Yeah, sure, the FBC buddy... DING DING call agent Mulder, not even the X-files could have concieved of as ridiculous a conspiracy theory as some of you people do about the FBC LMAO. They're not the illuminati, just some overpaid desk jockeys.
I'm one of those firm believers that the government knows something we don't about Wake's disappearance. When he went missing my heart broke, I was one of his biggest fans 😭 my goal this year is to make a pilgrimage to Bright Falls and pay my respects to him by the lake. I don't care if it's been fenced off, I have bolt cutters!
I'm from Watery, the town next to where Alan disappeared! There's a really weird girl that works in the diner that to this day insists that Alan's still around and talks to her. It's really unnerving, but the coffee's great so I always stop by when I can.
not to mention that th area he went missing is now fenced off by the feds... Just something to think about, think there might be more to this than him just drowning
I’d say Wakes books certainly “blew” something but it wasn’t “me away” if you catch my meaning. Dude is a poor man’s Dean Koontz, and Koontz is a poor man’s Steven King. It’s all so trite and predictable with little serious literary merit.
Jeez, Alan Wake. Haven't thought about that guy in years, but I remember being really fascinated by his disappearance. I really liked the Alex Casey books, but yeah, they haven't aged well. Something really interesting you didn't bring up in the video, but I think you should have: those manuscript pages in The Alan Wake Files? There's a couple more pages floating around the internet. And if you look at all the pages we have, then do a little research, it turns out they seem to be talking about actual missing person cases that happened around the place he disappeared from. There were also rumors of him leading a murder cult in New York, just like the one in the first Alex Casey book. Really disturbing.
I believe that I met him some time ago, there’s just something about him. I have had a hard time keeping track of time lately. Dr. Casper Darling Head of Research
Did not expect such a video today xD I love the take on Alan Wake as a real-life person ... if this would really happen, his name would surely pop up on those unsolved mystery iceberg explained videos lol Definitely makes you wonder how his disappearance would be perceived by in-universe fans, and how much the FBC would try to prevent from leaking to the public. Great work, Matt! :)
I watched this video a few times and I really like how meta turns out to be. How fiction leaks into reality in a very interesting way. Up to a point where I even doubt myself of the existance of Alan... A clear example of a very well developed and written character that could be among us if not for the supernatural context he is involved with. GREAT VIDEO, I must say! Love the content. Keep it up! there is more Wake to come I hope.
What happened to Alice was such a tragedy. There was more art and creativity in just a single one of her photos than ANYTHING Wake ever achieved with those Max Casey novels, or whatever they were called. Even airport book stores were embarrassed to carry them. Wake disappearing was probably the best thing to happen to her ... and the worst. A real tragedy.
Don’t rag on Wake like that. Sure, he wasn’t a milestone in literature, but most people aren’t, and don’t need to be to write good books. Besides, their love was genuine and nobody should love a loved one in such a dark place.
@@Pirategamer1138 Yeah, well, all I know is, I went to an Alan Wake book signing for The Fall of Max Casey or whatever it was (the worst one), and he was off his face, drunk. Lucky he didn't punch any photographers while he was there!
@UberNoodle oh yeah I'm one remembering things differently I was actually confused because my friend's colleague name is Alex casey who works for the fbi he's about to go to bright falls to investigate some murders
Inspirational stuff! Now that you have done it, it seems obvious this is the way to do any Remedy Universe analysis; what with their many/multiple worlds overlaid on top of, echoing aspects of, and inspiring each other. Wake could be out there in another world where King and he are contemporaries for real! And another Matt made this video not knowing it would be considered goofy and meta in some other universe where Alan Wake is just a game! We are only too naive not to consider it 😉 (seriously though I wish you held off on breaking character, it was a joy to watch and the video was good enough that you could just have left it as is, without ever acknowledging anyone in our reality 😂)
Great video! If i may i wanted to share a realisation of mine, the QR codes from Alan Wake Remastered talk about Nightingale at the beginning of the second game!
Not that I'm glad he decided to drop off the face of the earth, but I honestly never understood the appeal of his books. Bit overrated, if you ask me. Shame about his wife, though.
I don't know if I really agree with your views on Barry Wheeler. He's a bit of a problematic figure, that goes without a doubt - but Tor and Odin were rockers. No manager has ever been able to keep perfect control of their talent. And like, the thing with the nursing center? The fact of the matter is that Barry Wheeler paid for a service and should not have needed to stick around to ensure it was done - the contractors are at fault for the issues with Valhalla Nursing Centre's renovations. Wheeler IS at fault for not checking in on things and having further repairs done, however. Barry Wheeler kinda sucks, we've all heard his egotistical remarks in interviews, but I don't think he's the horrible mismanager that you've implied him to be. Just another talent manager with a head too big for his actions.
I only read the sudden stop, a copy I borrowed from a friend. I found alan wake to be pretentious in his prose with too many pop culture references. I honestly don't know what all the fuss is about.

This is clearly FBC propaganda. Hidden Machine is a fed confirmed.

Praying someone stumbles across this and thinks it’s real 😭
I just realized that Matt is the real life Clay Steward
I’ll take it

RUDE 😾

Man, I remember when Alan wake published his first book, blew me away!
Can’t believe he vanished after the sudden stop. Kinda ironic
Truly

Need to visit Bright Falls, as I want to go there to see such beautiful place.

Hopefully no hack tries to make video games from his life story
Lmao
Solid watch ! I’m not sure that everything here is accurate but I enjoyed it nontheless 💖
✨ It’s the thought that counts ! ✨
Thank you Rose!
@@HiddenMachineGaming You’re welcome ! ☺️
I really like your writing ✍️ ✨
Oh man this is so amazing awesome job!
Thank you!
Man this was a delight and I don't even listen to True crime. This was a lot of fun to see an in universe interpretation
This a really cool idea for a video. Better watch over your shoulder for any FBC agents tho haha
Man.. I heard he was a great writer.. A little heavy on the metaphors maybe.. But yeah.
Shame I haven't seen him around.
I really like the books that Alan wrote, i hope that one day he will come back like a "Alan Wake RETURN"
I know he will 💖
I hope things like this eventually create some kind of Alan Wake egregor/tulpa.
In 2023 there were some reportings of Alan Wake sightnings somewhere in the Washington state again. How would you take it?
Fall???? When and where?
This so good alright I'm going to go rewatch the Alan wake videos and finish Max Payne 2
The barcode at 9:45 is Hitman's barcode
Wow! Great catch!
Oooh this is a new level of meta 😂 I love it!
I love how you used the Address Unknown music in the background - such a classic, groundbreaking TV series!
2:05 I i'm glad I wasn't sipping any coffee
This is far too good

I think y'all might be remembering things differently as I think wake's main character wasn't max casey it was alex casey
@@SushainSharma-gn4go Nah, it wasn't that either. I know, it was Alex Payne!
@UberNoodle oh yeah I'm one remembering things differently I was actually confused because my friend's colleague name is Alex casey who works for the fbi he's about to go to bright falls to investigate some murders
21:02 Love it!

I love this video. The title is EVASIVE... it's like: ''It's not a Loop, it's a Spiral'' 😆
Great video! If i may i wanted to share a realisation of mine, the QR codes from Alan Wake Remastered talk about Nightingale at the beginning of the second game!
Thank you! And yes! It was so cool that they gave us that preview of the story so far ahead of time!
This was great I love it, I hope you do more
Thanks! Working on something for the future
ALAN WAKE
Okay but is it over ????

Not that I'm glad he decided to drop off the face of the earth, but I honestly never understood the appeal of his books. Bit overrated, if you ask me. Shame about his wife, though.
Would you be interested of doing more of these type of videos like from remedyverse?
Maybe! Role playing is fun, but the average person in the RCU would have such a hard time learning about anything above the surface
@@HiddenMachineGaming true lol
Second rate black sabbath?! Take that back they're the OLD GODS THEY SLAYYY
pshhhh
Please tell me the Old Gods using AI is part of the bit. The Herald of Darkness shield is already bad enough. 😭
It’s really in the liner notes of the LP, but it is a bit
Are these books actually real?
Are they?..
How dare u
