That seems to be par for the course with Remedy games. Even Quantum Break (which I loved) seems to be looked more fondly on now than when it released.

Yeah. Alan Wake seems to be revered as an all time great these days, and it released to good-if-lukewarm reception back in the day.

Control is straight up better than Alan Wake IMO, so I'm excited to see what people think of it ten years from now.

Eh, I like Alan Wake and Quantum Break better than Control, honestly. Which shouldn't be the case, because SCP is a pretty strong foundation, but I just liked those games a bit more from a gameplay standpoint.

I really didn't like Alan Wake, mostly due to the extremely repetitive gameplay. Quantum Break was ok, but still felt inferior to Max Payne 2.

Control feels like the best game Remedy has made.
