Bring it. But hopefully the game is as good as the first AW. Control was a pretty terrible game. Get that metroidvania crap out of my story based games.

Was 99% sure this was the project that they collaborated on with Epic, it just made too much sense. Let's hope this time they deliver the full experience and don't end with another frustrating cliff hanger.

That made the comment even worse.

Which made me think.

You aren't interested in the game. Why are you in this thread? 🤔 had to see if it came to PlayStation so you could determine if the game is great or not?
It is fake... lie... it is not even fun.
I have no ideia what are you implying here lol

EPIC 'Moneyhats' Games eh?, good job i was never keen on the orig game.
Eh there's a difference between moneyhatting a game that was already made for a timed exclusive, it's another to actually produce and publish a title that wasn't getting made. I have no problem with this.

I never got into Alan Wake but I liked Control a whole lot so I might be into this.

Thier last two games were not that great imo. Max Payne is still their best work with Alan Wake not too far behind.
Imo Max Payne 2 was their last good game. They keep remaking the same game, and taking 5 years to do it. Control was sleep inducing.

He's track record has been on point in the last times.


I mean, MS are certified retards to let these people go. Well at least, they now make AW multiplatform, which is nice.

Sometimes things don't work. Imagine MS wanted to give them the money only if they were bought by it and Remedy didn't want it. Or if Remedy would only make the game if MS put the money but make the game multi-plat (PS too) because they want more people to play it. Etc.

So, in this case, MS would do the correct thing, not be douchbags and let go the IP for whatever reason.

I personally like Alan Wake, one of my favourite 360 games, but it had issues like undeveloped plot and unimaginative gameplay. I agree though, Max Payne series is their best work.

Remedy have been independent since the jump.

Epic Games Store - helping me save money by not buying as many games.

Loser detected.
 
Well... at least this is the 'right' way to do exclusives. You publish it, you pick where to sell it.

Still not going to buy anything from the Epic Giveaway Shop, though. :p

Is there a chance alan wake 1 will come to sony? I have it on pc but would buy it again if there will be a remaster
If they are restarting this franchise (unless it's a total reboot, which I doubt), there is a big chance the first game will land on PlayStation. What's the point of releasing the second game in the series if people aren't familiar with the world/storyline/characters etc.

Seriously though, some of these Steam fanboys are worse than console fanboys. Thanks for sharing with us that you won't be using Epic Games Store... SMH.

Tag, you're it.
Epic = no buy.

Put it on GOG, MS Store or anything else and I'd buy it day one. Especially since Alan Wake is one of my favorite game.

Don't be stupid Remedy !

I love Remedy Games, hopefully it comes to the PS5

100% multiplatform nextgen only.
So PS5 version is a given.

errr GOG Galaxy natively supports EGS games?
Whats your beef?

With Epic funding the game I have no problem with it being exclusive to their store.

With Epic publishing it I expect it to have some bullshit PlayStation timed exclusivity or exclusive DLC however, and that I do not like.

Just what we need....another sequel. All announcements are either sequels, ports, reboots or remasters. It's getting old.
