    This game did not feel like a sequel to me and that's kind of my favorite thing about it but also what annoyed me the most.

    The atmosphere of the game is well-crafted, creating a tense and frightening environment that pulls players in. The gameplay is also noteworthy, providing a satisfying and engaging experience. Based on my positive experience with the game, I recommend it to others who enjoy horror games.

    Ahhhh Outlast 2, i have so much good memories from this game.
    First of all this is a really well designed horror game. It will make you scared. (normally)
    I can understand why some people didn't like the game because it's full of "scripts" and it seems like you are just running away from start to finish unlike the first Outlast where the levels was less wide open. But ambiance, the    Ahhhh Outlast 2, i have so much good memories from this game.

    O que dizer dessa obra prima? Um dos melhores jogos de terror que já joguei, se não o melhor! Tem um clima bastante pesado que eu acho muito difícil fazerem um jogo assim nos dias atuais, muita gente reclama que não tem armas e não da pra bater mas o jogo só é assustador justamente por causa disso, sua única opção é fugir e se esconder!

    Not as scary as the first game but still very intense and terrifying. Better graphics, music and they also added some new gameplay mechanics. Also the story is better.

    Es bueno, tienen claro que en outlast 1 la distorsión de imagen por oscuridad se tenia que arreglar y se hizo, tiene algunos bugs los cuales son de movimiento y de forma de accesar a algunas áreas.
    Sí da sustos y pone al jugador en modo supervivencia.

    It wasn't as interesting as the first game, but was still a good game. Best horror game released in 2017.

    Outlast 2 is an entertaining thrill ride that is linear and easy to follow, granted you don't get turned around through a few doors or past some trees. After three complete play throughs and several back and forths to find collectibles that I missed, I can firmly recommend this adventure. If you liked Silent Hill, Resident Evil, FEAR or other similar games, I believe you will enjoy thisOutlast 2 is an entertaining thrill ride that is linear and easy to follow, granted you don't get turned around through a few doors or past some trees. After three complete play throughs and several back and forths to find collectibles that I missed, I can firmly recommend this adventure. If you liked Silent Hill, Resident Evil, FEAR or other similar games, I believe you will enjoy this game. However, in Outlast 2, you have no weapons. You have to run, hide, or die. Enjoy!

    In comparing as a sequel, it seems inappropriate. Outlast 2 has a very different feel than the first Outlast release. The sense of urgency isn't quite the same, leaving me wondering why is he not more panicked, considering his predicament. I understood what was going on relatively quickly, but the story was still well told. The protagonist seemed relaxed and more like a curious detective at times, while other times it felt perfectly preformed.

    Outlast 2 pulls you in most of the time and you can enjoy the sensation it brings, but I do feel like Outlast 1 was more immersive.    … Expand

    First I thought I couldn't cope with the stress this game brought me. Then I realized that the adrenaline pump was giving me a boost to keep it up and get addicted to it.

    Outlast 2 has a fascinating story about religious extremism and how it can misrepresent an entire faith. Sadly, this is bogged down by some unpolished gameplay which can feel inconsistent and fails to guide the player along an intended path at times, making it feel like trial and error. That's not to say it's terrible though, as it can still carry some good tension and dread at times.

    Ten points just because of Jessica. And since the game is not bad, however, the short storyline, and a lot of running around from all sorts of idiots, it is very annoying, but the graphic part with the storyline in the school is chic.

    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. In my opinion this game is done unbelievably well like it's first ones. I love the Atmosphere, the soundtrack (including the ambiance), the graphics and the characters. The school parts are also very nervbreaking at some point, because of this claustrophobic feeling, which I really appreciated in the first Outlast games. This game although features a complete different environment, which is open. That means, a complete opposite from the first games, but it's still managing making in a frightening experience for me at least. Many players were complaining about the AI, many chases, even the story and the ending. I honestly can understand the critical voices among the players. Dear Red Barrels I just wanted to make up some thing clear. The chases didn't make the first Outlast so famous. It was the Atmosphere and the cool characters, such as Fatty, Eddie Gluskin (my absolute favourite character), the Walrider, Father Martin, Miles Upshur, Waylon Park, Jeremy Blaire and so on and so on. In Outlast 2 there are honestly not so many memorable characters. I mean Marta is very scary at many points, but Nick and Laird really wanted me to punch my screen. The school demon was the most scary thing I saw in a horror game in my opinion. Also I very liked Papa Knoth and would have wished giving him more screen time, because he is a very intersting character. Unlike some other people I didn't have any problems with the brightness. I mean come on, a forest at night, of course it will be dark. The story of this game or let's say the lore, is what makes you as player proceed and motivated to play 'till the very end. The whole mix between illusion and reality was a thing in Outlast 2 which I really appreciated. Deep beyond the surface of Outlast 2 is a very sad story which is mixed with the events happening in the main game. The more we proceed the worse the issusions in the school get and the more we uncover the dark truth and traumatization which Blake (the main protagonist) had to face, when he was a little boy in the christian school. Personally I liked the religion based topic in the Outlast series, but I would have wished a more obvious connection with the Murkoff Corperation (if you ain't ignorant you will see realize that Murkoff is playing a major role on the brainwashing of the villagers and Blake. So in a nutshell, Outlast 2 in my opinion is a worthful sequel to the first Outlast (2013) and I definetly recommend playing this game. It will give you nightmares.… Expand

    A faltering sequel that borrows even more liberally from well-worn horror tropes than its predecessor, Outlast 2 ends up a middling entry despite its high production values and some shining moments of found footage fright.

    Red Barrels built the sequel on the tried more of the same principle, but this is by far is not the worst problem of the second installment.

    Instead of the standard entertainment, we received unnecessarily over-combined horror game with atmosphere incomparable to the original one. [Issue#275]
