As a huge Alan Wake fan, I'm sad to read the expansion was a disappointment :(
Does it give hints about a possible Alan Wake 2 at least?
Exactly my experience! Played through it and got the plat but honestly the game isn't memorable in any way.It's a cool game, and I love its setting and aesthetic, but it didn't come anywhere close to living up to the hype to me. Bland gameplay, bad boss fights, lore that's multiple notches below the SCP, etc. People really pumped up how great the ashtray maze sequence was, which just didn't do anything for me.
I honestly can't understand how someone can possibly think this game isn't memorable in any way.Exactly my experience! Played through it and got the plat but honestly the game isn't memorable in any way.
I generally found the combat repetitive, many of the enemies generic, and the technical performance poor (on PS4). I'm actually genuinely surprised people liked the game. I guess I'm living in a bubble.I honestly can't understand how someone can possibly think this game isn't memorable in any way.
Like, nothing from the game stuck with you? Like, not even conceptually or aesthetically? How many other games like Control are there out there that I don't know about?
There is a VAST amount of individuals claiming the game is overrated or "meh" both here and in other gaming communities. Not sure where you've been...The hell? Control is extremely highly regarded both in Era as in pretty much every gaming community, not really sure where you saw the "meh" or negative reactions? lol
Were you looking just at the paid next gen upgrade threads?
Oh it does give give but I recommend not looking into it. I'm also a huge Alan Wake fan but it was painful getting the tease of what it could be about but with no game confirmation.As a huge Alan Wake fan, I'm sad to read the expansion was a disappointment :(

I've been in no rush to play this game since its release because all I've heard is how mediocre/overrated it was, how generic AAA it feels, etc.
Man. I wish you could see this game with raytracing doing its thing. It is a whole other experience.
This section was hype as fuck.
The ultimate edition is on sale , that has the current gen and next gen version included. Performance and fidelity (raytracing) modes next year for the next gen version.Does it have upgrades on the Series X? I see it's on sale so I might grab it.
Only missing both trophies for doing the Board Countermeasures and they, uh, kinda suck.
I didn't even get the one for doing 5 during the whole game and I'm supposed to do 25??
ooooh interesting.What I did was turn on 1-hit kills in the options menu and accept then abandon countermeasures until you get the ones for killing enemies with certain gun types. Goes pretty quickly once you get going.
And Platinum get. Both DLCs beaten (not 100% though, some of these trophies are super hard and will probably check a guide.)
What a fantastic experience all around. I'll be there day 1 for a sequel.
Does anybody know any good videos or essays about the Remedy-verse? I'd love to catch up with it.
