Это писец... Это похоже на угемороеный вариант вступления в Оками до релиза HD издания. Если вы понимаете о чем я.

Я бы сравнил этот отрезок с запущенной недавно ради интереса (и карточек) китайской недоРПГ GuJian 2, где в начале игры полчаса диалогов и их нельзя ни пропустить, ни перемотать

Для Alan Wake 2 вышел апдейт с режимом «Новая игра+», ещё одной концовкой и другим контентом

В Remedy отметили, что повторное прохождение хоррора связано с его нарративом.

Большой патч, который добавил в Alan Wake 2 режим «Новая игра+», вышел 11 декабря — спустя полтора месяца с релиза тайтла.

Разработчики сообщили, что всегда планировали сделать повторное прохождение хоррора его «неотъемлемой частью», так как оно напрямую связано с нарративом. Сотрудники Remedy отметили, что изменения в сюжете будут заметны уже в самом начале кампании писателя.

NG+ также привнёс в Alan Wake 2 ещё один уровень сложности, дополнительные видеоматериалы, страницы рукописи, и, судя по всему, контент, связанный с доктором Каспером Дарлингом из Control. В студии также рассказали, что главные герои сохранят всё полученное ранее снаряжение, апгрейды и коллекционные предметы.

Помимо прочего, апдейт исправил множество багов и внёс в игру различные улучшения.

Следующий патч для хоррора выйдет в 2024 году. А позже тайтл получит два платных DLC: «Ночные ключи» и «Дом у озера».

Alan Wake 2 удостоилась трёх наград на The Game Awards 2023: за лучшее повествование, арт-дизайн и работу геймдиректора.

Интересно, ГеймсВойс предполагали такой поворот при рассвете объектов работ по озвучке игры? Там, как понимаю, могут и новые реплики или диалоги появиться...

Это ни разу не повод сразу перепроходить эту сверхдухоту. Интересно, лет через 5-10 мое мнение изменится в лучшую сторону?

Я просто не понимаю, как людям может это нравится с геймплейной точки зрения. Я не очень люблю Горизонт, Биошок, Масс Эффект, но я осознаю что в них хорошего. А вот в Алан Вейк 2 прям очень мало хорошего.

Недавно с женой прошли Алан Вейк 1, и ей прям сильно больше понравилось. Она тупо грамотнее. Записки не носят ощущения долбанутой графомании. Нет в этих записках декалитров воды и словоблудия, все очень четко, лаконично, по делу. Перебор с перестрелками, но они вообще не затянуты. За то время за которое я зачищу толпу в первой части, во второй повезет если хотя бы одного завалю, а их порой тоже толпами нападают.

New Feature: Chapter Select

You can now choose to play any mission in the game that you have previously unlocked.
Using this feature loads a pre-made save game regardless of your own progression.
This means that item progression and inventory will be pre-determined depending on the mission.
You will keep your previous manual saves.

NOTE: Remember to keep at least one manual save with your previous progression if you wish to retain it.

Chapter Select menu in Alan Wake 2

New features

Added Chapter Select menu.
Added option to choose between Low and Normal horror flash visual and audio intensity.

Gameplay and missions

Fixed an issue in The Final Chapter (New Game Plus) where if the player already had Saga’s crossbow in their inventory, they could not complete/open all required Cult Stashes and thus couldn’t get the Lighthouse Key from the final Cult Stash.
Fixed an issue where the player could get stuck if they opened the notification about having finished watching the final Koskela brothers’ advert:
- During RE09 Deerfest when you go to the Oh Deer Diner, the last Koskela commercial is shown and you are given a prompt that you can see it in the Mind Place, but if you press the touchpad as instructed to view it in the Mind Place, nothing happens, and your controls are frozen. The issue remains until you reload the last save.
Fixed an issue where the player was not able to collect all the clues around Nightingale’s body.
The objects required for the Overlap ritual in RE03 Local Girl can now only be picked up after the player finds their respective clues.
The 10th Echo Scene after meeting Casey in the alley now unlocks properly.
Players now receive the Coffee World Mug Charm in the The Final Chapter (New Game+) instead of a duplicate Hammer Charm.
Fixed the camera perspective on opened Cult stashes, so the note on the lid is now legible.
Additional fix for the Cynthia profiling not being available if the player exits the diorama too quickly in the Nursing Home.
Resolved an issue in RE05 Old Gods where players could pick up the fuse in the basement from a locked container without solving the attached combination lock puzzle.
Propane tanks will no longer reappear after reloading the game in Watery. Less explosions, less fun, but a smoother game.
Gave Saga a chance to gain more resources in the RE10 Come Home mission in the subway station.
Added missing descriptions for some case files in the Case Cabinet in Saga’s Mind Place.
Fixed a multitude of issues with Meta Case clues.
Added descriptions for cases that are in progress to the Case Cabinet files.
Igniting a flare while hiding in Safe Haven will now be seen as a hostile player action and collapse the Safe Haven if enemies are nearby.
Fixed an issue with the player camera occasionally “micro jittering” when rotating the camera in Prologue.
Removing the fun. It’s the beginning of the year. Explosions will no longer deal damage through doors.
Prevent players from accidentally boosting the flashlight and wasting batteries when picking it up.
FBI Service pistol and Revolver now deal enough damage to make cultists’ masks fly off with one, carefully aimed shot. F*ck yeah!
Curtain Call. Not the best album. Fixed curtains being incorrectly closed in the Theater Hall in some instances.
Fixed an issue where the crossbow with double-barrel upgrade was not being holstered properly.
Saga’s phone conversations can’t be interrupted by switching the Flashlight on and off anymore.
The item pickup indicator has been re-tuned, so the indicator should be more easily visible now.
The player can no longer run off the ledge behind the Monitoring Station in Cauldron Lake.
Fixed an issue where Fadeouts in the Poet’s Cinema Theater would sit in the air or inside of the theater seats. That was too spooky.
Fixed a, well, uh, issue with a rogue boot moving along the Cynthia boss fight arena.
Fixed an issue in IN05 Room 665 where items from a Tim Breaker’s stash could be picked up through the wall in Room 101.
Fixed an issue where the wolves would get killed instantly by approaching the cliff at the Radio Tower in Watery.
Fixed an issue where the player could get stuck in Norman’s room in the Bright Falls Nursing Home.

Re-tuned haptics on the “key events” such as weapon firing and reloading, using the Light Shift mechanic, burning off Source Points and using the flashlight.
Added audio to the ancient computers in the Bright Falls Sheriff Station.
Added audio for impacts when the Espresso Express hits the player. Don’t try it please. Coffee World is in enough trouble as it is.
Cassette eject sound added to Mr. Drippy.
