    Cant even play games on 60 fps 1080p low settings with previous gen hardware nowadays. Optimizing games? nahhhhh lets just use a upscaler instead and still wont even get 60.

            50 minutes is far from enough to write a piece like that off as “mediocre”, my online friend. By 2014 standards it was technically impressive, the gameplay loop is fairly tight, and the game delivered a genuinely compelling story, twisting and changing the beloved “twin peaks” formula in a way, that is easily recognizable as a distinct “Remedy-way”. As I was playing, figuring out themes, ideas and authorial intent was always clear and engaging. Maybe you just didn’t like it - totally fine. You certainly do have a taste, I reckon, so some things are bound to fall out

    Lol it’s Alan Fucking Wake. You walk around a dark neighborhood with a flashlight while shadows chase you. Chill the fuck out, devs.

    And they released it without a physical version for consoles and stated that’s because it helps them to keep the price higher. Big yikes.

    Jesus christ that’s an easy skip for me, not gonna buy a game where I can’t run 1440p 144fps on a computer I built in like March.
