I’m really happy for them. They should buy the distribution rights to Alan Wake 2 from the human weeny Tim Sweeny so they can actually make money off that game too…
I missed the community name and initially thought this was about bmc remedy and was about to be appalled.
Good on Remedy though, the original control is one of the best games ive played in the last decade, it got me thinking how to use that storyline to make a ttrpg campaign
Control is one of my most favourite games of all time but just haven’t been able to muster up any interest in this one. I think it’s because they picked the weakest character of the entire game to be the new protagonist and that really killed my curiosity.
and also the fact it’s $80CAD. It can wait.
I felt similarly about the new main character, and the start of the game wasn’t great in that regard, but his arc gets better as the game progresses. By the end I really liked him as his own character and as a part of the larger narrative.
It’s currently 20% off on steam. My personal GOTY for sure.
I really liked the previous main character … so I wasn’t as excited with it, but the reviews have been stellar so I wanna pick it up. $80 CAD is what’s putting me off of it too…
Some of the best character arcs often require an especially pathetic/weak starting point.
Honestly, it’s as good as the original, trades some of the horror elements for cinematic fighter.
But the world is still weird, the patterning effect amazing, and story comes through.
I have yet to play Resonant, but Control was such a nice surprise. I went in knowing nothing and ended up loving it.
That was me, bought it to try out rat tracing, came out a huge fan of raybtracing AND control, and now Poets of the Fall/old gods of asguard is our favorite band
Did you get better at drawing rats?
