The mystery around the murder gets more convoluted as Blake makes his way back to Lynn. Outlast II remains true to their formula of fearing the dark while being surrounded by maniacs. Keeping that in mind, Outlast II depicts visceral imagery including nudity, torture, violent murder, and infanticide. That is the extent of inventory management.īandages were less of a priority even on the lowest difficulty, because if the locals find Blake, it is usually a short, disorienting, violent encounter that bandages would not help with.
When in the inventory, Blake can check his left or right pockets to see how many batteries and bandages he has. The inventory system is simple as Blake has only two resources to manage. It is a shame to have to play most of the game in green-lit night vision with the other choice being to see nothing at all.
#OUTLAST 2 GAME RATING FULL#
This does get a bit frustrating as the areas are well done and the character designs are amazing in full color. Light sources do not cast far from their source. Picking up any batteries found is of the utmost importance because even with the Gamma turned up all the way, the game is still dark, with most of the areas being pitch black. Using it for normal recording does not drain the batteries although using the night vison and microphone features will. Blake’s only tool in the game is the camcorder. Insane gives one life, no saves, no checkpoints, and asks, “Are you ready to suffer?” The game is linear which helps during the times when the camera runs out of batteries. It has four difficulties, Normal, Hard, Nightmare and Insane. There are few quick time events that make him seem capable of anything else. Outlast II follows the same gameplay as the first installment, Blake has the option to run, hide, or die. All while being hunted by a pickaxe wielding fanatic that turns up at the worst of times. The other cult seems to be Matriarchal and it is difficult to discern which faction Blake finds himself among at any given time while searching for Lynn.Īlthough Blake and Lynn are reunited early in the campaign, they are quickly separated once again leaving Blake on a frantic search to find her before the morning ceremony starring Lynn. His views toward children and newborns would be considered taboo and seems to have spawned a new cult that is at odds with Father Knoth. The center of the mystery seems to be a cult led by Father Knoth. The camera also has a directional microphone that will point out enemy locations. This is one of the tamer deaths that Blake will witness in the campaign while being a clever throwback to the first murder scene found in the original Outlast.īlake makes his way through the darkness using the night vision on his camcorder, aside from this feature, Blake will record relevant events that will be stored on the camera. While searching the crash for Lynn, he finds her gone and the helicopter pilot burned at the stake.
While doing a test intro to the expose’ the helicopter loses power and crashes.īlake comes to, finding himself thrown from the crash site. Visions of their old school will come back to haunt Blake throughout the campaign.
Lynn wakes Blake up during the ride because he was talking in his sleep and mentioning the name, Jessica.īlake assures Lynn that he was dreaming of a girl they both new from Catholic school many years ago. Outlast II opens with the investigative reporter team of Blake and Lynn Langerman flying to a remote area in rural Arizona to do an expose’ on the recent murder of a local pregnant woman.
