Today's game is Control. I've been wanting to finally finish this after beating Alan Wake II. Today, i 100% Silent Hill 2, and decided to pick it up and give it a try. I must have stopped at the worst time because i stopped right before the ashtray maze, and i finally understand why people love this game. I don't want to spoil it for people who haven't played. But it was super fucking cool.
The game also just generally is pretty, which i appreciate. The quarry reminds me of the Xen from Half Life:
The stars in the sky i love too. I'm a sucker for anything space so i was happy to see the stars.
I also played around with the Photo Mode with Jesse. Here's one i got of her pulling the switch:
I spent so long trying to time it right, i'm really happy with how it turned out.
I'm disappointed i sat on it this long, especially with Alan Wake being one of my favorite games of all time and knowing the connection this had too it. Initially i dropped it because i struggled with the combat and stepped away thinking it wasn't for me. I don't know what it is but stepping back into it, it just clicks for me now and i love it. I finished up the main story today and started on the Foundation DLC today.
Heck yeah man! Enjoy! All of it is good, especially if you enjoy the lore.
