Poll: A Year Later, What Do You Think Of Alan Wake 2 Overall?

Will be good to see opinion on this one.
I really enjoyed Alan Wake.
But I have not played number two yet.

Is there as much action in AW2 as in AW.
A good few reviews said there was a lot of investigating and less action than AW.

let’s see what gamers says.

@OldGamer999 There is still a good amount of action, it's well balanced with narrative segments. Overall the game oozes style in typical Remedy fashion. If you're a fan of their games in general then this is a must play. I also love the way they've incorporated and combined the lore between Control and AW. We need more developers like Remedy who make these brilliant interactive single player tales.

Without spoiling anything, AW2 has one of the most memorable video game chapters I've seen in 35 plus years of gaming. The DLC has been short but sweet too. Enjoy!

7/10 good. I enjoyed it but also really disliked things about it. Trekking back through areas, little variation and annoying enemies, and the combat to me is worse than the original. I wasn’t even sure that would be possible. Also Saga was bland and uninteresting to me, I don’t care or like her enough to be invested in.

Imo it’s far from the masterpiece reviewers and some people make it out to be. Good, not great by any means.

There needs to be a voting option for ‘Refused to buy at launch because of scummy decision to release only a digital version; excited to play soon when my physical disc version arrives.’

@Balaam_ Exactly. I'm looking forward to playing this, only a few days to go.

Amazing game absolutely loved it

I’m really peeved of that a game called Alan Wake 2, has you playing a someone else for nearly 50% of the game. It’s false advertising.
Clearly it’s forced DEI that demolishes the believable of a fictional world when modern politics is injected so transparently.
The series Already has Sarah Breaker as an existing character in the Alan Wake series which would’ve been much better consistency for the world of AW 2, but a brand-new character was forcefully injected.

I had been waiting on a physical edition but now I might wait them out for a complete physical edition. I'm not in a hurry to play this one.

I realise I’m in the minority, but it just isn’t for me. I tried out the 2 hour trial on PS+ extra, but I couldn’t get into it.

Played it on PS5 but whatever. This was my GOTY last year. Collected all trophies and currently doing an ng+ run. Really looking forward to Lake House next week. Fingers crossed they will add at least one gold trophy. And when that is my only "complaint" this game is a 10/10 in my book!
