Remedy CEO: "Control was developed in three years with a budget of less than €30 million [...] may not have topped charts but sales are steady"

Glad to hear it's doing well! It's sitting at number two on my personal Game of the Year list right now
I'm glad it wasn't a bomb for them. Remedy deserves to do well and I would hate for them to close down.
I also selfishly wish they optimized Control for base consoles so I didn't have to skip it until next gen.

All the people who hop into those threads just to write bomba and leave based on little evidence are annoying.
Glad it's doing well! Minus some of the tech issues, the team did a great job. Can't wait for the expansions.
The reason I didn't buy it on launch was because of the performance issues I read about. I'm tired of rewarding companies for buggy products. I got it for Black Friday and I'm enjoying it but even with patches the performance is wonky at times. I will say, performance issues aside I am really, really enjoying the game.
I thought the atmosphere in this game was top notch, I was waiting for a David Lynch to pop up somewhere. I bought Control day one and don't regret it, not a perfect game but a very good one. Hope they continue the series/universe
Control is terrific so glad it's been a success for them. Regret playing it at launch though as it was a fucking sideshow on the pro. Probably one of the worst performing games of this gen I've played.
Not trying to be snarky, but what would you prefer out of them? This is kind of their wheelhouse so I'm curious if you had a particular thing you'd want to see them do after this.
Grabbed it two weeks ago and was glued to it beginning to end and even got all achievements. Can't wait for the DLC. I think it's their best work by a huge margin and a Game of the Gen contender.
I'm really glad they don't feel like a total failure, I absolutely loved the game and would love to see more from them with a similar level of investment and creativity. My only wish was that the game was better optimized and ran a little better (even on a One X, this is one of the worst-running games I've played in a really long time), but maybe that will take a slightly higher budget or more time for their next time.
Honestly anything other than what i just wrote..I've seen a couple of their games using this formula.. quantum break and this and iam pretty much fed up with that.
They could try doing a third person detective game or some sort of other cinematic experience even just not Sci-Fi like Control and QB. These games didn't appeal to me one bit.
I wonder how many people are like me and are just waiting to purchase games like these after the RTX 3000 series hits. I want to buy it, but I want my first experience with the game to have next gen performance.
I really enjoyed Control and might look at grabbing that DLC.. I rarely get DLC for games but really enjoyed this game in particular. Just a blast to play
I bought it on Black Friday, it was 50% off. I just upgraded to Xbox One X too, hopefully it doesn't run like shit.
Well damn :/
I had seen some gameplay on PS4 Pro and the stuttering was horrendous especially when the game was paused for some reason

Releasing on Epic games launcher only certainly did not help. It's the reason I never picked it up.
Aside from some brief slowdown in a couple of very large and messy fights I got myself into, it ran fine for me.
Looking forward to giving this a try when it's on Steam and on sale. RTX cards at that point should be enough to power through this game with everything turned up.
