I gotta play Alan Wake, then play Alan Wake II
i did play the original and i think AW2 does a pretty good job of onboarding you, so you could probably skip it if you end up getting frustrated with it while playing it or wanted to save time, money, or what have you
Hmmmmm. I've played Control, but also I always wanted to go back and play Alan Wake
