I wish more people realised this. Alan Wake 1 sold really poorly, but Sam Lake and Remedy had really really wanted to make a sequel forever and literally no other publisher would touch the franchise. They tried to talk Microsoft into it but got funding refused and had to make Quantum Break instead.
Epic was their only chance to get to do their passion project, it’s not like I can blame them.
This could be a rare day-1 buy for me, assuming they’re not doing the Epic exclusive bullshit.
Edit: The Steam page is already up, so that’s good.
To be fair to Remedy they only partnered with Epic to get them to fund AW2, it was either a GameStore exclusive or no game to release.
Glad to see this on steam though.

Same, as long as it’s not 70 eurodollars
