Alan in the Dark

A narrative driven third person shooter that tells of the story of author Alan Wake's bizarre adventure in a cosy American town. The plot is interesting enough but the distinctive way the story is presented does a lot to enhance its intrigue. It also still looks pretty good for its age. The dark presence thing is a cool concept for a villain and means the game has plenty of reason to put its impressive visual theme of darkness contrasted by the light of Alan's flashlight on display. The combat involves using light sources to expose enemies that move in to attack you in close range and shooting them dead. Feels reminiscent of a zombie shooter like Dead Space or Resident Evil 4 even if not as refined as those (notably, enemies don't take more damage depending on where you shoot.) Enemies do show an impressive sense of self preservation (more variants would be nice though) and the shooting is satisfying, so combat is fun overall. Your arsenal isn't too flashy, you'll use Alan's trusty revolver the most, but it is a good weapon. Fun to watch and play, I strongly recommend it want a good story and action.

Great game, but could be better

Unlucky that Epic Games have to lock Remastered version on their launcher (and you need connection to play it too lol). Hopefully it will come to GOG after release of Alan Wake 2, overall game is good, but blurry, you have to workaround graphics setting through file manipulations (you don't have motion blur setting).

Very Intriguing, Very ambitious

What an interesting game! I really liked the story and presentation a lot. Visually it was great. It did, however, perplex me that a game featuring a main character so unsuited to combat was such a combat oriented game. Almost every sequence of this game is advanced through combat. And the combat mechanics really aren't very good. There is never enough ammo and the controls are pretty jerky. And the combat in a lot of ways doesn't really make sense either. It's just endless repetition of fighting the same villains over and over and over without any real reason to it. But, outside of that, the game is really interesting and compelling. I like how the story doesn't really resolve itself. It's well written and the voice acting is good and the atmosphere is excellent.

Love this game

Neraly everything about this game is awesome. The story is great, the gameplay is great, the characters are interesting, the horror is just about scary enough. When playing this game you feel like playing a movie, just without to many cutscenes. Looking for clue as you advance through the game is perhaps a pshycologic cliche, but nevertheless important as ever. It is important to know that this is not a scary game as Amnesia or Slender. And it's not a very good shooter game as anyother FPS. So imagine you have a bit of both. This is also not a game for people who dont like Sthephen Kings stories, like objects that comes to life. But if you can see through that minor problem, then it should be some well spent money and hours.

The best game I ever played.

The gameplay is a bit clunky, but fairly easy to get a sense of, once learnt, it comes naturally. Mainly though, it works for its purposes. Alan Wake, more than any games I've played since I was young and dumb and Halo 2 launched, just has that something which makes an experience memorable. The story is captivating, the characters enjoyable, but realistic, the art style is great and the music is unrivaled. The songs at the end of each chapter each fit in perfectly. The graphics, when turned up a bit aren't the newest around, but they won't be dated for a good while yet either. Bright Falls, the small american mountain town where most of the game takes place, seems as alive as most towns out in the real world, and a fair bit more than some. Twin Peaks instantly leaps to mind (the superb setting of series, not the abysmal quality of its writing), but Bright Falls definitely has character of its own as well. The picture of the sun setting over the small town is quite simply something that stays with you. The title of my review is slightly misleading. Alan Wake isn't just the best game I can remember playing, it's also the best story, in any medium, I've experienced in at least a year. Probably more. If you can, try it out, but beware, it's hard not to talk to your friends about this game, and you'll probably come off as a massive geek to your social circles while you play through this treasure. It's worth it though, a true example of how games can be great works of art.
