The Full Story of Alan Wake - Everything You Need To Know Before You Play Alan Wake 2 

They didn’t mention the Alan - Zane clicker paradox like Gamespot did though, but yeah I too watched both and it was worth it

as a non-native english speaker, i must emphasize, that this recap is clear to me, while the gamespot's recap is a one long sentence.

I agree with you a 100%

No no. You mean the way control ties into THIS! Lol

Omg, I've never made the Baba Yaga connection, that makes a lot of sense considering the name resemblance. I believe Baba Yaga is not a part of the Norse mythology, it's from Slavic folklore, but still.

When the entire studio is Finnish... 😂

Alan wake 1 was a very good A to Z story and game but red dead 2 holds that spot in my head. But i did love AW1 and was eager for 2. Made it to chapter 3 tonight. Way scarier than part 1

​@wvguy7238 Nonsense...the Metal Gear Solid series is the definitively best video game franchise story ever

​@@pre3stonlmao nah

@@pre3stonyeah gotta agree with the other guy who replied to your post. Metal gear solid is definitely not the best. Still good tho.

Idk the god of war franchise might be the goat , max Payne, dmc 3

The first one is still a great game, especially storywise. The action is a bit repetitive at times and there's a certain junkiness in some parts. But still worth playing if you like that type of narrative action thriller games.

Same! I always thought it looked lame

Well done magicman, well done magicman

Exactly 💯

This is exactly how I felt. Downloaded the remaster on PS+ was stuck on chapter 2 after being attacked by 5 enemies of which I didn’t have anywhere to run, can’t block, can’t out run, running out of battery and ammo at same time, try to reload one of them I get attacked the reload is cancelled and I try to reload again I get rushed again, it’s just a vicious cycle. Love the narrative but was utterly frustrated with the piss poor combat.

Any update in ur opinion? I went str8 into AW2 after watchin this vid.. and IT WAS.. AWE-SOME!!! 😅🤟🏻

Welllll. Good news

What's an "othe recap"?

control is very good, definitely should give it a play, but the alan wake connections don’t come until later in the game, mostly in the 2nd DLC

Control is insanely good. If you've ever heard about the SCP Foundation and enjoy some of the lore, this is basically that put into an action game, it's so much fun. Although to truly appreciate Control you'll have to read a lot, like a lot a lot, probably most I've ever head to read in a single game, but it's so engaging that it doesn't really matter. And weirdly enough doesn't break the flow of the action at all. So, yeah, definitely worth playing, combat also gets insanely fun after you get some initial abilities.

It's just too much information at once 😂

Wait it's 10 bux?

​@dairyontedecoteau673 yup! The remastered version on Epic game store and PSN

I dont have the hours to play it

Nope, crappy gameplay!! But I'm a newbie so..😅

It's very out of date. I couldn't play it

Dyslexic comment ever!!! I have completed the game just now and it's good game

The game is fucking unplayable by today's standards.

This video is enought tbh. Control is a lot more important IMO.

Yeah it is goingto be on eof BIGFEST games on Remedy's history! 🇫🇮

So the best narrative, agreed. Not that great of a game though. Part 2 is looking much better.

I thought that at first too until I realized you should play it like a movie. Those cinematic-shots are actually teaching you how to play, if you tune your playstyle to get as many of those cinematic shots as possible it ends up being way easier and way more fun. Not sure why exactly, but for some reason trying to play tactically just doesn't work as well, you need to let yourself get in bad situations, then pull yourself out of them. The flare was the thing which made me realize this at first, because I noticed whenever I got a cinematic shot with the flare I'd typically do really well in the following few seconds because nearly all of the enemies were stunned and weakened. To stretch the author angle, you *_need_* second-act lows for third-act victories. If you try to stay on-top all of the time you inevitably burn resources and fail. (well, it's probably not quite as intense for most people's playthroughs, it's probably just a lot less fun if you don't farm cinematics, but I played through it on the hardest difficulty on my first playthrough so *_not_* doing this was really kicking my teeth in, but after I learned to farm those cinematic shots it instantly got way more fun and I was able to way more easily beat hardpoints) By the end of the game after I had learned how to play I ended up drowning in ammo/resources at points just because I was able to make the revolver alone do serious work.

Are you for real? The game is called Alan Wake. As is said like 50,000 times in this video. And the TITLE of this video is basically “the story of Alan Wake….before you play Alan Wake 2” Please let this be a bot I stg

@@andrewericdavison Thank you.

It’s called TES Morrowwind

I looked up a ps4 version and it’s called Alan Wake remastered the game has all the DLC to. I’m thinking of getting it.

@YouMadBruh420 Thanks for the info man! Will it backward compatible with my PS5? I have sold the PS4. I have PS5 Disc version. Prefer PS discs.

Would love to see you play any game not made after 2015 lol

WAAGH

Braindead take

Maybe play on an actual console like games were meant to :)
