Just finished the Alan Wake Remaster. Really hated it, but apparently that is an unpopular opinion. I just felt like the story is not as innovative as people say and the mechanics are the same from the start to the finish.
I’m now playing Dredge. Really enjoying that game right now. I’m traveling so my Steam Deck is getting some use. I’ll be switching between Dredge and Cult of the Lamb while I’m away.
I have given Alan Wake so many tries but I get so bored by the whole into sequence. I think it suffers from the many (novel at the time) video game tropes of the late 2000s.
It's odd because I absolutely love Max Payne despite it being much older.
It's a game from 2010... What were you expecting?
The game was outdated when it launched after Uncharted 2.
Something good given the insanely good reviews the original and the remake got. I’m just saying I disagreed and didn’t enjoy the game. What’s your end goal with this comment? Are you agreeing with me? Are you calling me dumb? Are you okay?
The game is 13 years old. You should have tempered your expectations.
The remaster game out a couple years ago and metacritic'ed for 80. So no, I don't think I really needed to "temper my expectations". https://www.metacritic.com/game/alan-wake-remastered/
