10 Worst Things Video Games Made You Pay For
10. Metro: Last Light: Ranger Mode - A Difficulty Setting As Paid DLC
Metro: Last
Light is an experience quite unlike any other. While gritty and gory FPS games
aren’t exactly thin on the ground, this 2013 sequel to Metro 2033 expanded on the
original’s success and dialled up its oppressive atmosphere even further still.
The Metro titles balance visceral shooting action with tense survival horror elements, and an extra mode is available in the second game to emphasize this to the fullest: Ranger Mode, in which the focus in on realism. In hardcore Ranger Mode, no HUD of any sort is available, the player is restricted with the amount of weapons they can carry, and a single hit will kill both the protagonist and his enemies.
This is an excellent addition, of course; the ultimate challenge for experts who want to truly test themselves. The only issue is, Ranger Mode released as a paid DLC, costing £3.99.
