The characters are thinly sketched cliches that you never care about and at times the dialogue is awful, especially one cringe-inducing scene where Remedy use a secondary character to start name-checking their favourite authors in the most inorganic way imaginable. This item: Alan Wake Remastered - PlayStation 4 by Epic Games Publishing 27.96 Far Cry 6 PlayStation 4 Standard Edition with Free Upgrade to the Digital PS5 Version by Ubisoft 14.99 Control Ultimate Edition - PlayStation 4 by 505 Games 24. For a game based on a novelist the writing is worryingly hackneyed and made to seem even more so by an ever present narrator. Characters still have a touch of last-gen jank to their facial models and animations, but do look significantly more detailed overall, and the atrocious lip syncing of the original’s cutscenes is largely fixed. This is not the developer's first use of Adaptive Triggers and. While Alan Wake Remastered is built upon the original game’s engine, it features a complete redo of textures and models. The story is clearly meant to compensate for the repetitive gameplay but all it comes down to is a simple tale of yet another incompetent ancient evil. Alan Wake Remastered takes advantage of the DualSense's haptic feedback and adaptive triggers. That doesn’t change the combat in any way though, and you’re still in the middle of a forest, so all the cinematic (or rather televisual) presentation – including chapter endings accompanied by some excellently chosen licensed music – is wasted on a game that constantly seems to be treading water. This is not to suggest the game is poorly made or that Remedy is being lazy, as there are still some memorable set pieces, such as where Alan and a friend use the pyrotechnics from a stage show to fight off a huge wave of enemies. The combat is perfectly entertaining but the complete lack of any sort of variety is perverse. To make matters worse, the setting is almost exclusively dark woodland. You can use flares and flashbangs to take out whole groups, and shotguns and a limited use flare gun are introduced later, but essentially your abilities are frozen in stone from the start.

The only enemies that aren’t possessed townsfolk are the odd flock of birds and a small line in demonically possessed furniture and vehicles.
