I beat the main storyline in Control last week the ashtray maze was fuckin cool and I didn’t realize that the AWE dlc was integrated into the main game. It was a weird tone shift while I was doing a bunch of side missions for the xp when out of nowhere Alan Wake starts getting inserted into everything. I never played Alan Wake but the AWE dlc doesn’t make me want to. The Foundation dlc is not bad, and I like the setting of when the Oldest House is first discovered and everyone is trying to make sense of it. . Overall it’s a great game and I love how Jesse isn’t the kind of protagonist going “what the gently caress is happening” every 5 mins. She actually seems to be enjoying and thriving in the Oldest House.

Powerful Two-Hander posted:It even made me briefly want an rtx card to replace a completely not poo poo 1070ti because the Ray tracing looks amazing. i went from a 1070ti to a 2080 super (usually soon upgrade due to other issues) and while nice is still incredibly well-done without rtx. the lighting and reflections are overall better, but the engine is no slouch and during play they're nearly the same haveblue posted:the AWE dlc tries to pull a switcheroo and retroactively make control part of the alan wake story instead of the other way around, which is lame its very much a teaser to aw2 and thats both exciting and frustrating because it'll probably be a few years. there's a bunch of flavor text to try to tie the two together in the base game but until the dlc it felt like easter eggs they set the connection up in aw: american nightmare and quantum break, apparently, but ive never played either i think all their series are easter egg connected in some way which is kind of fun but this is the first direct connection between any of them

I remember when Alan wake was used as the demo for the first quad core chips or something and then it still didn't come out for like another 3 years

Alan Wake kinda sucks. The game-play is tedious and the story is rear end. The only good thing is when the guy shows up in the Christmas light armour.

i like how their internal placeholder name for the new dlc was "alan wake expansion" and they couldn't come up with a better name so they just backronymed it into "altered world event"

alan wake is definitely boring me, which is disappointing since i loved 'control' but my brain is also poisoned from 'deadly premonition' which is also clunky but has the benefit of having a fantastic story/lived-in open-worldy thing going on that does the 'twin peaks' schtick a lot better

lol I've been enjoying MATN's 'YOLO' run of Fallout4 - played on survival mode and you are not allowed to use any healing or other med items, so any health you lose is gone forever - and this bit from tonight's episode where he goes off-script and decides to rile up some supermutants had me lmao'ing https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=732fCI7Vgo8&t=3912s if you're looking for something to while away some time this has been a fun playthrough from day one.

I don't know how it's even possible but for a long time I conflated Many a True Nerd and Mitten Squad. Then one time I was just thinking "wait, he's American now?" and checked my Youtube history and went  They don't even sound anything alike otherwise.
