After the first act, there's a short Junction part. You pick one of two choices and then the TV show part begins.

Saw the first episode of the TV show and I thought it was very well done and enjoyable. My wife was watching me play and wanted me to go Hardline so that is what I went with. I thought it was pretty cool that it tells you how many of your friends agreed with you and how many in the community. 60% of my people on my friends list chose Hardline while the community was at 30% hardline.
I am really loving this game, the narrative, the visuals, the TV show is all well made. With as good as I think the lighting, effects, character models etc are, it is pretty mind boggling how certain scenes can looks so fantastic and others look completely bad. For example as you are heading to the library, you go through a cafeteria section, it just looked really bad, like it was dropping below 720p, then shortly after you come to the beginning point of entering the library and it is just breathtaking on how good it looks. Fortunately, the great looking sections are more common than the bad looking areas, it is just weird to have some sections look so damn good and something as simplistic looking like the cafeteria section can look so bad.
Anyways, game is overall still fantastic and only stopped to eat dinner and then back to the game. Great job Remedy...but please give me the option to turn off the grain filter.

I would love if they added a proper photo mode to this game. I've been taking a ton of screenshots.

Sounds like I need this game
You do.
Just finished.
I thought things would get a bit and weirder there at the end, but I love it. That was one of the best written games I've seen in a while, and just like with Alan Wake, I know I'll do a second playthrough. Even the credits music is awesome, too!
Also, I fucking knew Hatch was a shifter. I called it from the middle of act 3. DAMMIT HATCH.

I'm early on(Beginning of Act 2) and a bit disappointed. Game is super blurry. For reference I play on a 1080p 100" projector. The default sensitivity I felt was too high. Reduced to 30% and felt better. Audio in the sound effects area I felt was lacking. Walking over leaves on the ground didn't provide a sound effect. Neither did walking into bushes.
What I do like is the gun play and story. I was taken back by my Hardline choice in a good way. The real time video provided emphasis to my choice. I enjoyed the acting and the dialogue as well.

First act and first episode done. Dang, what a game so far, the combat and gameplay is really clicking and the story is starting to ramp up really well. Doesn't have the chill down your spine moments so far that Alan Wake did, but man do I want to learn what happens next, so many different directions it can go. Act 2 tomorrow!

Forgot how much I loved remedy games and Sam lake
an Alan wake 2 where u play as an fbi agent trying to find what happened to Alan wake and his wife sounds fucking awesome
They could play it like Alan wake just went crazy killer with hidden manuscripts and what not then go full paranormal further in
Would be so amazing

No it isn't. Its fucking ugly as shit and a fucking bizzare design choice. Its actually fucking with my enjoyment of the game, which is already not exactly rocking my world.

So my PC is nowhere near capable to playing this.
How's the performance on Xbox One?

Fairly good but not completely locked. IQ is okay considering it's 720p. The main issue are the low resolution shadows, ghosting and some occasionally bad screen tearing. Considering the hardware it runs remarkably well.

Why do so many goddamn good games put an annoying boss fight right at the end?
Seems like a solid 30. Off the top of my head can't think of any big dips so far. Pick it up, it's a great game!
Remedy must have got some tips from Naughty Dog.

Triggering my flashbacks.
Ok that wasn't a bad boss fight, just annoying. I wish games wouldn't always insist on being so game-y sometimes. Oh well, I forgive you Remedy.
Edi: that was a cool game. I'm 100% playing it again. Kind of want to play all the Alan Wake stuff again too. God, a new Alan Wake game in this engine would be unbelievable. The game has its issues and doesn't always execute its ambitions well, but holy cow did I ever enjoy it.
Someone needs to green light this movie

Offline was about 40 min total. You can launch at 45% ish but I didn't since was offline got the patch.
Been playing most of the day and I foresee me replaying. Probably won't finish until the weekend...stupid work
It's an unlock, and super op.
You have unlimited pistol ammo, that alone can wreck goons along with good combos.
Okay,game is getting hard,even on normal right now...got to get into my head that cover is basically useless in this,especially in that room in Act 2,part 2 where they tell you to stack bullets on the chrono barrels to cause stutter...not sure what that means and I keep dying there because I am one against 10 guys it seems and half of them rush me...I also lost an upgrade that I saw but opened a door and couldn't go back to it after...I hate that.
Guess I need to get gud...

Melee is 1 hit kill.
You basically super punch people or you remove their suit that stops them from moving in stutter.
That really had me loling haha. I was hoping there would be an achievement for reading the whole thing though haha.

still a better love story than twilight
Basically, never stop moving.
There's a small video teaser near the end of a movie called "Time Stabber," along with an email that talks about going to Kickstarter with the idea. I would totally back said Kickstarter.

Just finished it, absolutely fantastic game, great story and the TV show was way better than I though it would be. Can't remember when was the last time I was so hooked with the game and story, great job Remedy. Final boss fight on hard was absolutely great, you really can't get a breather, power after power, after power till everyone is dead, loved it. I really hope they will make a sequel to it. Platforming was kinda junky and they can either make it better or completely skip it for next game. And if QB 2 is a go, please keep the TV show, it really helped connect with the world, characters and story.
Remedy, you know order of things right? First Alan Wake 2 and Quantum Break 2 after that

yeah, I don't know why people would say the game is short, do they play on easy and rush through it? It took me like 16 hours on hard with reading and collecting stuff. This is the type of the game when you want to get as much as you can on the story and background, you don't rush it.
