Line 4:
** This can also apply to {{spoiler|Agent Nightingale}} if you have access to ''[[All There in the Manual|The Alan Wake Files]]'' from the Limited Edition. {{spoiler|He feels guilt over his partner's death and is taking it out on others on the job. Of course, Alan receives the full brunt of Agent Nightingale's behaviour}}.
** Mister Scratch of all people is a helpless slave to the way he's written. As a self-aware fictional character, it bothers him enough that he tries to bring it up with Alan but ''can't''.
* [[Anticlimax Boss|Anti-Climax Boss]]:
** The final boss of the main game only has a flock of crows to defend itself once you get within shooting range, and you get a chest with unlimited flare gun ammo.
** The final boss of The Signal can be dispatched with a few flare gun shots and boosting the flashlight for about 15 seconds or so. There's a reason one of the achievements requires you to beat it in a minute and a half. The final boss of The Writer is legitimately difficult, though certainly not in [[That One Boss]] territory.
* [[Badass Decay]]: When the kidnapper, Mott, is introduced, he kills multiple Taken in quick succession, and is quick to display that [[Genre Savvy|he knows how to effectively defeat them]]. Later, he's {{spoiler|effectively killed offscreen. But then again, he was confronted by the [[Eldritch Abomination|main host of the Darkness]], so he was rather outclassed.}}
* [[Non Sequitur Scene]]: In ''American Nightmare'', during your final trip to the observatory, you fight a horde of Taken while "Balance Slays the Demon" plays seemingly from nowhere. Does Rachel [[Source Music|play it for you over the intercom]]? Is Alan hearing it in his head because [[Crowning Moment of Awesome|he enjoyed the Children of The Elder God fight more than he let on]]? Or perhaps it's [[Fridge Brilliance|part of the soundtrack to the episode of Night Springs he is living]]?
