Outlast 2 teaser

[Lazoriss]

I actually really like Outlast and its DLC, and am pretty hyped over there being a sequel. A lot of people compare Outlast to the Amnesia games due to the no combat / pursuit based gameplay, but they're quite different in story/tone/art direction/ect. I actually initially passed up Outlast for Pigs, but looking back, prefer Outlast overall. TDD will always have a special place in the darkest corner of my heart, though. Nothing could have prepared me for the absolute terror I felt on my initial play-through of TDD.

(Although Outlast is VERY showy with its gore and incredibly dark themes, which could turn a lot of people away. I think AmfP was originally going to be gory/dark as well, based on the concept art.)

A moment of silence for Googolplex, who showed his true colors in a sudden but swift strike of bigotry and intolerance. We'll always remember you as the guy who shared obscure (but sometimes cool) game trailers on this forum.

Eight years of devotion to these forums and thousands of posts, and all it apparently takes is a strong opinion to get banned. This is why I fear internet forums in general. I've been banned from just about every forum I've attended. It's inevitable in the long run. I was banned from a taoist forum for "being a rapist", because I said the word "rape" and a mod couldn't read English, I guess. I was banned from another forum for complaining about how Indian phone salesmen gave India a bad name, because somehow talking about the shortcomings of India was "racist".

Rest in peace, Googolplex. I hardly knew you, and I'm a strong atheist, but in my world your opinions and beliefs has the right to exist.

I don't think that was all it took https://www.frictionalgames.com/forum/th...#pid331966

You won't be banned for having a strong interest and devotion to certain topics. By that logic, every member of the forum would be banned.

Just don't do a "I'm right and everything you say is wrong (unless I agree)" approach. Googol didn't always do this - but in some instances, did - even after several warnings.

Oh. Thank you for clearing that up. I tried to figure out why he was banned, but all I could go by was his own posting history, of which I only read his five latest posts.

In other words, do not be a complete hypocrite.

I really think Outlast needs to step up their game in terms of cliches. Like I know jumpscares can be effective if used SPARINGLY (P.T.) but I counted 5-6 jumpscares in the past 3 hours of gameplay.

Also QTE seem to be overused too.

I don't remember either of that, but it was awhile ago since I watched it on YouTube.

...but as for the trailer, this is basically just saying "we're making a sequel". If the satanic premise is supposed to get people excited, they're wrong. It doesn't even fit the theme. ...but maybe that's just the setting, I dunno. This topic lacks substance.

I wanted to play/watch outlast for the setting (insane asylum, although cliche, is still a fun idea) and aesthetics. I hope they don't go too crazy with this. Also idk when you came back because my visits are sparing, but glad to see you Cranky
