Hello guys. First of all: Control is gorgeous, isn't? That kinda living weapon the main character has is beautiful, the gameplay looks amazing. Can't wait to see more of it.
But that's not why I'm here today. Im here today to shake your world, steal your breath and Kindle that fire in your heart. Yes, Control is related/on the same universe as Alan Wake.
Thing is, now with the story details of Control being released to the public, I'm turning into Clay Steward in real life! I can't stop watching the trailer, seeking clues everywhere, reading all info I can find about Control, because it instantly flicked a light in my brain. And after hours of reading and researching Im pretty sure I figured it out.
Now, let's start it:
Do you guys remember, way back on 2012, that Remedy created a fake blog about someone who started to act like Clay Steward, seeing and feeling something supernatural tied to Alan Wake Universe.
It was called: This House Of Dreams, by Samantha. Here's the link to the blog:
http://thishouseofdreams.blogspot.com/
I remember that this forum erupted, everyone was anxious about Samantha next post, it was awesome. It started on the same day as Alan Wake's American Nightmare was released, so it was a kind of tie in with the game, but also a kinda of "see you soon" farewell. Also, it had vague hints about the world of Alan Wake, the Dark Place and stuff like this.
So I started to read it all from the beginning, until 03/14/2012 (or 14/03/2012). Samantha has finded a Shoebox in her new house, and had a strange, dark dream. In her dream, she was visited by an "federal agent", who showed her his ID. He says that the box is a top secret and she must give it to him. You should read this update, so I'm dropping the link:

Strange things happens and when she wakes up, she doesn't remind of his badge showing FBI or CIA. It was AWE.
If that name ringed an alarm in your head, its because the last time we heard of this name was way back in 2015. Remedy had registered "AWE - Bureau Of Altered Words" and "AWE". Here's the link:

It's also mentioned in Quantum Break, written on a wall.
Fast forward a series of unfortunate events, Samantha is contacted by a organization, who in turn says that they know whats happening to her, that it also happened before, the true origin of the shoebox, and that she should give it to them and stop updating the blog, she was in danger. Here's the link to this update:

This reminds her of that Agent, who had visited in her Nightmare. So, it was probably AWE.
Now, accordingly with all the info released by Remedy, Control Bureau is responsible for the investigation of supernatural events.
This is not a coincidence.
After a lot more of amazing poems and a Clicker, she has one last dream. This time, is not about AWE, agents or anything. It's about Thomas, Barbara, The Dark Presence and The Light Presence. Its the emotional farewell-but-see you soon. But at the same time, it gives us, Alan Wake fans, hope that we are gonna see more of this amazing franchise, but the last paragraph got me thinking, here, read this:
http://thishouseofdreams.blogspot.co...-deep.html?m=1
"It will be something totally different from what I'm expecting, something I could never had imagined" - Yeah, Control isn't what we expect as a Alan Wake sequel, i mean, where's Alan?
Now, from here is purely speculation from myself:
Don't forget the Campbell Monomyth
I) Departure (ALAN WAKE)
II) Initiation (CONTROL)
III) Return (ALAN WAKE 2)
Alan Wake Easter egg in Quantum Break also showed an Federal Bureal searching for clues about Alan Wake, Mr.Scratch and the Dark Place.
Its been two days only since Control has been announced, and I'm already losing my mind. When I started to put things in this perspective, everything fitted like a puzzle. Maybe I'm wrong, maybe I'm right, time will only tell. But this level of coincidence doesn't happen.
