Streaming and uploading both, though I won't be able to play on full settings as my computer's getting a bit older, but very excited to play. Since several people have asked me that I'll plug it in here once before it starts, but yai.
Will there be any early Steam unlocks?
Thanks for posting, was hoping someone would stream past chapter 6.
Edit: Where the stream is at right now looks a LOT more like the first game than what we've seen so far. He is currently on Chapter 14.
There was a thread here the other day with a full list.
This reminds me when Gaffers started saying RE Revelations 2 was inspired by Last of Us because of Natalia and Barry
Becauseit is the first game, it's a boss rush of old bosses
I missed that thread so I ask it here:
is there a trophy for akumu mode, with all its bullshit implications?
No actually but thats funny ;^) imagine all the games inspired by TLoUS that we don't know about 🤔Did you not remember the famous line, "You know Nattie, you really are the sandwich of us."
I wonder if 'Classoc Mode' includes the letterboxing format.

Maybe it just change the gameplay into RE4 gameplay.
Speaking of -
Can anyone who's finished the game say what Classic Mode actually is? Specifically, is it like Akumu with all one-hit kills, or something comparable to Madhouse/Pro difficulty in the RE games? Non-spoilery version.
Also, how is Nightmare compared to the original's version? I know Bethesda said it was one-notch easier, but...
As far as I know only three series have this style of TPS action-horror: RE, Dead Space, and Evil Within. Two of them were started by the same guy!
Like, nobody else has ever thought of doing it?
Do we have any information on performance?
There's something about the structure of Alan Wake that keeps it distinct from the others mentioned, in my mind.RIP Alan Wake. Nobody remembers you
I'm on PC and it's running a lot better than the first. Some stutters, tho.

TEW, Dead Space, and Resident Evil all feel much more similar to me than Alan Wake feels to any of them. Everyone has their own definition of what "Survival Horror" means, but Alan Wake seems the most difficult to fit into that genre out of them, for me.

At a glance, do you notice any framepacing/frametime issues at 60fps?
I am waiting for used copies, everything about this game seems like a disappointment compare to the first game.
The first Evil Within is flawed, but at least it is a dark, intense and atmospheric experience, intriguing and creative in pretty much every aspect. The combat is well thought out too, there are many ways to deal with monsters than just shoot or stealth, you are often rewarded for being smart and creative.
Find a bottle, throw it at someone's face, crouch immediately and then press the button once the stealth kill icon shows up. The game told you nothing about this, but it is a very common tactic among TEW players.
The Evil Within 2 on the other hand just seems like a open world The Last of Us clone with shallow combat system, they even removed the matches. Now it's all just pew pew pew and crafting.
Another thing, the first TEW is a very challenging game with very little ammo and resources, which makes pretty much every enemy scary. From what I have seen in TEW2 (watched more than 5 livestreams from Chapter 1 to 6 so far), the game generally seems forgiving and casual, facing an enemy no longer feels intense and scary.
Australia or Asian countries.

I'm still somewhat salty at the amount of resources I managed to save in the first game, even when the game kept throwing waves upon waves of enemies at me, just so I could have as much as I could for the last boss.
And then it's a fucking QTE, or something.
Man, fuck that boss.
Oh boy, a friend beat the game (got it a few days ago). I told him to tell me NOTHING, except one thing.
For those curious, The Evil Within 2 has 'aroundchapters' apparently.20
Yeah, that sucked, lol. Funnily enough, RE7 has the exact same problem.
Classic Mode is the thing I want to know about the most.

Edited it so it's more obvious what it pertains too, but not precise. It's not a big spoiler, but I was curious.
