What game did you last finish? What did you think of it?

I picked up "Mafia: Definitive Edition" cheap the other day (I've linked it on Steam as it's still on sale for the next few days).
I was a fan of Mafia (the original from 2002) and felt it was cheap enough to give it a shot and I'm glad I did: besides the infamous/arduous racing level I found it to be very enjoyable overall.
I was sad to see that there wasn't any "Freeride Extreme" in the latest version (this was bonus, fun, ludicrous content, available after completing the game) as it would have been a nice addition, the "Freeride" mode is likewise a little lackluster but the actual campaign is great.
What was the last game you finished? Was it any good?

Alan Wake 2. What a masterpiece, especially THAT sequence. I absolutely loved this game.
The older I get, the more I start to appreciate studios that take risks and believe in their creative identity. Games like Death Stranding and Alan Wake 2 are perfect examples. They're not everyone's cup of tea, but that's what art is. Someone might hate something that you personally find breathtaking. And vice versa.
I'm also playing Spiderman 2 at the moment, and while it's good and it's very fun, I will not remember this game 1 day after I finish it. Death stranding I finished 3 months ago and I still think about it. I'm extremely excited for DS2 and hopefully Alan Wake 3.
I also just finished Alan Wake 2. The first game is in my top 3 favorite games of all time, so I was super excited for the sequel. The overall presentation is definitely A++ and so are the graphics. However, there were a couple of really obvious and annoying bugs that should never have made it past QA.
While I really liked the new characters, the overall storyline has become (even by Remedy standards) extremely convoluted and the ending wasn't very satisfying. I also found the constant references to Finland a bit too much on the nose and they kinda took me out of the game a couple of times.
Of course the game makes it up in other aspects, such as the new gameplay that was clearly inspired by Resident Evil, which I also really like. Alan's mind place was also fun and I found the ability change the scenes by rewriting them very creative. Saga's mind place started out great as well, but it started to feel like a chore as the game went on.
Despite the nit-picking, it is pretty good game overall and I'm excited for their future projects in this universe.
