Not scary at all, just irritating

The most overrated horror game I ever played. From "hide and seek" subgenre, even Clock Tower (1993, SNES game) was much, much scarier than Outlast - random, trial and error running simulator with stupid Quake II-looking enemies. Better go to the basement with your camera, it is more frightening and for free. If this is how modern horror game looks like, please take me back to 90s/2000s when Silent Hill (1-3), Fatal Frame (1-4), Forbidden Siren (1-2) appeared and were appreciated - it's not nostalgia, some of them I finished recently for the first time. If you want to play FPP horror, take any Frictional Games title like Amnesia, SOMA or Penumbra, Condemned is also not bad. From 2019 Resident Evil 2 Remake is pretty good. Outlast is maybe scary for children and people who never play any good horror videogame (no, Dead Space and F.E.A.R are not horror games - they're just action shooters).

Regading Linux

Works perfect on Fedora. To install download the .sh and open a terminal once it finishes. Cd to where the file is located and type sudo chmod 777 filename to change the permissions of the .sh file so you can install. To install type ./filename and it should go straight thru. HIS GAME THO. Everyone says its scary, everyone also says Paranormal Activity is scary. I watch and play lots of horror and scary to me is like spooky or eerie. This game actually scares me without being basic, the setting and sound visuals as well are all so good. Took a break to write this review really. Got me quaking in my boots. TLDR, works on Linux, great horror game. Play with headphones on for a truly immersive experience

Be scared

I play this games years late but it doesn't matter. It's one of the games where you die over and over again. Did you miss a clue? A pathway? No matter, you will die. The atmosphere is well done. Without revealing too much, your cam corder is the device with what you will see the world around you. So far, i can say that even though in theory the game is short, you will be stuck for a long time. The term to get stabbed in the back, got a new meaning with this game. Even though i bought this game when it was on sale, i would not regret buying it when not. I can wholeheartily recommend the game to anyone who likes scary games with a lot of jump scares. 10 years later, it's still a terrifying game.

Lost steam as it went but wasn't bad.

This is a game you'll either love or find tedious, and that'll depend on how much the game breaks your immersion with its slow transition away from stealth to outright evasion as you attempt to figure out where to go. Outlast IS an unsettling game for its short length, selling itself on its atmosphere and tension carried out by its audio and model work. It's first two hours really selling the asylum and those caged there without taking away from the scares. Its later half is where its more middling aspects come into play; the story and gameplay. Outlast's hide-and-seek style of survival needed to be more daring than it was, never shaking things up enough for the player to adapt beyond minor (mostly trivial) additions. This, alongside a story that's told almost exclusively through notes and journal entries that ends almost as abruptly as it starts leaving on an underwhelming note. At its worst, Outlast is frustrating and isn't really scary, leaning too hard on its navigation puzzles misdirecting you or the same enemy type murdering you for the 10th time. At its best? It's a tense horror game that barely gives you room to breathe. I'd say if you can stomach its gameplay it's worth a shot, at least for the first hour and a half-ish from there its a mixture of how lucky/skilled you are at running and if you're willing to pour 5ish hours into beating it.
