I noticed yesterday that there was a free PDA copy of the 2033 novel, which was great news because I've been dying to read it! Well, I downloaded it, and it shows in my DLC list for the game, but I can't find it. I've verified the cache, which prompted the game to download a file.
Still no luck. I rebooted Steam, the PC, etc etc. As I've read, it should be in my steam game folder.
I've navigated to the Metro LL folder and do not see a 'Novel' folder anywhere. Has anyone else experienced this, and does anyone know where to find this file cause I'm dying to read the book!
Originally posted by:There is a Metro 2034 book. Plus, you're supposed to check the game files. Steamapps/common/whatever/MetroLastLight and it should be there Sorry, I forgot to mention that I looked for the novel in Steam and found MLL but no book anywhere.
I don't know what to delete to force the Store to try the download again and I'm not uninstalling. I did look for both books in iBooks and found them in a half-dozen languages but English. I then tried Amazon and they have English copies of both 2033 and 2034.
But now I'm not interested.:) 'looked for the novel in Steam' That's my point. You're supposed to look in the game files, not Steam Also, 2034 isn't officially translated yet.
Contents. Plot synopsis Background In 2013, a nuclear war occurred, forcing a large amount of Moscow's surviving population to relocate to underground metro stations in search of refuge. Eventually, the communities settled in the underground train stations developed into independent states. Soon, factions emerged, ranging from the independent peacekeepers the 'Rangers of the Order', to the communist 'Red Line' faction and the fascist 'Fourth Reich', to the more powerful factions such as 'Polis', which contained the greatest military power and the most knowledge of the past, and the 'Hanza' regime, which controlled the main ring of metro stations by its sheer economic power.
As these groups began to evolve, the Red Line and the Fourth Reich quickly entered a state of war, as both sought to destroy the other. As the war raged, the stations who refused to join either side were either demolished by the factions, merged into the Hanza regime, raided by criminal bandits, or formed their own independent states. Other stations were outright destroyed by animals, mutated by the nuclear fallout. While most of the stations were controlled by the 3 main factions, some stations formed an independent alliances, including the ('Exhibition'). Within that station, the events of Metro 2033 unfold. Plot The of the novel is a 20-year-old man named Artyom who was born before the nuclear holocaust. He was saved from a horde of carnivorous rats that killed his mother and the inhabitants of his station as a baby by Sukhoi, a military officer.
Sukhoi is now one of the authorities of, one of the stations in the Russian metro, and has raised Artyom as his son. Artyom spends his time on patrol in the tunnels and working in the mushroom factories. Artyom meets a man named Hunter, who is looking for Sukhoi. The three meet and discuss the situation in VDNKh. VDNKh is facing increasing attacks from mysterious creatures known as The Dark Ones, who inspire terror throughout the station. Hunter leaves, but asks to speak to Artyom.
Artyom confesses that 10 years earlier, he and his friend went to the surface at the neighbouring station, Botanical Gardens. They were unable to seal the exit after their visit and the Dark Ones have been using this entrance to the metro ever since. Hunter tells Artyom that he intends to gather intel on the Dark Ones, and in the event that he doesn't return Artyom must carry a message to a man named Melnik at Polis with news of the threat. Feeling a sense of responsibility for the Dark Ones' attacks and seeking adventure, Artyom accepts.
Artyom begins to journey towards the centre of the Metro. His first companion, Bourbon, is killed by a psychic force transmitted through the pipes and Artyom is then guided by a mystic named Khan. Khan leads him to which is controlled by criminal gangs, but they become separated during an attack by the Fourth Reich. Artyom flees, only to be captured by the Reich who sentence him to death for killing an officer. Just before his execution, a band of revolutionary fighters from the Red Line intervene and rescue him. Pursued by the Reich, Artyom is left at Paveletskaya station and his route to Polis is blocked by the Hansa controlled, who operate strict border controls.
Artyom's passport was lost during his detention, and after a failed attempt to gain travel papers by betting on rat races, Artyom is taken into custody. After escaping, he finally reaches Polis. He delivers his message to Melnik, and the leadership of Polis gather to determine their course of action. Although Polis do not agree to intervene, a faction known as the Brahmins (who consist of scientists and academics who collect books from the above), contact Artyom. They offer a solution to the threat of the Dark Ones in exchange for Artyom's help in recovering a sacred book, as they believe him to be psychically sensitive.
Artyom travels to the surface with Melnik and young Brahmin called Daniel. They enter the library and are attacked by the 'librarians', mutated creatures that reside there. Daniel is mortally wounded, but before dying, gives Artyom his reward anyway. It is an envelope containing directions to a functioning missile silo. Artyom and Melnik flee without the book and re-enter the metro, arriving at station. Melnik leaves Artyom at the station while he goes to collect reinforcements but whilst he is away, Artyom becomes involved in the search for a missing child.
Artyom and the child's father are abducted by a tribe of cannibals who worship 'The Great Worm'. They are rescued by Melnik and a squad of fighters and they escape into, a secret set of tunnels that lead to the missile site.
The team pass through the metro station leading to the, which contains a mutated bio-weapon that attempts to hypnotize and consume them. Several are killed before they explode a tank of fuel to distract it. The majority of the group go to the surface and the missile silo, while Artyom is accompanied back through the metro so that they can provide targeting co-ordinates from a suitable location, Ostankino Tower. On the way, they stop at VDNKh, which has been almost overrun by Dark Ones. After a brief re-union with Sukhoi, Artyom reaches the tower and his team provide the missile site with the location of the Dark Ones hive. As they do, Artyom has a vision, which relates to the dreams and nightmares that he has been having. The Dark Ones have been trying to make contact, unable to communicate with the human survivors within the metro in a meaningful way, before they found Artyom.
Artyom re-evaluates their behavior and realizes that what was seen as aggression were actually attempts to make contact, which were only met with violence. As Artyom realizes that the two races could co-operate, the missiles fall and the Dark Ones are killed. Realising that the Dark Ones were killed in vain, Artyom tears his mask off and heads back home in tears.
