the game definitely starts slow, it took me an hour or so to get into to but after beating it its one of the most unique games ive ever played. its not necessary to play before this but youll for sure get more enjoyment out of resonant if you know the lore from AW2

Pretty sure they’ve always been called that. I think the part about some being optional is new info.

But I haven’t really been keeping up with previews like that

This is a tough one because the combat isnt visually hooking me like I dont know if I will love the melee combat. I respect they didnt go another shooting game. The level design itself looks very very creative but I dont know if the combat is what I personally want to play. I always fear hack and slash or melee combat will in some way get tedious. Guns I just get used to even if its tedious in some games ( I fell off control and need to beat alan wake )

I am beginning to see the vision on this game

Seems like the perfect mix of Control and AW2

Could easily be GOTY if they commit

I want to finish Alan Wake 2 before this drops . I love the weirdness of remedy

It’s worth it. Especially the dlc, Lake House connects pretty directly

The first hour is really just set up of the game man lol . I dont understand being bored by a game setting a scene and introducing characters. You could have a short attention span or want straight up action game though. Its not a game that tries to rush. Its not a combat super heavy focused game. Its some but its puzzles or figuring things out.

Lets go

that Alan Wake 2 intro with that song at the end

When I first started Alan Wake 2 I was trying to play on hard to see if I could master it or it would super immerse me. then that fan man was kicking my ass so I said yeah imma lower it

The bosses especially get ridiculous if you play on harder difficulty’s. The late game sewer boss took me 10+ tries on hard

I was running away reloading and every thing lol

I did the final Scratch fight on hard mode and ended up basically having to cheese it

There was a certain corner you could stand in where he couldn’t hit you. Stood there, got the damage I needed and beat the game on hard lol. I wasn’t dealing with that

Just realized I haven't played the dlc

Valid. I loved alan wake 1 and control so i was really disappointed when i couldnt grasp alan wake 2 but i do need to give it more time. Gonna try to push thru before this drops

i wish this released like right now

lol yeah you got to give it a lot more time and be patient just play a little a day. I havent beat it but I dont dislike what I am playing its just at times pacing

The one time I wanted to go physical, of course they delayed it digital it is I guess lmao

frees up late Sept to play a different title as I wait for the physical

That’s the move fr s***s packed

you going to just wait ? Then play this and Phantom blade the same month? thats fair I am playing on PC so will get this on epic game store or steam
