- Join me as I explain what happened in Controls AWE expansion.
With Alan wake 2 receiving best narrative and art direction awards at the game awards there's no better time to catch up if you haven't played Alan Wake 2.
This video took me way to long to complete due to a pretty severe chest infection, so please like, subscribe and comment

Alan’s typrewriter is not an object of power. It’s Cauldron Lake that turns fiction into reality, not the typewriter.
I agree that it is the lake that gives the power, but the typewriter is a conduit for that power. I'm fairly certain that the FBC refer to the typewriter as an object of power also.
either way thanks for commenting, I really do enjoy reading and replying to them. have a good Christmas.
The typewriter, if anything is an altered item, its definitely not an oop
@@connorm997 you could very well be right, I'm far from being the arbiter of remedy knowledge. I was thinking that it was more like the service weapon in control, taking different forms for different people. like if Tor and Odin went into the lake it wouldn't be a typewriter but might be a guitar or microphone.
the clicker is theorized by FBC to be a OoP
@@littleinksheep9318 yeah, I'd say the clicker is definitely an Oop. It is mentioned to be an Oop somewhere else but I don't want to spoil where.
Thanks for commenting and have a happy New year.
I'm partway through AW2 right now, but it's been so long since I played this DLC that I couldn't remember the plot. This video has been really helpful, thanks.
Glad you found the video useful and I hope you enjoy Alan wake 2, I absolutely loved it. Welcome to the family.
When I first started playing Control, I didn't even realise Alan Wake was part of the story. I had played Alan Wake back in 2015, I think. While in Control, I stumbled upon a few redacted documents mentioning Alan. I thought, Oh, that's a nice easter egg. I found some more along the way and started thinking maybe there was more to it than just an easter egg. Funny enough, I played the Foundation DLC first. I had no idea which one should be first; I didn't even realise it was DLC, to be honest :D. After finishing with that, I started AWE and instantly seeing Alan, I was like, holy biscuits, he is actually in the game intergrated so well. I guess this was to connect both games and promote Alan Wake 2 like a prologue. Now I fell into the rabbit hole of story bits, secrects, etc.
Great video by the way, I can see a lot of work went into it enjoyed my time.
Good luck :)
Thank you, I'm really glad that you enjoyed the video. I love the remedy shared universe stuff, it's amazing how well they've linked their games.
I completeted Quantum break 4 times , wonder if at some point is it going to get mentioned in some of their new games. It had a lot of real life scenes like a movie, was awesome seeing Courtney Hope, take the lead in control she had a great role in Quantum break. Not sure about Max Payne how would it fall in this Universe .@@dadquest1982
Thank you For this Great Video :)😁
@@POTATO-jz5bm thanks for watching it and leaving a nice comment I really appreciate it. Welcome to the family.
Your channel might be underrated
Thanks so much for saying so, welcome to the family.
Altered World Event... Alan Wake Experience...
Here's something that you missed though: Alan Wake can't create anything out of nothing, not without the clicker. Alan said that he got his ideas from his dreams, thanks to the second game we now know he can see visions of the future, which is how he got to create the Alex Casey series of books. Anything that happened in Control would've happened either way with or without Alan writing the events, because the characters he creates are actually real people (like Alex Casey), for example, there are pages about a rejected script for Night Springs that detail the events of the main game leading to the Hiss infecting the entire Bureau, which maybe got from a vision. Alan wouldn't be someone to create a new powerful entity unrelated to the Dark Presence to escape, Jesse wouldn't be able to save him inside the Oldest House either.
I agree that he didn't create the hiss and is unable to create anything without the clicker. I do however believe that he shaped the events of control and how the hiss act/speak, kind of like he's moving pieces on a chess board.
Thanks for commenting I really appreciate all the feedback and theories people have. I hope you have a great new year.
Thank you for making this video, even so you where not feeling that well. I been looking for a Control DLC explain video for a while now and could not find a good one, until now!!! thank you again!!!!
Really underrated, don't know how this doesn't have that many views
Thanks so much.
That was superb story telling. Well done mate I enjoyed that.
Thank you, that's such a nice comment. Have a fantastic new year.
Another top video! I need to get Alan wake 2 played! Thanks for your content it brings me joy :)
Glad you enjoyed it mate. You should definitely get started on Alan wake 2, it's a phenomenal experience.
Thanks for the work. Really like how each shot goes hand in hand with what you were speaking about.
Thanks for the comment, I love getting them. I'm glad you enjoyed my editing style, it's pretty time consuming so it really does mean a lot when I get nice comments.
Have a fantastic new year.
My dude, sorry to hear about your troubles recording this,but you still made such a good video, very enjoyable,keep doing what you do my fellow friend and merry Christmas
thanks so much for your kind comment. I hope you have a fantastic Christmas and new year.
Just what I was looking for after having finished Alan Wake 2 and needing a refresh on the AWE DLC.
Thanks for commenting. I'm glad found my video useful.
if you haven't already, please subscribe. Welcome to the family.
This was awesome! Great job. I love Control and Alan Wake so this was a match made in heaven!
thanks mate. I'm right there with you, both Alan Wake and control are fantastic games. Hopefully I'll be able to make a video on the night springs DLC that just came out, but first I've got to finish my video on an older game that I'm making so keep your eyes peeled for that. Welcome to the family.
I just saw your Silent Hill 2 one too and that one was epic. I loved Silent Hill 2. It was my first PS2 game and I was definitely too young for it and to get the themes of it. But me and my younger brother would take notes and rack our brains over the puzzles.
@@brandonrodriguez353 it was the same with me but I was the younger brother. I miss those days, playing games with my brother and getting scared out of my mind lol. Keep an eye out for my next vid if you're into bizarre horror games, kuon for the PS2 definitely hits that spot.
Thank you for bringing me up to speed! Cool video dude.
you're more than welcome, thanks for the nice comment.
Just found this channel great video, love the intro. You did a great job recapping the events. I would love to see some videos of your theories on the lore. I’m such a fan of horror games seems like I’ll be binging your catalog of videos.
I'm so happy you like the video. I'll be planning another one soon once things calm down from Christmas and New year's. I'm right with you on horror games, it's always been my favourite genre along with rpg's
Man real good job with the whole vid and the way you presented it🔥🔥you definitely have the best vid on this dlc and thank you for taking the time bro. Now i can run up some alan wake 2
Thanks so much for the lovely comment, I really appreciate it. Enjoy Alan Wake 2, it's an absolutely crazy experience and very trippy.
Nice video and great editing!
Thank you so much. I'm glad you enjoyed it. Merry Christmas and a happy New year.
Bro great work❤ thx for this video, im finishing alan wake 2 and ready to replay control
Thanks dude, glad you enjoyed it. Enjoy the rest of Alan Wake 2, what a great experience that game is. Welcome to the family.
great video thanks!
great vid i love analysis of documents im too lazy to read myself 😂
Glad you enjoyed it. Happy new year
I'm really glad I watched this and didn't actually buy Control because its the absolute epitome of what I hate about games. Rinse and repeat. Boss keeps getting away only to return. So, thank you for this video. Informative and educational around the story!
cool paraphrasing thanx for the work you put into it
Thanks mate, keep watching and I'll keep trying. Welcome to the family.
Thank you for this beautifull summary.
No, Thank you for that very kind comment.
Great vid man thabks
Thanks for watching and especially for commenting. Have a great day.
This is like a prequel to Alan Wake 2. You can even see an image of the cult of the Tree at the end.
Yeah and the flash of the bound arm is probably nightingale's too, it's great to see how long they've been working on the Alan wake 2 story.
Thanks for commenting.
For the algorithm 🖤
Thanks for the help. I hope you had a great Christmas and are gearing up for a happy New year.
I played this and still dont know what happened
You probably hear this often, but your voice reminds me of Richard Ayoade.
Anyway, great and informative video!
I'm not going to lie, that's the first time anyone has said that to me. I'll take that as a great compliment as the man has a great voice and is very talented.
Thanks for the comment have a great new year.
About to do final battle with Dr. Hartman.
Im scared 😅
This is rad though. The shared universe of Alan Wake + Control is super sick. Cheers~
Watch out for his grab, it's a killer. Thanks for watching and commenting. Welcome to the family.
Great work dude! I wonder what the future holds for Alan Wake and if we'll ever get an Official Alan / Control / Payne crossover game?
Thanks mate. The future is still unclear for Alan for what I can make out. Not sure we'll ever get a full crossover, but we can live in hope.
Well your wishes have been answered. Have you played Alan wake 2 yet?
@@janetmontalvo6944 yeah I've played through once and absolutely loved it, what a fantastic experience it was. Hopefully I'll find time to do new game+ soon to see the extra ending.
@@dadquest1982 such an awesome game probably the only one I’ve 100%ted in years.
@@janetmontalvo6944 that's amazing I can't imagine finding the time with work, videos and 2 young children. To be honest I'm pretty jealous because I loved the game so much.
Isn't the object of power in Alan wake 1, the "clicker"?
I don't think alan created hiss. I think his talking about saga at that part not jessy. Because after that he says return. And I think the lake and the oldest house are related somehow, that's why we see the signal even in lockdown. Or something scaped and broke the lock down.
You could be right about Saga and I'm certainly not a font of knowledge on the games. but personally I think that as he wrote the hiss incantation and spoke about it in the same hotline call as talking about the government agency he was talking about Jessie. But I do agree that he didn't invent the hiss, he just shaped the events leading to their invasion of the oldest house.
Either way it's super interesting hearing everyone else's theories and takes of the story. Thanks for commenting and have a great new year.
wait, so Alan is responsible for what happens in control? pls no spoilers im about to play Alan Wake 2
@@joaquinrejala1315 Don't worry, I wouldn't spoil it for you, Alan Wake 2 is a great experience. As for whether he is responsible for control or not, the short answer is maybe? Lol. He definitely had a hand in shaping the events, but I'm not sure if he just twisted events that were already going to happen.
@@joaquinrejala1315 also thanks for commenting and welcome to the family.
Spoiler Alert for Control 3 and Alan Wake 5
Alan Wake's typewriter will end at the Panopticon prison, and everyone will live happily after except for Jesse because she is surrounded with dumb men. End of Story.
For god sake, I spent 15 hours playing the game, and 100 hours watching analytical videos and fan theories 😂😂😂
I did not dare to play Alan Wake 2 yet, because I know it needs a crystal clear mind to focus and absorb what Sam Lake brought this time, therefore I am waiting the next fight with my wife, she usually ignores me for 3 days (hopefully 4), which I believe is an enough time to delve myself in the game's atmosphere.
Thanks for the AWesome video mate.
Yep, Sam lake and the creative writing team at remedy are on another level with the intertwining storylines and lore. Definitely go into Alan wake 2 with the only thought being to enjoy it, now that new game plus aka the final draft is out it is designed to be played twice. So just enjoy it the first time and try to understand it the second haha.
Thanks for the nice comments, I really appreciate it. Have a great new year
@@dadquest1982 I would like to praise your way of presenting the video. I wish you and your channel the best deeply. From now on, I am a regular subscriber to your channel.
I have loved Remedy games since Max Payne 1 came out, but my problem with them is their exaggerated depth and the creation of a highly complex, intertwined world based primarily on unproven ideas and theories, and thus conflicts and weaknesses gradually begin to appear in the plot that may lead to the idea of the game being illogical and hard to swallow.
I mention... For example, there are so many inconsistencies in the story of Quantum Break that the idea behind the game has become incomprehensible, and this applies to all of their games. For example in Control, as we know, Trench had been planning for years to bring the Hiss to our world because he became infected, so it is incomprehensible why he or his conscious was helping Jesse at the beginning of the game via the Hotline, and why he taught her how to purge the control points of the Hiss, in a contrary to his main goal.
Not to be biased, I enjoy Remedy games without exaggerating in the fault-hunting, so I am eager to play Alan Wake 2 and therefore it was necessary to replay the AW1 in addition to Control and its expansions.
Once again, thank you for this beautiful video, and I wish you a happy year, from a dad to a dad :)
@@mustafahabra2682 thanks so much for the nice comments, us dads have got to stick together.
I can't disagree with the convoluted nature of some of the story telling from remedy, but for me that's part of what makes them what they are. I can't speak on quantum break because I never got more than about an hour into it, but I do know that they weren't in full creative control with that because of being owned at Microsoft at the time and that being paired with an external company to make the TV sections probably made it difficult to be cohesive.
@@dadquest1982
I cannot agree with you more, we do like Remedy as it is.
About Quantum Break, I strongly recommend you to play it, I will give you the same tip you gave me, to play it twice. I agree there were many factors made it not the best selling game, but lack of creativity is not one of them, this game has its own quality and atmosphere, and despite the TV sections lack the spirit of the game, but the end product is not bad, it is easy to be involved with the characters and be thrilled with each new event.
You certainly know that the actress who played Jesse in Control played the role of Beth in Quantum Break. Perhaps this is just my opinion, but the character of Beth was a positive, active and likable character for me and it made me want a second part of the game to find out what happened to her, while she was... Jesse's character is devoid of anything that distinguishes her or anything that makes me relate to her as a heroine with good motives. which makes me ask myself: Do I really want to see Jesse in a second game?
I think that Remedy wanted to focus more on presenting a strong female character in Control, regardless of whether she was an influential character or not, and the result was in my opinion, a cold provocative, and devoid of feelings character. Unfortunately not everyone can successfully create a combination similar to Lara Croft.
Sorry for the long debate, let us both chill and listen to Dynamite covered by Dr. Darling (Dont hate me but I believe he is the best character in Control by all means :)
@@mustafahabra2682 I'll definitely get around to playing quantum break at some point, I'm sure I'll enjoy it even if it's a bit hard to follow.
P.s. Casper darling is definitely the best character in control
I loved Control and the universe, except the stories Alan Wake writes, and his person too.
I had my share of primadonnas like him, and recently discovered the base of his character is Stephen King, a long time famous horror-writer whose novels I find really boring. :)
Thanks for commenting. I agree and I think Alan isn't supposed to be liked, he's clearly the stereotypical self absorbed alcoholic writer that we've all heard of. But in turn I personally think that adds a lot to the story because the one good thing he did got him stuck in an inascapable nightmare created by himself.
Either way have a fantastic new year.
Why say this is going to cover the AWE dlc when you just start from the beginning of base game Control? Shouldn’t this be “Everything that happened in Control besides The Foundation DLC?”
I was just covering the basics of the start of control, I barely touched that story. I was just trying to add a bit of clarity for people who were just interested in Alan wake so they didn't get lost.
Thanks for the comment have a great new year.
