    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.

    I enjoyed it very much and I think the game devs made a really good game to get really scared!

    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.

    It was spooky and horror but needed more gameplay. The overal atmosphere was good and needed more puzzles.

    grafikler güzel ama oynanış çok değişmemiş ayrıca ilk oyundaki sürekli gergin atmosferi aşırı kaçırmışlar ve korkuçluk saviyesi azalmış yine oynamama rağmen gidip steamden satın aldım.

    Simply put, this is a worse Outlast than the first one. It’s confusing, boring and repetitive. A 6 hours gameplay of running, hiding, healing yourself with bandages and "reloading" the camera with batteries. Add an hour for reading notes if you care. On top of that, it ends itself with a more confusing and a stupid ending too. Perfect. Besides, for me personally, I wanted to see theSimply put, this is a worse Outlast than the first one.

On top of that, it ends itself with a more confusing and a stupid ending too. Perfect. Besides, for me personally, I wanted to see the developers bring more into Outlast than just a new, un-inspiring, confusing and bland story. The game still does not have combat, no way to dodge or block attacks. You have to run and hide. Most of the time you die or get hit randomly. No weapons of any sort either. The game contains a good setting and an atmosphere for a horror game, but it lacks variety in that aspect as well. Disappointed to say the least. If you are looking for a better Outlast, you’ve got the first one and its DLC. If you are looking for a pretty good survival horror game, you have Resident Evil 7. Thanks for reading!… Expand

    Defalarca ölüp en mükemmel şekilde hedefe ulaştığınızda geçebiliyorsunuz. Korku öğelerini full jumpscare adayıp, oyunu da uzattıkça uzatmışlar.

    First of all this is a really well designed horror game. It will make you scared. (normally)

    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!

    Honestly after a few hours I had to get a refund while I could. And honestly what I got to complain about is what everyone else did who disliked the game too.Honestly after a few hours I had to get a refund while I could.

    At first I thought it was a good game, but when I played it, I discovered that it was just a repetition, just run and hide, and the gameplay is rather boring

    Игра вообще не страшная, атмосферы нет. Совсем не то, чего можно ожидать от продолжения такого замечательного хоррора.

    RUN !

    A game is all about running!
    I played the first one twice and it was so damn scary + less frustrating.
    After 6 hours of playing I decided to stop because it was not scary anymore, only frustrating!!
    Also the story isn't that compelling .. I don't usually leave a game unfinished but life is too short to spend it on a frustrating running away game.

    Good horror at the beginning. the game is already scary at the very beginning, towards the middle the game becomes "run and hide" optimization is normal, the game design is amazing

    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.

    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]
