Now playing: Alan Wake (2010)

https://www.remedygames.com/games/alan-wake

The game is old, from 2010, and thus isn't as humungous as current games, and it runs well on current hardware.

The story is OKish, it follows a writer as he discovers he is in his own story, in a Stephen King / Maine setting. Some darkness takes over people and you have to fight these.

The gameplay is serviceable as well. The whole game is made up like a TV series, with distinct chapters and recaps at the start of each new chapter.

You control Alan Wake from a third-person perspective. The game alternates between a walking simulator and fights where you have to first burn the darkness away from creatures and then shoot them with a gun. Often the creatures come from off-screen behind you, which is not helped by the close perspective.
