I think it’s a top contender for my favorite of all time. Sometimes my heart will wander a little bit but at the end of the day Alan Wake 2 is the only game that has sunk its claws into me so deep and has possessed me in such a way. It’s ironic in a way. Almost as if I’ve traded places with Alan in the Dark Place. He gets free but my heart and mind are still there

It’s the first game I completed, then started the new game+ straight away. Such a good game!
Though it was funny seeing “Max Payne”, now that he’d gotten, what, 20 years older.

Yeah I’m pissed about it but Alan Wake Remastered and AW2 probably won’t ever come to Steam since it was published and at least partially funded by Epic.

Totally funded by Epic. Lake tried for over a decade to get anyone to want to publish it, it no one was interested. Not only did Epic put the money up, they had a clause of profits over a certain amount going only to Remedy.
It is a fact. We’d never have Alan Wake 2 without Epic picking up the bill!

That’s what I thought but wasn’t sure. I don’t use epic games store but they have published games I’ve liked over the years. Happy to have AW2 and I just play it on PS5 and Series X. Not that huge of a deal but it did hurt its PC audience. Control seems pretty popular on Steam so I’m sure they can see the difference in sales numbers.
