Really scary and still holds up today!

Muy buenos recuerdos cuando este juego estaba de moda y con muy buena razón, el hecho de que el juego te deja muy en claro que la única opción es correr, dice mucho de él, te sientes indefenso y vulnerable en un lugar que definitivamente no es amigable. Probablemente lo re juegue pronto.

I know some people don't care for the walk-run-hide loop in games like this. You don't have any ways to actively defend yourself or really interact with the world in a meaningful way. But, something about this game just grabs me. Maybe it's the eerie setting, maybe the eccentric and frightening characters, or maybe just the bizarre mystery at the heart of it all. Honestly, it's all of that. I think this game has the perfect combination of those elements that kept me wanting to creep further and further into the demented asylum, despite having to constantly flee and navigate pitchblack corridors while dodging insane people. That, coupled with the resource management of your camcorder's battery made for a tense and sometimes terrifying experience.


Best horror game made. When I finish outlast 2, I might change that tho.

I will always defend this game no matter what I've always thought it was just an amazing game its so fun and just makes my heart race every time I play it its terrifying has some great lore and just such an amazing game and as an indie game oh my god its just insane that this is an indie game.

Great now I can’t sleep tonight

It's a mainstay of the first-person chase-em-up horror subgenre, and one of its more effective and gorier examples, even if it's far from a perfect game. The Whistleblower DLC is perhaps even stronger than the base game, but is only so effective for the ways in which it weaves through and around Outlast Classic, and I'd highly recommend both of them. On sale, though -- with modern exemplars like Resident Evil 7 and Devotion, Outlast is interesting for its place in the history of the genre but its middling design and often predictable scares are definitely indicative of its position in history as a more formative title, which is a nice way to say that it hasn't aged very well and is unlikely to turn you into a fan of first-person chase-heavy survival horror if you're not a fan at the outset.

Caramba, de verdade, que jogo bom! Nessa onda de jogos de terror, resolvi jogar um jogo que já ouvi falar muito bem e muito mal. Outlast possui um estilo de gameplay único e muito divertido, porém muitas pessoas não gostam, por você simplesmente não poder se defender de nada, apenas correr e se esconder. Eu sinceramente acho que para esse jogo esse estilo combina super bem, até para a pegada que o jogo quer passar no jogador, o terror, o medo e a curiosidade. O fato do jogo ser em primeira pessoa, não me agrada muito, mas assim como o estilo, isso também favorece demais para a funcionalidade do jogo e agrega muito bem no terror. Logo no início, fiquei meio perdido e quase tive um ataque cardíaco, com isso percebi que o jogo não é para brincadeira e que eu ia me assustar bastante ao longo da campanha. E de fato, segui tomando inúmeros sustos até o fim. Outra coisa que eu achei meio estranho é a duração do jogo, que na minha percepção era muito maior, porém acabei finalizando o jogo bem mais rápido do que eu imaginava. De qualquer forma ele entrega tudo oque um jogo de terror precisa para ser incrível, assim se tornando um dos melhores. Gostei bastante, me diverti muito e quase morri na vida real. Super recomendo!

I honestly dont know how i find it scary back in 2013 this thing is painfully unscary with alot of cheap jumpscares really doesnt age all that well
