Today’s game is Control. I went Anchor hunting today and did that whole questline. I can’t believe i had never done it up until that point. I would have expected me to easily have a run in with that location considering how accessible it is.

Nonetheless, I escorted the guy out. Then went back, found out i needed the levitate ability, progressed the story far enough to get it, then went all the way back to get it.

With this playthrough i’m not rushing through as much either. As such i’ve found so many references to Alan Wake that i just missed on my first playthrough. Such as this page with a narration by the man himself. There’s also a Coffee Thermos and a few pages describing people going through events similar to Alan’s Dreams.

I also found out i can pick up the projectors. There’s nothing interesting about this, i just thought it was cool. I feel like a lot of games would just tie the projectors down rather than rendering a whole extra thing for rotating them and such. It was pretty cool.

I made my way through the whole Ordinary AWE site and i’m about to head over to the Research wing to mess with the projectors. This was about the point i remember last time getting too before the last “push” and finishing the main game. So i may very well finish it tomorrow and move back to the DLC.

    I think Remedy always manages to make their games just slightly too long to be completely enjoyable. It’s sill a great game, but the DLCs felt a bit dry to me.

      I’ve always found them to be a bit short, that might just be my attachment to the media though. I’ve maybe got 8 Hours in this playthrough and i’m near the end of control so I may be going through it at a way too fast pace
