The Signal… Yeah this wasn't very good. Seeing how Alan fared during his time in the Dark Place is really all I can give this episode. Other than that, it's more of the same from the base game, with somehow even worse gameplay and a less gripping progression. It was ok, but somewhat unnecessary, ultimately leading to more frustration than exposition.
This was a fine but mostly pointless feeling DLC, very 2010 vibes.
I don’t hate the combat of Alan Wake like a lot of people seem to beyond thinking that it gets kind of boring, so didn’t mind the fact that this was a bit more challenging than the main game at least. Exploding words mechanic is kinda neat
The Signal only being around an hour and a half long and about an hour and a half of that being recycled areas and assets, and the story only ever progressing in the opening minutes and at the very end is pretty bleh
Didn’t have a bad time with this but not something anyone needs to go out of their way for
