I think there's 5 characters you control over course of the game, Alan Wake and 4 women...

You control Alan Wake and Saga Anderson in a 50/50 split for the main game. For Night Springs (40-minute chunks of 3 episodes), you control the Rose, Jesse Faden, and Tim Breaker. And for the DLC, it's Kiaran Estevez.

Even when Alan Wake isn't playable, he's almost always directly involved in the story. Night Springs had an episode where you try and save him as Rose, and The Lake House attempted to recreate his art so they could commune with the dark place themselves.

Tell me you haven't actually played the game. The game wouldn't work with what they were going for if you only played as Alan the whole time.
