Control Resonant

[Kelt]

My pc is a bit old and due an upgrade 6700k 1080 graphics card. Will upgrade at some point and play it at max settings.

Yeh, it ran fine for me on my last PC, an oc'd X5650 and a 1070, but it's a lot better (visual) experience with RTX on.

Loved the first one - can't wait

From memory you could stick with a relatively small amount of the weapons and skills

Stick with? Sure. But the game just showered those things and you had limited storage so you either had to just stop collecting them altogether or you had to frequently clean out your inventory of junk in order to pick up new ones. It was just a bad system all around (especially since the pickups were generally pretty weak) - I'd have preferred to see a simple skill tree system with you picking up XP (or whatever) to upgrade branches on the tree.

I think Control is a great game but I can't replay it 'cause that system sucked soooo badly.

Yeah I do have memories of that but the storyline and gfx etc really made up for it... I might give it another play tbh

 

[Craig R]

I got bored very quickly of the first one, tried to pick it up again but just found it repetitive.

Same. Uninstalled after a few hours.

 

[nazhus]

Still need to try this, usually enjoy Remedy games.

Same. Uninstalled after a few hours.

Glad I'm not the only one. I got it free on Epic Games a while back, so nothing paid. I might give it another try now I have a Steam Deck. I can see the deck being an ideal system to play it on.

 

[GlitterBalls]

Looks great on the Deck.

I'm surprised at some of you that found it "boring" I have a hard time playing single player games when I am so used to competitive or at least multiplayer games with a small community of peeps. Control was one of the few games that just fully engrossed me from start to finish :]

CONTROL Resonant Switches Protagonist, Brings the Action in 'Open Ended' Manhattan in 2026

Ahead of the announcement at TGA 2025, we attended a remote press presentation where Remedy revealed the first details of CONTROL Resonant.

Going to be another glorious RT title!!!!! Yeah baby! What a time to be alive!

Hopefully it will be ray tracing only and then option to choose path tracing like alan wake 2

[ShortWarning]

Looks great. Control is what fully invested me into the remedy-verse. Can't wait!

 

[ColdAsIce]

Stunning. Looked like they tightened up the combat too. Give me it now!

 

[TrojanWhore]

Still haven't got around to playing the first I keep meaning to then it slips my mind

You're missing out, great game.

 

[TrojanWhore]

Yeah it's definitely near the top of the ever growing list! Got a fair bit off time off over Christmas so definitely planning to fit a fair bit of gaming in

 

[opethdisciple]

Control was a little over rated imo. Good concept but gameplay was a little dry in places.

Particularly towards the end of I recall.

 

[Parky]

Probably a good time to visit the first one for me, I got it free when Epic were giving it away but it didn't run too great on my old setup so never made it more than 30 minutes in.

 

[DEL 707]

Definitely need to watch a video to remember what happened in the 1st game.

Little disappointed we are not playing as Jesse and it seems to take place outside the oldest house.
I'm interested to see how this turns out.

Excited to see how it goes and a little disappointed they moved away from the shooty/throw stuff Jesse gameplay. She does appear to feature in the trailer towards the end so maybe there's more to it. Either way, it'll be cool to see how Remedy tackle melee combat.
