    the game is not perfect but i really enjoyed my time with it. Great survival horror if you liked the first one there is no reason to not like this one too. I played on the nightmatre difficulty and loved the challenge that offered. Cheers

    Хороший ужастик с красивой графикой и интересным сюжетом! Сюжет с первого раза и не поймешь!

    Fantastic game. Oulast 2 is better in every way of the first excellent game. Great graphics, fantastic atmosphere, wonderfull locations and exellent gameplay. I dont understant very negative reviews of some people. Red barrels is very talented studio and this is the proof. I hope for another game of the same quality in the future. A must buy

    An excellent sequel to the original Outlast. More hiding mechanics and increased maneuverability make things much more intense, and the scares are plenty and constant.
    While figuring out where to go or how to progress could be difficult at times, I still had an absolute blast playing this.
    Definitely one of my favorite games to come out this year

    Outlast 2 is one of the most intense games produced. It just doesn't rely on jumpscare alone but also put alot of great chases which are pretty solid elements of a horror game.

    But for the experience alone, the game is a solid 10, With great intense chases, very unique jumpscares + with very good psychological aspects to it + with all new polished graphics. Overall very good game.    … Expand

    Outlast 2 brings back the great horror from the first one, improving on the gameplay. The sounds are amazingly handled and the graphics, despite using Unreal Engine 3, look very good.

    The gameplay can get a bit repetitive over time as there are many chase sequences throughout the game. I heard that the other difficulty levels, aside from "Normal", are broken leading to some bugs that    Outlast 2 brings back the great horror from the first one, improving on the gameplay.

    The gameplay can get a bit repetitive over time as there are many chase sequences throughout the game. I heard that the other difficulty levels, aside from "Normal", are broken leading to some bugs that broke the experience for some.

    The story is amazingly detailed but the delivery was very weak, since most of the plot makes sense if you read the notes that give some background information. Looking at the story in its entirety, it is way better and more interesting than the first one and definitely one of the best stories from a horror game.

    Overall, the game is amazing, the tension it builds is great, there is no place where you can feel safe. Considering that this game was made by an Indie developer and it's price ($30), this is a game is worth buying.    … Expand

    Не смотря на негативные оценки к это игре, мне игра ОЧЕНЬ понравилась, она на много атмосфернее первой части, а мир очень красивый и проработанный и детализованный. Жду сюжетных DLC.

    A Red Barrels fez um excelente trabalho com a jogabilidade e o terror psicológico, porém faltou um esclarecimento da história que está confusa, uma DLC não seria mau para fazer isso. Mas tirando isso nada a reclamar.

    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.

    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.

    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!

    The first impression of the game are the same as on the demo. Everything is cool, and nothing is clear. The story is so twisted that after the passage I had to look to other theories and making guess youtubers. But Red Barrels, you sick freaks.

You can really call it next-gene now. And scripted-scenes become much better here than in the first part. However, if you are so rich company Red Barrels, why you did`nt buy motion-cap technology? Innovation. The new system of capture notes just amazing, for that respect to you. Now you really feel like a journalist. The same feeling about the note. Now you can go to the main menu and view the records. As a result, after the walktrough of this game I have a good impression. I recommend for purchase, and hey, Red Barrels, make DSL or continue to learn more about the story. Before, I did`nt use to like you, Red Barrels, but now I`m your quite a big fan.… Expand

    This game is really good except for a few problems holding it back (mostly trial and error gameplay). The story is good however to understand it you have to really dig into the story. It made me jump several times. Overall it is a good sequel to the first Outlast.

    Great, scary, simple, everything you could possibly expect in a horror game. Outlast 2 excels at scary but the story is strangely put together and might take you awhile to straighten out what is going on but Outlast 2 defines the horror genre with this stunning chapter to the Outlast series!

    This game is the same as first Outlast, but now on the nature. And in the school. More screamers, religion and mysteries. After this game, I have a some questions, so I hope on the DLC.

    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]
