How to unlock the Generous achievement in Metro 2033 - Definitive Guide
And here is how I got it (there might be more ways just got the game yesterday.)
1)Before you leave your own home Metro station, when you are headed to the armory to gear up, there will be a guy sitting on a bench. He will ask you for some bullets to help his sick kid and that he will pay you back later.
2)Later on when your at the station you arrive at after escorting the caravan (where everyone considers you a hero and your drinking Shroom Vodka) you will come across a kid that offers to take you to a stranger that wants to meet you for 1 bullet. Agree to that.
3)Also while in that same station wander about and give a bullet to one of the many poor people in the area.
It should pop for you after that.
The first person to help is at your home station of Exhibition when you are leaving for your trip to Riga. After you walk up the flight of stairs into the market area, there will be benches some people on them directly opposite from you. The man on the far left is the one in need, so stand by him until he asks you for help. Give him the bullets.
The next incident occurs immediately after the celebration in Riga's bar after you are done on the railcar section. When you get up and walk down the steps, a homeless man is hunched over to your left at the bottom of the railing. Stand by him for awhile and then you can give him the bullet.
The last incident is only about ten feet away; the kid standing in the doorway to the trainyard area. He will ask if you will give him a bullet to lead him to Bourbon. Give him the bullet and this is as good as yours.
Hope this helps some people out.
*EDIT*
If you would also like to get the Realist achievement while doing this, refuse a bullet to the kid in the doorway when he asks to lead you to Bourbon. Then reload your checkpoint and give him the bullet and continue.
Credit goes to VenomXNL for pointing this out!
same time. First refuse to give a bullet to the child and receive the 'Realist' (10G) achievement, then
immediately reload checkpoint and do give a bullet to the child. This should work to get the Generous
achievement and the Realist achievement, at least this is what i did to get them both.
The requirements for this achievement are fairly straightforward and won't cost you too much. You will need to make one donate in "Exhibition" and two in "Riga".
Exhibition
Once you start the level make your way to the market, you will find several people sitting on a bench (Just across from the weapon dealer). Look for a man who will ask you for a bullet as his kid is sick. Given him one of your bullets.
Riga
After you have finished in the bar head down stairs, directly at the bottom of the stairs you will find several poor/homeless characters Give one of them a bullet and turn your attention to the kid standing in the doorway on your right. The kid will ask for a bullet to take you to a man, give him one of the your bullets and the achievement will unlock.
If you want to complete "Realist" in the same playthrough reload your previous checkpoint.
VDNH
At the beginning of the level, go to the market, there are several people sitting on a bench (opposite the weapons seller). The man will tell you about the child’s illness, give him treatment.
Rizhskaya
You will see homeless people at the bar and at the bottom of the stairs, give it to them. Pay attention to the baby standing in the door on the right side. The child will ask you to take him to the person, give him a bullet.
Here, by reloading the checkpoint, you can achieve the “Realist” achievement.
