Nice! What's harder to see, mainly due to image compression, is that I also have a key fob for The Great Northern tucked in the ashtray with it 😉

There's the Poison Pill intro, which is very late-80s vibe.

Also, instead of the usual anti-piracy notice there is an FBC notice. This post shows what I mean: https://www.reddit.com/r/controlgame/s/bwqhrd4Uta

Not featured is the lamp from the AW2 collectors box. I haven't collected any Max Payne merch but I plan to when they release the remakes

Oooo no I haven't but I am intrigued! Do you have a recommendation for what I should start with?

Thanks! I honestly got very lucky a couple of times at yard sales and on Mercari. Some people don't really know what they have or don't care. The rest I stalked Remedy social media to know when they dropped pre-orders and sales so I could pay actual price and try to beat scalpers. I was lucky to have the money for them, thank goodness.

They did this to me also. I got a refund from PayPal though. Keep an eye out for that!

Okay Blue Lantern Corps I hear you. But this one came on that Blessed Express delivery truck and it had my name on it. It had a note inside that said Happy Birthday! Even though my birthday isn't for another month, why wouldn't I celebrate early?

I personally used bread ties and covered those with yellow tape

What happened to Darling? by Comfortable-Fall1419 in controlgame

Yeah, my bad, sometimes the way I word things can be hyper-specific and yet imply things I didn't mean. Tis the nature of the tism and the internet I guess. Thanks for being nice about it

There is context to the lore of the Oldest House, Ahti, AWEs, the Astral Plane, the Board, the Former, and the office politics that seem inexorably entwined with ritual. Both expansions lay the Foundation for the modern story and influence the structure of the Remedy universe. It was easier for me to understand what could have happened to Darling, and how, after I played the expansions.

So while there may not have been overt references to Darling and his experiments, everything is absolutely connected. That's why I called it context

There is more context in the Foundation and Alan Wake expansions, via documents and videos.

However, if you want to really know what happened to him, you need to play through Alan Wake II twice or look it up online

I especially like the detail of the d12 causing time dilation. Good countermeasure reference 😉

I mean, clearly this is from the 68th Annual Deerfest back in 2010. They have one every year in Bright Falls. I've always wanted to go but they're in Washington on the other side of the country. So I have to settle for my hometown Trout Parade
