Perhaps. But as long as he makes games, one shouldn't complain. You may not like his attitude, (and of course you can critisize that behaviour) but hey.
I can't believe you actually said that Remedy games share the same spirit as Quantic's, though. That's wrong on so many levels.

Perhaps I got that impression because Alan Wake was touted as competition for Heavy Rain when those games released.

EDIT: Wasn't Alan Wake marketed as a 'psychological action thriller'? That sounds like movie marketing to me.

The only reason Alan Wake was touted as competition is because they were both exclusive to different consoles. It was a matter of Heavy Rain (Ps3) vs Alan Wake (Xbox 360). Alan Wake is marketed as a psychological actoin thriller indeed. The game itself is narrated into a TV series estructure. Outside of that, Alan Wake has a very strong story, a solid gameplay (albeit repetitive by the end of the game) and a killer soundtrack.
