Sam openly talking about how the team wants to stay focused on the game rather than put time into a demo that will most likely change by the final product... Man it's so nice to hear someone in charge saying that. We need more like Sam and the Remedy team in the industry.
Amazing work, and I hope to see you all when a presentable build of the game is ready😉
Seriously, I don’t need a demo presentation to know damn well that I’m buying this on day one no matter what. I would much rather the developers come out and tell us that they think it would be a waste of time to put something together ahead of time as opposed to simply getting the game together and showing us some snippets when they’re fully baked.
This is how every videogame companies should treat their audiences and fans. They don't want showcases every now and then, but Real updates on what is going on inside and what could we expect. Such a legend Sam Lake is and their teams to respect their fans. I expect no less than a masterpiece and can confirm they'll deliver. Can't wait to see lights ;)
I really wish your comment would be pinned.
@@Szmajdzik Wish granted
Agreed
Just for maximum meta-ness, we need a character in Alan Wake 2 who's modelled after Matthew Porretta but voiced by Ilkka Villi.
Idea is so good and obvious for Remedy that I have a feeling we might actually see it in AW II :)
"Write that down, WRITE THAT DOWN"
- Sam Lake to his assistant right now probably
That would be so good. With Control being in same universe, if they did that, both actors would then have like four roles in the games
love this idea but since Alan Wake and Control are connected, wouldn't people be confused on why there's a character that looks like Dr. Darling from Control existing in Alan Wake 2? even if it's a different voice
Lol yes please
Unironically yes, wow. That would be awesome.
Sam Lake is the European Hideo Kojima and deserves as much love
He really is.
Couldn't have said it better.
Sam Lake is a visionary on the same tier as Hideo Kojima or Cory Barlog. A real shame he doesn't get more merit and exposure for his work
Sam is on par with Hideo to me.
He already has, Max Payne is out there, and Alan Wake.
His passion for creativity and storytelling with gameplay is astounding
@@BoomBoomstick They are friends by the way.
True
Max Payne will never be forgotten.
Nothing brings me more joy then seeing these 3 together.
Only thing that could make this better would be James McCaffrey and Courtney Hope being in there too.
I don't know what it is, but every time I see Sam, I cannot help but smile. He always manages to get my spirits up!
@@GoldenGyroBalls That would be cool too! Add in Shawn Ashmore too!
@@LSK2K hi Leon! Lol
brooooo why is Ilkka Villi so majestic
And he's 48 years old
Ilkka speaks english so well. Sami should write a character for Ilkka to be the voice and use Matthews looks.
That's would be interesting, wow. I'd love to see that. 👏😊
funny enough ilkka voices thomas zane
@@chonkycat2867he’s also the physical actor for him.
I loved the line in The Final Draft where he told Dr. Darling that he sounded familiar and Darling said Zane looked familiar
I am so unbelievably excited. Alan Wake being the first game to get me into the art of Games and Story, I can't wait to see what the team at Remedy brews up.
I really wanna see a character voiced by Ilkka Villi, with the likeness of Matt Poretta. And he should be named Mr.Wade Allain.
Can't help but get emotional seeing you all together and knowing Alan's story will continue.
hey nice to see you here
looking forward to lots of AW2 videos from you after release
It makes me so much more happy to know that the guys at Remedy take their time to put out the best possible game they could make. Still hope that they will feed us with trailers as the time goes on up to releasing the game.
Almost as excited about your analysis videos as I am for the game itself!
Oh, hey there, the most underrated Alan Wake/Control channel! I hope guys from Remedy notice you. It would be really cool if you did an interview or something with someone from the team!
I’m as excited to see your theory vids leading up to the release of AW2 and afterwards as much as I am to play the game, my guy. 👍
Ilkka and Matt still being that ready to play Alan Wake after almost 17 years is so great to see!
Bruh, it has not been 17 years bro 💀💀💀
@@hansolo6831 Both were probably cast around 2005 to 2006, I presume. Alan Wake had a looong development time. So yes, this would be about 17 years.
@@hansolo6831 he literally says 17 years at like 3:20
Alan Wake was one of the first games I saved up for and bought. So excited! 😭😁
Remedy always delivers, the logo and the name is a seal of quality. One of the very few companies that haven't lost their touch after all this time. I wish them the best for all future projects. I'll be there till the end!
So glad they, Respawn and Nintendo still keep things up.
SquareEnix and others have lost their minds...
@@repeekyraidcero Square Enix literally sold Tomb Raider and other games to invest in NFT’s lol.
@@jesse646 Not just sold...sold them for peanuts! But maybe now we get more Deus Ex, so I'm happy.
@@repeekyraidcero Nintendo’s been going downhill lately
I guess you didn't play the Crossfire X campaign...
As a switch owner, thanks for putting Alan Wake on the switch!!
You're welcome! =D
Oh I thought you meant the clicker
What makes Remedy games stand out is that each of them has a soul of its own. The characters and the atmosphere is unforgettable, the writing, the script, the storytelling is just flawless. Maybe their games are not incredibly successful commercially but they are pure gems of gaming industry to me.
And of course Sam Lake is a great guy with a great smile =)
I think after Alan wake 2 they definitely are getting recognized more because it was an awesome experience of a game like Alan wake silent hill and resident evil all rolled into one in the best possible way without being too much of one of those games
I know Ilkka joked about growing old with the character, but he still looks great - it would be perfect if the TV series cast him as Alan.
To add onto my original comment - this is my first time hearing him speak English, he could definitely pull off an American accent too. :)
Wouldn't be Alan Wake without him. He IS Alan Wake after all these years.
Ilkka Villi is underrated...he is great as the evil mr scratch in term of facial mannerism and body language. (even its its not his voice)
Played it for the First time ever this week. It was a hell of a time, and I followed it with Control. Remedy is an awesome group of people, pouring there unique & episodic storytelling style into their games, and I'm here for it.
Felt great to see, Wake, Darling & Max together.
Play Quantum Break
God I love Alan Wake can’t wait for the sequel
I just completed the game last night, and I gotta say, especially if you love all the meta /crossover stuff, this newest entry does not disappoint. Starts a lot slower, but plays like an episode of X files!! :D
I recently picked up Control Ultimate edition and had no idea what to expect. The AWE DLC made me so happy seeing and hearing Alan again after all these years. Really excited to see where the story takes us.
Can we appreciate that an Alan Wake TV show is on the table please…..
Alan Wake is one of my all-time favorite games and was my first introduction to Remedy. Since then every game of theirs has been a must buy. Can't wait for THE RETURN.
If I like them, I'll start to believe that all videogame companies starting with"R" must be good
(Rebellion, Respawn, Remedy, Rockstar)
@@repeekyraidcero no way you just said rockstar after what they’ve been doing💀💀💀💀
@@repeekyraidcero One of those is not like the others 👀
Hey funny part is half segment of alan wake 2 is called Return
What’s amazing to me is how Sam Ilkka and Matt all contribute to making Alan feel real. All 3 of their perspectives from different creative fields come together and there’s a real sense of it being a team effort. Sam obviously came up with Alan as the writer but there’s no ego in him, illkka and Matt are just as important and they offer each other material to work off which in turn fleshes Alan out. As a fan since 2010 I cannot wait to play the sequel.
Dude I love Sam Lake. Things can't be bad if he's around.
Playing control, I always thought the voice of Darling sounded somehow familiar, but couldn't put my finger on it. Only by scrolling through lore pages, looking up news on AW 2 did I find this and realize that it was because the voice actor of Alan Wake, was also playing Darling. Goddamn, this is getting meta. Love the two franchises, and the fact that they are not only linked in game, but also in terms of actors is amazing. Can't wait for the next chapter from Remedy.
Yea! Darling in the game was an actual darling. That character was awesome, and I love how they tie everything together. Also AW2 has some amazing crossover material, I'll say that. Having just finished it the other day, I highly recommend it.
It all clicked for me when I found the hidden audio of Alan Wake within Control. After watching and listening to Darling for so long, I immediately heard it in his voice.
The TV show HAS to be super Twin Peaks vibes and weirdness.
hopefully not a respin of the 3 games, original content set in the dark place etc
Such great casting for the look and sound of Alan. For the longest, I never knew they were different people who did both. Their look and voice go together so well in the game. Can't wait for the sequel!
Very much looking forward to the sequel and hopeful for the TV show too.
Impossible to not completely light up seeing Sam Lake talk about his passions. No matter how completely dark your day might have been. Cannot wait to just absorb more of his writing into my being. Writing that has over the years playing games (1980s to now) become my favorite writing in video games ever. Nothing else really comes close anymore.
With both Max Payne remasters and this on the horizon my Remedy-hype levels are back up at the all-time highs of waiting for Max Payne 1 again.
Immensely happy to see this franchise come back! Thank you so much for this amazing video!
I'm sorry, IT'S BEEN 12 YEARS?! 👁️👄👁️
I still consider it to be one of the best storylines ever told. Gave me a motivation to start writing books myself. I will forever be thankful to Alan for that.
Yea, its true! Especially for a videogame, it really stands out.
@@BattleBladeWarrior Now I can tell that Disco Elysium has beaten Alan story-wise. But he's still strong Number Two!
@@ZwiekszoneRyzyko Traitor!!! jk lol
Remedy never misses. Max Payne is my all time favorite game, and the rest are incredible as well.
The friendship between Ilkka & Matt is super goddamn wholesome, what a wildly unique position they're in as actors.
So excited for one of my favourite dev teams to tackle my favourite genre and equally as excited at the prospect of them returning to Max Payne, it's a great time to be a Remedy fan.
Is Ilkka the body double? Finn VA?
@@BON3SMcCOY I believe so
@@BON3SMcCOY Ilkka is the physical actor for Alan Wake being the face-model, mo-cap actor, and live-action actor for Alan. Matt is the voice actor, he voices everything for Alan, even dubs over Ilkka in any live-action segments with Alan.
Another special thing about Remedy is that they remain friends with the voice actors and the faces of the fictional characters!
Thanks guys. Massive fan of Sam’s. Also love how remedy actually care about the fans and gamers by keeping regular updates and communication known. Rockstar take note!
I was in ecstasy when i saw the trailer, been saying for 12 years now... that Alan Wake, is my favorite title, there is just something so genuine about it, something i haven´t had really since, it's really just one of these experiences that stays with you. i cannot wait for AW2.
Awesome update! Great concept art! Take as much time as you need, guys, make it perfect! We can wait a bit longer. Thank you so much for your amazing work! Happy anniversary, Alan Wake! 🎉
Alan Wake 2 is close now. I can feel the light.
Games like BG3 and AW2 are works of love. They are done not by following some sales chart but passionate peoples ideals. They are becoming rare each year. We were lucky to be blessed by two in 2023. I hope you guys never stop making games that people love playing.
This game is going to look absolutely gorgeous on the OLED screen, omg.
Sorry to break it to you, but you'll be seeing a huge downgrade in graphics.
@@L4veyan Yeah, but I'm sure it will still look fine, same as Dying Light and Hellblade do🤷♂️
@@danipatac7210 They'd have to do some magic then, because even on pc it's way too demanding because of the old game engine.
Strange to see Dr Darling without his lab coat. We already know that AlanWake is very intergral to Control storyline. I wonder if we see more of Jesse Faden, FBC and Hiss in Alan Wake 2.
This game was released on my birthday. I got this game as a present for my birthday. One of the best presents ever. Thank you!
I'm playing AW2 right now and it's a fascinating, mind bending experience. It's a showcase not only for Remedy's in-house game engine, but also Remedy's storytelling prowess. It's a very impressive, truly next-gen feeling artistic experience.
Bought the original day one. Absolutely loved it. Thank you for making the sequel after all these years. Been hoping for this for years
Omg, I can't even imagine what the show is gonna be like. Since Ilkka is the face of Alan I don't wanna see anyone else in that role.
Im literally exploding with passion and affection and energy everytime I see these wonderful people and any mention of remedys work from an official source.
I'm here Just to say thanks to sam lake for going against the people who said to remove from the game,the part with poets of the fall in Allan's wake part,with the musical in giant screens!!! It was the best part/ the most fan and enjoyable part and also very very unique, i haven't seen again something like this in any other game, i loved it!! Thanx again Sam for not letting them remove that part and thanx poets of the fall for that great song!!!!! Its just amazing and love the electric guitar in it!!!! and also the other one with saga, the summoning was great too!!! Thumbs-up!!!!! 👍👍👍
Love you guys, I've been waiting 12 years and I'll continue to wait how ever long it takes!
I love the excitement on display from everyone on screen and everyone here in the community! Do what you need to do to make what you want to make Remedy Crew! I have such such fond memories of playing the original in 2010 and I've been enjoying my time in the remaster the last few days! Keep it up team!
It’s amazing seeing them all together and I’m not disappointed at all that their not showing any gameplay I’m happy with seeing concept art
Thanks for everything Remedy, can’t wait!!
If they dropped a trailer that was just a thermos in engine I'd be happy
I absolutely love the story in Alan Wake! After all these years it is still one of my favorites. Mikko Rautalahti once said that those scriptpages that you can find was very difficult to write but I’m so glad you added those because that was one of the things that stood out to me first time playing the game. It really adds to the atmosphere and they were so well written. Can’t wait to play Alan Wake 2!
Also, it’s ok if making the TV show will take some time, I’m so happy it’s still happening!!
I still hope to see an Alan Wake TV Series on AMC.
Right????? I haven't seen this video before and that news got me really excited, I just hope that somethings actually happening with it because alan wake would work wonders for a TV show.
All these wholesome comments, actually sweet and touching.
Aaaand then there’s me going “Villkaaa hhngrrfnuuugh!”
I love these strange, unsettling, beautiful stories you guys create, and will continue to look forward to every release in the future.
Thank you for the update video! So excited! :)
Remedy's passion never fails to inspire.. Wishing the team great trails for all their developments 💜 I'll be staying in the light for all the upcoming news.
So the purpose of doing a remaster of Alan Wake 1, 2 years before releasing Alan Wake 2 was to refresh the memory of the ones that plaied it on Xbox and to bring new people to play it before playing Alan Wake 2. That is realy a good thing they did because u wont uderstand anything from Alan Wake 2 without playing the first.
Красавцы!!! Ждем. Одна из любимых игр, и студий. Спасибо за вашу работу!!! Сложно кратко выразить восхищение вашей работой, молодцы!!!
I love how Ilkka joked about Jake Gyllenhaal maybe playing Alan Wake in the sequel.
So looking forward to the switch version, and ofcourse Alan Wake 2, and the TV show.
You take all the time you need Sam! I have been more than happy to wait this long I'm happy to wait longer because I know the effort from you and everyone involved will make this an incredible experience!
I am very happy!!! Thank you, Sam Lake and Remedy. I look forward to watching the TV series. I have two copies of the novel Alan Wake, both in paperback and ebook version which I bought.
Thank you for being an inspiration for me!
From New York to you … you guys rock !!! Beautiful and amazing game !!! Thank you
Absolutely beyond stoked. Love Remedy and the great work they do.
Perfectly fine waiting for more, waited 12 years, I can wait more. So dang excited for this !!!
This game turned out BETTER than i ever hoped for after waiting 13 years since i played the Alan Wake 1 when it came out and loved it!! Thanks for pushing the boundaries and being one of the most original and creative studios of all time in gaming! I thank you all at Remedy! ❤
The team at Remedy are my favourite game developers.
You guys continue to inspire my budding filmmaking journey. Thank you.
Best thing about the Remedy Developers that they create such optimized games like Control with amazing graphics and story that can easily run at 60fps in an non gaming ultrabook laptops.
Max Payne and Alan Wake in the same place, that would make a great crossover. I know Sam is in Alan Wake 2, but would be cool if he played Max in the game
Little did you know... 😉
Thanks guys! Thanks👍!!!
I'm smiling from ear to ear right now I love Alan wake and I'm Soo hyped for Alan wake 2
Happy Anniversary! So many exciting things in store, great job everyone for making it happen!
Well, I’m very excited! Thx you, Remedy for your brilliant and amazing games!
Guys, you are the best 🙌🏻 thank you for making us happy :) we’ll wait until it’s done, take your time
sinä olet todella hyvä, kiitos❤️
This really put a smile on my face. Love these guys.
I'm really happy with this. I'm a fan of Alan Wake and this guys deserve the best.
Platinumed the game and it was amazing! Can’t wait for the dlcs
RIP James max payne 3 is my favorite game and that to the incredible actuation he made
Fantastic !!!
With the countless times I've finished Max Payne and subsequently Alan Wake I am just so eager to see what Remedy releases no matter what it is. I absolutely love the literary and substantive story telling of Remedy as it continues to evolve. They're the best immersive gaming experiences. Here's hoping TV's Alan Wake makes us laugh, cry and hide under the sheets.
How can one studio have such charm when talking about games
the 2 actors playing allan ie ikka villi and mathew poretta are 2 differnt people but they are joined as allan wake you guys the voice and the movement so good togther = 1 kick ass character
I’m SOOOOOOO EXCITED about Switch version would coming out in the near future! Taking this game and play it every time everywhere was my wishful dream for years! And i’m so happy to see you guys still working on this title, and team members of yours also enjoying this adventure of creating Alan Wake series! Just take my money!
I am so excited this game is everything Alan wake is everything to me I was in tears while watching this I loved watching these 3 of them talking and spending time together there Amazing got great chemistry
Remedy you're amazing I love you
THANK YOU GUYS FOR EVERYTHING. I HAVE NEVER BEEN SO HAPPY IN YEARS
Remedy, thank you so much for giving me Alan Wake in my life
love you lot and the games you make, never stop
I’m new to this remedy thing and I’m loving it!
This is lovely ❤️❤️ I want Alan Wake 2 sooooon ❤️❤️
I love Alan wake so much. it is tradition for me to play through it every year! and now it's going to be on the switch? Portably? I'm so excited ugh 😍 thank you
Nice update. Can't wait for the rest of the journey to begin!
Replaying 1 via remastered (+ the Special episodes) before eventually getting II for my 5! Still love it + Control as well, your studio is phenomenal!
So glad I meet Alan Wake on my old and trusty Xbox 360 Elite back in the day. I treasure the game in my heart.
Hoping to get a hard copy of Alan Wake Remastered soon. And getting ready for Alan Wake 2 in the future.
simply heartwarming. it is nice to see the band back together after so long! happy anniversary to all the folks who made the original game and its sequel possible!
p.s. the phone booth concept art is something absolutely gripping! extremely hyped and patient. do your best!
I’m convinced we’re getting Noir York City from Max Payne 2. John Mirra, who was a doppelgänger of the protagonist, would contact him through pay phones as he attempted to navigate Noir York City. Mirra was pretending to be John, after having kidnapped John’s girlfriend and starting a serial killing spree using his face.
The landscape was said to shift and change with every murder Mirra committed, making it a nightmare for the protagonist to maneuver through with any semblance of direction. Sounds absolutely perfect for something like The Dark Place, a metaphysical space that can be altered through the act of creation. Especially taking into account that Alan Wake wrote a book called ‘Return to Sender’, which is exactly what the Address Unknown marathon is called in Max Payne 2 that details John Mirra’s antics in Noir York. 👀😱
@@xCarnageV1 damn that actually sounds somewhat interesting, the only issue is that Remedy is not in possession of the rights to Max Payne universe. Although I suppose something like this may happen because of Alex Casey books and this guy is basically Max Payne. Well, we'll have to just wait and see!
@@Dub4Life Remedy just entered into an agreement with Rockstar to do full remakes of Max Payne 1 and 2 for next-gen consoles using the Northlight Engine, the same engine used for Control and Alan Wake 2. There is a very real possibility that Remedy will work new lore into those remakes that can permanently tie it back into the established Remedyverse, even if it’s only in vague ways.
They can easily explain Max Payne’s world as a reality separate from Alan’s, one that he unknowingly was able to see in visions disguised as inspiration. These visions led him to create Alex Casey as a character for his books.
The only catch is that Control confirmed Alex Casey is a real person, he exists, AND he’s looking for Alan. Dylan says of one of his dreams, ‘in one world, there was a writer who wrote a story about a cop. In another world, the cop was real.’ That implies that Alex Casey is either from another reality entirely, or that Alex Casey is a creation of Alan’s, inspired by the reality of Max Payne. But Control also confirmed that Alan can’t effectively ‘create’ people, he can only use things already tethered to our reality and force them into outcomes that he (or the story) finds desirable. So that makes me wonder if Alex Casey effectively IS Max Payne, pulled from his world and awakening as someone entirely different, and yet the same.
Sorry for the unhinged rant, this sequel just has me unbelievably excited, lol.
@@xCarnageV1 dunno if it'd be necessary or even suitable to have Max connected to the Remedy universe, although your thoughts really make it sound exciting. I appreciate it, man. And if Casey is the real Max that would be just sad. Like, the man suffered enough, found his happy end after all, and then this, lol.
Don't be sorry about anything, I probably cannot deliver the same amount of words in my replies, but I'm always up for sweet analysis or interesting thoughts. Same goes for me about excitement, this game is literally my most awaited one. The fans need to stick together, after all.
Been waiting for Alan wake 2 since I was 15 so happy we’re finally getting it!
I have never played anything more original than Alan Wake. I was sad, bitter, and upset like a child on Christmas who did not get the present that he expected when I saw that video years ago with Sam Lake saying the next game in development was not Alan Wake 2. However, now I understand how much they wanted to make the second game, and I am forever grateful that they held true to this amazing world of Alan Wake. I know Alan Wake 2 is going to be just AMAZING with today's graphical development and Remedy's talented team. Kiitos (thank you) for doing this Remedy!
All things Remedy so excited to see what’s to come and hope to collaborate and work with them in the near future.
I loved the first one. Playing the second one right know and i'm blown away. Thanks guys
I'm really happy with this. I'm a fan of Alan Wake and this guys deserves the best.
