    Ilkka getting to act and voice his own character, and it being Tom was such a good call, and also gave Ilkka a chance at portraying a character entirely.

      Yeah I kind of don't like that they do the voice/ motion mismatch thing but at the same time? I love Matthew Porretta's voice as Alan, though I feel like Ilkka could easily train himself into that voice if he had to. Horizon Zero Dawn/ Forbidden West does this too. Hannah Hoekstra being the image and Ashley Burch being the voice. Now, the voice nobody alive could mimic? James McCaffrey's LOL

    Both these characters are written so well as Melanie mentioned. And getting them see together in a live action scene was also so cool. Here's hoping that someday, I can talk in depth with her about her role

      Hello, you. Always there for all things Alan Wake haha

  • @ItsJuls1
    @ItsJuls1 2 месяца назад +125

    There's a point in the game where Saga and Alan meet in the overlap, and from Saga's perspective, she's very frustrated and angry at Wake for having written Logan into the story, but from Alan's side, he perceives their meeting as a good thing, where he sees Saga as a good force helping him. I thought that was kind of a beautiful way to show how differently we can experience things.

      For Wake, it may well have been subconscious validation that he finally got it right. Consider the Night Springs DLC (whose episodes pop up in the main game once it's been installed). Those were his previous attempts to reach out to potential allies--Rose, Jesse Faden and Tim Breaker--that got him nowhere. Saga was his first true success.

    Remedy's games are a whole different genre tbh. No matter what they are, action, horror, or story-focused survival games, they all share the bizarre, Remedy touch. It's like its own sub-genre.

    • @BlazingOwnager
      @BlazingOwnager 2 месяца назад +3

      @@shpeenut I think aside from the unfortunate associations, there's another problem with Alan Wake 2: If you want a PRAYER of understanding it, you better have deep dived Remedy lore going all the way back to Death Rally including the games that "aren't in the Remedyverse" like Quantum Break. I did, so I loved the game with one of the craziest most extensive lores ever, but if you're aiming for those Resident Evil bucks, it won't hit the target. It was made for it's target audience and hit *that* target - but not a general audience. I'm not even criticizing them for this - it was a game made for those of us who love Remedy games, I just feel bad the studio is always fighting money problems.

    • @johnathonhaney8291
      @johnathonhaney8291 2 месяца назад +4

      ​​​@@BlazingOwnager That's a total misread of the overall story of AW2. First, you're not SUPPOSED to know everything that is going on, not even at the end of the Final Draft. You get your basic questions answered and that's it.
      Second, it's never a priority in any Remedy game to know all the Easter eggs. For instance, I had no clue about the Max Payne/Alex Casey connection and the references to Old Gods Of Asgard and Bright Falls meant nothing to me when I was playing Control the first time. None of that subtracted from my enjoyment and understanding of the main story.

    • @BlazingOwnager
      @BlazingOwnager 2 месяца назад

      @@johnathonhaney8291 I think that's more the case for Control than AW2. I don't think it's a misread to say that you will grasp things far, far, far better if you've really done a deep dive in lore and the other games before playing AW2; where as in Control, it's just some winks and a nod.
      What I'm saying is for a newbie, Control is *way* easier to jump into than Alan Wake 2. Same with Alan Wake 1 and Control or Quantum Break (which really figures in, esp in Time Breakers for some major lore dumps, even if 'non-canon'). Alan Wake 2 quadruples down on the connections.

She did such a great job in her performance as Saga in Alan Wake 2, such as her roles in Brian Banks & Bad Boys Ride or Die!!!

      Compare the in game models of the actors in a Remedy Game to the rest of "AAA."
      If Ubisoft made Alan Wake, Saga would have gained a double wide face with no expression outside of her lower face and Alan would have a thousand yard stare and look like a cartoon.

      Yeah, the whole team, from Sam Lake on down, has consistently acknowledged that. Alan's relatable but he's also a bit of a self-indulgent prick. Without other people in his life to anchor him, he just loses the plot (pun intended).

    Saga's character is so unbelievably well written. Little theory I've had for the longest time is that since Saga was originally going to be portrayed as white, her original father might have been Tim Breaker instead of Warlin Door. I honestly prefer it being Door though. The sheer tension between Alan and Door because of this is fantastic. Saga's character over all is such a masterpiece in the final product. The only complaint I could even give would be that singular out of place line in the late game. It's such a random and undeserved tonal shift at the most critical moment in her character arc. Those who know will know exactly what I'm talking about.

      How's this for a theory: If we accept that Saga's granddad and great-uncle are reincarnations of their namesakes, then that would potentially make Door another Norse myth figure (recall the page Alan wrote where Odin lost his eye). To wit, Mir, guardian of the fountain of knowledge.

      ​@@solidspooks1290 That's only if you accept the antagonist interpretation of Door, which I don't. Could have just easily been the Dark Place that took Phat Bob with that leukemia.
      Also, in the myths, Mir was the one who took Odin's eye as payment for the drink...just like Door did.

      @@johnathonhaney8291 He is objectively the villain after DLC 3, but before that it was heavily implied since he is just Martin Hatch, and during his angry exchange with Alan he says "The next time we meet will be under very different circumstances."
      I actually wasn't aware of the Mir part, but that does open up some new interpretations. I had originally thought he was Loki since Loki also played with the Old Gods, his name was "Loki Darkens", and they call Warlin Door the "Dark One." Plus, we can see very clearly his musical expertise in Herald of Darkness. Also, the death of Baldur is what initiates Ragnarok, and if Odin and Tor are fighting against anyone, it seems like it might be Door. Then again, in Anger's Remorse they claim that they were the ones that drove Door away, not the other way around.

      ​@@solidspooks1290 Door is neutral in the extreme. If he seems like a villain, it's because he has a far different set of priorities than the humans he deals with.
      "Time Breaker" was the very essence of "unreliable narrator" condensed into story form. So I wouldn't trust the Actor to have been within a million miles of the truth on Door.
      Oh and the Norse also had a mythical name for the Dark Place: Ginnungagap. Strikes me that a sentient force like that would have a vested interest in kicking off Ragnarok, hence why I think it killed Phat Bob.

    Both games were brilliant and very unique experiences. Creative plot and gameplay, memorable characters, entertaining dialogue, phenomenal music… just a great all around adventure.

      Yeah, that's a deliberate gray area. Zane's lost "Lady Of The Light" was still thinking that too. Given how the force in the lake warps reality, who knows what the truth is right now?

    It is always baffling when you figure out an actor is British when the character is not.
