Alan Wake II
The adventure in Alan Wake II returns to Bright Falls, where it all began, with a parallel world beneath the surface of Lake Cauldron that deserves to be considered one of the best story games this year.
And even though, the gameplay of Alan Wake II still has a few points that are not really perfect, but just thanks to every beat of the plot, the game still deserves an excellent name. The most important thing, compared to the first part released 13 years ago, Alan Wake II has been completely transformed, not just shining a flashlight and shooting a gun anymore.
This is most accurately described in how both characters in the game, FBI agent Saga Anderson and writer Alan Wake, have their own thinking space to connect everything together. For Saga, it is a room where she conducts investigations, gathers evidence, or even makes inferences based on the suspect’s psychology. As for Alan, imprisoned in the parallel world The Dark Place, he has a private room to “compose”, to write lines that help bring him back to reality.
