God I love this game. God I love Remedy.
Same, I already liked them because of Max Payne but now with Alan Wake, Control, and Alan Wake 2? They’ve got me hooked!
Also honourable mention to Quantum Break!
Quantum Break, the only thing keeping that game from being as good as it could’ve been was that Microsoft owned it
Yeah absolutely. Love that they can just connect it by being like “multiverse, whatever! We just won’t say the names exactly, deal with it Microsoft!”
I love that its still kind of lore-connected with Mr Door/Hatch and other similarities like that
This got me to look at Control for the first time, and I can’t wait to play it.
Ultimate edition currently on sale on Steam for only $3.99!
You are in for a real treat when you get to the astray maze.
No spoilers but.
Be ready for something . Wear headphones during it, if you can.
No put on the 7.2 surround
Which do you like better? The Ashtray Maze or The Interlude from AW2?
I can’t recall what the interlude was. Reminder ?
After that play Quantum Break, then Alan Wake and Alan Wake II. I am sure you have played Max Payne 1 and 2 already. Yes, they are all connected, kind of.
I couldn’t get into Alan waffle 1. I’m not sure if it was the bullshit flashlight battery mechanic or something else it’s been a while, but I enjoyed what of the story I played. I think I checked it out from the library and wanted to play something else.
It’s fantastic all the way through. The janitor missions are the best.
Its amazing. You wont want it to end
Wait what ty I love this game but only had it on the online service bullshit for Playstation
edit: steam sale ends in under 12 hours i should pay attention i guess
Pretty sure this is the voice actor of Alan wake. I played them backwards, control first then Alan wake and I knew I recognized the voice.
Yes. Dr darling is the same actor as Alan wake. Not just same voice but same guy. It’s crazy how different he looks and sounds as Dr darling.
Nope, Alan Wake is voiced by Matthew Porretta (Darling) but acted by Ilkka Villi. Just like Alex Casey and Max Payne are acted by Sam Lake (the creative director of Remedy) but voiced by James McCaffrey (Director Trench). I think this was because both Lake and Villi have really strong accents
Ah. I see why I was getting some misinformation about who was who
I loved this game. I
need to buyjust bought the big edition, the dlc was as fun as the main game (and added some cool shit) which is rareThere are two DLCs, Foundation and AWE, did you get both? I think AWE is good, but Foundation is really great
Ultimate edition was 4 bucks. I had hoped for ps5 (that chair is more comfy) but I couldn’t pass up that price
Every time I remember about this game I remember this in specific https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=SAYDNGlcVxQ
Spider time!
I would love to see Darling in the next game. Through the very process he describes here.
I need to finish this game. I was really enjoying it.
A great example of saying nothing, but causing a sense of panic.
Not saying nothing. It’s a fantasy/scifi setting where materialism is almost certainly wrong and the pneuma (Kinda. Mostly.) is not only real but a place you can go and fuck around with.
Like “what if the Nazis won world war 2 and movies were multiverse fuckery magic” or “what if we brought dinosaurs back for a theme park”. It’s explaining lore if the setting and why a magic Bakelite telephone that makes you levitate or whatever is a cohesive part of the setting and thread you can follow and not just random bullshit, some of the logic of some of the mysteries and puzzles in the game(s), etc.
