I replay this game annually on my Steam deck. One of my Top 3 games of All time. The gameplay was definitely one of my favorite parts along with the story. But I can see why it wouldn’t be for everyone with how unusual it is sometimes. Have you played the second one? It goes much closer too a traditional survival horror game then the first with gameplay

I didn’t play it when it came out so it’s not carried by nostalgia (like the old Resident Evil games which have also aged badly but I still do enjoy). Will give the second one a go someday. If it’s anything like the RE remakes I’ll probably enjoy it.

I will say that I’ve only played the RE2 remake, but the entire time I was going through Alan Wake II the gameplay very reminiscent of that (at least imo)
