        …I think maybe you need to play the first game again.

        There is absolutely nothing about the first game that is similar to the world jumping of everything everywhere all at once. There is a single dark place that he ends up in, and otherwise in the real world what he writes comes true.

      What do you think The Dark Place was?

      What did you think they meant by Ocean?

          That’s only info from the first game which you didn’t really play.

            I choose to believe they’re seriously criticizing you for 23 year old spoilers, it’s so much more fun.

              Do you not understand how language works? These are spoilers for Alan Wake 2 which came out this year. Alan Wake 1, both did not come out 23 years ago and has no resemblance to everything everywhere all at once.

                Did you even read the comments you’re referring to? Do you know anything about the game we’re talking about here? “The Dark Place” and “Ocean” are not spoilers for the sequel, and no one is saying the sequel is going to resemble EEAAO.

                Refamiliarize yourself with the source material, and actually read the article you can’t stop popping off about.

            There’s a single upside down / dark place / distortion of the real world in the first game. It has ZERO resemblance to EEAAO. You would know that, if you were capable of remembering what you knew before you played the second game.

              The whole shtick is writing becoming real creating multiple realities and you do realize Control with its Alan Wake dlc and Quantum Break exist along with American Nightmare and the DLCs for AW1.

                  The Signal dlc is Alan going crazy in the dark place trying to write his way out.

                  Remedy considers Quantum Break and Max Payne explicitly Canon

                  Time jumping and Hatch are a form of multiple realities.

                  Control also explicitly is about multiple worlds and realities including the Astral Plane.

      The first game is about >!Alan Wake slowly realising that while he’s saving Bright Falls, he’s also imprisoned at the bottom of the lake. He’s basically at both places at the the same time, because he’s written himself into the story.!<
