QB is probably one of remedy's weakest games honestly. it has some tie ins with AW2, but they had to change a bunch of names and recast a character because Lance Reddick died. The new guy kills it though.

Also it is "technically" not actually part of the Remedy universe due to rights issues, a version of rhe MC exists in the Remedyverse, but he's just a reference and afaik doesn't have powers.

aw2 is worth a playthrough. cool atmosphere especially if you like Twin Peak style stuff.

She got race-swapped, she's supposed to be scandinavian.
There's a scene where a guy identifies that she's swedish... because of a SWEATER she wears.

I hear alot of conflicting takes on the Alan Wake games. Repetitive combat being one of them. Worth playing - and should I absolutely start at 1? Spoonfeed me please.

For reference I love SH (the ones that aren't dogshit)
>>
>>749533668
the combat is repetitive and mid in all of them. even max payne, slowmo got old fast. id say remedies strongest card is their art direction, so if ure into hdr and rt implementaions i can recommend u alanwake 2.

if ure that kinda story nut that likes readon 100s of lore sheets to speculate about and piece together the meaning of the plot then u can play alan wake 2 and the control games too. it all kinda ties together.

and having played all remedy games i can guarantee u that the black version of saga is very out of place in how they produce and write their characters. they care about a certain vibe and aestethic, this black chick is not it.
>>
>>749532710
IT'S PAYNE

>>749533668
>Repetitive combat being one of them.
It is a solutely repetitive and as the other anon says, kinda mediocre.

I still liked 1 a lot tho.
>>
>>749533668
Alan Wake 1 is "We have Stephen King at home"
Alan Wake 2 is "We have David Lynch at home(kinda but not really)"
think of that what you will but the combat sucks in both
>>
>>749533668
My answer isn't going to be helpful at all but Remedy games are only enjoyable for people who find them enjoyable, they don't have a universal appeal.
Objectively they're kind of mid, but they have a certain unique charm to them.
>>
>>749534167
In aw2 release period there was like a group of people who were adamant they cannot get anything out of a games narrative
So aw2 with mystery and people talking and notes to read = 0/10
>>
>>749533587
Her mom is Swedish her dad is black its not that complicated
>>
>>749534581
That's really really gross to think about

Control Resonant is objectively fucking great
>>
>>749534618
Why?
>>
>>749533668
They're both fun games that excel in atmosphere and AW2 is just a really smooth, polished game that sucks you in

Quantum break is fun if you get into the story, I went in completely blind. Too many sequel hooks and those fucking collectables/power upgrade points ruin the vibe.

Yeah it was from before AAA games were allowed to be walking sims so they shoehorned in combat.

I dont think ill ever get over this race swap enough to give AW2 a try. Maybe if the were to add a skin with the OG Saga? I dont know. Also from what i hear, Alan Wake isnt even the main character of his own game in the 2nd game. So thats double the reason to hate it.

Still a crazy name to pick if you are obsessed with nordic mythology

Resident Evil 9 unironically ripped off Alan Wake 2. It's the same narrative structure. You play as both Alan and Saga and you need to alternate between them.

Yeah but she wears a jacket with glow-in-dark "FBI", a literal glowie
>>
>>749535234
There will never be another Max Payne game so that's kinda moot point
>>
>>749535259
There's too many similarities between RE9 and AW2, and the swapping between chapters is just one of them.
They also both have similar inventory and weapon upgrades. Even gun charms.
Both games are also covered in shameless fanservice and references.

I smiled when Ahti the Janitor showed up though
>>
>>749535148
Yeah, but grace is actually hot anon, so i dont mind playing as her. Grace also wasn’t randomly race swapped. I get what you are saying, but its not a good comparison. Trust and goodwill just aren’t there for AW2/Remedy.

If there's ever Alan Wake 3 Alex Casey better sound like Ahti

>>749532625
Alan Wake 1 is one of my favourite games of all time because of the vibe it created. I feel like Alan Wake 2 screwed that up with the multiple perspectives angle they took. Just really pulled me out of the spooky feeling the first game had in spades.
Oh and the first interaction you have between Saga and this black couple from out of town is one of the most obnoxious pieces of dialogue I have ever come across and shifted my perspective of her from neutral to downright annoying.
>>
>>749535465
>They also both have similar inventory and weapon upgrades.
Because Alan Wake 2 ripped off RE2 remake.

that was a good noir game, and it was good bcs of the writing. the only reason the gameplay was considered good by standards back then is bcs it was novel. u wouldnt think it were good if u played it today.

Nah, the gameplay holds up.

The gameplay definitely holds up, and I replay the whole franchise now and then.

>>749535105
race swap is least of its problem
you mostly play as her with short alan wake sections

but the biggest problem is that its boring as fuck, badly written mess, Sam Lake didnt improve one bit as a writer and still cant string together a coherent narrative with a proper ending, so they had to patch in an ending in a DLC, same shit they had to do to Control
if your story is so bad your gameplay better be good, but its very shallow and repetitive

also the race swap makes less sense as the game goes on and thee is more and more indications that saga is supposed to be a white nordic woman, yet shes clearly as day black, since they didnt bother to change the plot after the race swap, they did add lines where she complains about white people though, they had time to do that
>>
>>749537879
Post the remedys dei chart featuring saga, funniest shit ever.

Sam lake alsodonated to some troon group.

Remedy is dead to me

>>749532625
if black people are primary characters in any game made after 2012 I do not play it. simple as.
>>
>>749538242
This game is 24 years old.
I'd hazard a guess that 90% of people who made this probably don't work at remedy anymore or have been promoted to non-dev positions.
They didn't make a good game since Alan Wake 1.

I would have played this game on Epic if this was what she had looked like.

As it is I wouldn't be bothered to spend 5 bucks on steam for it.

>>749532625
I really hate the last second niggering of the protag. First her being the blackest bitch while canonicslly having to be 50% white was just stupid and took away from the whole finding her family thing but even worse she couldn't act for shit. Everyone around her hamming it up and she does her best impression of the down syndrome novelty cast of a special victims episode. This was the one time were niggerfying with dabura wilson would have been better because she at least can act so competently that the reaction to your daughtet dying isn't the same as your jam toast landing upside down. This nigger was so bad at acting, that the depressive german bread would have been able to convey more emotion in the role while feeling less out of place.
In some scenes it would have been more thrilling to have cast drying paint for the role.
