I just beat Alan Wake 2. It has shockingly good visual and sound design, which is no surprise coming from Remedy. But it’s a bad video game. Nearly all of the moment to moment gameplay is deeply unfun, full of baffling game design choices that feel pulled from another era, and the self-indulgent plot is as deep as a puddle. The game about writing is in dire need of an editor.

Play Control instead, or if you’re looking for spooky northwest vibes, play Deadly Premonition. You’ll have a better time with either.

I loved Alan Wake, is the gameplay the same or did they make it worse for no reason? I love most of Remedy's stuff (couldn't get into MP3) and the plot from what I've seen and the style and the music looks like AW2 is going to be great. Am I going to hate it if I loved the first, even 100% the manuscript? Cos if they made the gameplay worse (less interactive) it's going to be the gaming disappointment of several years.

Just got the third (of three) endings for The Talos Principle, so I think I can safely say that I've completed the game. I enjoyed the puzzle solving a lot and didn't find it particularly challenging, but by the time I started working on getting the stars in each level I was ready to move on to another game, so I cheated and used a walkthrough to find them. Not particularly interested in hunting down the easter eggs or the remaining trophies, so I think I can call it a wrap.



...three endings?

I didn't ascend, then I did - is the third ending for collecting all the stars? Now I come to think of it, I do remember sealing myself in a stone coffin for one ending, is that the third?

Going to playthrough it again for the third ending, refresh my memory while waiting to upgrade my rig to be able to run the sequel. Cheers!

Enjoy!

This link takes me to a EHCP (whoever they are) site asking admins to login?

I found a NOLF with Widescreen Patch from 2018 searching around, if it's abandonware I can upload it for archival and preservation reasons.
