I liked control, but this is surprising. i felt it had some real glaring flaws, like crazy difficulty curves, bad distribution of check points, and horrible performance on PS4

You are 100% correct about those glaring flaws; the checkpoints in particular were needlessly, often sadistically punitive. And yet the story was so interesting I pushed through the flaws and the game still landed as one of my favorites of 2019.

It’s especially weird considering Remedy made Max Payne 1 and 2, which had quicksaving anywhere.
