I feel like the best part of this was that it looked like is SHOULD have been a horror game, but the main character is just "I've got this. I'm enjoying myself." and it completely changes the vibe of the game. She IS in Control.

I fucking love how pretty much everyone in the game is a professional that treats this absolutely bonkers situation as a slightly more difficult than usual occurrence that is stressful but they’re going to take care of business. That plus the truly lived-in nature of the offices is what puts the FBC up there with Black Mesa for one of the best video games settings.

I think another thing that really ads to the horror of this game is other than all the supernatural stuff it takes place in regular office building; just a normal thing you would see in the real world. Adding in the crazy stuff makes it feel like Frankenstein just broke into your house lol.

I liked the fast paced gunplay and the lore was cool but something about the charcters and the plot in general just felt a bit off to me - like the developers had a lot of great ideas for a world but not really how to write compelling charcters or a gripping story, you just unlock areas and gradually clean the place out. In the end it just felt like a good game to play but nothing I really had a connection with.

I don't think the Hiss made Trench off himself. I think the Board did as punishment for turning on the slide projector. During the Take Control mission , it shows Trench with the talking gun up to his head. Like when Jesse became director in the beginning and the Board was speaking to her through the gun. Not to mention the scene where Emily Pope says that directors aren't known to have normal retirements.
@Enbyvalent
@Enbyvalent Жыл бұрын
100% agree! If we take the vision of Jesse holding the gun to her head when she picks it up at the beginning to be literal and the Board Testing/Processing her application to become Director it implies that binding to the Service Weapon gives the Board a way to Control/Manipulate the person holding it. It would then make sense that the Board would be able to Dismiss/Kill the Director if they were displeased.

@@ronniewhitedx My only argument against this theory, which I also had at first, is the board could have offed him once they saw what he was doing and before letting in the hiss.

This was so beautiful, Tip. I’ve seen several versions of story summaries for Control, and no one has communicated beautifully the partnership & connection between Jesse and Polaris. I cried a bit when I finally got the whole story from that perspective, because all this time Polaris was not just another tool to use - she was Jesse’s partner through thick and thin. I can’t wait for your AW2 storytelling! I hope we find out where Dr. Darling went. He’s such an enigmatic character. Are we also getting more stories on the other areas and objects in the FBC? And also what the former Director of Ops mission was. Kudos again 👏

First of all, i loved part 1 and the AW videos too, and I'm currently watching this one. I had the urge to jump into lore videos all throughout my playthrough but I'm glad I held off! On a personal note, this game is truly special to me. In the past year, I felt I had lost my passion for gaming altogether. I got heavily into cycling and sold my Xbox, my switch, bought a road bike and only kept the ps5 to play the occasional GT7 game in the evening - with the idea of selling that one too really soon. I was ready to call it quit on gaming altogether, it just didn't seem to interest me anymore at all. Then, a couple weeks ago i started Control, after owning it since November 2019 on ps4 and never touching it. It came up on a randomizer when looking at my backlog and RELUCTANTLY (can you believe that?) i gave it a go... and one hour in, I was hooked completely. Ended up getting the platinum trophy - the first in so long, and 100% Foundation and AWE. What a breath of fresh air this game was for me. In a world where every game seemingly needs to be a huge open world full of absolutely nothing, this one brought me back to the simplicity of what gaming can be - engaging, fun and intriguing. Just to make a point how much I loved it, I played the ps5 version and I'm thinking of replaying it through the ps4 version to 100% it again 😋 this game single handedly reignited my passion for games and made me realize the issue wasn't with me at all. I can't wait for Control 2! I just need to get Alan Wake 2 soon now!

In my head the reason they never brought Jesse in when they obviously kept tabs on her through the years it's not because Darling was content with only having Dylan or even just for a backup to me it was an experiment to see how you make a good director is it better to teach and mold them or is it better to let them be free-range and grow on their own

He went to Watery because he knew another AWE was about to start, that Alan Wake was coming back but coming back with something evil as well. He left the Oldest House to go help Saga Anderson and Alan Wake, and has a nice neat little door in the Valhalla Nursing Home he can use to traverse between the two.

The lore of this game is so interesting, especially the relationship between all the entities in the Oldest House. My theory is that the Oldest House is originally Ahti's "domain" or territory. So he is in charge of it, but it still seems like he's separate from the Board. I'm thinking the Board is an alliance (maybe even a literal union) between several entities that want to keep interdimensional activities in check/under their control and Ahti lets the Board use his place because of common interests

I think the nature of Polaris and the Hiss is that they're both hiveminds, songs of unity, but while the Hiss is a song of domination, Polaris is a song of cooperation, so the effect of the Hiss is that it replaces and homogenizes, while Polaris connects and communicate, probably why Jesse can teleport, an ability shared by the Hiss, as it can teleport it's hosts around the house as well.

I loved this game so much in the Nintendo switch version. Back then I played this game with my friend that if we perish the other guy plays it. Like taking turns to play the game while exploring the lore. So many memories. And yet so confusing. But thank you for explaining to lore to us. BECAUSE WE WERE CONFUSED LIKE A CAT IN A CARDBOARD BOX

Maybe I'm wrong, but I don't think Alan Wake orchestrated the events of control. In this case I see him more as a chronicler than an author. And while writing about it, he is able to insert himself into the story? I guess the thought of him influencing/controlling the board, the hiss, hedron/polaris and by extension Jesse bothers me. Feels like a violation of character agency.

I always wondered why the symbol on Alan's Door was a spiral. One question answered and another takes its place

The one thing in the story of Control that bothered me was that they burned the slides for the projector. Not the fact that they would do it, but that they -could- do it. Throughout the game they make repeated mentions that altered items can't be destroyed. -- Flamethrower to the rubber ducky, and the fridge surviving the collapse of a building. -- So if all altered items can't be destroyed, then how were they able to burn the slides for the projector? I believe it was stated that the FBC tried to use other slides in the projector but they did nothing meaning the slides themselves are part of the altered item, including the projector, so it shouldn't be possible to destroy them. I feel like it was a lore mistake from Remedy. Or perhaps I'm wrong in thinking all altered items are indestructible. Because if they could be destroyed, then the duplicating clocks could have been fed to the furnace eliminating them as an issue, rather then blocking off that section of the oldest house.

It could be that the item is the projector, and the slides are more like a support gear to it, something that only can work with use of the projector, which is why they may be destroyable, as they have no power, not without the projector at least.

Jesse is enjoying herself, which helps hide how tragic Control is for Dylan and Jesse Faden. If Dylan had been treated with the humanity he deserved, this could have been avoided, or at the very least, mitigated. Dylan wouldn't have turned his back on Polaris, Hedron, Jesse, and ultimately his own humanity. He could have fostered a real connection with Hedron; he could have become a powerful Parautilitarian in his own right without succumbing to The Hiss for the veneer of agency. Trench may still have played stupid games and won stupid prizes, but Dylan's situation would've been different. Jesse would have a brother to return to with open arms - Dylan wouldn't have suffered so much trauma on top of having lost everything and everyone he knew.
