In the dimly lit studio, the air hummed with anticipation as Alan Wake stood backstage, the echo of electric guitars tuning in the background. He could feel the energy vibrating through the air, a tangible force that seemed to echo the pulse of his own heart. The stage lights flickered as the announcer's voice echoed through the cavernous space. "Ladies and gentlemen, prepare yourselves for a once-in-a-lifetime experience! Tonight, in this very studio, we have the legendary Old Gods of Asgard, joined by the brilliant Alan Wake, ready to take you on a journey through the realms of rock and imagination!" As the crowd erupted in cheers, Alan took a deep breath, his mind already weaving the narrative that would unfold in the next few moments. The stage curtains lifted, revealing a surreal set that seemed to blend the ethereal with the familiar. The Old Gods of Asgard, adorned in majestic, weathered attire, stood like ancient titans, their instruments gleaming with an otherworldly glow.

@porcupinester 6 месяцев назад

@@Wedge_The_Almighty Not OP, but I do creative writing as a hobby. Starting off writing fiction, I found the following three things most helpful. First, show don't tell unless you really need to tell something to the reader. (I.E., "Alan Wake widened his eyes when he saw Mr. Door" vs. "Alan Wake was surprised to see Mr. Door" -- widening his eyes shows the reader he's surprised, instead of telling him outright he's surprised.) Second, start writing flash fiction instead of longer pieces. Flash fictions cap out at 500 - 1.5K words and are great to start with writing if you're new to storytelling and editing. Last, give your story at least two drafts before you chuck it in the bin if you're unhappy. Some of mine take at least three - four rounds of editing before I really like them, and it's normal to not like your original manuscript when you first write it!

@Lazarultos 6 месяцев назад

Nah, the Dark Place is just an "empty" space. Waiting to be filled by the minds of whoever occupies it. It's just that right now the major occupants are Alan, The Dark Presence, and Mr. Door. And so this is the result. My theory is that it's only scary because Alan and the Dark Presence make it so. A different person/entity with different flaws and desires would make it a completely different place because the Dark Place brings out EVERY aspect of you and manifests it.

In a interview with Sam Lake on video game reviewer Skill Up's podcast Friends Per Second, Sam revealed that this was constantly at risk of being cut. He originally tried to get something like this in Control but wasn't able to get it done. The scope of this was tremendous and unseen in gaming production, Sam pushed back multiple times to keep it alive and I seriously can't believe how good it came out. This could've easily came off terribly but the team pushed so hard with passion and it comes out in the segment. Thank you Sam for not faltering in your creative endeavors, Thank you Remedy for constantly pushing the envelope, Thank you Poets of the Fall for constantly breaking boundaries and crafting amazing music.

@@niks660097the genre of game is survival horror. Limited resources (leading to avoidance of combat, like in an older RE title), safe rooms, squishy characters that can’t take too much damage, healing that is not instantaneous (common in the genre but not all of ‘em), infrequent checkpoints, limited inventory space (and a storage box) leading to a push & pull of deciding what to bring with you and what to leave behind… It’s actually closer to true survival horror than many recent entries, so I’m gonna have to disagree. It’d seem you are conflating the plot with the gameplay; Silent Hill is psychological in nature as well, yet still falls under the genre. Lots of them have that element in it, coincidentally. Or perhaps by design, as instilling tension in the gameplay echoes a psychological sort of story rather well! I hope I don’t come off as rude or “Acktshually”-like! I probably just wanted to gush about the game & actually take note of what survival horror mechanics it embodies. There’s a bit more than I’d realized at first, actually lol

Old Gods of Asgard is a band in the Remedyverse (Control, Alan Wake), however the actual music is from a band called Poets of the Fall, with the members of the Old Gods band being actual members of Poets of the Fall. The fact that Remedy also uses songs from Poets of the Fall as themselves alongside them as Old Gods of Asgard is funny, with the first Alan Wake even having a character point out how similar Poets and Old Gods sound.

I didn't think Control's Ashtray Maze could be topped but I do like a surprise. Playing through this sequence for the first time was such a thrill and the music always teleports me back to that feeling 🙌🏾
