Is this reasonably okay for someone who hasn't played Control or AW1, if they're not strict about needing to know all the backstory?

- wilg 3y agoYeah I played it without playing either. I did watch an AW1 recap halfway through. But its basically all so crazy its fun not knowing stuff too.
- lfkdev 3y agoAlan Wake has nothing todo with Control. AW1 is not important to know, but you'll miss some details.
- wilg 3y ago> Alan Wake has nothing todo with Control. Interesting theory.
- anaisbetts 3y ago...did we play the same game?
- rickstanley 3y agoIt has though. There are hints "everywhere" (not to be specific, otherwise I'll spoil it) in the game, but it's not vital to play AW2, I would add what you said about AW1, "you'll miss some details." AW2 is a step forward to the shared universe of Remedy.
- SketchySeaBeast 3y agoControl had a whole DLC devoted to the link (haven't played AW2 yet). https://control.fandom.com/wiki/AWE_(expansion) https://control.fandom.com/wiki/AWE_(expansion)
- squidsoup 3y agoThe Alan Wake and Tom Zane characters are mentioned in Control a number of times, and the FBC make several appearances in Alan Wake II.
