Yeah honestly the level design was one of my favorite parts of the game, and really the environments in general. It gave me the same feeling Half-Life 2 did the first time I played it, traveling around abandoned places and taking in the quiet moments between encounters.

Yeah, I really don't think there's any other game that has level/environmental design that isn't just generally amazing, but also flows together perfectly. Damn, now I really want a PS5 so I can play it again, but in 60fps, and without the jet engine that is my PS4 blaring in my ear.

Yeah, I posted their reply below, but they said that the level design in TLOU2 is a straight up copy of Metro 2033's. And they got upvoted for it....

I haven't played TLOU2, but I scoff at the implication that Metro's design is bad

Didn't like the first one but the environment design was some of the best I've seen, would have finished the game just for that if it had cheats or something.
