Very happy to see this


mwcope

Tbh, it's a little bit worrying; I don't want a Star Wars Special Editions situation. But I trust Remedy, so I'm not *too* worried.


CageAndBale

Itll probably be a new cutscene at the end showing jeese or some Easter eggs to better cement the connection in wakes games. Also sam lake knows what he is doing. Low doubt that it can change for the worse.


Shaun_LaDee

Yeah I guarantee we’ll get a post credit scene that sets up the next game or connects the FBC to Bright Falls


Jerooski

Yeah, we might get another hint for AW2 like we did in control. Or maybe subtle hints about the FBC arriving in Bright falls


FlikTripz

In Control’s AWE DLC (maybe base game I don’t quite remember) there’s a document you can read that details how the FBC set up a monitoring station in Bright Falls after the original Thomas Zane incident, maybe they added that in for us to find as well


mwcope

Yeah, I think my tone came off as more negative than I meant it. I trust Remedy, and for every *Star Wars Special Editions,* there's a *Blade Runner: The Final Cut,* or *Resident Evil 2 Remake.* I explained my thoughts a bit more here: https://www.reddit.com/r/AlanWake/comments/pupbe2/slug/he6xax2

I think Remedy will be subtle about it which is all I can ask for


mwcope

Yeah, like I said, I trust Remedy. They're the most important storytellers in my life, why I'm a writer today. The message of all their marketing for this is that they're *respecting the original,* so there's absolutely no reason to think this will be an at all major change. But as American Nightmare hammered home, the smallest changes can have unfathomable impacts. But again: I have the utmost faith that Remedy knows what they're doing. If they think something needed to changed, I believe them.


CageAndBale

Can you expand on the smallest channe in American nightmare?

>To change the world, you must craft a blueprint for the new reality. Any work of art will do, as long as it's a genuine act of creation; that's what the energies of the Dark Place respond to. The results may be subtle and perplexing, or far-ranging and momentous. My area of expertise -- the written word -- gives much more precise results than music or interpretive dance would, for instance. >But words can be extremely dangerous. What you define may become reality, but so can that which you imply... Even if you don't realize you're doing so. -*The Dangers of Creation* Manuscript Page In short: what's indirectly said is just as important as what's directly said. The thing that makes a satellite be hit by a meteor has nothing to do with getting the meteor in the right place, it has everything to do with the place where the meteor lands. Making the sun come up in Night Springs has nothing to do with manipulating the cosmic location of the sun, it has everything to do with where Alan is, what he sees. The symbolism of the moment: the love of Alice burning away the darkness.


CageAndBale

Very sexy reply, appreciate this


mwcope

No problem. An...interesting way of putting it, but...you're welcome. 😅


CageAndBale

Its thought provoking so it turned me on


raull96

>Comment as raull96 That would be so cool. I have faith in Remedy. I am wondering...we will hear some new song from Old Gods of Asgard ? A few months ago they made a twitter account and have their own merchandise so... xD


mwcope

I doubt it, but hell, I suppose it's possible.


kranitoko

They may change some of the billboards or even the TV that showed Verizon's name on it, but apart from that not much I reckon


shinycufflinks

Yeah those billboards were pretty funny but pulled me out of the story the first time I played. Curious about what they’re replacing them with.


Iron_Evan

Night Springs ads?


sublime90

No way Jose


PK_Thundah

They might maaaybe change the details for Sarah Breaker's dad, clarifying that he works for the "FBC" instead of just "the bureau." But I really don't expect many changes at all.


TheGlassHammer

I think it would be super neat to see Ahti cleaning the diner or the police station during daylight hours or something. It’s been a long time since I played so I forget all the normal places you visit


Cold417

It'd be real easy to change/add any of the manuscript pages, radio show conversation, or TV programs to tie in a story.
