Haven't played Alan Wake 2 yet, is it good? I remember the original one fairly fondly (it played really well on my underpowered laptop and thought the story was decent).
Alan Wake 2 was my personal GotY last year (and yes, I also played BG3). It's both great as a video game, but also doing something very different from other AAA games with a very unique artistic POV, which I admire. It's also dramatically enhanced by having played AW1 and Control, as the Remedy Connected Universe is doing a sort of Marvel thing. Hell, it even pseudo-ties into Max Payne and Quantum Break.
I definitely recommend it, not least for that one specific moment which I can't spoil. Also the soundtrack is an absolute banger, I still listen to Poe - This Road frequently.
