The Outerhaven writes: Remedy Entertainment has stated that despite Alan Wake 2 being its fastest-selling game, it has yet to recoup its development costs. Here are a couple of reasons why this might be.
Alan Wake 2’s new Night Springs DLC is an excellent reminder of how great the Max Payne remakes are likely going to be on PS5 and Xbox.
Just when you thought you had escaped the tenebrous fever dream of Bright Falls and its haunted woods, the new “Night Springs” downloadable expansion for Alan Wake 2 pulls you back...
WOW! What an incredible amount of words to say so little.
A bizarre, verbal onslaught "review" that tries so hard to be eloquently whimsical in its writing to cover the fact it doesn't really contain any content. Other than the self explanatory and rehashing what we already know...
Someone's either trying really hard to impress someone at the office or this was written by AI.. Tone it down a bit, It'll give people less of a headache.
Alan Wake II: Night Springs veers from ultra violence to tense survival horror, before settling into the multiversal madness of the series at its best.
The NightSpring DLC was evidently crafted for enthusiasts of Remedy games, with each episode drawing from a distinct Remedy experience. The "Number 1 Fan" story allows you to play as Rose, designed to mirror the over-the-top action of AW American Nightmare. It earns extra points for featuring Mr. Scratch and concluding in a manner reminiscent of AW American Nightmare, notably with a nod to Alice's dress from the game.

In Episode 2, the narrative continues with Jesse's quest to locate her brother, aided by Polaris. The Hiss have transformed into the 'Coffee people,'
Episode 3 represents Remedy's finest effort to link Quantum Break to the AW universe without explicitly naming Quantum Break. The actor notes that the sequel they are filming should include FMV sequences similar to the first game, and Sam Lake describes how he is destined to become a superhero. Sean Ashmore's narration is a direct nod to Quantum Break, akin to Jesse's inclusion in this episode

That's pretty much hitting the nail on the head.
Not releasing on Steam especially for PC gamers I think is the bigger of the two points affecting figures, but it certainly would've helped having a physical edition out on store shelves with a slight sale for Black Friday shortly after release.
Here's hoping after the Expansions they'll bring it out to at least Steam. With retailers like Best Buy ending all physical media though, I doubt there'll be a disc out unless Remedy can do what Larian did with BG3
for me?
cause its digital only.
and their "excuse" that puttingnit on a disc would make the game a 70 dollar game.
No physical and no steam you lose 2 chunks of players off the top. It’s an Epic published games so I get why they didn’t release on steam but no physical was dumb.
An excellent game not selling well is so sad.. Theres a lot of game deserved not to sell well like cod mw3 for example. But this game is not. The last redemption should be released on steam and disc.. That should be another half to million at best i think.
They need a physical edition, simply put
Give us a collectors edition with a steelbook aswell and I’d buy it
