IMO Alan Wake 2 could have performed much better if it wasn’t an Epic exclusive, but from what I heard, because of that deal, Remedy got their development cost back before the game officially broke even.
Don’t know what to think of Firebreak, because it’s a genre i don’t like (coop) and that doesn’t go well with Remedys biggest strength, the storytelling. Until recently i didn’t even know the game existed.
It helps, when you realize the first one was meant to be played in isometric view, similar to diablo. the 3rd person view feels like an afterthought.
