I don't think Darling is captured. Considering he "died" and is in another plane of existence (given that he can communicate with Jesse through the Hotline), he's just there too, just like Saga (Door complaining to Alan that he pulled Saga into the story; same principle with Darling). But with the DLCs coming (the one involving the FBC), this game will nurture the future Remedy games for sure.

I seriously think Tom and Alan are the same person in the normal world but in parallel realities (universes) and overlapping timelines. The Dark Place is an overlap that connects them and that’s why they see eachother, though the time doesn’t work there as we’re used to in the real world. There is just so much evidence. The deja vu parts, the many worlds quote at the very end and the theory by Darling, the many faces and for example the fact that there are Tom’s books in Alan’s apartment in the dark place! It’s fascinating, really.

Casey himself says that a Director wants to control every aspect of the world in his films, just like how Scratch/The Dark Presence wants to control reality. Secondly, Zane in Room 665 dances to The Happy Song the same way Scratch does, and wears the same wedding ring Scratch has around his neck as well as wearing a deconstructed, 70s version of Scratch’s AWAN outfit. This might be why The Dark Presence hit so angry and desperate by AW2 - it’s been forced to pretend to be someone else and be killed by the person it hates the most over and over and over until they can escape, which must’ve been incredibly painful for a being that craves praise and attention.

I was a drunk and a drug addict for years.. I've been clean for a while now.. This game, in part, seems an allegory for fighting addiction.. The revelation at the end, that it is not a loop, it is in fact a spiral, is a revelation that many cured addicts can attest to.. Along with the strange, dark and ominous journey that Alan has gone through, this too is very much juxtaposed with fighting demons within.. A more poetic display of this war, I have not seen in this medium.. Bravo...

It's implied throughout both games that Alan was struggling with drinking and was emotionally and mentally unstable. The first game credit song is 'War' by Poets of the Fall; AW2 uses their song 'Heros and Villians'. The game draws a lot of parallels between struggling with mental health and Alan's journey through what turns out to be his own inner darkness.
@alienatedpoet17668 ай бұрын
@@melissaharris3389 The series is also symbolic of writing itself too. Quite literally, the first game's narrative is based on writer's block, both literally where Remedy was trying to follow up on their Max Payne success just like Alan tries to follow up his Alex casey books, but also how the dark place restrains creativity and prevents cohesive ideas and narratives from forming. Both American nightmare and 2 work within spirals, just like drafts of a creative work where small incremental changes per draft can eventually turn the end product almost unrecognizable from the first draft. Many creative people, like Alan, try to brute-force their blocks and creativity through drugs and alcohol, leading into addiction. And Most, if not all, creatives struggle with their own self-doubt and mental issues. Drugs and alcohol eventually become a crutch and take over, turning what should be art into a means to feed the addiction, very similar to how the dark place feeds of creativity for its own ends. Even Coffee, while a legal stimulant, is still technically a drug and that plays a large role in these games too. As a writer myself, I love Alan Wake for having so many layers to it. Many times analysis on works feels like they come from nowhere, but at least here the connection with writing and addiction feel solid because so much is implied in the games themselves.

With that being said we know who our “Shifters” are, some are more powerful and capable than others, and a few are what Martin Hatch/Warlin Door called “Unwilling Disciples”. Breaker/Joyce, Faden/Wilder, Wake/Zane, Hatch/Door, Saga, and maybe even Casey/Payne are all shifters in one form or another.

Door claims Wake “brought someone important to him” into the story, and Door explains his family can traverse reality as they like, explaining how Saga can twist The Dark Place and navigate it while Alan insists on writing his way through it.

So right now my theory stands. Alan wake created Jesse from control to come get him out of lake. (Which was more or less spelled out during the AWE dlc from control) What was confusing me was why abandoned that plan for this one? But this now makes sense the dark presence was tied to him in scratch. He could be pulled from the lake but the lake would come with him as we saw. He stopped writing because he realized this. Zane worked with scratch to create return trying to go over Alan head. alan rewrote that story and used to it create separation which he accomplished thanks to Alice and sage. He is now separated, enlightened, and still powerful. Able to use the power without being its vessel. Now he can finish the control story (control 2). Use Casper to bridge the gap and bring a fully realized Jesse in to actual fight and seal the darkness and fully free him from the lake. (Alan wake 3: Controlled wake)

That Alan has beaten the Dark Presence and gained the ability to affect all the realities.

Its confused but i think you guys will sort all of this! Trust me on this: Alan is Tom from another world, and Alice is Barbara from another world. Both of them are the same, dont trust on Tom The Cineast, since he was created, just like Tom The Diver and Tom Zane The Poet, the only one that true remains, is Tom Seine, even the Lady Of The Light, which previously was Cyntia Weaver, never call Tom as "Zane", but always as TOM !

Tom The Poet and Tom The Diver are one in the same and are canon, The House of Dreams ARG confirms it. Basically, Samantha Wells finds The Shoebox and inside are photos of Zane and Barbara diving on their boat and poems written by Zane either while outside or whilst inside The Dark Place. Considering everything out in the shoebox is not affected by AWEs, and is therefore the real or true version of an item, it confirms Zane was a diver and poet. We know Tom didn’t “create” Alan, but he used him, created a story about a writer taken by a Dark Presence to write about himself (Zane) to free him. However, due to Alan being a parautilitarian, it would seem that he was able to start writing his own way through the story, and as a result they are sort of stuck writing each other. Darling is definitely stuck in The Dark Place as in his second message he meets The Film Director version of Zane, who wants to collaborate with him. This is basically the final nail in the coffin to me that Film Director Zane is Mr. Scratch/The Dark Presence. They both dance the same way to The Happy Song and Zane wears a 70s disco version of Mr. Scratch’s suit, and also wears a wedding ring identical to Scratch’s around his neck. This Zane collaborating with seemingly anyone he finds in The Dark Place suggests to me that The Dark Presence pretended to be this version of Zane and wrote him into reality in order to manipulate anyone who goes into The Dark Place into writing him out and into reality, so that The Dark Presence can escape into reality.

Or was he missing his two halves, and now they have been joined together for Alan to become what he is now. I also have a theory that “The Master of Many Worlds” is meant to imply that we keep seeing Matthew Porretta as different characters in The Remedyverse because he’s like, split between them, he’s Alan, Darling, and the true Thomas Zane (Matt voices young Zane at the end of AW1 when you hear him cut out Barbara’s heart) Speaking of Zane, I think i understand who was writing who? To escape The Dark Place, Zane wrote about Alan Wake, guiding him through his life. Then, when Alan is taken into The Dark Place to write Departure, he begins writing Zane and himself, like how Saga broke away from the story Alan had written.

i have a question, if Tom created Alan (i personally don't subscribe to this theory but it's a valid theory nonetheless) why Warlin Door is taking so much interest in Alan? shouldn't Door taking interest in Tom? i think that Tom is Allan from an alternate reality since the dark place exist between the infinite different realities and Alan mastered or the very least understood how to navigate it by using his art unlike Tom who is still stuck.

If Door wants to help Zane and Alan is Zane's tool to escape, logically helping Alan would be the best bet.

@alienatedpoet17668 ай бұрын
I think Tom is another aspect of Scratch/ the Dark Place. I also feel like the Tom Zane/Mr. Scratch scenes debunk that American Nightmare isn't canon. In the first game, Thomas Zaine created Mr. Scratch so he could take Alan's place in the real world, but the Dark Prescence hijacked Mr. Scratch and Mr. Scratch wasn't able to leave. Alan was working on a much earlier draft of Return in American Nightmare where Alan created Mr. Scratch as his alter-ego based on the tabloid rumors and all the negative aspects of Alan. However, his physical form was destroyed and Alan managed to get a glimpse of Alice's artwork dedicated to him before he was sent back into the spiral. Even his clothes in that game, which embody the positive memories with Alice, is what he wears in AW2. Then in the Control AWE DLC, we see Tom Zane and Alan Wake in the Ocean View hotel, where Tom looks just like Alan as they go over the dialogue in their first scene together about working together. As Jesse wasn't affected by the Dark Place's visions, she could see Zane for how he really was. Either that or, this is another earlier version of the spiral where they didn't look finalized. Just like writing drafts of a story, slowly improving with each draft. Then in Alan Wake 2, that prior scene features the Happy Song from Poets of the Fall, which was associated with Mr. Scratch in American Nightmare. And when Alan was back in reality he was wearing his light pleasant memory clothes until Mr. Scratch took over. Zane also pulls the same trick on Darling on saying he'll work with him, but really its to his own ends. Zane also seems to have some control over the dark place. We know that Scratch, using Alan, can write his own stories and change reality. He probably took over the original Thomas Zaine, changed him into Tom Zane and from poet to filmmaker, in order to further his ends. I also saw some theories that Thomas was Loki, the third band member of the Old Gods of Asgard who disappeared in 1972, but "Fat" Bob Balder is the third member in Alan Wake 2. So who knows with that connection. We don't know what the DLC has in store, but I don't think the Dark Place has given up, Alice's rescue feels set up for a third game more than DLC. But who knows. Saga, Wake, Casey, Tor, Odin are still in the Dark Place. We can only wait.

@@kallemort Casey and Alan were in the displaced town, that was stated to be a piece of the dark place that would slowly encapsulate the rest of the world. So that whole segment was separated from reality. Saga was still in the Dark Place through Cauldron Lake. She Astral-projected herself into Alan's writer's room, just like how Alan Astral projected himself into the fictional New York. The end of the game shows them in the writer's room, which is the closest to a physical space in the Dark Place as you can get. The door in the nursing home seems to be merely a portal, which is why Ahti guards it. It is stated in every game that radio signals, manuscript pages, and some other methods of communication can slip through the dark place, that includes cell phones, especially when written into reality.

we dont know exactly. at the final of control, he was exposed to a lot of the polaris ressonance, that changed him, and he just vanished, implying he's in another dimension, maybe one of the portals of the slide projector. could be the darkplace, or a space between dimensons.

Thank you for this upload so I can enjoy the real ending without playing the game once more. I love Remedy's games (I finished Control multiple times in all difficulties) but this one went too far into the "slow ass gameplay & very weak heros" that it completely put me off going though those horrible fight sequences again. REMEDY YOU ARE NOT CAPCOM STOP TRYING TO MAKE A RESIDENT EVIL COPY CAT. Alan Wake I had mode balanced fighting scenes (but a bit too much of them) and Control is just perfect is all aspects - Story telling, genius gameplay and rythm.

From what we know the story's the same, it ends the same way except Alan remembers everything at the last moment...So why does it stop the Spiral?

Man, if we don’t get some closure on Alice and Barry I think I’ll cry lmao. Other than that I think this really did a nice job tying off plot threads! Maybe we’ll get some answers in a new control game if Remedy doesn’t want to make a new Alan Wake game (understandably, they do a lot to close things out here and seem to confirm Alan is Out of the dark place, so any follow up would need to work from a premise where Alan isn’t being manipulated by it, if they want to continue using him in the story. At the same time, Alan Writes in trilogies, so there’s still a possibility for a third installment)
