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.

Control is awesome, amazing world building and lore packed inside a really tight third person shooter. There are some Alan Wake references in the lore, but for the most part you can play Control first I think. However, I definitely advise to hold off on playing the AWE DLC until after Alan Wake 1.
