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 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

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.

Man I wish I had it on GoG or steam though.

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

Alan Wake is definitely in my Top 10 games. Possibly holding the #1 spot even

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
