Metro 2033 Diaries Part Ten

Andrew discovers the secrets of D6.

- Andrew Duncan

This is my ongoing exploration of the Metro games, played in release order. I will chronicle my playthrough of each title in turn and discuss any recurring themes and noteworthy events. This time I continue Metro 2033 Redux.

Having made my way to Polis and been denied aid, Miller helped me reach a nearby library to try and find some information on the D6 missile base instead…

There was no doubt now that I was in the basement, and from the looks of things heading for the sewers. I slowly made my way through the area, avoiding the two librarians even as one of them went away. I was crouching, and intended on remaining crouched unless I needed to run.

In the next area, a librarian was trying to grab a nosalis that had invaded the area, so I just avoided it and made my way up and around an elaborate series of planks and pipes, to a staircase. Into a ventilation area, a librarian knocked through a grating to try and grab me, probably assuming I was a mutant because it quickly stopped grasping and allowed me on my way.

Down another metal staircase, I had to drop and very carefully navigate my way around a series of sleeping librarians. They must have been using this area exclusively as a sleeping zone, because I passed by multiple snoozing librarians, and much to my surprise I didn’t step on any or shoot them by mistake.
