This one's a 7/10 for me. Recommend waiting for improvement patches and/or a sale unless you're really keen on Metro and VR shooters.

Took me 12.2h (10.3h in-game) to beat the game on Hardcore difficulty with a lot of time spent searching for ammo and collectible postcards, so the length is somewhat fair relative to other VR FPS I've played.

Ambitious and worthy title of the Metro franchise with cool environments, unique gun mechanics, and novel backpack storage system. Characters and English voice acting were fun to follow along with. However, is marred by technical shortcomings (so-so graphics, lack of dynamic environmental props, sub-par PC performance) and somewhat repetitive levels and enemies (Metro underground, two-and-a-half variants of mutants, generic gun-wielding human bandits). More worthwhile for Metro fans than those who are unfamiliar. I enjoyed it as one of the former.
