Review by David Jenkins - Remedy Entertainment haven't made a game since Max Payne 2 in 2003 and they didn't announce this until 2005.
It's not too hard then to imagine where the idea of a novelist going on holiday to escape from a bout of writer's block might have come from.
"I really, really, desperately wanted him to start it off."
The story borrowed HEAVILY from the King novel "The Dark Half" anyway. Figured there'd be some sort of lawsuit but seems King was in on and ok with it.
King is well know to be really chill with this kind of thing. And with official adaptations. It's cool and shitty. We have had so many low quality movies.
Shared universes have taken movie fanfare up a notch. It's time gaming adapts to this element and makes mutual game worlds for popular IPs.
Or... you know.... compelling game play. Just because it's a shared universe, does not mean I'm going to enjoy it more. Look at the MCU. Most of it is hot garbage, with just a few stand out, actually entertaining entries.
Between NFTs, blockchain, MTXs, loot boxes, battle passes, slot machine mechanics, and gacha trash, it's a wonder that we even remember what games are supposed to be. Let's focus on creating games that people want to play. Control did very well for itself without being mentioned in the same sentence as Alan Wake, a game that almost no one played.
I think what RemedyVerse needed though, is less screwing with the customer on Pricing and Upgrades.
Oh Ultimate edition...
Was thinking how awesome it is that they've done this. I always found the idea interesting, and it also opens up possibilities to bring characters together or pull them into other worlds. I can imagine Control and Quantum Break coming together and Jesse being confused about Jack.

Is there another one of those 10k point achievement quests this month? They haven't run that in awhile and I haven't seen anything about it.
these guys dont like any game unless its halo related....ef em. Same goes for edge. All of these guys are like over 45 and theres nothing wrong with that its just these guys think they're above it all..pompous twats
If you go by what reviewers say, you will miss out on a great game! Not just AW but all games that gets smashed by them. Peace and Enjoy Gaming!!!!
