Thread 717355559

Still mogs every horror game 11 years later. How did they do it? Not only the MG, but the DLC also managed to be as interesting and iconic as the main storty

>>717355559 (OP)
The Whistleblower and Dead Space 2's DLC are like the few times I think DLC is better than the main game.
And they did it because it was interesting. I actually cared about picking up files and learning the lore. A lot of horror games just have fluff background info but I genuinely enjoyed the backstory to this game

>>717355559 (OP)
>MG
What the fuck is a MG? Are you writing a tweet?

>friction-like hide and seek horror
yeah ok buddy

>>717356854
MG=Main Game

>>717355559 (OP)
1 + Whistleblower are genuinely great. It's a shame they dropped the ball on Outlast 2. Not that it was bad, exactly, it's just not scary at all.

>>717355559 (OP)
Alien Isolation was the last good horror game. It's not entirely a closet simulator like Outlast. The Evil Within was alright, too.

>>717355559 (OP)
this game has a penis in it
that's why you like it so much
you like to look at mens' peckers
OP LIKES TO LOOK AT MENS' PECKERS!!

Outlast Trials is pure kino.

This is 8.5/10 easily, but the last 3-4 hours of the game feel like the developers said "we have all these unused ideas, let's cram them in" and as a result, every replay feels like a slog once I hot the 85% mark

Outlast ruined all horror games for far too long, fuck any horror game where you're not at least given the option to fight back

No lore

>>717360120
I bet youre one of those faggots who are either into 2d or maskot horror game

>>717360221
nah, I'm more about Dead Space type of horror. The only game to truly grip me and have my nuts in my throat

>>717360317
Dead space is an action game not a horror game.

A better question is how did they manage to fuck it all up so hard with Outlast 2

>>717358168
All the naked men in Outlast are baras. We need a twink Outlast

>>717361368
This, and not a good one either. Like if RE4 or RE5 was convinced they were actually scaring anyone and taking themselves seriously.

>every
The Bunker is better in every way

>>717355559 (OP)
>that part outside the asylum with the storm and lightning and shit and you can see shit and there's shit crawling in the dark

yeah I'm reinstalling
wish it got more batteries laying around because I was continually running out

>>717356980
Enough about your life though

>>717355559 (OP)
Cliched halloween haunted house kinda. I mean the Penumbra devs had already been making Penumbras and Amnesia is still the only real helpless bitch game that works

>>717358276
Unironically the best co op horror game

Soma is the best spooky walking simulator of all time.

I like the concept of Outlast 1 + 2 but the actual games are awful to play.
That said, I am excited to see Outlast 3 when Red Barrels finally decides to stop milking the live service meme and get back to making real games.

by not putting fucking puzzles in it its not hard

>>717362171
The Bunker is a real video game and not just a glorified walking sim which is why it got no love. It's actually so fucking good.

>>717355559 (OP)
Eddie Gluskin was too sexy, how is that supposed to scare you?

>>717363373
I hate Outlast Trials man. Cooperative shit took all the isolation horror feeling from it. If theres no one to play with you, its too hard to solve the puzzles and if you play with someone... is no longer horror

>>717363829
It's fun when you start with people at the same time but if you arrived like a few hours late you are already left behind while the pros do all the work.
They should make an offline option since the villains are amazing

>>717363448
?

You spend the whole game hiding from the monster lmao. You get some measly revolver and grenades yo scare away rats and that’s it. It’s a hide and seek simulator.

>>717364363
You didn't play it properly.

I'm surprised they haven't made a remake yet when other horror games are getting one, pretty sure the DLC being longer and combined with the main game would be cool

>>717364461
>>717364461
its stills holds up. No need for a remake

>>717363448
its too scary

>>717355559 (OP)
I didn't care for it, the DLC is pretty interesting tho.

The problem with Outlast is that the entire game looks like the same copypasted environments. You can really tell that it was a small indie title despite the high fidelity.
Outlast 2 is better in this regard but that game has its own problems.

>>717365576
Outlast 2 is too confusing. Too much theories and especulations and almost none of them make sense. How the hell did the mc wife got 9months pregnant that easily? What the hell happened to the mc at the end? What was the white light that fucks everything up? Outlast 1 and whistleblower had a complex lore, but it was considerably easier to get

>>717358276
It really is
The first event I played was the escape event and it was really fun

>>717365816
It's been a while but IIRC there is a signal tower that emits a frequency that makes everyone hallucination and go crazy
The signal tower is owned by Murkoff
Any weird/unlikely events are probably hallucinations

>>717365816
>>717366110
Also the village has a rampant syphilis problem that isn't helping

>>717355559 (OP)
an they turned it in to an always online multiplayer game to sell you skins

>>717366359
Yes. That was actually one of the easiest part to deduce by the npcs mumbling and isolation. Ironically, that was one of my favorite parts in the game.

>>717356854
MG = Mesugaki ToT

AYEEEEEEEE!!!!

>>717355684
>dead space 2 dlc
holy fuck, how did I never even hear of this? I only thought there were stupid weapon and suit packs

>>717368615
Because it's fucking locked to consoles. That's why I keep my old 360 around.
