Alan Wake 2

Sam Lake:

Shoots ongoing with our stellar cast of actors. We’ve written a ton of pages with
@yourpalclay, more than ever, I think (this story is a monster). More to come still after a short summer break from this dark place called the writers’ room.

[AngainorG7X]

Yes

[Gridknac]

Well to be honest, the story was the "monster" in the first one! LOL

[ShadowWolf712]

More a conduit for it, really.

[ClayRules2012]

I’m looking forward to it!

[RaidenBlack]

This gen is doing the AAA horror resurgence just fine.
Keep 'em coming.

Condemned criminal orgins remaster would be sick. I don’t even remember who made that game lol. But Xbox should fund that exclusive again. I would prefer multi platform but a Publisher is going to have to kickstart that dead franchise or it won’t happen at all. MS did it for 360, I don’t even think that launched on PC but I could be wrong. I know bloodshot was multi

[RaidenBlack]

Monolith. And their iconic lithtech engine.
Criminal Origins was on PC. Not knowing what I was getting into, I got pretty scared whilst playing the game.
The dumbed down sequel, Bloodshot was console exclusive.
Sadly they've moved on. No more games from the iconic FEAR, NOLF or Condemned franchises.
Now they're doing strictly WB licensed games. Mordor and now the upcoming Wonder Woman title.

[babadivad]

The creepiest game I've ever played. Literally the only game that had me legitimately "scared" while playing.

What they did with audio and visual to amplify the atmosphere of insanity was superb.

[sourOG]

Monolith that’s right. Condemned and fear to Wonder Woman lol… explains why I forgot. Well now we know who Ms needs to buy next. Pick up netherrealm and save rocksteady while your at it.

@baba
Same here. My favorite horror game easily.

[MrBaskerville]

@Raidenblack
And even worse, no good sequel to Blood.

They have a great catalog, a shame it's going to waste.

[MajorLazer]

Loved the first.

[aaronaton]

More pages = better story? Have I just awaken from a 20yr coma?

[FlavorLav01]

Have some faith in Sam Lake. What game has he failed to deliver on an amazing an original experience. He’s one of the few with an untarnished resume.

[jBlakeeper]

I’m really looking forward to this game, but I anticipate a delay to 2024.

[sourOG]

I’m looking forward to it. I just recently platinumed the remaster and had a blast. It was even cooler knowing what I know after playing control. It will be cool to see how they tie the control stuff into AW2.

[EmperorDalek]

Let's hope it ends better than Control, It was so good up to that point. The horror elements were great.

[babadivad]

Control was the biggest letdown of an ending I can remember. Despite the cheap enemy encounters, I was vested in the story. It was so interesting and I wanted to see it through only for it to end in a dud.

[AuraAbjure]

I really need to play the American Nightmare DLC from the first game.

[coolbeans]

American Nightmare is technically its own side-quel" but I'd easily recommend it.

[Ninver]

Yeah we'll see.

[Demetrius]

I hope so cause part 1 of Alan wake was the shit 😎😎😎 and u know what’s crazy when I played days gone it slick reminded me of Alan wake at times

[SDuck]

I couldn't force myself to finish Days Gone when I tried it

[babadivad]

I loved Alan Wake but I'd much rather have a sequel to Quantum Break before this.

[giovonni]

I agree, Quantum break’s story was stellar. The tv show wasn’t as bad as they say. Plus the ending left it open for another

[babadivad]

Ending left me hyped for more.

[giovonni]

Man, look how how far Alan Wake came. It went from being hated on for being an exclusive to a sleeper hit, to now being one of the most anticipated games to come out. I hope they keep the same formula of the first with Twilight zone-ish content you find to flush out the story more.

[Blaze929]

Can't wait

[mastershredder]

I hope they make Alan likable. I like the idea behind the story and setting in the first one, but Alan is a complete douche canoe. I did not find the game to be scary at all, it was such a rinse and repeat chore. I would rather that Alan have a horrible end and demise because his character sucked and he deserved the worst. Part of this was due to the monotone voice actor who sounded nonchalant throughout the game. The rest was spoiled by the goofy writing with a jerk Novelist treating a small town like incompetent annoying peons. Hard to give a f about that dude, his girl or what his happens next when you mix it with atrocious combat gameplay. I’d explore bright falls without Alan any day. Please give this series an control/play and character overhaul and voice talent with range.

[pietro1212]

Well the first game wasn’t a horror game. Alan Wake 2 is Remedy first survival horror

[pietro1212]

Hyped. I loved the first one and it helped me discover the wonderful worlds of Twin Peaks and X Files

[Stuart5756]

It's announced but they're still writing it? Could be a while then
