I dropped the first game specifically because of the "combat." I'd give Alan Wake II a try if it was a different mechanic.
I haven't finished it yet, but AW2 is a dramatic step up in the entire experience. They still "pay homage" to the original combat, but there aren't nearly as many enemies. If you're familiar with the Control story and like that universe, I'd say it's a must play.
