Today’s game is Alan Wake. I got back to it and finished Episode 5. Tomorrow the power will be out and I’m hoping to clean through Episode 6 entirely and start the DLCs (possible thanks to my Steam Deck).
Episode 5 ramps up the difficulty a lot I feel like, but not to an unfair level. I think the only part I struggled with to an unfair degree was a jump while being chased by the tornado in the screenshot. The power plant is also really fun to play through because you can push enemies into powerlines to kill them.
I also found another red chair out of bounds in the start of Episode 6. The player could never see it in normal play through I think. I’m wondering if maybe it’s a twin peaks reference or a developer in joke.
I actually bought the game because I really like what remedy does, other wise I’ve ignored epic completely. I dont blame anyone who pirates it, game was AWESOME and the more that play it the better.
I’m honestly the same way. I was fully expecting to just forget a day, and though I’ve had some close calls just because life got in the way, I’m happy I’ve gotten this far
SteamDB says it usually drops to around $2-3 around sales time. If you’re a PC gamer that’s when I’d recommend to pick it up. Epic has a remaster too, but I can’t vouch for that because I’ve never played it

I loved Alan Wake. I’m still waiting on my copy of Alan Wake 2 because I refuse to buy it from Epic.
You’ll probably be waiting a very long time then considering the game was published and funded by epic games.
How’s the sailing weather? As long as it isn’t cloudy with a chance of Denuvo they should be fine
Already sailing

Man I wish I had it on GoG or steam though.
i wanted to like alan wake, but just couldn’t get into it. might have something to do with having played control before i tried alan wake
I’ve heard some people say they don’t like the controls and linearity of it, which I could see. Especially the controls. Maybe it’s one of those?
Wow, you’ve gone at least 50 more days than I would (because I’m forgetful).
I’m honestly the same way. I was fully expecting to just forget a day, and though I’ve had some close calls just because life got in the way, I’m happy I’ve gotten this far
A favorite of mine!
Alan Wake is definitely in my Top 10 games. Possibly holding the #1 spot even
My man ATTICUS!
Let’s go for 100
Always wanted to play this
