The time mechanic and movie cutscenes are nice. The game runs really bad even on high end hardware, and Alan Wake looks better than this.

-Even after a bunch of patches (and the Upscaling option turned off) the game looks like it's running at a lower resolution.
-It runs at at locked 59hrz (for me), causing stuttering in some parts.
-The movie cutscenes are streamed in real-time, they cannot be downloaded like the Xbox One version.
-There are in-game cutscenes that are locked at 30fps causing some jarring transitions to the 60fps gameplay.

If you got it on Humble Monthly not much harm done. But don't pay full price for it, wait for a heavely discounted price.

My system:
Core i7-7700K 4.20GHz

GTX 1080 8GB

cutscenes are 30fps like in 95 % of the games. Else quality is fine:sunglassesDoge:

Same thing, Upscaling turns the internal resolution down. Looks even worse.

Turning the upscaling back on with increase texture resolution.
