    Well deserved. I really hope Remedy thrives. I know they’ve barely been surviving for a while and I really do just want the best for them.

      Control is solidly in the 80s on metacritic. That’s not an instant classic or anything but decidedly not ”mixed reviews."

        In my opinion it’s unfortunately a very disappointing sequel, I played for some time and the writing is horrrible. I felt like this is a beautiful mysterious puzzle game (like the exceptional first game) but here the dialogues are so unbearably expositional it’s like the puzzle telling you how to solve itself. It took away all the pleasure for me :(

    I’m one of those! I’ve nearly 100% completion, and it’s been great.

    These games always add so much world building through notes and audio logs, I find myself seeking our every collectable I can find.

    Yeah, it’s a pretty good game. I’m somewhere in the middle of it. The first one leaned more into the SCP-lore and storytelling style, which I miss. Combat is fun this time around, even with the change in how it fundamentaslly works… but maybe a bit repetitive.
