I just came across this yesterday, and I must say I am impressed! You got a new subscriber, now to check out your previous works. Control is one of my top five of all time, a place moved only by the sequel eventually, so this was great entry into your work.
Thank you, my friend. This video just started getting some random traction- so I’m glad that it is finding people that can enjoy it. Control is an all time favorite of mine too. Great taste 👍🏼
Good to see another one of your great videos. I wanted to love Control. I always support games with female protagonists who aren't politicized (something that is becoming increasingly rare). My problem is I'm a gamer who is terrible at challenging action games. I finished Control but I was unable to complete one very difficult (for me) side quest even with settings on super easy. I don't remember the name but it was hard to have no hope to succeed. Man, the story was good, though. Congrats on 1K+!!!
I appreciate it. Control is such a rad game. But I could definitely see it being pretty rough for people who aren’t super comfortable with action games. Jesse is super fragile at times. I know they had some modifiers on the ultimate edition to make the game a little more accessible, but I’m not sure if that would fix what you were dealing with. Thank you for watching as always! 🙏🏼 Still think it’s crazy about the 1K thing. Don’t know how that happened.
Yeah the modifiers in the current version of Control (Ultimate edition) allow you to customize the experience really well. If I'm not mistaken you can even make yourself invulnerable and the damage modifiers are also useful. For example I find the late game enemies to be too bullet spongy so I increased the dealt damage modifier.

@@digitalhauntology Continue dropping long form video essays such as these. Trust me, there may not be too large an audience for this kind of material but the audience that does exist will be very dedicated. Wish you the absolute best!
What I want to know is... What's up with that one guy at the bus stop in the intro of the game that keeps looking back at Jesse after she enters the Oldest House, should she stand still for a bit?
@digitalhauntology Very well could be. Glad I found your vid/channel - Control is one of my favorite all-time video games - right up there with BioShock and Bloodborne.
@@TheHi-NoteFunClub-BeatsByMike I’m glad you enjoyed the video. Control is one of my all times as well. I have a project on this channel where I rank every game I’ve covered. Spoiler- Control is currently in the number one spot. So I’m right there with you
I'm not a horror game guy so I never played Alan Wake, had no idea Control was connected to it, never played Control but almost did. Kinda glad I didn't because this doesn't look like a game I'd enjoy.
Yeah it’s a little polarizing for sure. I love the game, easily in my top 10 of all time I think. But it speaks directly to a lot of stuff that I look for in games. And yeah, the connective universe is getting more and more wild with each release. Thanks for watching, my friend 🙏🏼
In the works, my friend. I recently got married so the videos slowed down a bit during that process, but I’ve got quite a few lined up now that I’m on the other side. Stay tuned!

Wow, thank you my friend.
Such kind words.
Still figuring things out.
Glad you are enjoying the channel.

We will see.
I have a few in the chamber at the moment.
Hard to know which ones are going to do well.
Thank you for the encouragement.
@@digitalhauntology I'd suggest covering Project IGI. It's not as well known in the US but it has a massive following in South Asia.
Looking into it.
Never had heard of it before.
Looks pretty interesting, thanks for letting me know.
LETS GOOOO!!
Took a while to get this one out, my bad
@@digitalhauntology just building anticipation man 🤘
What I want to know is... What's up with that one guy at the bus stop in the intro of the game that keeps looking back at Jesse after she enters the Oldest House, should she stand still for a bit?
Maybe he knows what’s up with the place, haha
Thanks for watching!

great video, great series! danielewski is a polish name, so the W is pronounced with a V sound, almost an F. 🫣
Thanks for watching!
And oops, next time I’ll get it right.
no worries, i pronounced it with a W sound for years, myself. keep up the great work! any plans on a lake house vid?
In the works, my friend.
