I’m finally playing Alan Wake 2 again this week, playing through the Final Draft before doing the DLCs for the first time. Sadly something seems to have gotten borked when I moved PCs and transferred my save manually - only some of the stuff that’s supposed to carry over to NG+ actually carried over. Very strange. I had looked forward to having Saga’s whole arsenal from the start but oh well.

Game is great. Having waited for so long to return to it has only made the experience better, absence makes the heart grow fonder and all that. Having a significantly better PC than last time also only makes the visual splendour more impressive, although I still can’t even come close to playing it maxed out. It’s a gorgeous game, beautiful HDR implementation and just perfect art direction.

I don’t have much to say as I’ve not only already played it, but also just love it. I guess the collectibles are a little unnecessary, grindy and annoying if you want to 100% it. Also the case board stuff is a little tedious on subsequent playthroughs as a lot of it is unskippable. That’s it for notes. Play it if you haven’t already, it’s wonderful. Try playing some previous Remedy games first if you can, the Remedyverse is cool.
