Alan Wake II

Theres a lot to say about this game, the biggest thing for me is how amazing the narrative plays into the actual gameplay. With Sagas section of the game it feels more like a normal horror/crime/action game with some of the best scenery and incredible rich atmosphere where you are in investigation of a town as an FBI Agent. I don't get into spoilers. But Alan's side of the game is what really stood out to me. It truly makes you feel like you're in a twisted storybook or feverish nightmare. The story takes you into the Dark Place, where Alan Wake was taken back in 2010. From the second you wake up in the Late Night studio you learn quickly how mind boggling this game gets. Absolutely loved it the whole game is genius.

I'm sort of in the middle of the game i have to admit it alan wake was allways something to me when it was released back to 2010 till 2023 and it's sequel .

Alan Wake II has an atmospheric and haunting story , environment and characters are well made even side characters , pitch and complexity of the story reminds me of david lynch's movies . I've never exprienced such as this. This is a game and in the same time it is NOT ! It is a tv show that you are part of it ! Sam lake the creator of alan wake continue his work and it was really good that he was also in the game ! His voice is so powerfull and also alex casey is dependable character that even could have his stand-alone spin-off .

Alan Wake II is a really great title and i'm happy that i'm expriencing it ...

Remedy have long been a favourite studio of mine, always pushing the boat out in terms of creativity, story telling, and gameplay. Here, they shine with their best work yet, building on the universe they began to build with their last game, Control, delivering a story I couldn't stop thinking about and a world I couldn't stop exploring. The original Alan Wake was a game I would always defend, not limited by its sometimes repetitive gameplay and flaws, as it was unlike anything I had ever played before. With Alan Wake 2, Remedy delivers masterful survival horror, balanced with a gripping psychological thriller and truly groundbreaking storytelling. If that isn't enough, the gameplay and graphics are pushing the bounds of anything we have seen before on current gen. A must play.

This is just pure excellence! All of the fans who waited for more than 10 years will have a great time playing this game. Alan Wake 2 submerges you into a world of mystery, thrilling adventure and psychological horror. Every bit of the game unfolds in a brilliant pattern that just doesn't get boring. The graphics feel almost as if you are playing a movie. The gameplay might be challenging at times, but the story makes up for it big time. Don't listen to the people who give it bad reviews, do yourselves a favor and just dive right in. I rarely buy games just for the story, and since I bought this, I can happily assure you that the money was well spent!

All in all, the second installment beats the first one hands down. I loved Alan Wake 1, but Alan Wake 2 just edges the first one, thus takes the crown from its predecessor. This game has a huge potential to win GOTY as it's just a terrific game!

I haven't finished the game yet, but until now the game has been amazing. It curtainly is not sandbox-game like GTA and RDR2, and I think it's part of it's strength. I don't want to spoil anything for players, so I don't want to reveal too much about the plot.

I want to give props for all team but especially for actor Ilkka Villi, I think he has made incredible job in this game. His confusion during the studio-scene made me too confused as hell. Only thing that bothers me that they have changed his voice (seeing his work in Sorjonen etc, it just feels weird). If you havent seen his work before you wouldn't even notice this.

All in all, this game is something unusual and special. Although I'm definitely seeing this through white-and-blue-glasses (I'm finnish), I think this is the most absorbing game I have ever played. You just want to continue the story to find out more.

Congrats to makers, and I hope other players find it as great as I have found!
