    I love what Remedy entertainment is doing with Alan Wake/Control/Quantum Break.

    It’s a bit all over the place and an acquired taste, but since Control/Alan Wake 2 they’re really bringing it all together.

    It’s kinda world building focused and spans across different games, rather than a concise “beginning and end” story. Quite difficult to describe tbh, but it’s probably the only video game story I’m really invested in.

    I’d recommend starting with Control or Alan Wake 2, but I believe proper order would be Alan Wake 1>Quantum Break>Control>Alan Wake 2.

      i wanted to play aw1 again and i think i had finished it before but Jesus Christ it feels janky.

      i kinda miss the times when i could only buy a game or two at a time and that forced me to play them for a while.

      now if I’m playing a game with jank i can just switch to one of the other 2000 games i already have waiting.

      and i loved control but it has the worst save points. i just don’t want to go back several rooms every time i make a mistake. that alone stops me from playing it again.
