I picked up the PC version of Alan Wake. Heard a lot of hype and it connects to Control. Gameplay is... Idk. Aim and shoot at dark monsters. I do like the effect around the enemies though.

Then I found out my Switch is not fried, so ive continued my Tears of the Kingdom save after beating it. There's just so much to do in the game it's a lot of fun.

Alan Wake is a game that should be right up my alley, but I don't think it's a particularly good game. It's very repetitive, the gameplay doesn't evolve that much. The story is fine, and the world is interesting. I haven't played the sequel, particularly because I didn't really enjoy my time with the first, but I've heard it's much improved over the first.
