In the dimly lit studio, the air hummed with anticipation as Alan Wake stood backstage, the echo of electric guitars tuning in the background. He could feel the energy vibrating through the air, a tangible force that seemed to echo the pulse of his own heart. The stage lights flickered as the announcer's voice echoed through the cavernous space. "Ladies and gentlemen, prepare yourselves for a once-in-a-lifetime experience! Tonight, in this very studio, we have the legendary Old Gods of Asgard, joined by the brilliant Alan Wake, ready to take you on a journey through the realms of rock and imagination!" As the crowd erupted in cheers, Alan took a deep breath, his mind already weaving the narrative that would unfold in the next few moments. The stage curtains lifted, revealing a surreal set that seemed to blend the ethereal with the familiar. The Old Gods of Asgard, adorned in majestic, weathered attire, stood like ancient titans, their instruments gleaming with an otherworldly glow.

@@Wedge_The_Almighty Not OP, but I do creative writing as a hobby. Starting off writing fiction, I found the following three things most helpful. First, show don't tell unless you really need to tell something to the reader. (I.E., "Alan Wake widened his eyes when he saw Mr. Door" vs. "Alan Wake was surprised to see Mr. Door" -- widening his eyes shows the reader he's surprised, instead of telling him outright he's surprised.) Second, start writing flash fiction instead of longer pieces. Flash fictions cap out at 500 - 1.5K words and are great to start with writing if you're new to storytelling and editing. Last, give your story at least two drafts before you chuck it in the bin if you're unhappy. Some of mine take at least three - four rounds of editing before I really like them, and it's normal to not like your original manuscript when you first write it!

Nah, the Dark Place is just an "empty" space. Waiting to be filled by the minds of whoever occupies it. It's just that right now the major occupants are Alan, The Dark Presence, and Mr. Door. And so this is the result. My theory is that it's only scary because Alan and the Dark Presence make it so. A different person/entity with different flaws and desires would make it a completely different place because the Dark Place brings out EVERY aspect of you and manifests it.

One of my favorite things about Control and Alan Wake 2 is how the protagonists will have legitimate reactions to the bizarre and sometimes cool stuff around them. Jesse saying “That was awesome” after The Maze, Alan’s little smile at the end of the song (and “It’s catchy, right?” in game)… makes our heroes more human in an increasingly otherworldly setting!

The problem is that while they have reaction to the quirky things, they have none for the horrific, Like Saga about the heartless corpse rising, killing and teleporting.

In a interview with Sam Lake on video game reviewer Skill Up's podcast Friends Per Second, Sam revealed that this was constantly at risk of being cut. He originally tried to get something like this in Control but wasn't able to get it done. The scope of this was tremendous and unseen in gaming production, Sam pushed back multiple times to keep it alive and I seriously can't believe how good it came out. This could've easily came off terribly but the team pushed so hard with passion and it comes out in the segment. Thank you Sam for not faltering in your creative endeavors, Thank you Remedy for constantly pushing the envelope, Thank you Poets of the Fall for constantly breaking boundaries and crafting amazing music.

I think the first Alan Wake would make a better TV show. I think the first Alan Wake was more of a horror game than this one. This one was more of a mind screw job than being dark. But I definitely loved them both, but as far as the story itself goes, i thought the first Alan Wake had a better story.

I see this as Door and The Gods' effort to put Alan back on track, after he snaps after so many years in The Dark Place, it tackles all his insecurities and remedies them. -The Clicker isn't a mysterious object of power, it's a gift from your mother -You've always been a writer, since the day you were born -You're not evil, you're a man with vices and it's a tragedy that you gave into them -You came to Bright Falls for her, and she came with you -When you were thrown into Departure, a world of monsters and nightmares, did you run? No. You fought to save your wife, Bright Falls and everybody there. You're the Torchbearer -You have to go deeper to surface, keep going even though it feels helpless -You're the Champion Of Light and The Herald Of Darkness. You can make this place yours

@@niks660097the genre of game is survival horror. Limited resources (leading to avoidance of combat, like in an older RE title), safe rooms, squishy characters that can’t take too much damage, healing that is not instantaneous (common in the genre but not all of ‘em), infrequent checkpoints, limited inventory space (and a storage box) leading to a push & pull of deciding what to bring with you and what to leave behind… It’s actually closer to true survival horror than many recent entries, so I’m gonna have to disagree. It’d seem you are conflating the plot with the gameplay; Silent Hill is psychological in nature as well, yet still falls under the genre. Lots of them have that element in it, coincidentally. Or perhaps by design, as instilling tension in the gameplay echoes a psychological sort of story rather well! I hope I don’t come off as rude or “Acktshually”-like! I probably just wanted to gush about the game & actually take note of what survival horror mechanics it embodies. There’s a bit more than I’d realized at first, actually lol

He's there ironing out the little details and part of the creative process for all songs of course. The only lyrics Sam has written completely himself are for the songs Ahti sings. Sankarin Tango in Control and Yötön yö in AW2.

He didn't say it was a "production nightmare," just that when he pitched the idea of this sequence there was a lot of pushback from the team and Sam stuck to his guns and made sure it got in. The team just thought it was out of place at first, but Sam convinced them it was worth keeping.

I don't know how anyone is beating this game in 15-20 hours. Granted, I'm playing on Hard difficulty (its actually extremely well balanced and rarely becomes anything other than challenging in the kind of way I find survival horror should be) but I'm 32 hours in with at least 5 chapters left to go and a bunch of side content to tackle still. Between all the richly written documents, letters, notes, etc as well as the amazing short films, radio shows, treasure hunts, brain bending codes to crack, and rich, rewarding exploration...It refuses to stop making me love it more and more. Rarely have I felt like a game so completely aligns with my tastes in this way. My few complaints are so inconsequential given what the game chooses to prioritize. The saddest thing is knowing there is an ending. I say all of this yet deep down I still haven't rewired my brain to exist in a world where Alan Wake 2 is real. I still cannot fathom it. It makes me so indescribably happy.

Old Gods of Asgard is a band in the Remedyverse (Control, Alan Wake), however the actual music is from a band called Poets of the Fall, with the members of the Old Gods band being actual members of Poets of the Fall. The fact that Remedy also uses songs from Poets of the Fall as themselves alongside them as Old Gods of Asgard is funny, with the first Alan Wake even having a character point out how similar Poets and Old Gods sound.
