10/10 seems to be the general consensus. The only complaint I’ve heard is with Jesse as a character, which while I’m not sure I understand, does seem to be the most common.
Being a huge Alan Wake fan it definitely is a pleasure to play through. I’m excited to get too the AWE DLC for it
If I didn’t stumble upon the astral bathroom before I don’t think it would have clicked for me how to solve the very last one I did. It’s definitely on par with the same difficulty of Zelda 1 where you either need a lot of time or a walkthrough to solve it
I’ll definitely put it on my list. The story and scale of the Remedy Universe was one of my favorite parts of it. I’d kill to experience something similar
Man. When I was younger I couldn’t get into Star Fox 64 on my 3DS. Maybe I should give it a try again. Is it the kind of thing where the PC Port is the better way to play it or should I play it on original hardware?
I’ve found that the Crystals in the foundation DLC really helped mix up the combat enough to stab a little more life into it for the DLC. But I do get that. If I didn’t stop like 3 missions away from the end the first time I played I probably would have found it a bit repetitive too
I’m excited. I’m a bit worried I’m seeing this as an addition to the Alan Wake Story but with a free game thrown in. After starting the foundation DLC though I feel a bit reassured that’s not the case
I feel like outside the box gameplay and story is Remedy’s MO. Alan Wake has the Story and Flashlight mechanics, Control has all the Parautilitarian mechanics and the lore with The Oldest house and Director. Even Max Payne as far as i’m aware was unique with the Bullet Time mechanics
I tried the Jukeboxes but just couldn’t really get into them as much as i wanted too. Which is a shame because i love the Quarry and the combat is really satisfying to pull off
I’m disappointed i sat on it this long, especially with Alan Wake being one of my favorite games of all time and knowing the connection this had too it. Initially i dropped it because i struggled with the combat and stepped away thinking it wasn’t for me. I don’t know what it is but stepping back into it, it just clicks for me now and i love it. I finished up the main story today and started on the Foundation DLC today.
