The plot is sharp and convincing for the proposal it contains. I am not sure if I am convinced about the ending though, I haven’t played the DLC yet. Outlast is one of those games that gives you freedom to create an interpretation of its meaning, just like Silent Hill for example, even though there is a ˜logical explanation˜ inside its events, it is never logical enough to fill all the answers lying in our heads, that is part of the mystery that circles the immersion of this game and survivor horrors alike. Outlast has enemies, bosses… And all you can do is run and hide, which provides the game an intense and tense situation to be concerned about, if you want to find jump scares, this one doesn’t provide much of them, if you want jump scares and **** on your pants, go to Layers of Fear instead… Outlast has good graphics (for an indie game, let it be clear and for a 3GB sized game), good gameplay, outstanding art direction and terrific AI on enemies… At least the most noticeable… I wish the game should`ve lasted a little longer, it wouldn’t hurt… More situations and more things to do on the game would be awesome… I had the feeling that the ending happened in the middle of the playthrough, and that was like taking back that cake was given to me.

Can't decide which Outlast is better, but that's because they both have very different feels and settings. They're both on my top 5 horror games! Go buy this now! 53 out of 54 people found this helpful. Astounding Horror Game! I can't remember the last time I had so much fun playing something! By far the scariest horror game I've ever played, and probably the most interesting game I've played in general. I really did enjoy the story, far surpassing that of the original or Whistleblower, and it only gets more horrific and terrifying as it continues! The various new environments in the Arizona wilderness are a refreshing change from the dank corridors of Mount Massive Asylum. Numerous mechanics have been added, such as crawling, swimming, hiding in barrels, a higher-res camera (equipped with a microphone and better night vision), bandages, stamina, wrestling away from smaller enemies, etc. The protagonist this time around is Blake Langermann, who must fight for his life while searching for his wife, Lynn, and suffer increasingly real hallucinations regarding a childhood friend, Jessica Grey. The villains are very creepy and well designed, and I struggle to choose a favorite. I love and recommend this game! ❤👍 130 out of 137 people found this helpful. I loved the first outlast and i love this one! The atmosphere is way different because you are in the woods and its a very different feel. Also the witch lady is crazy scary. Ya ive ruined a few pairs of underwear but its worth it! Amazing amazing game! Hope Red Barrels comes out with a DLC for it!! 136 out of 145 people found this helpful.

An absolute must have for survival horror fans. Thank you Red Barrels for this release. Another One 🔥 100 out of 107 people found this helpful. Best Horror Franchise Ever. Outlast 2 has mastered fear & suspense. Darkness and twisted visions of the macabre await the stalwart gamer. Your blood will run cold. The room you're in will feel like there is not enough air in it. Palms will sweat, muscles will tense. Those without the heart & stomach won't make it to the end. Those that do will have some lasting memories to say the least. some things cannot be unseen. Great writing & dialogue, darkly beautiful landscapes, adrenaline fueled & mind bending scenes. what more could a horror lover ask for? 110 out of 122 people found this helpful. The Terror is Back. Outlast is an awesome game so it's no surprise the second is just as good. They've upped the difficulty, the scares and the fun in this one. Added more ways to get around, changed the camera a bit, you can get tired now and above all, the suspense of what will happen next will keep you on the edge of your seat. If you love horror and survival games, you'll love this. 36 out of 37 people found this helpful. Just one problem. I can't get the stains out of my underwe. erhm. you get the picture. This game is a great sequel that has improved almost everything that made the orignal so scary. OL2 is a must buy for horror fans. 183 out of 202 people found this helpful. TOP TIER HORROR GAME. In a time where good horror games are few n far in between, Outlast 2 sets the bar for what the genre should be. Sound effects set an atmosphere n tone that sits with the best of them, games like Alien Isolation, Dead Space, Resident Evil 7. Solid graphics, not quite blockbuster status but pretty close, specially considering it's not a full price game which is awesome cause it's so rare that good quality games release without a $60 price tag. Gameplay does a good job keeping u on ur toes being u have no way to defend other then running n hiding while relying on batteries u find scattered n hidden for ur cameras' night vision to see in the dark which definitely adds to the tension. All in all if ur looking for a good scary game that's a change of pace from ur run of the mill shooter, then def pick up Outlast 2. Plenty of jump scares n gore to satisfy any horror junkies needs lol. If u haven't played part 1 that one's great too👌👌. get on it! 174 out of 192 people found this helpful. Def worth the wait. First Outlast blew my mind. Perfect mix of scares and adrenaline pumping scenes that kept me coming back for more. This game does not disappoint. Fully lives up to the hype. Developers stuck to a winning formula and seemed to improve on everything. Outlast 2 is scary as **** and worth every penny❤ 28 out of 29 people found this helpful. Exactly what it's suppose to be. Great new chapter in a long life of outlast, i hope. So much better than the first, visually and of course sound. Controls felt good to me, love the water and new ways too hide and run.

As fun as it was to play this game, it didn’t come without a few annoying elements here and there. Darkness in the game acts as its own entity and often times will frustrate the hell out of you, but the urge to dredge on will captivate you. The storyline is very creative and will keep you interested to the very end. To truly immerse yourself in the game, play it late at night in complete darkness. If you have surround sound, turn it up, I dare you. … Expand. More anxiety than Horror. In Outlast 2 you play as a cameraman working with your wife doing your investigative journalism thing, Outlast 2. More anxiety than Horror. In Outlast 2 you play as a cameraman working with your wife doing your investigative journalism thing, getting to the bottom of the possible murder of a pregnant woman. And then your helicopter crashes, you can’t find your wife, and you spend the rest of the game trying to find her… Outlast 2 is more open feeling than the claustrophobic original… While at the same time much more linear feeling. But I found it to be a lot more stressful… Instead of 4 hours, Outlast 2 clocks in at a little less than 7… Which felt to be a bit of a mistake. It feels like it drags on forever, mostly thanks to the games awful pacing… This is still la survival horror game, collect batteries for your camera, use that camera to record things and as a light source, collect bandages to heal yourself when you’re hurt and get through everything the game throws at you.. Hide under beds, and in barrels and lockers. But the game is missing those tense moments the original had… I feel outlast 2 throws way too many enemies at your way too often… This is where the pacing issue comes in. You never have down time, you never have time to soak in the environment and let it creep you out… because beyond the first chapter the game is throwing multiple enemies for you to deal with around every corner. and it isn’t tense or scary, it’s annoying. Getting through sections of the game is frustrating. You never feel like stealth is a real option. It never really feels like it works… Enemey detection is way too sensitive and I felt like they always knew where I was. and I felt like I had to trigger enemies, make them chase me, and run around the map to get past sections… And some points in the game you’re forced to deal with situations like this. and it just never stops, making the game feel like a chore, especially in the final few chapters.. The game is gorgeous though, and creepy. it’s full of jump scares and surprises, especially with the random transitions between your location in this religious cult and a catholic school… The game never becomes predictable. And is definitely worth seeing through to the end, I don’t want to set any expectations, but I’ll just say it’s better than the original outlasts ending. Outlast 2 has a lot going for it, as does the series in general. I just wish it stuck to the one enemy at a time formula the original had. it made moments tense. instead of throwing multiple enemies at you that you cant deal with and never letting you breathe… Again, I was more annoyed by outlast 2 than I was scared by it… The Demo was a more enjoyable experience for me than the actual game. I give Outlast 2. We will start with sneaking and investigating, during this phase you'll be sneaking around avoiding detection looking for clues and how to progress to the next area, these area's aren't terribly tense or scary, if you've played outlast 1 you know what to do, turn around, run far away, hide, let the dumb AI give up and try again, there will only be normal enemies during this part so it’s not terribly difficult, and because most of the enemies are redneck’s it’s not terribly scary either.

I can safely say that Outlast made me jump out of my chair more often in its four-hour descent into Hell than any other game ever has. It's a tense, brutal trek that strips you of any power to defend yourself as you try to avoid the deranged mental patients that roam the halls of this horrifyingly gorgeous world.You'll run, hide, and just generally be terrified as you discover the horrors that reside within Mount Massive Asylum. But in between the wealth of scares and beautiful environments, Outlast has a tendency to bog down via uninspired mission objectives and a few disappointing design choices. From the get-go, Outlast is one of the best-looking and sounding survival horror games to date. Everything from the dynamic lighting to a fantastic soundscape work together to keep you on edge every second of the experience. On both PC and PS4, I dreaded entering any new areas or opening any closed doors for fear of what lurked in the dark unknown. Little details that are often forgotten in games, like leaving a trail of bloody footprints after stepping through a pool of blood, really help sell the illusion that Mount Massive is an actual place. But for as great as the world looks, the character models are represented with a bit less fidelity. They're not bad per se, but certain enemies that appear terrifying from a distance lose quite a bit of their terror when viewed up-close. You'll also notice quite a bit of enemy repetition during the latter half of the campaign. That being said, you'll probably be too busy running away like a maniac to notice most of the time. You're ostensibly powerless in Outlast, meaning that your main tools for survival are running and hiding. Barreling down a hallway with a beast right on your heels, bursting through a series of doors when you have no idea what's on the other side, and eventually finding a closet to hide in and evade your pursuer provides a fantastic and terrifying thrill. And once enemies begin tearing apart rooms and opening closets in search of you – yep, you can imagine just how nerve-wracking this game gets. Your guardian angel in Outlast comes in the form of a camera with a night-vision setting. Much of the asylum is bathed in darkness, so you'll be viewing a lot of the world through a bright-green lens. This helps create a great sense of tension, which is heightened by the fact that the camera runs on batteries that need to be found throughout the environment. Outlast forces you to be conservative with your resources, as running out of juice in a particularly dark area forced me to have to reload a prior save file and replay a good chunk of a level. This punishment seemed severe at the time, but ultimately acted as a lesson in how careful planning was essential in order to survive in this world. Where Outlast bogs down a bit is when it tries to shoehorn typical game design elements into the horror experience. Slowly making your way through a dank basement crawling with enemies is great – but having to activate three generators in order to restore power to the area? Not so much. While I'm not against the "find three things" structure of many games, its place in Outlast had a tendency to momentarily pull me out of the experience and squash tension. Also, the fact that your character has no way of defending himself means that if you're discovered and cornered by one of your pursuers, you're probably going to have to restart that section. I found myself dying in specific encounters multiple times until I memorized the level layout and enemy patterns. That's not terribly out of the ordinary for a stealth game, but Outlast's strength is in its well-paced horror, and repetition dulls that power. Instead of being terrified, I was simply annoyed that I had to keep dying in order to figure out how to solve certain environmental puzzles. Thankfully these moments were far outnumbered by long stretches of tense, satisfying exploration which rewards you with a well-written and unsettling story. Diligent searching reveals numerous notes and diaries that help flesh out tragic tales of mental patients tortured by villainous scientists, and that provides a surprising bit of heart to this bloody tale. It's also one of those horror games that works both when you're playing it alone in the dark, as well as having a group of people gather around the television and experience the scares together. Outlast can stand proudly as a unique and terrifying survival horror game. Unlike many modern horror games, it remembers that the most frightening monsters are those that you can't kill, but have to flee from, and it creates an outstandingly creepy atmosphere that rendered me defenseless against its many well-paced jump scares. Annoying design choices and forced moments of repetition have a bad habit of spoiling the mood, but between them is an experience that's scary as all hell. Outlast stands proudly as a unique and terrifying survival horror game. Scary as hell Amazing setting Interesting story Repetitious Underwhelming character design. © 1996-2018 Ziff Davis, LLC.
