusts in this task, because of his desire-not because of any special ability or skill he has. A well -known introduction to a friend is a long way to drop a bomb.

This changes only by degrees, not only in terms of the conspiracy journey step by step throughout the metro or in the accumulation of the ARTYOM of allies and weapons, but in the sense of emotional ability to harm. There is a lot of stopping in the 2033 metro. The gas lamp markets and the fear rooms of the stations operate as spaces for breathing between the dark passages of the train lines and the hostile settlements of sectors and fascists. Outside the stations, Metro 2033 has the quality of the splendor of survival: horrific monsters, limited ammunition, and a lost environment. But the stations themselves work as tours of worldly life for metro citizens. Beggarians are pleaded for money, and home conflicts bleed through thin walls, and wait for conversations. Arytom does more than monsters fighting. He can give beggars or ignore them. He can chat with the station's residents or blow them directly. In other words, artom can avoid atrocities by paying attention to others. But generosity is only part of it.
The ethics system also measures this attention even when it is not applied to humans. The metro economy depends on military degrees, which can be spent directly or using strong ammunition on its own. On the radioactive surface, artyom should wear a gas mask, but its filters are rapidly exhausted; He must agree or buy more in order to stay. These systems combined ARYTOM to search for materials to help his journey. Finding the cache left behind by Rangers Mit or even examining the bodies themselves will affect more ethical. The levels are written, but the maze. The game is equivalent to the player when they explore its margins or outside the path that was appointed to them.
In some sense, the concentration of the 2033 metro on the lower track makes it the anti -decade shooter. Even in its most expansion campaigns, Call of Duty campaigns focus on objective marks and design direct levels. Metro 2033 takes signals of this, but it often allows multiple curricula. The user interface is absent from any track indicators. When sliding into a position of more than a military fire model, this is when the arttom has a guide, another person, often a soldier, to show the road. But even in those moments, the ethics system continues to track deviations from the path and reward them.
In other words, when artom obeys orders, he kills innocent people. Hunter attributes violence to darkness, but Aritum is unprecedented. Instead, the Arytom sees them looking at it and setting out in the shadow when they re -out. Rumors and rumors make them represent an existential threat, but experience gives artyom something else. The darkness that spreads its journey with visions, most of which are from Moscow before the bombs fall. It's a simple message: “Don't do this again.” The atomic bomb is released to the world, not only from a craftsman, but psychologically-psychologically. Darkness are vessels of that loss: the prophets who seek to prevent their second destruction.
The mountains of individual decisions led to Hiroshima and Nagasaki's atrocity, although we tend to place them at the feet of men such as Truman and Ovenheimer. But even these men were consisting of small options. American Prometheus, the CV that Christopher Nolan Obenheimer relies on, gives her strange virtues. It is the same features that made Obenheimer an attractive and vital personality that enabled him to build the bomb: his powers in persuasion, his ability to understand and summarize complex information, and his view of many people who worked under his leadership. What does it mean to be a “good” person, even someone with strong ethical convictions, when what you adopt is death? It will be easy to blame the sins of Obenheimer and the shortcomings in the bomb, but there is often a stronger relationship between the first atomic weapon and its virtues.
This is a slight difference that the 2033 metro cannot completely manage. If Arytom cares, generosity, and awake, then he will have the opportunity to prevent the dark person. If it is simple and good, it will all kill them. But the woven atrocities to accuracy in treacherous ways. Even generosity can go along with violence. One only needs to take a look at the portfolio of investment and political donations from philanthropists to activate this. There is a simplicity on the moral myth of the metro that undermines its aspirations.
But the 2033 metro still has strength, not only for its absolute sabotage of the military shooters, but its mood at the end of the world. The light is soft, small, and publisher. Darkness is stagnant and everyone. What is the vegetarian life that appears is deadly and deadly, twisted like the metal of the metro infrastructure. Ghost shades stand on the brightness of the lamp, and fade with the click of the switch. The world is inhabited. The Metro 2033 trip is the Arytom that decides if it will be haunted as well.
