"Alan Wake 2 is great. 88% in PC Gamer great. Best Story 2023 great. It's Remedy taking all the lessons it's learnt across a long career and distilling them into something wonderful. And, apparently, not enough of us have bought it yet.

In the recently released Business Review for January-March 2024, Remedy CEO Tero Virtala wrote that—although it had sold 1.3 million copies at the start of February—the company had only recouped "a significant part of the marketing and development expenses" for Alan Wake 2. A significant part, but not all. Virtala pretty much reiterated that in a subsequent earnings call, where he also mentioned that Remedy had experienced an operating loss of €2.1 million in Q1 2024. Though it's worth mentioning the company did buy back Control in that time.

Which is a shame, as Alan Wake 2 was undoubtedly one of the best games of 2023, and certainly deserved a quicker turn to profitability than it's apparently gotten. Virtala doesn't seem too pessimistic about it, at least (then again, things probably have to get quite bad for the CEO to start screaming 'the end is nigh' in earnings calls), and notes that sales for the game have "continued with a high average price."

The game has yet to "generate royalty revenue," in contrast with other Remedy games like Control and Alan Wake Remastered, both of which have contributed to Remedy's overall royalties growing year-on-year. I wouldn't necessarily worry about that one too much, though: Alan Wake Remastered went through the exact same thing in Q1 of the year following its release."

"On the whole, Remedy seems pretty buoyant about its future. Virtala dedicates a hefty chunk both of the business review and earnings call to talking up the possibilities opened up by acquiring the rights to Control, which means the company can now "freely decide on the future of our two established franchises, Control and Alan Wake." Virtala says Remedy is currently exploring both self-publishing and partner publishing for future games in each series.

Virtala also provided status updates on the myriad projects Remedy has cooking. Condor—the multiplayer Control spin-off—has moved to full production; Control 2 is hitting the end of the proof-of-concept stage; the Max Payne remakes are expected to hit full production in Q2 of this year; and the free-to-play multiplayer project Kestrel is still in "concept stage."

Overall, things seem pretty good, even if more people need to pick up Alan Wake 2 before it becomes profitable. Remedy expects that its revenue will increase and operating profit will improve for 2024, and will get more specific about that "when the decision for the business model and the potential agreements for Control 2 and Condor have been made."

Oh, one bit of bad news: Sounds like it'll be a while (if ever) before Alan Wake 2 hits Steam. Asked if the game would come to Valve's platform during the earnings call, Virtala said "That's also a speculation that we cannot at the moment do. At the moment, Alan Wake 2 is available in Epic Games Store, and we hope that PC Gamers will find it there." Sorry for the jump scare, Steam devotees."

I would hardly consider that to make it an "anti-trans" game. You're not killing troons and cutting their artificial dicks off or anything like that, right? So anti-trans essentially means any game/organization/person that doesn't specifically endorse trannies?

except it literally has troon character design where you can make a female character with a dick or a male character with a vagina, and it does specifically endorse trannies.

And I think you're actually agreeing with my point - any game that doesn't specifically endorse trannies is anti-trans?

Firstly, that's not accurate. I'm not aware of any leftist transitive property concept that says if a transphobe has a business that sells Ford Focuses that Ford Focuses are now "anti-trans". Unless you have some evidence to indicate otherwise their argument was and still is that the Hogwarts game was made by a transphobe and by buying the game you give money to a transphobe, not that the game Hogwarts Legacy was "anti-trans". The implications should be clear to anybody who knows basic conversational English. Secondly, you're speaking with me, not "the left". Instead of engaging with whatever archetype of "the left" you have your head just engage with what I'm saying.

>arguably the macro picture ie real-world effect is more significant than whether or not there's an egregious asset or line of dialogue inside the game.
What aspect of anti-transness is "more important" an entirely different argument as to whether or not the game itself is anti-trans. The argument earlier in the thread was that Alan Wake didn't turn a profit because it was woke and that Hogwarts Legacy made a lot of money because it was anti-woke. Again, that doesn't make any sense. The only way it would make any sense if you just arbitrarily assumed that every person who bought the game and enjoyed bought it because J.K. Rowling was anti-trans and they wanted to support her anti-trans advocacy by buying the game. The narrative here is incoherent.

You're not engaging with what I'm saying. My argument is that the game isn't anti-trans because there's absolutely nothing in the game that communicates or expresses any kind of anti-trans themes or messages.

>then you haven't been paying attention. the left boycotted chic-fil-a to protest the ceo's personal politics. obviously no one claimed the chicken meat itself was homophobic. the business itself was labeled homophobic as a proxy for the ceo's politics
This is a terrible comparison. Let us use basic conversational english here, anon. When people say "CHIC FIL A IS RACIST" clearly, the implication is they're referring to the company. One does not absorb messages, themes or narratives from a chicken sandwich. It would be illogical to assume that's what they meant. When people say "THIS MOVIE OR GAME IS RACIST", clearly, the implication is they're referring to the movie or game. A game or movie contain stories and themes. A food product does not. If you can't make this basic distinction either you don't have a shred of good faith or you unironically are not familiar with the english language.

>okay. if you're going to continue arguing this point you need to define what makes a game "anti-trans".
I think if you weren't so reflexively contrarian you'd very easily understand the distinction I'm making. A thing being "anti-trans" and some of the people involved in producing and making a think being "anti-trans" are two entirely different arguments. You're trying to blend the two together into some confusing strawman of what "the left" thinks and it makes no sense. Additionally, you use "the left" as this catch all term and I have no clue who you're referring to.

you're being disingenuous. the game was boycotted for its cultural relevance as an anti-trans symbol. the specifics of the content of the game are irrelevant in this instance.

you're making my point for me. like in the case of hogwarts, the chicken sandwiches became symbolic of a cultural flashpoint. the contents don't actually matter as evident in the fact that calls for boycotts began before the contents of the game were even known.
>A thing being "anti-trans" and some of the people involved in producing and making a think being "anti-trans" are two entirely different arguments.

I'm not. I'm just accurately describing the criticism of the game using widely accepted uses of the english language. No native english speaker, when hearing the phrase "This game is anti-trans" assumes that you're referring to the fact that one of the people involved in the conceptualization of the game has anti-trans views.

>the game was boycotted for its cultural relevance as an anti-trans symbol.
Incorrect. Is was boycotted because the creator of the game, a known anti-trans advocate, would profit from its sale. You're trying to broaden and convolute your analysis into this nebulous cultural commentary of the argument because, definitionally, you know you're wrong.

>like in the case of hogwarts, the chicken sandwiches became symbolic of a cultural flashpoint.
Its still a terrible comparison. A game can be anti-trans. A food product cannot. Its two distinctly different arguments. A company who sells a thing and the thing itself are two different entities. Two different things. Two different lens of analysis. You're not engaging with what I'm saying. Hogwarts Legacy, the game, is not anti-trans. Nobody on "the left" made that argument and the criticism itself, in the english language, doesn't make logical sense.

>then why were there boycotts for hogwarts legacy if jk rowling wasn't even directly involved?
Because she's the creator of the IP and profits from sales of any Harry Potter related media.

>you're attempting to be overly reductive again.
I'm not. I'm being very clear and simple in my communication. You're trying to add this non-existent layer of complexity because, definitionally, your analysis is wrong and makes no sense.

Again, you're being reductive. The left literally argued that Chic-Fil-A was homophobic by proxy of its CEO's politicial beliefs. Obviously a food can't be homophobic. A pixel on a screen can't be anti-trans. What actually matters in either case is the cultural significance.
>Because she's the creator of the IP and profits from sales of any Harry Potter related media.
Exactly, because the contents of the product don't actually matter. Culture war disputes over games and other retarded shit are proxies for affecting the revenue of individual actors or ideological movements.

>Helldivers 2 is Antifa: The Game
Lmao. The game is getting flak because they're trying to suddenly make having a PSN account a requirement.

Leftists think Helldivers is problematic, and Antifa put on their corporate approved media literacy hat and took the side of the bugs.

The funniest thing about helldivers 2 is the entire superearth government is a caricature of democrats. Their number one ideal is "managed democracy" and as you read the dispatches from super earth they read like an MSNBC news caster

It was passed overwhelmingly by everyone during bush years and them extended in 2019 pushed nearly exclusively by democrats
>In November 2019, the House approved a three-month extension of the Patriot Act which would have expired on December 15, 2019. Democratic leadership included it as part of a bigger "must pass" spending bill which was approved by a vote of 231–192, mostly along party lines with Democrats voting in favor and Republicans voting against. Only ten Democrats voted against it

The funniest thing about people who are completely bought into a political ideology is that they suddenly start manifesting their political pet projects everywhere. Reason milk prices went up? Democrats. Reason Dominos stopped delivering to my neighborhood? Democrats. Oh, that game about a super authoritarian government that legally mandates its citizens to be unquestioningly patriotic under threat of imprisonment or death? Definitely Democrats. Its delusional.

You people are absolutely cognitively dissonant. Not only have you been doing the exact same thing in the democrat corruption threads, but you simultaneously somehow think that trump is unable to win any court cases and is an idiot, but yet someone has behind the scenes set up some shadow government of cronies everywhere that have successfully protected him from any and all consequences

Also, you obviously haven't played helldivers 2

a lot of shit is legit due to democrats. gas went up because brandon wouldn't give out drilling permits to shall companies, only to standard oil and because he raised the royalties on oil for the first time in a century. there are food deserts in black areas and targets in black areas have everything under glass/cage because dems don't put blacks in jail for shop lifting

Maybe it is just a shitty game? I don't know because I'm never going to play it, simply because I never played any of thr series and I don't have an interest.

Helldivers is starship troopers humor and no alternative viewpoints shown. If you can see the dystopia, you can't do anything about it.

Also Sony is forcing PC players to link a Sony account to play, which is causing the game to be review bombed.

>Maybe it is just a shitty game?
Honestly, the game look and feels great but its a little too cerebral. Its a LOT of story, a LOT of exposition and cutscenes and narrative building. Its more of an art piece than a game and at an incredibly long playtime there really isn't any replayability. Single player games struggle in today's market and unfortunately Alan Wake 2 kind of suffered from that lack of player attention. Long story short, the /pol/ schizo "people hate game cause black people" is based on absolutely nothing. Its just another one of their poorly constructed memes.

You kind of have to remember where we are. 95% of /news/ posters have had their brains completely captured by political brain worms. Your average gamer really doesn't give a shit. Helldivers is about big booms and guns going bang. The vast majority of people don't think or care about the underlying politics of their shooter games. Its just that this place and these people are obsessed with seeing and inserting politics into everything.

is always the same steps:

- There is a famous franchise(the ghostbusters, castlevania, mad max, star wars, etc.).

- The feminists, the social justice warriors and the lgbt take control of that franchise and fill it with their ideas.

- The fans abandon the franchise after seeing how the misandry of the feminists, the heterophobia of the lgbt and the forced diversity of the social justice warrios ruined it.

- The feminists, the lgbt and the social justice warriors blame the fans calling them "sexists, bigots, racists, homophobics, etc.

Its always the same situation in every movie, comic, cartoon or videogame. Get woke, go broke.

nah, its more the, story made for a specific type of audience thing
audience is
-black, male, and younge, it gives the target audience what it wants
-then the story, thanks to good luck, writing, and other factors also happens to be good enough to work with other groups, it gains ground and becomes popular with white women, white men, hispanic men and women, asian markets(lots of different groups in the "asian markets, same for african markets(Africa IS bigger than most other countries)
-after all this, it gets targeted by a very small, very specific politically untouchable group
-it gets completely remade to cater to said group, the remake flops for any other group because its too specifically pointed for said groups enjoyment alone
-said small group gets angry its not an instant cultural phenomenon
-rinse and repeat
