that woman was previously depicted as an ethnic white person, but I guess the Blackrock boogeyman conspiracy theory told them to frick off unless they added a black person as one of the main characters
>I thought you can play as Sam Lake. What happened to that?
There are 2 storylines, 1 starring Alan Wake, the other black woman and Alan Lake. You can switch between storylines at the end of a chapter or finish 1 line entirely.
It seems extremely likely A Wake is writing the story of A Lake, possibly Lake will be endowed with the powers of Max Payne.
Black women are way nobler than any of you stupid evil racists here believe. They have great wisdom and understanding. Many things in our world would instantly get better with black women at the helm.
It's like they're intentionally shoving the absolute worst, most disliked type of person on the planet into everything. I worked as a delivery driver for a few years, and I don't care how "progressive" someone was going into that job, they all came out the other end at least a little bit racist.
One of the GMs I worked for was a Pakistani kid who wouldn't even look at applications with black names, because he knew what a pain in the ass they were.
Even when they’re white washed they tend to be super entitled and lazy as frick, that or they need tons of recognition for how hard they work. There’s just this annoying pompousness to them. Their culture suffers so badly from main character syndrome it’s insane, I don’t know why they’re all like that, but social media has caused it to bleed into everyone now.

Looks like Alan Wake. Exactly like it was 10 years ago.
Glad Sami Lahti is still getting work. Hope they don't just kill his character off for "horror lulz".
they've already stated the game is divided into 2 equal parts

looks cool, your point?
alan gayke 2
pirated + modded day 1
>Alan Wake
>Gets Woke
I don't get, what are you gays mad about this time?
there is a woman in the game that is also happens to be black, it's enough for chuds to seethe and claim the game 'woke'

Looks sick I should play the other ones
When does it comes out on steam?
6 or 12 months after it launches on EGS
It's being published by Epic, though.
Oh frick, I didn't realize it was an EGS exclusive.
More like ESG exclusive.
I thought you can play as Sam Lake. What happened to that?
you play him half the game
You can. It has three playable characters (The glowie woman, Alex Casey (Sam Lake) and Alan/Mr Scratch), but don't tell Ganker that
Sauce on Alex Casey being playable? I'm pretty sure its just black cop and some Alan
He's not

>they sat down and thought "Yeah, people want to play as a black woman".
OOF
>A. Wake
Holy shit
is this the thread where Ganker collectively tries to gather their pattern recognition skill to make a stupid meme

This is funny because it's stating the exact opposite of what's true.
No more black women please.

You're gonna as Alan for like 25% of the game at most and I bet his levels are procedurally generated trash
Alan wake was always woke, it's in the name
Unironically should play great, thanks OP
I'm really glad that I don't actually like videogames.
looks good what you thought people would be upset theres a black chick MC
>hey you know Alan Wake?
>yeah we’re making another one!
>this one stars Aniqueesha Wake tho!
Why even bother, not getting it lmao
>Yeah, lets subverse expectations in a time were others are being succesful while delivering what people want
Nice one Remedy.

Wew.

>Hope they don't just kill his character off for "horror lulz".
Alex Casey dies in the last book in the series, that Alan finished in the first game.
They’re keeping the Alan sections as under wraps as possible because that’s where the most important bits happen. How does no one else see that?
More like they’re subverting your expectations like clever western writers and 90% of the game is you not playing as Alan.
they've already stated the game is divided into 2 equal parts
So you play as a literal glowie? That's too on the nose for me.
