Sullivan walked out into the night and saw in the dark sky a vision like that of the Prophet Ezekiel. God told Sullivan that he was sorely displeased with the world and its churches, and needed a brave new prophet. But as he listened, he began to hear something underneath the preacher's voice: disguised in static was the true voice of God. He turned in desperation to late-night Evangelical radio but found no comfort in the voice preaching against the evils of extramarital fornication. It was 1966 and he was a shoe salesman in Albuquerque, New Mexico, about to lose his home to mounting debts he could not pay. Sullivan Knoth was the age of Christ at crucifixion when he first heard the voice of The Lord. It will give you nightmares.Here's a bit about Sullivan from the developers themselves: So in a nutshell, Outlast 2 in my opinion is a worthful sequel to the first Outlast (2013) and I definetly recommend playing this game. Personally I liked the religion based topic in the Outlast series, but I would have wished a more obvious connection with the Murkoff Corperation (if you ain't ignorant you will see realize that Murkoff is playing a major role on the brainwashing of the villagers and Blake. The more we proceed the worse the issusions in the school get and the more we uncover the dark truth and traumatization which Blake (the main protagonist) had to face, when he was a little boy in the christian school. Deep beyond the surface of Outlast 2 is a very sad story which is mixed with the events happening in the main game. The whole mix between illusion and reality was a thing in Outlast 2 which I really appreciated. The story of this game or let's say the lore, is what makes you as player proceed and motivated to play 'till the very end. I mean come on, a forest at night, of course it will be dark. Unlike some other people I didn't have any problems with the brightness. Also I very liked Papa Knoth and would have wished giving him more screen time, because he is a very intersting character. The school demon was the most scary thing I saw in a horror game in my opinion. I mean Marta is very scary at many points, but Nick and Laird really wanted me to punch my screen. In Outlast 2 there are honestly not so many memorable characters. It was the Atmosphere and the cool characters, such as Fatty, Eddie Gluskin (my absolute favourite character), the Walrider, Father Martin, Miles Upshur, Waylon Park, Jeremy Blaire and so on and so on. The chases didn't make the first Outlast so famous. Dear Red Barrels I just wanted to make up some thing clear. I honestly can understand the critical voices among the players. Many players were complaining about the AI, many chases, even the story and the ending. That means, a complete opposite from the first games, but it's still managing making in a frightening experience for me at least. This game although features a complete different environment, which is open. The school parts are also very nervbreaking at some point, because of this claustrophobic feeling, which I really appreciated in the first Outlast games. I love the Atmosphere, the soundtrack (including the ambiance), the graphics and the characters. In my opinion this game is done unbelievably well like it's first ones.
