Disregard that part, apparently there's a lot of misinformation out
there.

Did you read that on Fox News? :P
Thus the lack of give-a-fuckness that has accumulated over the years
I liked the first two Alan Wake games.. completed them both, and found
the overall duration to be about right for a single player game.

Not sure if I should look forward to this one or not.. When I look at
videos of the original Alan Wake vs. Alan Wake Remastered, the
remastered version looks a little too bright/shiny/clean, like some of
the gloomy atmosphere was drained from the original. I'm not sure
that "features" such as more detailed character faces really adds
anything to the game.
Given all the disppointing releases in recent years, I don't want to
assume this release will be worth playing, because doing so always
seems to jinx the actual outcome. I think it may be best if I just
forget about it as a potential purchase, and only give it my attention
if glowing reviews throw themselves at me.

I stopped caring about release dates long ago for two reasons. First,
I already own so many unplayed games, I really just don't care when
yet another one is coming out for the most part. Second reason is
because those release dates are going to be pushed back anyway.

Ditto and ditto, with the addendum that I don't buy day-one games
anymore anyway. The game might be coming out in October, but I
probably won't play it until two years down the line, when it finally
shows up on sale.
Buying games on release is a sucker's deal. Especially now, you're
paying full price for a beta product that won't work well until six
months of patches; it's not worth the hassle.
It well captured the feel of being in a Stephen King
novel, with entertaining characters and situations.
The semi-sequel, "American Nightmare" was less entertaining, being a
bit too repetitive, but the over-the-top acting of Sam Lake as "Mr.
Scratch" more than made up for it.

As for release platforms, this is not something I care about either.
But that is just because I like western style RPGs and strategy games
most of all, and those tend to be released on the PC, so I never even
have to think about it or check to make sure.

This concerns me because Alan Wake 2 is being released in a very
different political climate than the first game was. And I'm
wondering if what's really going to emerge is Alan Woke,
