![]() Wrapped in the trappings of the Southern Gothic and centering around an isolationist community held together by a cult of personality, the game is mostly focused on the destruction wrought by unquestioned authority and blind (or cowed) obedience. You’ll want to give the locals a wide berth. ![]() It’s a bad situation even before you encounter knife-wielding hicks, knee-high piles of child corpses, and scrawled notes rambling about the apocalypse and a monstrous sun creature “fucking the earth.” Yeah. Waking up in the wreckage, you’re separated from Lynn and are forced to explore the shanty huts and creepy chapels of the cult alone, relying on your camera’s night vision optics and directional microphone to navigate the dilapidated compound. Needless to say, things take a quick turn for the worst. While filming some establishing shots of the countryside and rural compound, the chopper you’re in goes down. While her story is unknown, the most promising explanation is that she was a runaway from Temple’s Gate, a reclusive religious community hidden in the mountains. You and your reporter wife, Lynn, are investigating the mysterious death of a pregnant 15 year old Jane Doe found wandering a desolate highway miles from civilization. ![]() Outlast 2 uses a similar setup to the original, casting you as a milquetoast videographer named Blake. ![]()
