Today’s Game is Alan Wake. I finally got a chance to finish Chapter 1 on nightmare mode.
It was surprisingly easy. If you look at my ammo you’ll notice I still have a ton of Shotgun rounds. That’s because I conserved Ammo and fled when I could, hoping to use it in the fight against Stucky. Turns out though, Stucky went down in a couple Flare Gun Shots and took all the other Taken with him.
I also got stuck wandering around in the woods for a while, as it turns out I took a wrong turn. Those woods are like a fucking maze.
The photo I chose for today was of the Gas Station. It felt appropriate as the End of Chapter 1, since that’s where I chose to end my gaming session for today.
I’m going to continue with Chapter 2 tomorrow hopefully though, as it turns out I still have my Alan Wake II save from when I thought I deleted it because it ate my Steam Deck’s battery alive and I’m a few chapters into that, so I’d like to make parity with them before playing parallel (assuming I don’t end up changing my mind).
How much of AW2 do you remember? I strongly suggest starting over so you have everything fresh in your forebrain - it’s a game that wants you to pay attention to detail. Same reason I advocated for playing only it in the other thread and not both in parallel. Though you seem to have an impressive capacity for keeping track of multiple story-games at once (something I can’t even begin to relate to) so your mileage may vary.
I like to keep journals for my game which is (part of) what helps me keep track of all my games. Though, at your suggestion I might hold off, especially with how I forgot how short the first game is (I can probably clear an episode a day, unless nightmare mode suddenly ramps up in difficulty, which I wouldn’t be surprised if it does)
