Wait for a sale. It's regularly far cheaper:

I never made it through Metro 2033 largely because it ran so badly on my system. Maybe I can finally get it to run well enough now

Thanks, I actually ended up picking the package up on Steam over the weekend. When it's a little cooler and I can bear to be indoors for more than 10 minutes I'll see how I get on with them!

It's scheduled for release on the 15th Feb. Here's quite a lengthy play through. It looks really good.
                               
However the specs are monstrous!
EDIT: Well not too monstrous.

It does look good.  Ive not paid any attention to any of this game but this has proper peaked my interest.   

Need it to crash in price   cause im cheap.

lol, I doubt this will be a Fallout 76 and I can't remember the last time I paid full price for a game. Probably Fallout 4 on launch IIRC. I'm just worried my machine won't be able to do it justice. I wish we could go back to the old days when there were game demos and all this was fields..........

Metro Exodus will only release on the Epic Store, but Steam preorders will be honoured | PC Gamer

it is understandable i guess.

88% of profit on epic store vs 70%  of profit on steam.  its a gamble, they will definitely lose sales by not being on steam though.  The game is definitely on my radar, but i want to play the 1st 2 1st (i have the standard versions but may get redux ones before i put much time into it. (played the 1st game for maybe 30 mins).


isnt this just typical however. All markets get the valve tax savings passed onto them - except the UK.

. Now, on the Epic Games store, it's priced £41.99. (UPDATE CORRECTION: This UK pricing is incorrect. Metro Exodus costs £49.99 on the Epic Games store. The price saving does not extend to the UK. Sorry for the confusion.)

I dunno, i am not a fan of store exclusives really but i think they may be a necessary evil (store exclusives at least mean the game is still accessible for everyone at least).  1 way i would like to see tried would be coming from another angle.

Put a game on all stores, for the same base price, but then the store fee is added on top, that way the user can choose where to buy a game from but they pay the store fee on top.  The difficulty there arises with multiplayer support but should not be an issue for single player or P2P games.

So where does that leave me, I have a steam key preorder on cdkeys. will they still provide a steam key?
