But I didn’t find this one to be that scary. I absolutely loved the atmosphere, combined with the gorgeous lighting and graphics, and the story.
The ultimate question on everyone’s lips is of course whether this is a worthy sequel or not? It is a decent follow-up, but it isn’t as good as the first one. The whole Cultist storyline was more than interesting enough on it’s own. I would have enjoyed the game more if the current day story line wouldn’t have been interrupted all the time by the school sequences. But for me it didn’t work as well as the developers had probably hoped. It is clear that Blake is also losing his mind and combining these two stories seems to address some interesting topics like guilt, shame, trauma and ultimately redemption. Part of this is due to the fact that the basic narrative is interwoven with sequences where Blake is reliving is childhood at a Catholic school and an incident that happened with his girlfriend Jessica and a priest called Loutermilch. But even then, the ending might confuse the hell out of everyone and it is really open to interpretation.
#Where does outlast 2 take place full#
This link is very well hidden however, and to get a full grasp on the story you’ll really need to read all the documents and rewatch all your recordings. The reason why everybody seems completely insane seems to be related to the Murkoff Corporation, so there is a link to the first Outlast game. It does however get better when you reach the blood soaked third part where you meet the Heretics, a group that’s at war with Knoth’s cult and who wish to hasten the Apocalypse. This part is the most fascinating and scary one, as it also features the most fearsome enemy you’ll face: the pickaxe wielding Martha.The second part, where you come in contact with the Scalled, diseased outcasts who live isolated in the forest, is noticeably weaker than the rest of the game. The first part takes place in the town Temple Gate where you have to escape from the followers of “Papa” Sullivan Knoth, who believe Lynn is pregnant with the Anti-Christ. The game can be divided into three parts.
