But don’t worry, there is sufficient desecration of body parts in this game to keep you awake for at least a day. It’s just that that makes the game more terrifying.
At most they will just whack you like in any other game, not quarter you or pull your nails out, and no I’m not crazy or in need of professional help. But here, they are normal people, well not exactly NORMAL, but still they are PEOPLE, albeit with messed up beliefs. I mean, in the first game the player knew that he/she was in an asylum and even the minions could be dangerous sociopaths, who might just rip your your balls out if they felt a bit too playful. Now, all the “special” enemies are pretty perturbing but its the regular ones that aren’t scary after a while. This time around you are stranded in a secluded village, located somewhere in the canyons of Arizona, home to a cult of heretics lead by Sullivan Knoth, who for some reason thinks “the end of times” is near, and people do all kinds of crazy when they think the apocalypse is coming, and that’s precisely what Sullivan’s followers do.Īll those hands must be really… handy, huh. The first and foremost being the setting. Outlast 2 is different from its predecessor in many aspects, most of them good. Now, Outlast 2 is out, with the devs promising to take away your sanity (in case the first game didn’t do it). While the horror elements were good enough, it just got really predictable and tedious after a while. Outlast has excellent horror elements with a pinch of psychologically disturbing content, but it suffered from poor mission design, with most objectives involving searching for keys, fuses and all sorts of trinkets. It doesn’t get any better than that now does it? Well, actually it does.

The PC is stuck in a mental facility, full of deranged psychotics eager to rip his limbs off just for fun. It is definitely one of the scariest games of the decade. Whenever horror based games are discussed, Red Barrels’ Outlast almost certainly comes up.
