Hey everyone, this is Dusk Golem aka AestheticGamer. I have posted on NeoGAF since 2011, and have decided to resign. I have enjoyed posting about horror games here for years, but I no longer wish to support the site and will be leaving for good. I will still be around the internet, I go by AestheticGamer on YouTube, I make games on Steam as Yai Gameworks, and I plan to go by Dusk Golem on other forums. I'll be joining an off-set of the GAF community leaving to try other ventures like ResetEra (Official Twitter for that here: https://twitter.com/reseteraforum ). I hope some of you who read this may consider it, and I plan to try to expose more people to horror games in the years to come. Just not here.

I hope you all are having a good day, and know I always loved the community, and in the end it's the community I'm going to stick with, not the site itself. If you want to follow me, my official Twitter is here: https://twitter.com/AestheticGamer1
 
Neat and tidy OT. I am in for PC version. Although it's nice to see Pro support for PS4.

Also, I thought there were a few reviews already posted?

Maybe I'm missing something but your post doesn't really explain what you mean my releasing again on the 25th and saying it's out already.

I'll probably get this within the first week. The demo was pretty great and the story seems more interesting than the first Outlast (which was pretty weak, imo). My only reservation is the whole separated from wife trope.

The again may have made that sentence more confusing, it's fixed now. The game releases in 2-3 days from today (April 25th), though I wouldn't be surprised if some people get the physical copy of Trinity early or the like on Monday.

Aren't OT's supposed to go up the day before release then?

In. I want this game to fuck me up. Loved the first one, even though the ending went way too far off the rails for me.
 
My copy of Trinity shipped yesterday so I could possibly get it on Monday. Best Buy is hit or miss. I'm looking forwars to playing through both games back to back!
 
I hope they fix the horrible pacing problems with the first game and make it more than "run away from enemies your always faster than."

I love the atmosphere and setting of the 1st one but the gameplay got old and repetitive after awhile. Hopefully, they're able to change it up and add new gameplay elements to this one.
 
One thing to mention about Outlast 2 compared to the first is the level design is completely different, with more a focus on bigger, open areas. Also as you're in a cult, there's now multiple stalkers and sometimes you've avoiding mobs and the sort. But pacing will make or break it, I do agree.
Thats good to hear. I hope the game doesn't fo what the first game did with having one guy chase for 60% of the game

Looking forward to it, although I couldn't buy Whistleblower because I heard it has sexual violence and I can't derive enjoyment from seeing that. It kills it for me.
 
GAF is black and gray, not blue and white.

Not in the awful terrible universe of Outlast where things suck ass

Also had no idea there was a comic lol

Ooh boy that part..."so we did a pretty good job with the
finger chopping
scene in the base game, how could we possibly top that?"

If it helps, that part isn't until toward the end, so maybe you can desensitize yourself with all the regular gruesome violence before that lol

Can't wait for this.

Outlast 1 and it's DLC (alongside Alien: Isolation) is probably my favourite horror game in a long time.

i have found memories of streaming the first one and some friends coincidentally watching when i had put the controller down to go to the bathroom and my character was sitting there in front of a jail cell where a guy was loudly jerking himself off lol

Very tempted. I loved the first one, but was unable to get into Whistleblower for some reason. The demo for 2 didn't grab me, not sure why.

I loved the first one and Whistleblower but the demo didn't nothing for me as well. Looking forward to reviews.
 
Resi 7 in VR has spoiled me, Don't think i can take scare horrors serious anymore on the TV. Being inside VR added a whole new level of immersion this game would be fantastic to play.

I'm so happy for this release, I'm buying two copies of the retail version. Crazy, I know. But I absolutely love this series. I even once let my PS+ membership lapse just so I could literally purchase Outlast again, instead of owning it via PS+.

To me the demo was a bit too "linear", it kind of felt like I was on an amusement park ride or going through a halloween haunted house.

It gave me a much different vibe from the mental hospital of the first title. I found the
flashbacks
to be detracting from the atmosphere and it kind of broke the immersion for me.

When are the reviews going to be up for this one? I've had my eye on it for awhile, and I'm curious to see how it turned out.
