The game in this screenshot is Alan Wake
Please don’t take selfies with the depressed bear.
Looks more like he’s high to me
Reference too new, handshake rejected.
TBH This might be a good enough idea to merit a whole community of people just posting singular cool screenshots of games they are playing. Could be a cool low-effort visual way to document what folks are into at the moment. Kind of like a visual version of those ‘what are you playing’ weekly threads that used to be everywhere.
There is [email protected] but it’s dead.
E: Ok, it’s not dead. I must have confused it with a different community.
Not exactly what I was thinking of but still worth a sub!
It would be awesome to see what other people are playing through screenshots. I wouldn’t mind seeing more people share their screenshots, whether as their own post or piggy backing off of mine
Didn’t play Alan Wake 1 and 2 but I viewed the AW1 “let’s play” of @welonz and the AW2 “let’s play” of @coxclips. Just wanna share my thoughts re AW2. There are spoilers below.
So much reading. Yes, you can skip a lot of those. Yes, the title is Alan Wake 2 and Wake is a writer. But a gamer who very much dislikes reading may be turned off or think “I may be missing much by skipping most of the reading, so I’ll drop AW2.”
It seems Alice is alive. So she’s been living sans Alan for 13 years minimum. Extremely :(. I wanted a :) end for them. I can imagine an AW2 where the year is 2013 instead of 2023, and Alan was able to escape the “dark place” in 2013 and live with Alice happily. The writer (I dislike Sam Lake’s writing so I’m not saying Sam Lake) can figure out the plot gymnastics in between to make the game so interesting.
Scratch slew Jaakko Koskela so easyyy. So powerful. He could just slay Anderson, Casey, Cult of the tree and the Fbc at the start.
The Fbc’s light arrays placed far from each other outside the sheriff’s station were plot convenience.
Anderson aided Wake with writing the end despite Wake inserting Logan and David in the tale. 😑
Sarah and Barry were sidelined. :(
Sam Lake most likely disliked a fairy-tale :) end for AW2 but don’t say “In horror, the hero must pay a price to save his pals.” (or something like that) like it’s a rule.
It’s time.com’s best 2023 game but it’s 👎 for me.
