A Decent Thriller
I enjoyed my first time playing "Alan Wake." The visuals still look good, although the graphics are showing their age, particularly in the character models. Most of this game is set in the dark of night with a beautiful, haunting atmosphere, but I found all of the animations to be stiff and awkward. The gameplay consists primarily of shining a flashlight on otherworldly enemies so that they can be damaged by one of Alan's guns. It's a neat idea, but the game does very little with this concept. You'll have seen everything combat has to offer before you're halfway done. By the end of the game I was very bored of fighting all of the same enemies in exactly the same way. Also, this game can be frustrating. It's difficult, but it's difficult for all the wrong reasons. I thought the controls could have been more responsive, and there isn't a dedicated dodge button. Instead, you dodge by tapping the same button that you hold to sprint. And I was frequently hit by enemies I couldn't see. The game does nothing to alert you of attacks coming from offscreen, and it's often difficult to know how many enemies there even are. The story is interesting, and you won't know what's really happening until the end. "Alan Wake" takes a lot of inspiration from the works of Stephen King and David Lynch, with much of the inspiration coming from "Twin Peaks" specifically. The gameplay wasn't great, but I stuck it out the end for the story.
