** Moral Points **
-------------------------

1) Refuse to take the reward from Sasha's mother at the very end of the level.


** Current level information **
------------------------------------------

On your way to Hole Station you meet up with a little boy named Sasha. His uncle was taking him to the station but ended up dead instead. Sasha has no idea what to do which leads you to decide to travel with him instead and carry him on your back.

You'll have to protect Sasha from Lurkers as they will come in mass groups to you. The main areas are infested with Lurker holes and will almost endlessly attack you if you don't progress.

While carrying Sasha, you'll be much heavier, so better control over your movements is advised.

To gain the only moral point in this level, refuse the military-grade bullets at the end of the level.


** Alternative Ending tips **
------------------------------------------

Some things are vital to know before starting the alternative walkthrought:

- It is dead important to research where and when moral points can be accumulated. By far the best location to go for a guide is here: http://metrovideogame.wikia.com/wiki/Moral_Points

Moral points are the triggers across the entire game that will decide wheter you can unlock the alternative ending (Enlightened achievement) or not and represent the right decisions in the game. You must collect a high amount of moral points before it unlocks, and some moral points CANNOT be missed regardless of the amount you have collected (examples are the MP from Khan in "Driving to Sparta" level and choosing the Dark One twice in 2 visions)!

- Contrary to believe, you CAN loot ALL dead bodies found in the Metro channels or the surface. Some guides tell you that looting is incorrect for the enlightened achievement but it has been confirmed many times that this is wrong. So, loot as much as you can!

- Some achievements are helpful in conjunction with the alternative ending. Examples are "Merciful", "Invisible" and "Generous".

- You'll know when you can trigger the alternative ending at the end: When Khan repeats his message from the Sparta base at the very end of the game (just before the launch of the missiles) it means that you can shoot the missile locator off the tower. This will unlock the 'Enlightened' achievement.

** Walkthrough information **
------------------------------------------

Since it is the first video in the walkthrought, I'll quickly give an insight of the entire walkthrough and what exactly you will be able to see:

- This walkthrough explains the entire Metro 2033 gameplay, with the alternative ending instead of the 'normal' or usual ending. To be able to get the alternative ending, you are obliged to do some extra research and harder tasks which are otherwise not essentially noticable on a first runthrough of the game.

- The difficulty is hardcore.

- I play on all the highest settings. Note that I do however use Analytic Anti-Aliasing (AAA). Generally, there is a difference between AAA and SSAA but it isn't particularly better.

- The software I use is FRAPS. In my opinion it is one of the best gaming recording softwares out there, with DXtory being an equivalent.
