Outlast 2

Let my Nephew play the first one,
right up until the first body drops from the ceiling..............controller flew across the room!
 
I found the first one to be so over rated, it was fine, but not great and after an hour or so all the horror was gone as it was just badly done imo and the enemies/a.i was just easy to cheese and not have to worry about

I will look in to 2 as I liked some elements of the first one, mainly the visuals and sound
 
So far I find it nowhere near as scary as the first game. There's too much getting chased with no clear idea where to go. Expect to die in this game. A lot!

Its not terrible, but I would recommend holding off till its come down in price a bit, unless your a mega fan of the franchise.
 
I will play it at some point but Joe did confirm everything i thought it would be. Games like this heavily rely on the AI and when its a bit crap then well the games just junk tbh. Looks like the school bits are the best bits aswell tbh.
 
I've had a bit more time to play the game tonight. Made it to chapter 4 so far. I still don't think its a bad game, but it does seem to be nothing more than a long sequence of jump scares and chase sequences. Its very thin on story.

And the school bits are definitely some of the spookiest parts. They could have made a game focusing on JUST the school and that whole story and it probably would have been a better game.
 
From watching Angry Joe streaming this live it just seems like all you do is get chased, run to a door and try the handle. Die. Start again, get chased, run to the window and try open. Die. Get chased, run try something else and repeat until you find a way through. Its insta kill if you can't find a way.

It does have some good jump scares though.

Angry Joe hit the nail on the head
 
So just finished the game...

Now I see why Angry Joe meant about the ending. I mean what was that?! Lynn has the baby and dies, the priest slits him own throat and we take our possible anti-Christ baby away? The end?!

SERIOUSLY?!
 
No where near as good as the first, the constant chase bits where it's just trial and error became extremely tedious and ruined any kind of horror element about it. Still not a bad game but nothing on the first
