The libarians are just annoying, not really creepy, frustrating yes, creepy no, to me Metro doesn't really have that "creepy" factor, the creatures may look messed up, but it is more like a "well that is one ugly...!" It's like the Flood off of Halo, they look messed up but the majority of the time your just killing them, and not have enough time to actually be creeped out. It's like the first creatures you come across, they are running about and your first experience of them is killing them. I may be super-critical but to me, the only thing that creeped me out was those darn pipes.
The ones you could apparently hear the dead's last cry
. I have to admit the graphics are sublime, the controls are great, the environment at times can be lacking, but to call it creepy, I'd say it isn't. I also think that the characters in the game was lifeless, the majority of the time the characters are the same, I've seen the same character been repeated over and over the make the citizens of the metro. The lack of ammo, helped out with it's realism, I agree, but they went over the top with it, like with
the Nazis and the Russians
and you would of thought in a battle between them, it would be a gold mine for ammo, as they never run out, but yet, search all the bodies, and your guaranteed to be running out of ammo after 2 or 3 libarians. I think to me it is just another Post-Apoclayptic game, nothing to bad or special about it.
