      It seems to have gotten a pretty mediocre reception in a crowded market space prone to “winner takes all”, so flopped pretty hard

        Its a cool game and there is really nothing like it but I won’t lie I hate actually playing it, the controls and gameplay are just meh and some of the bosses are ridiculous but the setpieces and everything else was top tier.

        I liked Control but Alan Wake was a sludge. Its age really shows. That being said, it wasn’t necessarily bad enough that I couldn’t tank through the game, but if Control were in lower A tier, Alan Wake would be upper C tier

          Yeah AW1 honestly isn’t that fun. I played about half of it and then just read the story and watched some videos about.

          AW2, however, is excellent. Very very good. And I spent enough time with it to get the platinum trophy.
