Today’s game is Alan Wake. I got back to it and finished Episode 5. Tomorrow the power will be out and I’m hoping to clean through Episode 6 entirely and start the DLCs (possible thanks to my Steam Deck).

Episode 5 ramps up the difficulty a lot I feel like, but not to an unfair level. I think the only part I struggled with to an unfair degree was a jump while being chased by the tornado in the screenshot. The power plant is also really fun to play through because you can push enemies into powerlines to kill them.

I also found another red chair out of bounds in the start of Episode 6. The player could never see it in normal play through I think. I’m wondering if maybe it’s a twin peaks reference or a developer in joke.

I loved Alan Wake. I'm still waiting on my copy of Alan Wake 2 because I refuse to buy it from Epic.

You'll probably be waiting a very long time then considering the game was published and funded by epic games.

How's the sailing weather? As long as it isn't cloudy with a chance of Denuvo they should be fine

I actually bought the game because I really like what remedy does, other wise I've ignored epic completely. I dont blame anyone who pirates it, game was AWESOME and the more that play it the better.

Man I wish I had it on GoG or steam though.
