Paradox of Hope was an indie VR game heavily inspired by Metro. The dev got hit with a legal notice basically saying we think you're using our IP please stop. And then he pivoted onto a new project.

Oh wow that gameplay is, VERY Metro. Normally I get pissed at these sort of things but the similarities were uncanny

Both mutant types were just straight up the same, the medkit and gas mask were virtually identical assets, the lighter burning spider webs, if you told me that was anything but Metro I'd be like "nah fam, that's totally metro."

IMO he might of had a case if he wanted to fight it but the mutants were very close to Metro's.

Probably should have gotten a job offer though too, if you ask me.
