Alan Wake 2 is surprisingly both great and awful.
I've been a fan of Remedy for a while, so when I heard that Alan Wake 2 was coming out I was really excited to play it. But when I finally got my hands on it, there were mixed reviews, and I found out why. There were complaints about the writing and the script, which is understandable.

Remedy has a unique style of writing that is sometimes cheesy and campy, but I think that's what makes it so enjoyable. It's hard to distinguish between intentional cheese and unintentional cheese, but I think that's part of the charm. There's no need for games to take themselves too seriously, and Alan Wake 2 is a perfect example of that.

The game has a very meta feel to it, which I think makes it easier to accept that Alan and Saga are blasting their way through a town full of innocent people. It's also quite funny in places, with the TV station scenes being a particular highlight.

I think what I like about Alan Wake 2, and what I like about Remedy in general, is that it has a distinctive feel to it. There's a certain tone to the dialogue, the action, and the overall feel of the game that isn't seen in many other games. Sure, it could be better, but it would also lose its charm and distinctiveness.

At the end of the day, I wouldn't have it any other way. Alan Wake 2 is obviously flawed, but it's also amazing in its own unique way.
