I'm so happy Alan has worked on his cardio!! He can sprint for more than 3 seconds now!

I also quite like how they've improved nearly all the other gameplay aspects as well

Oh boy, straight away did I notice the gameplay improvements! That was my biggest issue with the first game and this feels so much better

Time for some more Alan Wake-ing then. Never did play this one back in the day

There's a very good chance Earth Must Die will be a day 1 purchase. A point and click with a great cast (give me Matthew Holness in anything) and some excellent humour. The demo made me laugh a whole bunch #SteamNextFest

Nighthawks, a pretty lengthy and involved demo which is always nice. A blend of an RPG and visual novel, with vampires being all vampy.

Seems like it has potential to be good if the writing holds up. I'm really unsure about some of the musical choices but it has a decent atmosphere #SteamNextFest

Game 43 - Alan Wake Remastered. I hadn't played this since the Xbox 360 days and halfway through, I was worried the aged and janky controls were going to make me hate it.

Luckily, the weird and whacky world of Alan Wake carried me through. Not a masterpiece, it has flaws, but a good game ⭐⭐⭐⭐

We abandoned Returnal for the exact same reasons and we both dislike Squall too!

OK, I did enjoy the second DLC more in the end but I don't really see what they offered story wise? They feel very skippable

I love those games and I'm glad you're enjoying them too 🙂

October feels like a good time for all these Remedy games!

Chip but a ghost 👻 @ctthumbs.bsky.social · 2d

It's true!

Played the Final Sentence demo and holy shit, I've never been so stressed whilst typing!

Came 3rd, then 2nd in my first two games, then completely lost my nerve and sucked after. Good game! #SteamNextFest
