Launching it as an Epic Exclusive on PC sure didn’t help.
Almost didn’t buy it due this, but ended up getting it on PS5. Refuse to use epic even for their free games.
I pirated it because Epic Games. What an absolute banger of a horror game. Legit in my top 3 favorite games of all time. They’ll get my $ when they come to steam, if they do.
Now watch 505 launch Control 2 on steam and just roll in money.
Epic is literally taking a shotgun to their own leg.
Can they release it on steam? Unfortunately this might be where epic sticks to its guns and won’t release it on steam, since if they did why would I ever get it on epic, I will just wait a few years. One way they could have gone is have it maybe at twice the price than what it will be on Epic. But this is like the streaming wars, first Netflix gave us what we wanted, everything in one place, and now that has led to a lot of great shows and movies being unknown due to the fragmentation of the platforms. Steam was ahead of its time, has a massive following and if it doesn’t get greedy will hopefully stay the place most relevant PC gaming platform
That’s a shame bcz this game was absolutely amazing. I played it on ps5, and I was floored by how good it was.
Epic lol
I bought this game on EPIC games because I wanted to play it. I bent over backwards to get this thing to run well because I wanted the full experience. I built a windows PC just for it.
It’s a pain playing it on Linux I’m basically forced to run a modified pirated version of a game I paid for to get a consistent experience.
I hope that maybe they will release a complete edition of Alan Wake 2 on steam when Control 2 finally hits because this is the kind of game that people want access to the back catalogue to theorize about.
I played on PS5. It was an amazing game. I hope they continue and don’t get discouraged by the fact that Epic games sucks ass
They didn’t release a physical version for ps5 so i didn’t buy it. I’m guessing I’m not the only one who ended up disenchanted with this game’s distribution.
