    I’ve been waiting for a sale before grabbing it on xbox. Moderate fan of the original AW and absolutely loved Control. Remedy are amongst the most unique devs out there right now.

      I loved Control.

      I absolutely could not get into AW, and it bums me out because it seemed intriguing.

        Same. I wanted to like the mechanic but the flashlight levels just feel grindy and repetitive. The rest of the game is beautiful. Control feels like you can recover from your mistakes more.

        You should try the second. It’s an excellent game, and you can very much get by without having played the first. Just read a synopsis of the first and you’re good to go.
