Metro 2039 devs say the ongoing war in Ukraine has changed how they write morality: 'The franchise's very nature is getting too close to reality'
Developers at 4A Games, the studio behind the Metro series, have stated that the ongoing war in Ukraine has significantly impacted their approach to writing morality in games. Previously focused on preventing war and exploring shades of grey, the studio now feels the need to present a clearer distinction between good and evil due to the real-world horrors they are experiencing. This shift reflects the franchise's nature becoming uncomfortably close to reality.
