Remedy's stream discussing the story and gameplay of Control (while playing a free-roam version of the demo they have been showing behind closed doors) has been archived on Youtube, for your viewing pleasure. I might post a "neat new informations list" from that stream if I do get to watch it soon, no promises though.

Update: I did watch it (very fun watch, lovely people playing a cool game) and here's the list. Most of things here are probably already talked about on Game Informer but oh well.
-Southern Reach trilogy = main inspiration for the game (I'm going to start reading it soon).
-The game wont focus on explaining how things work or why things are what they are. "It's about the journey, not the destination" kind of thing.
-There's a document in-game talking about a fridge that somehow kills organic entities near it if it's unwatched for 20-35 seconds (SCP vibes). It's involved in a side mission in the game.
-Environmental puzzles? "Absolutely."
-Accessibility options incoming.
-Jesse (main character) can get different outfits.
-Certain enemies will drop materials that you can use to craft items and upgrades, which encourages exploration to different sectors (because some enemies are only on some sectors).
-Thresholds = places in The Oldest House that "bleeds into other Dimensions", and their properties blend with our dimension.
-Environmental storytelling galore (maybe), one example shown is a visible burn mark around a molded area, showing that the Bureau tried to contain a otherworldly mold from spreading.
-There's characters to interact with. Bizzare characters.
-It's open ended, not open world. It's not God of War, it's not Farcry.
-The entire game is in The Oldest House.
