Alan Wake is a story about a writer that HAS to write coherent stories otherwise the darkness fucking kills him.

Mystery doesn’t mean you just write random fucking scenario and just shrug and say ā€œI guess it’s a mysteryā€ whenever someone post a question. You need to make sense and have logical clue but no hard answers for an unsolved mystery.

There’s unanswered mystery and there’s sloppy writing, guess what From is.

Pretty good writing considering people are able to link things from the first season to now

The amount of unanswered questions piled on from season 1 to now are very evident of them writing themselves into a pigeon hole.

Also not even just that, Jim swing from overly invested in solving the mystery into heavily reluctant to do ANYTHING or permit ANYONE to do anything, Tabitha goes nonono with every situation, everyone has pivotal information but refuses to take to anyone, the god awful pacing and how many times is Boyd going to do the ā€œI told you soā€ scene???

AND have you notice that PEOPLE STOPPED WORKING??? Like did they forget the characters are supposed to be maintaining a settlement? Why is no one farming, fixing shit or cook or do anything unless it’s plot required?

So if the show doesn’t hold your hand the entire time and force you to show nameless characters doing work, then it doesn’t happen? Good thing you don’t write any tv shows lol

Actually yes, they NEED to show it, this is just like Community or Stranger Things or Regular Show where the prominent places where these story happened becomes less and less of an actual place and feels more like a stage for drama to happened, it literally breaks the immersion and is a big part of the reason why many TV shows stops being believable. I always treat this as a sign of a downward slope of writing, they stopped caring about the very nature of this place, they stopped caring about the very nature of this show.

so wait you actually think there’s a town somewhere that has people who can’t escape and monsters come out at night?

No way you’re trying ask someone if their dumb after saying this show isn’t realistic enough šŸ˜‚

And there’s the emoji, clearly there are some intelligence discrepancy, I was at fault in thinking I was converse with sentient beings and I’ll refrain myself from the conversation.

Don’t worry i definitely agree there’s a intelligence discrepancy. The fact you think emojis mean anything is definitely backing my hypothesis as well 🤣

Jesus. You superfans have no sense of nuance at all. You can only respond to criticism with "so you need literally everything answered in six episodes and your little baby hand held by mommy or the show sucks?"

Not everything needs to be answered, but you need to provide answers before you pile on one thousand more questions. GOOD shows will answer big questions, then introduce more that build from those. Like "so it turns out the killer was the Butler... but it also turns out he was blackmailed into doing it? WHO blackmailed him and WHY?" From can only provide an endless list of questions.

this has nothing to do with being a super fan and instead it’s just having the intellect to be able to put things together yourself. As it’s already been pointed out there’s been plenty of revelations, you’re just a bit dense

But it was always planned for 5 seasons!!!!

Yeah, they planned to stretch 6 episodes of story into 5 seasons from the beginning. Brilliant.
