      If gameplay is your concern then AW2 is miles ahead of the first game. It’s a very competent survival horror game in its own right, on top of all the Remedy stuff.

      If you didn’t like the story then, well I dunno. It’s not like it gets less convoluted.

      Alan Wake 2 has a DLC that ties in pretty heavily with Control, so you’ll definitely want to play that before the new game comes out.
