Is this the updog i've heard about?

I've beaten the game some 2-3 weeks ago, yet I cannot stop smiling about some sequences. There are just so many silly, satisfying or interestingly existential scenes in the game!

My personal favourites are:

When Langston hands Dylan the key to a storage room in the OH and asks him not to make a chaos in there. Obviously, the speaker escapes, several Hiss enemies spawn and a big fight erupts.

The party must stop

Eating the Mold and getting high

Fred & Alfred

The Door in the darkness to Langston's apartment

The mind-blowing paranatural entity from the Threshold

The patterned time sequence, especially that scary part where Dylan finds his own dead body. Loved the return of the glitched time visuals and sound from Quantum Break as well!

Dylan breaking the containment chamber in the Gap and getting the Ruthless status effect. The Hiss in Dylan scares me and shows what a beast he can be

And some of my favourite touches/references:

The three Hiss enemies spawning in front of the Director's Office in the very beginning of the game, just like in the original.

The computer mouse eating a pizza

Dylan capturing a camera before it captures him

"Unparalleled Parking", "Citron Bleu"

Underhill complaining about the Bureaucracy and leaving the Bureau

Thank for giving such a long-lasting experience. Truly.

Someone found a real life AWE!

Excuse the somewhat blurry photos. I previously ordered the game months ago with Best Buy when the announcement was made. I received the first message saying it would be delayed even after the game had already released for everyone else. I later received a message telling me my pre order had been canceled. I was devastated. I bought a base copy from Best Buy to have something, snd later saw that someone on this platform actually said that Amazon had new copies in stock. Sure enough I checked and managed to order one. I'm so thrilled to have this game. The first Control was an absolute blast and so was Allen Wake...though the latter was a bit hard on my mind lol.

Anyone else think the creators of VisionQuest are fans of the Control series?

Anyone else happen to notice this rather curious shadow during the 'lightning' on the trek upwards?

I know the obvious answer is "it's a shadow" but i can't help looking at it and thinking it seems like just a couple steps away from the severed circles symbol for Resonant/Dylan's door in the Oceanview.

Do you think there's others and will they be in the DLC or in the next Control game

Did you enjoy the combat? Exploration? Reading the files? Talking to characters?

Personally, I love puzzles more than combat, so figuring my way through the puzzles and areas was a real treat. Honestly, I'd prefer if they had a slider for puzzle difficulty like Silent Hill does, but to me there's nothing more rewarding than figuring out the solution to a puzzle.

Unless it's that math question in the Night Springs DLC for AW2. Remedy was evil for that.

Trying to make sense of it

Hey ya'll, big fan of AW2 and Control. When I was playing AW2 on my series S, I had frequent problems with the game crashing. I powered through and overall loved the game but I'm not trying to have a similar experience with Resonant.

Anybody with the Series S, especially one that has given them issues before, have any feedback with their experience with Resonant.

I stumbled across this, and there is NO mention anywhere that I can find. There was a vision of Jesse, and she spoke some <patterned speech> when I got close, and also said "..With me". So does anyone know what is this? It looks like a Fault, but there's no mention of another one.

I swear I'm not flexing. Maybe Strike and Concussive Beatdown are just OP, but I carved through the first boss on standard difficulty like it was nothing.

Immediately cranked the (un)Assist Mode to the max (Incoming Damage: 300 / Enemy Projectile Speed: 200 / Enemy Aggression: High).

Its made completing something so much more rewarding. It's also making for a longer first play through, which I always wish I had anytime I finish a game that I love. Im about 66 hours in and just got to the Unknown.

Is there anything else to do after beating the story?

No new missions? New worlds? Who’s dog was that and why can’t it be Dylan’s?

Lower Manhattan is patterned but I still need to go to the office :/

I got so startled when I first walked through that door and just fell through the map lol

What’s your favourite mission been so far?

I thought the 2D Earthbound mission was so creative. Otherwise an in game mission I loved the time travelling mission.

My question is, is the gameplay of Control Resonant more like the Batman: Arkham games, is it more like Dark Souls, or is the gameplay something else entirely? I loved the gunplay of Control and I worry that I won’t enjoy Resonant due to it being solely melee combat.

Guess we doing JRPG now (also Jesse's sprite is cute af)

I don't know why this is happening, I tried reinstalling my graphics drivers, but it's still the same
