You’re not missing much anyway. AW2 starts strong and then becomes an unbelievable slog halfway through. I can forgive boring gameplay if there’s an interesting story to tell but AW2 has neither.
Throw on top that they ditched Jesse as the main character in control 2 and they’ve killed nearly all of my interest in this franchise/universe
Well one could download the games for free… It’s not my style for modern PC games, but its not like you aren’t able to play. ;-) Also maybe this will be an option in the future when emulation is good enough.
That’s only the case for Alan Wake II. Control Resonant is self-published and available day one on Steam.
Not being able to play Alan Wake 2 makes me not want to play any more games in the series until I can, if ever.

I have no shortage of games to play without doing that
Me too. But its an option if you really want to play this specific game.
Is Alan Wake 2 officially part of the Control game series? I thought they just shared the same world.
I bet there are Easter eggs, but I haven’t seen anything indicating that you need to play AW before Resonance
There was a whole DLC in control tying them together so it seems like it with my current knowledge
Well that’s too bad then because I tried playing both AW games and they bored me to death.
