Helpless Victim Simulator

Helpless victim simulator doesn't make it a good Horror game. Navigating through the dark with a camera's nightvision and occasional scare jumps doesn't make it a good Horror game either. Being unarmed, helpless victim doesn't make it a good game at all. It only makes it a frustrating experience overall. Protagonist can't take a single bat in order to defend himself. Games like this need weapons, and with an atmosphere like this it could build up the tension to add more to the overall experience. Add to that limited ammo resources, and that would make things a lot more engaging. Playing game for hours with a camera in the hand is so boring. Oh, but the environment provides a plenty of the batteries specifically for the protagonist's camera model. How convenient. Games like The Suffering, The Suffering - Ties That Bind and Half-Life allow the use of weapons, and do not lose quality horror experience. Heck, The Whistleblower DLC has a ghost as the enemy, which insta-killed me. Developers should know by now that ghost that are not of solid matter should not be featured in games like these. Especially if they insta-kill the player. It is a game over. There is no win against such types of the enemies. No storyline can justify it. It totally breaks the immersion to have an enemy like that in a Horror game, where the protagonist enters experimental laboratories and similar facilites. This is not the ARPG like Titan Quest - Anniversary Edition, Grim Dawn or Torchlight, where a ghost is nothing more than another enemy type. And no, playing it with the lights switched off, being alone in a room, and with the headphones on doesn't make it any better. Avoid it. Try out The Suffering, The Suffering - Ties That Bind and Half-Life instead. Those are the real Horror games.

Excellent Horror

This game is highly recommended by a gamer like myself, tired of today's mainstream-focused "Horror" games (Dead Space etc). First of all. YOU CAN SEE YOUR FEET. This adds an amazing feel the First-Person style of games that I personally wish more games would have. It makes you feel as you're in the game yourself, this is a very important point in horror. Placing you in the uncomfortable situations that occur. Secondly, It's linear. I like it. Today a lot of games feel the need to have "many options" in the way a game progresses, but I often feel they lose focus / track. Since this is a linear storydriven horror game, you never feel lost for too long before you're on the right path. Third: No weapons. This in itself adds to a tremendous feeling of being alone and helpless in the midst of the craziness that endures around you, no spoilers, though. :) - TLDR; If you like horror games that actually can 100% be classified as HORROR, you are going to WANT to play this game. Get going! I Heartily recommend it.

Great horror game with flaws

Outlast is a first-person 3D game. Your goal is to escape from some creepy Asylum, where some experiments on patients have gone very wrong... You cannot fight in this game, you only have a camcorder with nightvision. The gameplay is thus about running and hiding from opponents, most of the time. Occassionally you need to solve simple puzzles like picking up keys etc. Graphics and sound are excellent, all in all it really makes you feel completely helpless in most situations, an effect that works particularly well at the beginning. The game overall runs stable and the ending has a nice surprise, in that regard reminding me of many horror movies. After the praise I should mention the game has some major downsides, however. The first and probably biggest problem is that the gameplay is too repetitive. Just running away from opponents is too little, I miss sophisticated puzzles or RPG elements, as in old classics like Waxworks- this mixes up the gameplay a little. The second minor issue is that the game lacks some obvious improvements, e.g. there could be more characters along the way, especially female characters seem entirely amiss.

Outdicks

Here's the thing: I preordered both Outlast and the last Amnesia and i was expecting Outlast to be mediocre at best ... i've never been so wrong. This game pretty much follows the example of Amnesia/Penumbra but adding the touch of experiencing things with a camera and the nightvision, nothing really outstanding but really enjoyable, great graphics and amazing sounds, Outlast is definitely worth a shot if you're into Horror/Adventure games p.s. : this game has way too many dicks

Amazing Game, don't buy the DLC

I love the horror genre. But not every game is gonna get me at all. I'm not exactly "looking" to get scared. But I love the horror genre for games like this, where the atmosphere is enthralling, where the music is phenomenal, and you ease into a world where anything can happen. ANYTHING. Then the scare aspect is when something legitimately freaks me the f*ck out, not just something like FNAF where the entire game relies on jumpscares. Anyways, this is one of those games that is well thought out. You know those horror movie cliches where the person doesn't run to the front door and leave the house and avoid a confrontation? Well this game addresses that. As soon as the main character finds some messed up sh*t he tries to leave ASAP. This kind of stuff stands out to me and really puts you into the world. As for whether you should buy it, yeah you should. It's the kind of game you play all night for 6 hours straight, turn off all the lights in your basement, plug in a controller for maximum comfort, put in headphones, and have a fun, and more importantly memorable time. Some say it gets a bit weak in the middle, but the ending/climax is very damn good. PS: Don't get the DLC. With both horror movies and games, there's a trend that I'll always notice. There's movies and games that are legitimately scary (Halloween, Alien Isolation), and there's movies and games that think by putting a lot of gore will somehow make it scary (Evil Dead Remake, The Evil Within). While the base game Outlast balanced these two subgenres perfectly, the Whistleblower DLC goes full on gorefest. Not my taste. Yes, Gore can add to the horror aspect, but it's not a substitute. Also it's repetitive as f*ck.
