Alan Wake 2 is already a scary game. Having a guy who looks and sounds like Max Payne coming at you like an aggressive red panda probably isn’t necessary. Luckily, a new update for Alan Wake 2 fixes a T-posing Alex Casey while addressing progression-halting bugs.
To be fair, the latter is arguably far more terrifying. Most should agree that a bug stopping your story progress in a game is both scary and frustrating. In fact, it actually happened to me yesterday in Alan Wake 2. The rides at the Espresso Express were clipped into the wooden platform, and the capsule that was supposed to move out of the way wasn’t. And I didn’t feel like pushing a wheelbarrow around. Luckily, things should be sorted out after today.
Alan Wake 2 update addresses Espresso Express and other bugs
The update brings a lot of other fixes to issues that have plagued Alan Wake 2 players. For one, the game’s first boss battle has been rebalanced in the players’ favor. The HDR toggle in the menu now does what it’s supposed to do, and it shouldn’t rain inside from here on. Of course, my favorite in the list: “Fixed instances of Alex Casey t-posing menacingly.” I just love how that’s written. Another issue involved being unable to speak with Casey after the autopsy section, but you should be able to now.
The update also addresses some mission-specific issues. A button-mashing segment in the Subway no longer requires as much mashing. The Room 665 Echo has once more been tweaked, and will respawn if players fail to “watch the video to the very end.”
Developer Remedy Entertainment has been quick on updating the game since its launch. The last patch is only a few days old, and it follows a previous update that included 200 fixes. Fixing games is a laborious process. I doubt we’ve seen the end of them for Alan Wake 2, but hopefully, there are fewer progression-blocking bugs left after today.
