A gaming community free from the hype and oversaturation of current releases, catering to gamers who wait at least 12 months after release to play a game. Whether it's price, waiting for bugs/issues to be patched, DLC to be released, don't meet the system requirements, or just haven't had the time to keep up with the latest releases.

Alan Wake 2 is one of my favourite games of all time, and if you like the story it's definitely worth considering playing. Yes, it is a bit more of a horror game, but it's phenomenal. I recommend watching a recap of Control and its AWE DLC, as they directly tie into the plot of Alan Wake 2. Or just play them, Control is also a great game.

If you really truly can't stomach horror games, both Welonz and Mapocolops have great AW2 playthroughs.

Control is also a great game.

Second this. The Ashtray Maze is still one of the coolest levels in a game for me.
