yea...wasn't for me.

I think what hurt my impression of the story was that there were all of these weird, terrible, and interesting things going on, and Jessie(?) went through them mostly un-phased.

it would have been more interesting, IMO, if we had a more normal protagonist.

It was ok

Gameplay was pretty bad and Story was a mess but it was endearing. I beat the entire game so it did something right

On top of this the game does this weird things where it shows Jessie's thoughts before she reacted in dialogue.... Even though 9/10 times they are the same thing. So it just repeats itself for all her lines.

((I don't trust this person, but I guess I have no choice))
"Hmm, I guess I have no choice, but I don't trust you!"

It was like they were being paid by the word or something.

tbh, it's been a while since I've played, so I don't remember the details, just my overall impression of how I felt about Jessie.

I liked Max Payne 2 & Alan Wake, though, so I might give it another chance just to see if some of the Remedy charm might click for me.

I liked it. Got both expansions for it as well. Actually currently replaying Alan Wake because I got the remastered edition. Looking forward to Alan Wake 2.

A solid 8 out of 10.

My biggest complaint was the map and also the lag on a base PlayStation 4.

Didn't like the look of it, so I wasn't interested at first. This is one of a handful of games that have taught me not to make that assumption.

Tried it when the complete edition was on massive discount. The story is weird and disjointed and the gun combat felt off, but I was surprised by how much I got into the game.

The combat became a lot more fun once you unlock certain abilities.

I loved Alan Wake so I really wanted to like Control, but after a couple of hours it was still doing nothing for me so I stopped playing. Havent ever gone back to it.

Im hoping that doesnt ruin my potential enjoyment of Alan Wake 2.

While I do really like the game, I always felt something was a little off with it that I've only ever been able to describe as a kind of dryness. You might have put your finger right on the issue. Jesse - and to some extent, all the characters - are just very blase about the entire situation. Which does make sense, they're all employees in an organization devoted to this kind of shit, but still kind of takes you out of it.
