Control Resonant

It's hard to tell from the trailers, but my hope is that you'll be hugely powerful, at least after a bit of upgrading, with the ability to fly/float for prolonged periods, massive telekinesis ability so you can wang stuff about all over the place and basically the ability to go full Akira (or Tetsuo, for those who like the film).
 
Can't say that I'm hyped. Graphics could be nice, but the gameplay seems like a very faaaar away departure from the first game - not that being constrained to The Oldest House was nice.

Resonant's combat looks more interesting to me and more my style of action game, but I like Control a lot and it's combat was really fun (if a little limited imo).


Very close to Alan Wake 2's recommended requirements, just slightly more demanding for the graphics card it seems.

I think the gameplay can simply be described as wack given what has been seen so far.
 

Wow it look really amazing, think the new updated NorthLight engine will have huge improvements over the last game when Alan Wake 2 started development back in Aug 2019 at the same time when Control released on 29 Aug 2019.

Youtube age verification suck so I need to sign in!
 
Going from gunplay to melee is a huge change and I hope they pull it off.

I do trust Remedy to make this a great game but there is part of me that's disappointed it's not an evolution of Jesse's story and her gun.

Me either. Maybe we will find Jesse at the end the game then hopefully Control 3 will have an evolution of Jesse's story and her gun.
 
I really like the art direction of the game, everything in that trailer is just interesting to me.

... and here's some new gameplay footage


Seems to all be from the early part of the game. Lots of combat footage here too, looks so much fun.
 
The first game I've ever pre-ordered!

Bit anxious about controls, I'm a kb+m person, not sure it lends itself to this but I'll retrain if I have to :)
 
That trailer gave me more hope that they keeping the crazy mystery of the old house. Still little worried it might be overly action heavy as the strongest part of control was the lore / story building.
 
I'm a bit apprehensive of the direction they've gone in with the combat as melee stuff really isn't my thing, but I loved Control and really like the "Remedy Connected Universe" they've created so I'm in regardless, even if it means dropping the difficulty down to Story mode and going along for the ride.

Really looking forward to this, the melee combat doesn’t bother me, but I suspect it’s not all that it seems and a lot has been kept hidden.

I always take those recommendations with a big pinch of overly optimistic dev salt. My PC matches all the requirements of the far right column, the CPU exceeds it and i would be running at 2160p. Whilst I'm sure it would run as a game with those settings, it would be a long way from optimal and I will end up turning things down / switching settings off for a smoother overall performance. I do like the choice of Omen for the trailer song; always time in my day for a bit of Prodigy.
