The premise, in the publisher's words
The year is 2036. A quarter-century after nuclear war devastated the earth, a few thousand survivors still cling to existence beneath the ruins of Moscow, in the tunnels of the Metro. They have struggled against the poisoned elements, fought mutated beasts and paranormal horrors, and suffered the flames of civil war. But now, as Artyom, you must flee the Metro and lead a band of Spartan Rangers on an incredible, continent-spanning journey across post-apocalyptic Russia in search of a new life in the East.

How long it takes, and what that costs
The main story runs about 17.6 hrs. Completing everything takes closer to 26 hrs, roughly 1.5 times the length of the critical path. At its current cheapest price of $2.99, that works out to about $0.17 per hour of the main story, or $0.12 per hour if you finish everything.
What you need to run it
The minimum specification calls for Intel Core i5-4440 or equivalent, 8 GB RAM and GeForce GTX 670 / GeForce GTX 1050 / AMD Radeon HD 7870. An 8GB memory requirement is modest by current standards; most machines sold in the last five years clear it. Install size is roughly 59GB. Both tiers are compared side by side on the requirements page, and you can check your own parts against them without installing anything.
