Another banger from remedy.

The combat and traversal start out a bit slow with limited abilities and weapon modes but slowly get more and interesting as you unlock more of them.

The main story on the other hand starts out with a bang but ends on a whimper.

The world building is excellent though. I actually enjoyed reading all the collectible entries.
I love control for the same reason I love breath of the wild. If you can see it, you can go there. Sometimes you just have to be a little creative to be able to get there but you'll get there.

The foundation dlc is excellent but the AWE dlc is kinda meh. AWE is more of a long ass teaser for Alan Wake 2 than a control dlc tbh.

Overall I liked the game a lot. The combat, story and characters, worldbuilding, sound design are all excellent and it's been one of my favourite single player experiences in the last few years.
