I started playing the game with a nightmarish difficulty level and I liked it, although it was hard, it was more interesting than on an easy one.

Non-stop tension will define your trip to Mount Massive Asylum, should you choose to take it. Outlast puts players into the role of aNon-stop tension will define your trip to Mount Massive Asylum, should you choose to take it. Outlast puts players into the role of a freelance journalist who's only method of defense is to run and hide. A single camcorder makes up your entire arsenal of tools. It's a novel idea that sets Outlast apart from the pack, and will carry you through this twisted ride until the credits roll.Definitely not for the faint of heart. You'll witness some truly horrific acts. The disturbing moments, extreme violence, and creepy atmosphere make for a truly unsettling horror experience that will stick with you long after you've completed it. The chase sequences will get your blood pumping and pulse racing as you desperately try to lose your pursuers. The story at the core of things is decent, but it's the side-stories found in case files scattered around the asylum and the personal notes one will get from recording and documenting certain events that really get under your skin. Especially since the final act takes a turn for the less-frightening as you move away from the dark hallways of the asylum in favor of the brighter-lit underground laboratory locations. Admittedly, I appreciated the moment to catch my breath after being constantly on the edge up until that point, and it does seem like the next most reasonable place for the narrative to go. Still, the game ends on a slightly flatter note as a result.Your gameplay experience with Outlast will be plagued with dread to the point where it may even be hard to keep going at times due to apprehension about what may be around the next corner. As terrifyingly exhilarating it is to narrowly escape with your life when running from one of the asylum's deformed denizens, these moments can also be pretty frustrating. The game's tendency to every now and then force you into a more contained section of the asylum where an enemy or two relentlessly patrols the area while you must do things like reach pumps to drain the path forward in order to progress gets old fast. They are scary at first, but can quickly become tedious in the face of several repeated attempts. Something that can drain the fear from Outlast and make players want to move on for entirely different reasona.The complaints I have didn't do much to lessen my enjoyment of the game though. Especially since it's a pretty brief experience. The originality is what will win you over and ultimately scare the pants off of you. There's nothing quite like stealthily making your way through pitch black corridors with only your camera's night-vision mode to guide you and an ever-rapidly draining battery. It's like the first ever found-footage style video game and it's a blast to play.
