I platinumed it. But the repetition really hit me hard when I tried to go through Miles Morales.

Yeah, those repeated crimes and side quests are really rough after the 20th time. I hope they improve on those in the sequel.

 

[CatLady]

The word “exclusive” bothers Microsoft fanboys.

Not really, doesn't that mean it's day 1 on Game Pass?

 

[SLB1904]

"Rumors"

 

[Captain Toad]

Alan Wake 3!

If any developer enjoys being weird for the sake of being weird enough to do that, it's Remedy.

Bothered you enough to reply.
Port begging commence, deep desire to play quality PlayStation games lives in every Xbox fan!

Oh relax, it was a joke. I don't even like Sony games except HZD.

Oh come on, you already let it slip...
We have GOTYs plenty, but there is some average games too for that familiar feel so the crossover can be smooth for you.

This. So much.
So dull. Got the plat, but doing sidequest crimes for hours...sheesh...

 

[Gameplay Gods Bless]

There a rumor that Doctor Strange will appear in Spiderman 2 in a side quest/easter or something, imagine if Sony is funding a Doctor Strange game with Remedy

That could be super cool!

 

[mortal]

I love the Max Payne games, but no more Max Payne please. Some of you guys need to learn to move on, Remedy certainly did haha.

 

[VeganElduderino]

Max payne reboot

 

[lefty1117]

looking forward to the gamepass release

 

[SafeOrAlone]

I really dig Control. Especially for their use of music - including vocals - during gameplay. Something about that always pleases me. I also loved the use of music in Max Payne 3, Metal Gear Solid 3, Death Stranding, and RDR.

As for exclusivity, don't have a PS5 yet, but I will, so this is good news to me.
I'm stoked for the future day, in which I pick up PS5, with a large handful of exclusives I've looked forward to, and just diving in all weekend, non-stop. I got used to always playing the PS3 & 4 exclusives day one, so after a drought, well..it's going to be awesome.

In the meantime, GamePass with my friend is a blast. We are playing so much more than we would be otherwise, just hopping in & out of games we'd never heard of.

 

[Hobbygaming]

I loved Quantum Break, Alan Wake and Control I'd love sequels to any of these

 

[Cyber_hunter026]

this news isn't really surprising. shuei Yoshida visited remedy a while ago so it's not difficult to imagine a deal might of been struck then and there. keep in mind he was also there visiting Housemarque games as well.

 

[VulcanRaven]

I'm still sad that Alan Wake wasn't open-world game like it was originally supposed to be.

 

[Team Andromeda]

Can't wait for whatever game it is. Remedy is just an awesome developer

 

[Withnail]

So now is a good thing to moneyhat third parties exclusives, thats how it works rights? it dependes of the company that is paying to decide if it is a good or bad practice, correct?

A publisher working with a developer is not a third party exclusive ffs. How did the gaming community come to such ignorance where everything is just warz?

 

[ZywyPL]

I have a hard time believing this seeing how well financially Control did, solely because of being available on multiple platforms. I don't think Remedy will want to make an exclusive game ever again, unless they'll get a really huge stack of cash for doing so.

If it's true, Sony is likely fulling funding the game. Probably also paid them a profit in advance with performance bonuses. Plenty of examples of studios who made successful multi-platform titles but still developed an exclusive for a platform holder.

 

[demigod]

I'm going with Alan Wake 2.

Yeah, if true then that's probably how it went. That would go in line with the rumor/info that Sony reached pretty much all major 3rd party developers with some serious offers for exclusivity deals from not so long ago.

 

[Badlucktroll]

Could it really be Silent Hill? https://www.pcgamer.com/how-do-you-make-silent-hill-good-again-give-it-to-remedy/

 

[reksveks]

I think if true, it's probably going to be a new IP. Think sequels of the existing IP are likely to come out from their deal with Epic, get to release on PC and both consoles that way.

 

[Flutta]

Control was dope, cant wait for their next game.

 

[martino]

until content displease me I will take anything remedy produce whatever the platform so i'm ready

 

[pasterpl]

So we will see gci trailer in 3 years and game will probably release in 5....hype /s

 

[saintjules]

You mean the one that comes out of your butt after you eat it?

 

[GuinGuin]

Control was terrific and I think their focus on an adult narrative told in a unique and intriguing way fits in with how Sony has been elevating the medium in recent years.

 

[CitizenZ]

Working on "Sony and Epic store exclusive" fixed it for ya

 

[BennyBlanco]

Remedy Entertainment signs with Epic Games to publish two new multi-platform games - Remedy

To give you a bit of context, back in 2016 Remedy set on our current path of becoming a studio making multiple games and have more, uh, control over our destiny. We want to be in a position where we can create our own games and IPs (and hold onto them) like we are on […]

How big is Remedy? Sounds like more resetera fanfic just like silent hill

 

[eyesabitdull]

Cool for them, but after playing Control I cannot say that I'm on board until they prove me wrong. Remedy's latest title had serious issues imo.

Nothing killed my desire to play the game than the stupid wannabe souls-like gameplay loop.

Immediately refunded.

So I'm in agreement with you, but probably for differing reasons.

It's not a souls like in any way shape or form. There are save points and you lose a small amount of xp at death. An almost inconsequential amount.

A Souls comparison

Fuck outta here

 

[onnextflix5]

Control 2 with bigger budget, new writer plz.
