Not really seeing the connection besides it being from the same studio and the main character having a supernatural ability (which is everywhere these days in media). The setting and premise looks infinitely more interesting to me than QB's.

I've only seen one gamplay vid, and that's my hot take. Lots of clipping and environmental weirdness I'm not seeing this as an improvement on Quantum, so far.....
What do we know about post launch content? Pre-ordered the Limited Edition which features post launch content.
I'm ready to support you Remedy.
Ahahahah and some Alan Wake remaster.

On PS4? If so, I think that will give you two story expansions down the line.
Sounds awesome. I like when things this level weird in games and isn't as straightforward as your usual games. Really looking forward to this one.
Yeah, it got some rave previews. Example:

Thanx. I didn't even know it was there. But great to know!
Edit: wow, sounds really good.

Unusually gushy article from Eurogamer to a rather mundane side mission, but I can appreciate the author's enthusiasm for the narrative style.
Was hoping we'd see some boss footage by now.
My god that eurogamer preview sounds awesome! Feels like I've been waiting for a game like this forever.
I wish I could preorder but console controls and shooters always make me hesitant. I'll wait for a few words on how it controls (...) with a game pad and then decide between ps4 and pc.

Hey all!
I was lucky enough to play for about four-hours recently in a preview session. My hands-on started from the beginning through to the end of the fourth mission.
For my spoiler-free preview you can head here.
Enjoy! (I hope :) )

getting pretty hyped for this game. read that "first two hours" piece on the ps blog and it sounds pretty tasty. really want to dig in already as i'm getting pretty bored with my games right now. two more weeks. ;_;
Cannot wait! Pre-ordered my Digital Deluxe Edition on PSN the other day. Give me the whole package Remedy goodness right into my veins!
Triangle to melee...Odd
Love Remedy, so I'll play it no doubt.
Watching the video makes me want some of the abilities in Quantum Break.
I'd like to see this game's style smashed together with Quantum Break and Max Payne. Basically pull the best of all 3 together into one amazing game. Heck, throw in the Alan Wake story/mystery style with it too. A focused open world, indoor and out, with scary freaky stories and settings with tons of weapons, a mystery to solve, and powers where you can slow time and bullets....while using force powers to throw things around.
Now I'm excited for something that doesn't exist, lol.

I did a quick online search and found nothing other than an Amazon link that says 4k HDR for Xbox One X (I'll take that with a grain of salt). The game is begging for the expanded lighting/colors that HDR offers that's for sure. Hopefully we'll find out at Gamescom that it supports HDR.
it won't. asked the dev already.
That's a real bummer. :( Doesn't decrease my psyche for the game though (too much).
Just started Quantum Break. Love the integration of tv episodes into the story. And I like the stories and atmosphere Remedy have been going for in their games. Much more interesting and cohesive that the real tv episodes, we have nowadays. Quick question regarding Expected Auto Download date on PSN 08/25/19. Is it for preloading or when I can download and play the full game ?
There is a progression system, yes. There are resources you collect and use to upgrade your weapons and abilities.
yeah embargo is up on the 26th, day before release.
nope
I think I read the campaign is 10-15 hours, which is a bit disappointing.
I have fond memories of the Max Payne games and as such, I'm looking forward to this quite a bit. However... if you are expecting a long campaign, you may be disappointed.
What world are we living in where this amount of time is considered to be "disappointing"?
Alan Wake on average for most players is 10-12 hours. Quantum Break was 10 hours (when you include TV shows, I believe). All the Max Payne games are 10-12 hours too.
There's nothing worse than a game that overstays it's welcome. I'd argue that if you did everything in Control, including reading all the supplemental stuff you find about the place, it'd maybe be longer than Remedy's other games.
For what it's worth, Remedy estimates between 10-20 hours.

I don't consider that disappointing in any way at all, if anything I welcome this as that's the perfect length for me.
