In a month, I will have had Alan Wake in my Steam library for a decade without having finished it yet.
Alan Wake (2013) was the first game I bought on Steam back in July of 2013 and I enjoyed it, but I never got around to completing it.
In a months time it will have been a year since I started that game and I still plan to finish it. It is starting to feel a bit dated and I know there is a remaster, but I feel compelled to finish the original copy I've been sitting on for the last decade.
I believe it was the first digital game I bought and at the time it was a weird concept to buy a game I couldn't give away or sell.
That was my situation as well, wanting to play AW before playing the Control DLC but man the game is a slug... It was when it released so it feels even worse now...
I need to replay this again. I loved Alan Wake when I played it back in the day with its Twin Peaks atmosphere, and I liked coming across the random videos that were a homage to The Twilight Zone.
Heh. Just checked my account. Alan Wake was added to it in May of 2013. I haven't played it yet... I think it was part of a humble bundle or something.
Bought it in a bundle in 2015-16 and I only recently got a computer than can run it, and I have forgot about it entierly. Will give it a shot now, thanks!
Play it with headphones in a dark room for the full experience. I had to take breaks because it freaked me out so much. The ambience from the sound and visuals is pitch perfect.
Alan Wake and Control are two of my favourite games of all time. I can't wait until they come out with the sequel to either. I just love Remedy so much.
I don't really have much to contribute here except that I'm glad my favourite studio is getting some attention.
