Is anyone else as excited for this as I am?! Not only is this game finally getting some more love and getting a remaster, but it's also finally making it's way to PlayStation (which seemed like it would NEVER happen)!
I've never owned an Xbox of any kind in any generation, and this was a rare exclusive I was jealous of. It screamed Stephen King, Twilight Zone, Twin Peaks, all things I adore.
I finally got my chance to play the game when it was released on Steam, but not without a few hiccups. I've always been a primarily console/handheld gamer, and my old junky laptop wasn't very great. Even at the lowest settings the game's framerate dropped too low to be playable. I had to download some software and do some research just so I could break into the game and make it look as crappy as I could, as well as playing in a not-very-ideal windowed mode just so it could perform well enough to play.
And you know what? I loved it.
I loved every waking minute of this game. The story was fantastic, the gameplay was thrilling and exhilarating, and I loved the characters and setting. This game was just one of a kind, and even when I played it at it's worst it felt like one of the best games.
Now not only do I finally get to play Alan Wake as intended, but remastered and on PS5, and I am just so freaking excited.
