Alan Wake to be a psychological thriller game with very low common story. The first hour (approximately by mid Episode 2) it has also very well communicated. After the creepiness decreases easy - but what makes the game no worse, it's just been sensitized to the effects.
As with Max Payne much emphasis is placed on the story, and similar to MP is also the core of the game, presentation, ultimately exhausted quickly.
So shocks me in Episode 3 simply not an attack of Bessesenen more, but you can hear and know formally already, at what points emerge which.
Nevertheless: Every game has these problems and it would be unfair to say that ultimately disappointed by this game. Assasins Creed 1 & 2, as an example, are much earlier lengthy and boring, because the story is too strong interrupted with the same old monotonous tasks. Here is rather the opposite is true. This that you already know how the process of equip goes, you can fully engage in the story. And that is more than successful. Episode, the partly confusing, partly creepy story is being driven. One feels quickly in dne protagonists and simply acts in the middle. The style of narration is really awesome. But at some point it shows that become the real game for "incidental" and one further gambles mainly because of the story.
So just the episodes are going long, for example. Episode 3, in the walk you are traveling a lot and a lot of fights much opponents, those who are less well-liked (it being noted that the setting and scenario are simply brilliant)
However, one simply sees in this game the weak point that you simply can not equate games with series or films. A film in vermittel usually max 3h a story with plenty of action and plenty of depth and engages the viewer to different than such a game.
The graphics, as eh mostly in the dark, anyway rather unimportant for me. But nevertheless it brings me into ecstasy often when you can during the day to look far beyond the landscape. Otherwise rather upscale segment.
The sound is also very good and comes in a 5.1 system shows very well. Only synchronization is abhorrent. The spoils actually the whole game. The German Synchro is very unmotivated and unloving. Therefore I recommend every language to English. to ask. The game comes this much better advantage.
A good 80% rating is already justified in my opinion for the gane drumerheum. I find the story brilliantly, playing solid per se.
I am looking forward to a 2nd part!
