In a month, I will have had Alan Wake in my Steam library for a decade without having finished it yet. (aussie.zone)

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.

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.

They are the only games I am okay with any form of live action video, they deliver such a twilight zone vibe that it fits their style.
