I agree with your comments on the jump scares in Alan Wake 2, but the overall vibe and story was much better than the first game. Helped with the atmosphere and feel of this game.

I like the thoughts laid out here about fast travel and the timer. The idea of gaining more time by achieving objectives or capturing strongholds helps a little with the issue of open world against constant time crunch. I’m curious to see how this turns out.
