Pros
Pro Plays at 60fps at 1080p
The game holds at a steady 60fps while being played in 1080p. This makes for a more visually appealing game thanks to the solid framerate in full HD.
Pro Enhanced graphics over original release
Metro Redux is an improved version of Metro 2033 and Metro: Last Light in one game. The graphics have been improved as well as the balancing of the game. This makes for a definitive version of the game for those that have yet to experience the it, as well as for those that have.
Pro Well composed audio that is every bit as informative as the graphics themselves
The high quality of distinctive audio in the game keeps the player well informed of happenings around them. By giving the player sound ques as to what else is happening in game, you can easily suss out what type of weapons are being used around you, where someone may be located, by the sound of their footsteps, as well as vehicles may be close.
Pro Solid single player campaign that shows off many different stories from WW1
The single player campaign tells quite a few good stories, that are neither tied to one place or time, which allows the game to take the player through many different locales. This way the scenarios in the game stay fresh, both through graphical settings as well as overall story.
Pro Stable gameplay
Unlike a few other games in the series, the games launch and subsequent playtime has been solid throughout. No server issues, no buggy play, everything works perfectly fine and the game is optimized quite admirably.
Cons
Con Bleak depressing world
The setting of the game may not appeal to everyone as it is a very dark and cruel world that one will be spending a large amount of time in to complete both games. This may wear down the player.
Con Not historically accurate
World War I was full of trench warfare and you rarely went across no man's land (the space between your trench and the enemy trench). In Battlefield 1, there are barely any trenches, grenades are hard to get away from, and the bullet drop for snipers is too much.
Con Low recoil for what is supposed to be slow and old weapons (compared to modern day counterparts)
The recoil of the guns in game is quite fast for what are supposed to be pretty old and slow weapons. Most likely this off balance feel is caused by trying to make the game as accessible as possible. Sadly for those that would be interested in a more simulation like experience will be a bit disappointed.
