Control: Building Remedy's Shared World

Recently, Remedy Entertainment announced the AWE expansion for Control, which includes not just new content for the player to enjoy, but a tantalizing prospect of a crossover. Control's hero, Jesse Faden, will finally meet long-thought-dead writer and lead of the 2010 psychological thriller, Alan Wake. But how well has Remedy been laying down the foundation for its shared world across its many games?

Interesting game. The biggest flaw was borrowing heavily from the X-Files and other completely incorrect hollywood misconceptions about what the FBI does such as the FBI investigating events (other than criminal), hauntings and the paranormal. The FBI does not and never has investigated paranormal beyond federal criminal law. That part makes if REALLY goofy and hard to swallow this story. FBE whatever, any fictional government agency more like CIA or a whacked out section of homeland security (timeline permitting for some) would have been far more realistic.

This game has VERY GOOD storytelling, This just felt told from a perspective that was researched purely from preexisting entertainment which....is fantasy and gets a lot wrong. Interesting game, pretentious and shallow foundation.

ninja Gaiden being released 8 days apart is insane MS hasn't learned anything with shoulder to shoulder releases. October 29 for Outer Worlds and October 21 for Ninja Gaiden. These games now range from 60 to 80$. Yalls audience might GP it but other platforms have to buy it and your average person won't shell out that kinda money a week apart.

franwex21h ago

Aren’t those games made for different audiences though?

Lightning7713h ago(Edited 13h ago)

Yes but what if you want both?

Not everyone can buy both.

Reaper22_20h ago

Well, you dont have to buy it. Noone is making gamers buy it a week apart. I don't see anything wrong with it.

Lightning7713h ago

You want another Doom The Dark Ages scenario? I'm surprised Oblivion and Expedition 33 did well with a simultaneous release. Clearly that fatigue was definitely felt with Doom.

They need at least 2 weeks apart.

You're talking about a first-person RPG and a third-person action game though. So, it's a bit different than EA putting Titanfall 2 and Battlefield 1 back-to-back.

Last I checked, Ninja Gaiden was published by Koei Tecmo and not MS.

I count 7 original multiplatform IPs, which were ultimately bought and are now published by Microsoft.

Sigh.

If you look closer again, then you'll notice that I, at any point, didn't even mentioned the adjective "bad".

But you.

The "sigh" means your displeased. Don't make excuses why is it bad?

dveio10h ago(Edited 10h ago)

Nope, 'displeased' ain't the feeling I had when reading that article.

But speaking of pleasure:

Are you personally pleased with that line-up Xbox have in store for you in the Series' fifth year?

Edit: I didn't downvote you.

Lightning779h ago

Still making excuses. What's the issue with this?

1Victor1h ago

@light:” What's the issue with this?”

The issue is your thickness a reasonable player would buy one of the two game that are close to each other release and at minimum get it to halfway/finish it and then buy the other at a later time🤦🏿.
Not everyone try to break the speed run record on every game 🫩
