I feel ya OP... and I actually enjoyed Quantum Break's TV episodes
I'm definitely replaying it after I finish Control though.

For me Quantim Break was the best Remedy game (big praise as I adore Alan Wake). The story was just so damn amazing not to mention it had world class actors and fun gameplay to back it up. I can see how people who care more for gameplay might not dig it but for a big sci fi nerd it was bliss. It felt like fringe meets doctor who all wrapped up in Remedy goodness. I'm a sucker for timey wimey shenanigans.
Quantum Break had some of the most fun third person shooter gameplay in the market, especially on hard.
Overall, I enjoyed QB more. Control beats it hands down in atmosphere, but I preferred the combat, performance, and minute to minute gameplay of QB more.

I'm so sad that Quantum Break will never have a sequel after such an interesting cliffhanger. I loved QB's story and characters.
Honestly, I think I would have enjoyed Control more had I not played Quantum Break. It honestly feels like DLC for Quantum Break over a fully fleshed out separate game.
I was waning by the end of Quantum Break and persevered and just don't have the desire to do so with Control.

Amen
I LOVED where the lore was going towards the end of QB.... some of those documents you read are something else. Especially alluding to who Lance Reddick's character actual was :)
The problem with Control for me is yeah, it rely's a bit TOO heavily on it's shoot bang and atmosphere. There are moment to moment bits where, I don't know, I just get kinda... disinterested. Like, I've had to legit force myself to play it at times, which for me at least, is never a good sign.
It's weird.

Quantum breaks time travel stuff was cool but I find Controls occult influences wayyyyyy more interesting
QB narrative/story is much better, graphics and animations are better too.
Outside the last two missions, Control gameplay is better.

I don't really like the setting in Control. And I think Remedy strength is in linear gameplay. Control felt lower budget in general.
The way the Beth saga played out is still one of the most heartbreaking moments of this generation.
Quantum Break was possibly the worst AAA game I've ever finished. It's honestly awful.
Control feels like a worthy successor to Alan Wake, one of my favorite games.
So I can't really relate at all. It's better in every single way, I can't even think of a minor thing I prefer in Quantum Break.

Quantum Break was fun, but Control is on a whole other level and is by far one of my favorite games of the year.
So...Control>QB for me.

Beaten both and I have to give it to Control it felt like a polished version of QB honestly . I remember combat in QB occasionally feeling sloppy Control just feels smoother and more fun to play overall. Story you could argue either way, Control has much better atmosphere and a strong overall feeling of suspense. Both are good games Control is just superior in almost every way GOTY for me
Not at all, quantum break feels like the worst game from Remedy to me, also hated the tv episodes.. they hold the game back.
Control story/general theme is way more interesting, the combat is easier but a little more polish or tight to control.
