Not… Really. Alan Wake 2 under-performed and reportedly broke even 2 years after release. FBC Firebreak was a huge failure. It’s not surprising to me that they’re gonna pursue money harder. I hope Control 2 is good, at least.
IMO Alan Wake 2 could have performed much better if it wasn’t an Epic exclusive, but from what I heard, because of that deal, Remedy got their development cost back before the game officially broke even.
Don’t know what to think of Firebreak, because it’s a genre i don’t like (coop) and that doesn’t go well with Remedys biggest strength, the storytelling. Until recently i didn’t even know the game existed.

I imagine locking Alan Wake 2 to the EGS on pc probably did not help their sales there. FBC I feel like had no excuse though
