okay can someone tell me if i did this wrong? i wrapped Local Girl with Saga and saved right before i went back to bright falls. which kicked off the attack on the hotel with alan and casey called...No Chance i think it was. so i loaded the previous save and did We Sing (which was hilarious and amazing and i loved it btw) which right into Initiation 5 Room 665.. is this the right order? am i supposed to be doing this part before going back and starting No Chance or is Room 665 after that?

It looks like Nvidia made an oopsie with its newest driver and there's a memory leak or something when playing Alan wake 2. There's a hotfix driver out to fix it https://videocardz.com/newz/nvidia-releases-geforce-546-08-hotfix-driver-addressing-alan-wake-2-and-windows-10-bugs

even having jesse in charge only goes so far, as we see in aw2 you still have on location staff doing goofy poo poo like trying to make stories about a woman falling in love with a bear be willed into reality

thebardyspoon posted:You set it to the cops plot point and then pull the light from the cop car and then move into a space the car headlights were pointing at where there was a barrier, a physical one, not a darkness one around the passage you need to go into and then put the light back into the cop car and that lets you move further in and up. Hel posted:I got stuck there as well, switching on and off the police car Light also opens up an area behind the neon Light i front of it. it's behindthe wall so very east to miss. oh boy i think i soft locked myself, i don't have a cop plot point or have a cop car in the alley. where do i find that plot point?

thebardyspoon posted:Hmm, I don't know how you got into the alley without the cop plot point. I figured it was required. I think to get the cop plot point, it's either, when you first go into the cinema, then you get the cult plot point pretty quick and use it to get into the back room of the main lobby before you go into the auditorium you find an echo and it gives you the cop plot point... I think? It's either that or it's examining the bloody badges at the top of the stairs to the projector room. The door up on the catwalk up the stairs should let you back into the upstairs of the lobby in the cinema, if it doesn't then yeah you might be a bit hosed? Lol well I'm super glad I use multiple saves. What I did was saw the back of the concession stand was blocked. so looking for another way I noticed the double doors into the theater were briefly open when switching scenes. so I switched scenes once to get me behind the debris, and then a second time to sprint through the double doors before they were closed again

hey you know what's a great idea? not having a single manual save for the last 2 hours of the game also here's where saga clipped through the ground in the (i hope) final area and i decided to quit

Okay, so did the bullet of light ever get mentioned anywhere before Alice is like get this from my shoe box 5 minutes before the end of the game? saga tells Alan she has the bullet like me and Alan are supposed to know what it was

No I mean like the importance of it and why saga needs it. The clicker is obvious but thebullet is just a second thing mentioned offhand real quick. Was there a manuscript about it or anything?

Gaz-L posted:I think it's just kind of self-explanatory What can kill/stop the Darkness? Light, and Alan and Saga are fighting it using contemporary, conventional weapons, so hence a bullet made of light. I think Alice is just cutting through the bullshit by virtue of her art being able to be more expressionistic. yeah that's pretty much what i gleaned from what what little there was too. it's just that in a game that's fairly concerned with explaining stuff, repeatedly and often in roundabout ways, i figured i must have missed something about it because it's just there

poe meater posted:I think the combat was serviceable enough especially once you realize you can just use your strongest weapons since supplies are everywhere/refilled. You can also sneak by enemies with Alan. Not really sure how much the perk helps though. i maxed the sneak perk and, besides the enemies that are scripted to spawn and attack after you do certain things, i was able to run or at least walk past like 90% of the enemies in alan's levels even when they were right next to him

Unlucky7 posted:I kinda liked the jump scares, speaking as someone who isn’t a horror head, because i think they serve better as a shorthand for encountering or getting closer to something that is touched by darkness. Like a primal lizard brain sense going off that “this place be hosed, get out now” Okay, I swear I'm not trying to make light off it, but when people are referring to jump scares in this game, are we talking about the quick cuts to the scratch video clips or something else? Because none of that ever got me even a little but I want to be on the same page as everyone else

Unlucky7 posted:Basically, and honestly I do not think they are that bad. It’s basically the game occasionally going “OOGA BOOGA BOOGA!!” Personally I questioned whether she may not have actually been talking to David at all in those last couple phone calls due to the intervention of the dark presence. But that's pure speculation. From the past few pages I feel like I actually need to give quantum break a try

I could see him going by another name (and Sam getting a guy named David to play a guy named David haha) but I would hope saga would recognize her own husband when she contacted him through the mind place though
