Why is Metro 2033 so hard?

I bought every Metro game back in 2024 with the hopes of eventually beating the first 2 and getting to play Exodus. However, I’m having a lot of trouble with 2033.

My main issue, is that sneaking around enemies is very difficult for me. I made it around halfway through the game before stopping because I was using guides for EVERYTHING.

The things you have to do are so specific, and I doubt I would have made it past the first level without watching a youtube guide first.

I might just suck at videogames, but I really wanted to experience the first 2 Metro games and not just Exodus, but at the moment it’s not looking good.

Do you have any tips for beating Metro 2033?
