Surprise surprise everyone. Remember ‘This House Of Dreams’ blog, a blog that was said to be made by a fan that featured a lot of references to both Alan Wake 1 & 2.

One of these images is from ‘This House Of Dreams’ blog and the other one is with Sam Lake in the very same room.

Now let me start this post by saying that Darksiders II PC was a complete mess. You can read our performance analysis and find out what was wrong with it. In my opinion, Vigil should take care of the PC version, polish it, optimize it, and then release it. However, it did not and as a result of that, the PC version flopped. Not that the console versions were a success but Vigil could at least boost the game’s sales with a proper PC version of it.

Man, what an exciting afternoon it was. Yes, unfortunately THQ has been shut down and it’s really sad witnessing such a publisher going down. However, most of the company’s assets have been succesfully acquired by other companies, so there is nothing to worry about. Unless of course you’re interested in a new Darksiders 2 as Vigil Games was not sold to anyone and if THQ does not find a seller in the coming months, the studio will most probably close.
