I’m interested in the Alan Wake expansion but the story for the main game was garbage. Poorly written, incredibly dry monologues from characters just explaining the world and the horribly convoluted story. No memorable characters whatsoever. Remedy has really fallen far since Max Payne 1 and 2 and Alan Wake. Maybe they can redeem themselves with the expansion.
The shooting is great in Control and the game looks really good but the map is atrocious, there’s tons of backtracking and most of the office building type world is completely bland. It was just such a letdown. Clearly with the games low sales and more gamers being interested in the DLC tied to Alan wake than the actual game maybe they should’ve just made Alan Wake 2 intead.
