I honestly believe this game doesn’t receive all the attention it deserves. Probably, it’s because it was launched on GmaeCube and not on more popular PlayStation/Xbox. The game, however, is one of the best titles of its generation. The way the story is served is unique. I like how it embraces many epochs and shows how evil plans can be prepared over the centuries. The fighting mechanics are pretty funny at first. Chopping the enemies' heads and hands entertains you for a few first hours but then you either run towards the enemies to get to the interest point faster or smash them into heads like it’s Morrowind. Focusing on enemies is kinda of laggy imo, and it’s another reason to not partake in fights. Also, it destroys the shooting mechanics. Shooting is not so “juicy” in this game, so I prefer melee combat. The camera angles are pretty disturbing as well. There’s a semi-fixed camera in this game and sometimes you just can’t see your enemies. Wrapping up, I’d recommend this game to everybody interested in 2000’s videogames. It’s 4/5 from me.
I had this game when I was a child but it was on Japanese, so I had no idea about many aspects of it. Now, I can play it on emulator, and game is pretty awesome. There's a plot, and each level ends with a small cartoon. The jokes are childish but cute. The game is pretty easy, except for the last levels that are pretty challenging. It's 4/5 from me.
I really liked the first Alan Wake game and as far as I remember, everybody considered it a so-so game. All of a sudden, everybody likes the second part and claim it the 2023 game of the year. IMO it's pretty boring. As much as I liked the True Detective-ish first hours of the game, I don't like everything that comes after we play as Alan Wake. It was boring as hell. It's 3/5 from me.
