Outlast 2 (2017 Video Game)
10/10
Under-appreciated masterpiece
10 October 2021
I played this game for the first time a long time ago, I hated it and left me disappointed, maybe because it didn't live up with the first game. But now I got the chance to play it again, and now I understand it.

Outlast II is a bloody, gory, controversial, messed up and disturbed work of pure art. Very effortlessly, Red Barrels just have the power of horror to create a masterful horror story. Of course the story in the first Outlast is better, the characters at some point are better, but that's not the point.

The story writing was incredible, extremely complex and very mature in both storytelling and narrative design. The soundtrack and the sound effects added more to the experience its eerie aesthetics. The setting is on point, both Temple Gate and the School locations are amazingly designed. The graphics and the visuals are insane, these graphics are basically one of the best things I've ever seen in a video game, truly impressive and visually stunning.

Overall, Outlast II is not for everyone. If you're looking for fun stuff this may not be for you. This game will make you terrorized, stressed out, weirded out, disturbed and maybe traumatized.

Unforgettable experience, Highly recommended 100%.
