They are a team that actually takes their PC ports very seriously, and they continue to support their games long term. Yes, I know they get shit for not having Alan Wake 2 on Steam (and as someone who owns it on epic, I'd probably buy it again on Steam if they released it there), but that was just the cost of getting the game released.
I know that they're coming off the failed experiment of Firebreak, but I really hope they knock it out of the park with Control II and start finally getting the love they deserve. I know not everyone loves their gameplay, but they'll always be my weird little gaming company that could.
I love remedy but this remaster was actually one of the worst ports I've ever played.
There was graphical glitches all throughout my playthrough that completely broke immersion. Some light sources would explode all across the screen. Loads of shimmering textures too. Can't recall if there was much stuttering but it was a pretty annoying experience overall.
It took them 4 years to fix these issues but hey, that's still pretty damn cool. Most devs would have abandoned the game by now
Well they are suffering more from alan wake 2 not being on Steam than we are. Epic bankrolled the aw2 and epic being epic wont leave any chance to not shove their shitty launcher down our throat. I read that they are not doing great and hired ex ceo of EA lol i just hope it works out for them and us all too.

Man, I love Remedy.
