Choosing Epic over Steam and antagonizing the entire physical media fanbase, it's no wonder the masterpiece Alan Wake 2 didn't make a profit.
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

I asked for this game as a gift. My wife couldn't find it at Gamestop, Amazon, or anywhere else.
I didn't realize it was digital only, I just figured it sold out because of the reviews and how good it looks.
Most consumers don't read gaming news daily, how would they know it's digital only?
Plus, outside of seeing it on Jackfrags YouTube channel, I hadn't seen much in the way of marketing.
Unfortunately Remedy has become a bit of a nasty studio over this past decade, You just need to look at their business decisions and other projects they attempted. They are not pro consumer at all.
Oh well. Next.
They did this to save money, but it didn't work.
I wonder if they've learned their lesson? Who am I kidding, of course no gaming company does at this point. Keep making those mistakes.
