If I remember correctly, in Control they suggest that the book series Alan Wake wrote about this Cop are actually real in another reality. The Cop character actually exist in this reality and everything plays out like in the books. And that's just the normal reality there. I took it as, because someone thought of it, in an infinite multiverse, it is a certainty that it happens somewhere just like in his book. So yeah, everything that is possible can and will happen. Just maybe not in your Universe.

Alan Wake has the ability to see visions of things that are real, but he doesn't know that these things are reality. To him they are simply "inspiration." So to him he thinks these are just fictional characters, but unbeknownst to him, they are real people. The Dark Presence just amplified this ability further. That's how he's able to write about Jesse or Alex Casey without knowing them

Mr Scratch sounds like a straight up Stephen king reference. I know Alan wake is very Stephen king, but King wrote a book called The Dark Half where a writer’s evil twin appears and starts killing people and leaving the authors DNA all over the crime scenes.

The fact that it's going to cost more to buy digitally (even after the reduction they announced) than any other game I've bought physically this year (FFXVI, Jedi, Spidey 2, Immortals, etc) is the main reason I'm not getting it. A physical product we can collect, refund, sell, trade, lend, replace, or play before or after a digital store inevitably closes holds far more value than a digital product subject entirely to the whims of platform holders and publishers. I'll either wait for a physical release or buy it on sale when the price matches its restrictions as essentially just an extended rental.

I suggest leaving media entertainment than. Physical media is on its way out as projects exceed the storage space of disks that are financially viable to produce.

Your CS discussion was so interesting to listen to for someone who has been playing it as their main game for 10 years, you're absolutely right that you need patience and to learn from others. We call it "game sense" which just an understanding of whats going to happen next based on whats already happened 1000 times for you. Love to hear it from your perspectives!

90% of Counterstrike advanced play can be attributed to two things Crosshair Placement (keep your crosshair where heads are going to be) And Good Use of utility (flashes and smokes are useless if you are dead) Once you learn these things you can apply them to any map. (ie placing your crosshair at head level on a corner you know they have to come around because you blocked the other off with a molotov)

Hi guys. Love this video. I think you have a very valid comparison of Allan Wake being very Lost and Twin Peaks. I personally love the Wake/Control universe. But I’ll also admit there are several mysteries that aren’t paid off (ala Lost, twin Peaks). It’s a bizarre world that doesn’t always pay off. I love it, but I can totally see the other side. I’m excited for Wake 2 but can fully understand anyone who has reservations. And that’s OK 😉

I don't disagree, but comparing Lost to Twin Peaks is a whole other thing. I'll cut it short but I feel like Lost didn't know what they were doing and Twin Peaks was antagonistic on purpose.

What we need is an Indie Publisher. That itself is a Co-Op of the Indie Studios it publishes for. It'll never happen. But I feel like that model is the only way to enact actual changes to this medium. Because there is no way to get the people who actually make the games, into the Boardroom.

19:40 Alex Casey was Max Payne's original name in 1996, even before Max Heat (which they eventually changed to Max Payne)

I love how meta the conversation is around these games. I'm really excited to get into a big mystery like this!

I'll be checking all the voice acting credits for a Bryce Greane! We're onto you!

I like that they used real footage for the food in Dragon's Dogma 2, Like how Remedy shot the multimedia collectibles in Control.

Scratch had an acknowledgement in Control: AWE. Alice Wake came to the FBC for an interview after reporting that her husband had shown up in her apartment. She caught a photo of "Alan" and it's a really super creepy photo of crazy pants Scratch.

I have been watching you guys since the start of "the company that shall not be named", and I just want to say that the content you make, in groups og solitary, is amazing. Keep up the work!

Coffee world makes sense, being as Sam Lake is deeply inspired by Twin Peaks.

OK someone needs to mod Lawrence as an NPC quest giver when the game comes out. Same voice and everything

27:51 Calculon impression.

I played Alan Wake Remastered on ps a while ago cause it was the free game of the month and I really enjoyed it! I played control before that. But I don't want to get Alan Wake 2 just because I want to wait and upgrade my PC. It looks truly gorgeous and I want to crank it to the max. But I know my PC would be struggling

​@@UniverseGlider2yeah agree. It is a bit dated but that's what you get it when it's an older game. I still like it for what it is.

27:00 Okay that food gives Ignis from FF15 a run for his gil, that food from Dragon's Dogma 2 looks incredible! Also, i need to hurry up and finish Alan Wake and Control before the second game!

Looking forward to hearing the rest of the video. I can't drop full price day 1 for a single player digital only game, basically, for as much as i loved Alan Wake the first

Are you a physical collector or someone who plays a single player game once then sells the game for like $30 online to make some money back?

@@TheAndrewJohnBennett Honestly, a bit of both. I still prefer my games physically as my download speeds are quite poo, helps to play them quicker. But the added ability to potentiality sell if the game isn't to my liking, is also there (:

Best game as long as it was not rushed in development and Remedy held their promise for delivering a polished game since there is no physical release if I find the game is buggy I will get a refund as I will wait for reviews to come out first for ps5 and will be the last time I support them as no physical release is a big no no anti consumer comes from greedy corporations that don’t wamt their game to be sold due to physical copy

Do you realize how poorly Remedy games have sold? This is an effort to cut production costs so that the people who show up when Remedy comes back with something new can still have it and maybe they'll at least break even instead of not

3:10 Scandinavian country? Or Scandinavian countryside in a State of Washington? Although Watery is a town founded by Finnish immigrants and technically Finland isn't part of Scandinavia (it's part of the Nordic Countries or Fennoscandia :P )

The coffee is by bag because that statistic is tracking the importing of green coffee beans.

if there isn't a twin peaks reference in coffee world ill shit butt

If Alan Wake was played by Nic Cage it would turn out different

I agree people won't get as I won't unless the full game comes on disc. I don't pay for games that can't be used after they stop being supported by publisher/devs. I like to have something to show for and NOT time limited digital crap.

I am not convinced the food shots were in engine. They have to had filmed that.

I’m getting this game I can’t wait

YOOO why that food look so good 😋

the best advice ive heard from shroud is aim where they will be.

Can’t wait for Alan wake 2!!

I pre-ordered Alan Wake 2 and I'm so psyched for it! But... if I can't make it through on easy mode, I'm gonna cheat. I'm an adult with finite time and I'm not sorry.

There's no way that food isn't real footage. Look at the fire

"Shadow people?" Yet another one who didn't play Alan Wake 1. They are called: "The Taken."

New to the channel, just looking for Get Alan Wake 2 info since I may buy a 4070 and uhhhh hairy guy in a wife beater shirt giving off Richard Simmons vids... Hmmm lol

I mean it's coming out in a crowded release window. Of course I won't get it. I'll be getting Star Ocean 2 and Marvel's Spider-Man 2 instead.

I've no intention of getting Alan Wake 2, oh hang on you don't mean buying do you?

I got diablo 4 working on my steam deck, with little effort. Most non-steam games can still be played on a steam deck, and you can then launch it as a non-steam game. That’s the benefit of an open machine. The steam deck is a linux pc in a switch-like form factor. It has many abilities some consider to be… unnatural.

That is genuinely some incredible stuff valve is doing, so I love the flexibility with the device. One of my favorite things about it. The thing is, I am so lazy that when I boot up my system I just download whatever is in my library so I can play it.

Yea i am def not playing Wake 2 The first one was okay but stupid, the story was a let down and the gameplay was repetitive and boring

Alan Wake to me was a game that thought it was so much cleverer than it actually was.
