I’m also starting to feel the FOMO for Alan Wake 2. I wasn’t a big fan of the original game but I love Remedy and Control was simply amazing.
I like the mystery surrounding it all and while I was lukewarm towards Control, bringing Alan Wake into the mix really got me interested. So I’ve been patiently waiting for Alan Wake 2 since the last Control DLC and I really hope the redhead makes an appearance in the game.

How is LotR: Return to Moria?
It is a survival game, it is set in LOTR in the mines of Moria. It has dwarves etc. The game is not amazing or innovative in the genre but it does the trick of feeling like a life threatening scramble through the darkness. So I would rate it as good!

I tried hard but I just couldn’t get into Lords of the Fallen.
How is Alan Wake 2? I’m hoping that I’ll finish Starfield this weekend so I can start that next (instead of one of the tons of games waiting for me in my backlog). I really hope the events of Control will somehow tie in with the game. I’m actually going to be disappointed if it doesn’t.

What about Lords of the Fallen did you not like? Not a soulslike fan? For me it’s one of the best games I’ve played this year. The only problem I have with it is it’s technical issues (performances and frequent crashes towards to end, especially crashes during boss fights annoyed me). I love that they added the ability to reset your game world after beating but keeping the same difficutly. Now I can steamroll all those early bosses and show them who the real boss is.
Alan Wake 2 is great so far! I didn’t really enjoy the first game that much but I love Remedy and Control is amazing so when I heard AW2 and Control are in the same universe I just had to get it. So far I haven’t seen a direct connection to Control’s events but I’ve encountered some FBC things.

I believe this was my response… can’t remember much more than that.

I can’t say I agree with that but to each their own. For me the combat is amazing. Feels much, much better than Lies of P IMO.
EDIT: Wait a minute. You’re talking about the 2014 Lords of the Fallen? I’m talking about the 2023 Lords of the Fallen that came out like 2 weeks ago. It’s super confusing that they soft rebooted the game and used exactly the same name, but it is what it is. I do agree that the 2014 one was not the greatest. The 2023 one is very different though, much faster and more responsive combat.

Good to know. I haven’t tried Lies of P either, but I’ll see to give either of them a shot sometime. I somewhat liked the idea of the story from Lords of the fallen if I remember correctly, so if the gameplay and combat is better, that might be worth a try then.
For now though, I’m finally done with Starfield so next weekend, it is Alan Wake 2.

Finished Tomb Raider(2013), now busy with Rise of the Tomb Raider, not doing 100% runs, but I might do it with the last one I plan to play: Shadow of the Tomb Raider.

Alan Wake 2. It’s awesome. Max Payne and the janitor from Control has made an appearance thus far.

That’s not Max Payne, that’s Alex Casey. 
It is very weird seeing Max Payne’s face and hearing his voice and it not being him.

I’m still playing Diablo IV season 2 and Starfield.
Must really focus on the main campaign of Starfield a bit and finish it.
As for Forza Motorsport, I completely uninstalled it. Buggy mess of a game. First time I rated a game one star on the XBox store.

Alan Wake 2 has ruined gaming for me at the moment. Nothing I play keeps my interest. Nothing I play can compare.

After not playing Starfield in quite a while, I continued now and I just don’t feel like continuing. It’s a shame because I’ve spent quite a lot of hours in it. Don’t think I’ll ever actually finish it.
So now playing:
Erica - PS5
Diablo IV Season 2 - PC

Finished Erica. Nice and short. Was pretty good but could have been better.
Currently busy with:
The Dark Pictures Anthology: Little Hope - PS5
Diablo IV Season 2 - PC
