    You forgot to mention that it's heavily implied that Door is Saga's father. When Saga asks Tor if she knew her father, his reply was; "There are some doors best left closed." Even when Alan meets Door for the last time, he drops the act. Pissed off at Alan for "dragging someone who shouldn't be here."

On top of good storytelling, GOTY means it should have mechanically fulfilling gameplay loops, remain fun and engaging in a way that really hooks the player. In these aspects, AW2 does it well but not better than some of the games this year. It is also very niche. Easily best narrative though.

    I think it's weird everybody keeps missing Ahti says Alan wrote him into the story. Ahti a powerful supernatural being was forced into this thing is awesome. Not only that if you play Control 1 and think about when they said Ahti appears and it lines up with the end of Alan Wake one when he goes "It's an ocean" and Ahti is the god of oceans. Not to mention during control 1 Ahti says he is going on vacation and leaves a post card stating he is heading for Bright falls. If Alan is strong enough to get Ahti in the story, I think Alan may be the strongest amongst them. Alot of people think this happens after Control 1 but they miss Ahti on vacation and the fact that the oldest house is still in chaos until every Hiss is found and killed and that their instruments are not working correctly and that's why they have no real back up The FBC were already on their way from a satellite office and the warning from Control 1 at the end of the Alan Wake DLC is still way in the future. Maybe its me but has anyone also notice the power of 3 in so many characters in this game.

    It isn't in my opinion that Alan wrote Ahti in the story. More like Thomas Zane wrote Ahti in his film Nightless Night. Also Ahti probably just went with it like Mr. Door said he went along with Alan's writing implying he didn't have to. Also Ahti seems to be more like stabilizing force between the fights of light and darkness in the universum (in the sea of multiverse) hence the god of sea. That's why you see him guiding the player like a sailor in the sea.

    Regardless of the bugs, the twist was really good and I enjoyed this game a lot, the imagery and very excited for control 2 or Alan Wake DLC. 41:22 I’m upset too, waited 13 years for Alan to finally escape just to get bamboozled with oh no that’s mr scratch to get a twist with no that’s actually Alan, doing all of these twist and turns just for him to be right back at the place he escaped, I wouldn’t be pissed off if i didn’t wait that many years just to be at square one again with Alan, so many things unanswered (some I’m fine with, some I’m not) these are one of the stories that is so good it pisses you off In my opinion I would’ve been fine with Alan finally escaping and reuniting with Alice but works with the FBC to finally destroy the dark presence and help them study more about various dimensions and how to conquer them and Reveal Jesse asking for Alan’s help.

    So even though we see another version of Return in this game, I have a strong feeling that the entirety of Alan Wake 2 is supposed to be the overarching plot's Initiation. Alan has not yet been able to escape truly but by the end it seems like he has gained the tools and knowledge he needs to finally make it happen. My favorite kind of second act endings (near the end of a character's initiation) are the ones where the characters are physically worse off than they've ever been but have gained something (knowledge, power, friendship) that gives them the will to push through to the ending. We now have even more people trapped in the dark place, but collectively they've got a lot of skills between them and now know quite a bit about the way things operate down there Running with this interpretation makes me really like the ending. It's not a loop, it's a spiral.

    The best twist about the game could have been the Logan was actually dead. Saga was really trying to pretend that didn't happened. Sad that by showing her daughter pic on the phone it is very likely that Logan IS alive in her reality. If she had been dead she wouldn't have a phone (not old enough) or to have a number to call to.

    I heard everything you said and have seen every cutscene of this game and I'm still confused and intrigued. SPOILERS: Yes, it sucks that Alan Wake can't seem to get out after all this time but isn't that the heavy price he had to pay for being the hero of his own horror story. At this point I'm not sure if there's a happy ending for him. He literally got out just to go back in. He was only able to enjoy it for like 665 seconds I think. He came off to me as such an asshole in the first game but now I'm starting to feel bad for him.

It was like they were saying the lines and then they cut out the audio and used voice over to add the voices. That's not even mentioning Alan's stupid 0o0 face through the ENTIRE game in the live action cutscenes. Every scene he is in, in the live action scenes he's making THAT same face with his mouth open.

    life) - but a bit of change and not “looping”’creates the light they seek and to break the chain. You see this with Alan, Casey, saga , etc. it seems like the writers wanted to make this into a game about searching for the intuition to be present and not continue over thinking in a loop as an analogy to the real life we can find ourselves in. The darkness seems to be an analogy for the darkness we can pay attention to or simply shine a light on to dissipate. You hear Alan say multiple times “ the dark place works in loops and rituals” - these rituals being the ocd habits of repeating the same actions hoping for a different result. As we do as humans at times. Also, toward the end of the game saga is stuck in her own mind - the game had gradually led her to lose faith in her own belief more and more and doubt her story (if her kid was dead) - such as an analogy to life and faith and self doubt - just some thoughts - I thought it was brilliant if that’s what they intended - Atleast I’m happy to have gained that from this art work!

    Neat idea but could you take Alan's book 2, Initiation, as the literal representation of this game? He describes initiation as a process, the gateway between the beginning and the end. The end credits of this game have Alice in the dark places, helping Alan navigate out. This game is that process, this is book 2 initiation. Book 3 return, could be the biggest hint at an Alan Wake 3 being the final installment in Alan's journey.

    I'm guessing some Mr.Door DLC around the corner! Many open answers to fill in. And with the connected Remedy universe, the future is bright. Imo the last act felt a bit rushed, compared to the overall pacing of the other chapters, but still one of the best story driven adventures out there! I never buy games on launch as most companies are there to disappoint, but Remedy has it under CONTROL ;) Can't wait for another Sam Lake adventure, Max Payne anyone?

    Saga = Trinity Alan = Neo Alice = The Oracle Mr Doors = The Merovingian Zane = The Architect Ahti = The Keymaker The Dark Presence/Scratch = Mr Smith The spiral= The cycle Mr Doors and Ahti even talk about moving between realities, just as The Merovigian and Keymaker did. Alice talks of having to manipulate Alan to reset the spiral, just as The Oracle does. Scratch has to take over a human host to try and escape, just as Mr Smith did. Zane talks about "ascending" and escaping the loop rather than resetting it, just as The Architect did. I'm amazed more people cant see this ha

    The ending is a bit stretch. There is no plan B, what if Alan's death doesn't change for the better? There is no way to fix it. But if Saga will be the sacrificing hero, Alan might still have a chance to fix it. well, I do know that due to being minority and woman, she can't be the sacrifice, which weaken the believability of the story in my opinion though.

    I dont think that there enough evidence backing up idea of Alice creating the Dark Place. The power to bring life to the works of art comes from the Dark Place. Alice while she created her exhibition wasnt in the Dark Place herself and as far as we know she didnt obtain any object of power such as the Clicker which could give her artworks powers to change reality or to create one (such as the Dark Place). In other words, this theory has cause-and-effect problem which has nothing to do with time loops and leaves a question: By what means Alice's works of art could create the Dark Place? P.S. I also tend to believe that Tim Breaker and Warlin Door are going to be characters in their own title.

    writers wife made suicide and that caused the writer to go into a dark place, writing twisted stories as a coping mechanism to work with emotions, but being incapable of making good ending to the story and just spiraling repeating the same story but with minor tweaks while healing and seeing another ways to advance both in story and in his emotions to get away from depression aka dark place

    I'm conflicted with the game. Alan's sections were the most interesting story wise and visually incredible. But his gameplay was boring 80% of the time with almost no worthwhile puzzles and lacking enemy variety and encounters (no bosses. Wtf). And the power ups you find don't actually have a significant impact. I was invested in Alan's story since the first game, and was eager to see how he ultimately escapes from the dark place. I liked his story overall, but he still felt sidelined in his own game. Saga's sections are the opposite. Fun exploration, meaningful upgrades, some fun optional puzzles, better enemies and some bosses. Meanwhile I just don't enjoy Saga's character. Game largely has a serious tone, but she behaves much more like a highschool teenager than an FBI agent while cracking corny jokes like it's a recent Marvel movie. This just made me miss Barry Wheeler who actually had a fun personality and funny jokes. I was baffled that Saga just knows everything with no logical ways to her conclusions. Example, she asks where Nightingale came from, and she immediately knows he came from the lake. I mean, the player knows that since we saw it. But Saga wouldn't know that. It just seemed like a lazy mechanic to keep the plot moving. Sure, there is a story reason in how she just knows things... But honestly it's not a good reason. It's also disappointing that Saga ended up being the one to fight Scratch. Alan has been scared of him for a while, and it would've been an amazing arc if he faced his fear head on.

This is the first game from Remedy that doesn't have a self.contained story... it's entirely a setup for a bigger story... The first game was self.contained with a beginning and end but left room open for more stories. same with Control, Quantum Break.... this one is sequel bait. Not like Remedy at all.
