At first glance, some of the gameplay didn't pique my interest, but holy sh*t, I wasn't expecting to enjoy the entire game.
The gameplay mechanic of having your lightness as your companion throughout the story is such a unique take on video games today. To be honest, some parts of the story continue to confuse me, but it is still a fantastic one. And the idea of making each chapter into a TV show episode is brilliant. I was always interested about the music that would be used at the end of each episode.
Also, I didn't like Alan Wake's voice; there's something about it that makes him sound bored, if not monotone. The rest of the characters, however, have better voice acting.
Throughout the game, I noticed that the majority of the locations to play are 80% forest maps, which becomes tedious after a while. But I'm glad they gave us breaks for it. And some of the enemies are a pain to deal with. They would sometimes just stun-lock me in a corner until I died.
Overall, despite being a 13-year-old game, I still enjoy the story, characters, and atmosphere. Cynthia is such a queen for having to build a bunker for herself; we love that.
