I’m still playing Alan Wake 2: spoiler I finished the Oceanview Hotel part with Wake, the atmosphere was so thick you could chew it, but it surprised me less than previous chapters in terms of inventive. I finished the retirement home and Sheriff Station with Saga and it’s getting better, the story picks up but I still find her parts less interesting. I started the Lake House DLC and it’s nice to play some new FBC-related content, I have high expectations for this one. The DLC seems to run better than the base game, they probably optimized it better, I don’t know. Overall Saga’s parts are the worst offenders in terms of performance for whatever reason. When in doubt, comfort food, take 2: I have nearly 80 hours clocked in Heaven’s Vault, but all those hours have been spent playing it on handhelds (first Steam Deck and then Legion Go). Now I don’t have a handheld to play it on and I can’t get into it that much, so I changed games. I am reading The Invincible, a book I got after playing the game based on it, so I thought a second playthrough would be a good idea. And it was, I love this game. It’s a short walking simulator with great atmosphere and story, and the graphics are quite good for what it is, they are not too complicated but everything is solid. The art style deserves a mention here, the 60s high tech sci-fi aesthetic is gorgeous, I think they nailed it. It looks gorgeous on my CRT. I almost forgot, the voice acting is pretty good too IMO. I’ve played Tainted Grail a bit longer, the game is fine and runs fine, still not sure if I’ll finish it but I think I’m going to keep playing it.
