I don't think it explains why the game is a sales flop. In addition to skipping Steam, a bigger factor is Epic doesn't do their job as a publish which is marketing games. Most publishers spend the whole development budget again just on marketing. Sweeney thinks he can get around all the middle men of the games industry and he's proving himself wrong.

Cooke 2,061 Posted August 11 Share Posted August 11 Calling a game Alan Wake is pretty uninspiring. To people who have no idea, it really does sound boring. Max Payne, Control, Quantum Break, they sound exciting. Link to post Share on other sites
Remij 5,018 Posted August 11 Share Posted August 11 For this game not having a physical version definitely did affect it. The other issue is that it was EGS exclusive on PC. That right there will vastly limit the audience that would have picked this up on PC. Epic funded the game though, so I mean.. it is what it is. It's a shame though, because the game was great and Remedy is definitely a talented developer. I'd hate for them to end up like Ready at Dawn Link to post Share on other sites

-GD-X★ 8,300 Posted August 14 Share Posted August 14 the combat is bad. maybe it's better with a kb+m, but i didn't enjoy the combat with a controller. aside from that, the game has insane production values. but it doesn't have mass appeal. i think horror shooters should scale back on budget, since they mainly appeal to a niche group of fans.

You only seem to be annoyed when the people you don't like mentions these issues. Then you jump into names and behave like an angry third wave feminist. Lmfao you think I get mad at women voting. This is the same hyperbolic argument you people love to spread and group everyone under. Link to post Share on other sites

This isn't true, I react negatively to stupid people saying stupid shit about an issue. Not about the topics themselves. 9 minutes ago, MalaXmaS said: Then you jump into names and behave like an angry third wave feminist. It's funny how you can't contain how much you hate women lol. 9 minutes ago, MalaXmaS said: Lmfao you think I get mad at women voting. This is the same hyperbolic argument you people love to spread and group everyone under. You literally brought up feminism while arguing with a man on a site with zero women on it.
