⚠Warnings: Obviously contains spoilers about the game, may cause uncontrollable dancing and shredding, can lead to a severe case of rock'n'roll.

[arciarciarci]

"alan wake 2 is a psychological survival horror"

also alan wake 2:

[noco]

I can't believe Remedy made an entire game in order to promote this music video. Solid 10/10.

[Maxiom]

The actor for Mr. Door does such a fantastic job. His enthusiasm and upbeat/goofy personality are so obviously fake but you can't help but feel charmed regardless.

[lavalampbamboo]

Love picturing Sam Lake writing away and then typing “Then we all dance. Including specifically me. It’s magical.”

[jahrusalem]

I cannot get over Alan's constant and consistent "Where the fuck _am_ I?" expression.

[ronnarongparnyabarn]

The dark place is a scary, dangerous place.

Also the dark place :

[uttersolitude]

Sam Lake living his best life.

I hope we all achieve that one day.

[Jason-jiql]

Thank god Sam Lake pushed to keep this in the game. It was phenomenal.

[joe.osullivan]

This needs to be performed at The Game Awards. Massive missed opportunity if not

[ichisake]

Thank you Sam Lake for not giving up about the musical. This is absolute gold.

[Cloviekilla]

After showing my Mom the Last of Us TV show, she said she really enjoyed it and asked me if there were any other games I would like to see get adapted into a TV show. I told her about this game Alan Wake 2 thats a psychological horror game and then showed her this video without elaborating any further.

[juliahiiri]

Sam Lake looks like he doesn't regret a single life choice that has lead him to this moment. Just loving every second of it.

[octave]

Alan cannot look at a camera like normal, He either looks batshit insane or extremely confused and scared

[Joshluden]

In a interview with Sam Lake on video game reviewer Skill Up's podcast Friends Per Second, Sam revealed that this was constantly at risk of being cut. He originally tried to get something like this in Control but wasn't able to get it done. The scope of this was tremendous and unseen in gaming production, Sam pushed back multiple times to keep it alive and I seriously can't believe how good it came out. This could've easily came off terribly but the team pushed so hard with passion and it comes out in the segment. Thank you Sam for not faltering in your creative endeavors, Thank you Remedy for constantly pushing the envelope, Thank you Poets of the Fall for constantly breaking boundaries and crafting amazing music.

[PunkraiGames]

It's so funny that this is a horror game

[omega]

Alan is in a constant state of a kid who’s being introduced to his parents friends and I fucking love it

[AntonisDimopoulos]

This Alan Wake 2 part proves that the creative director of Remedy is not just Sam Lake. He's Sam Ocean of creativity.

[drangelice]

I see this as Door and The Gods' effort to put Alan back on track, after he snaps after so many years in The Dark Place, it tackles all his insecurities and remedies them.

-The Clicker isn't a mysterious object of power, it's a gift from your mother
-You've always been a writer, since the day you were born
-You're not evil, you're a man with vices and it's a tragedy that you gave into them
-You came to Bright Falls for her, and she came with you
-When you were thrown into Departure, a world of monsters and nightmares, did you run? No. You fought to save your wife, Bright Falls and everybody there. You're the Torchbearer
-You have to go deeper to surface, keep going even though it feels helpless
-You're the Champion Of Light and The Herald Of Darkness. You can make this place yours

[Sane-]

I'd just to point out that everyone is talking about "Mama Gave me a Magic Clicker" as well as "Sam Lake in the game" plus everything but gotdamn who knew Alan could do a good jazz number
