A bit disappointed we're not playing as Jesse again, hopefully we at least get some Jesse playable expansions after release.
It seems Remedy doesn't want us really committed to anyone one character in their stories. Doesn't really matter to me I'm here for whatever they put out. I haven't been disappointed by them yet. I'll pretend FBC never existed.
It is cool that we're basically getting the melee weapon version of the FBC director's transforming gun.
I think the idea is really cool but Remedy has never done an action game like this so I wont lie I'm a bit worried. I enjoyed the shooting in Control. It wasn't the best but good enough with all the powers mixed in as well. Reminded me of Max Payne honestly.
Just finished the first one, keen for this.
I haven't played Control but... this looks unexpected.
I have recently played Control, and... this looks unexpected. There's definitely some familiar elements though.
Like Zkuq said, we're just as caught off-guard as you are. lol
Kudos to Remedy for that.
looks good, should be fun.
