So last night I finished Alan Wake Remastered, and go to look at Alan Wake II prices, and I see that it has a free 3 hour trial. Great! It’s 12:30am now, so I’ll just set it to download and try it tomorrow night! Today I go to have a look, and…the trial is expired because it started as soon as the download finished I guess. Fuck me.

      I can’t imagine a world where I don’t love it. Loved AW, Control, and all the Max Paynes. I dont even know how many times I’ve played Max Payne 2. But goddamn, really guys?

    It used to be that the timer started as soon as you hit download, however they supposedly fixed it later on to only start whenever you booted up the game (and stop as soon as you fully quit it).
    I guess there might be some bugs / potential rollback on that fix, but since it’s never been officially communicated AFAIK…
