I know there’s a post-hoc artistique justification where Alan is a hack writer and everything in the dark place is only as good as his imagination… but a poorly made game is still a poorly made game, and trying to shove half of a Max Payne action shooter into an Alan Wake game is just asking for disappointment (just ask Amnesia fans about pigs).
But they okayed Alan Wake’s American Nightmare.
True. Props for that, at least.
I didn’t mean that in a very positive way.

I’m still puzzled that they made their masterpiece in SOMA and then wasted years of their life on Amnesia sequels. At least ONTOS is on the horizon.
