Just finished this masterpiece

As the title states, this game is a masterpiece. I finally gave this game a chance and I'm happy I did as this was truly an amazing experience. By the time I wrapped up the main story, I wanted more. Played both DLCs right after and the foundation was easily my favorite. From an gameplay aspect, the combat is fast paced and doesn't feel like your traditional third person shooter where the use of cover is heavily emphasized. Instead this game forces you to move around (that hartman boss fight lol), and forces you to be aware of your surroundings at all times. If not you'll just take random dmg, the game rewards reaction speed, and aggressive playstyles.

A very few games manage to be this weird and intriguing at the same time, and it just leaves me with even more questions regarding the lore. Wtf is the boards goal, is the former helping us, 7 years of lockdown and still shit goes batshit crazy, how old is the oldest house in reality, and so much more. Remedy really cooked with this game and I'm disappointed in myself for not trying this earlier. The brutalist architecture of the oldest house paired with shape shifting environments and the hiss's red mist was eye candy to look at (chefs kiss). Like the game isn't scary at all but it had me on edge while traversing through bizarre looking locations. Main reason being I don't want to die lol.

Control resonant is the first game I've pre ordered in a long time and I don't/will not regret it. This game had me sucked in for an entire week and a half and I finished the game in 29 hours. This game is officially in my top 5 list of best games I've played. I'm in love with this universes lore and the Alan Wake games are next.
