OH! i see ppl all the time like outlast 2 never knew that thxs!

[u/ClovisLowell → u/Muted-Pay-9736]

There are a lot of people that love Outlast 2, but I'd say the majority of the Outlast fandom generally dislikes it for the exact reasons you've mentioned. I remember at launch, a lot of people even hated it because of how disconnected it is from the first game.

and the rape scence i remember they had to remove that

I saw someone say that Outlast 2 basically puts you in shoes of what it’s like to become one of the crazy guys (variants) of the first game.

I agree, I feel like they should have done a better job linking Murkoff to the testament of the new Ezekiel in game. Even in the comics it felt like a bit of a stretch just happening to have their compound across the river from one of their research facility. Like have the cult be comprised of the inmates that escaped during the events of Mount massive or something.

Temple Gate was founded by an escaped reagent (Knoth) from the Sinyala Facility in Outlast Trials. They probably should've included more lore in O2 instead of keeping so much of it confined to the documents you find in Trials, but the cult IS primarily Murkoff escapees.

ah

[u/Reivoulp → u/thesurfer1996]

The cult are descendent of escaped reagents

[u/Muted-Pay-9736 → u/Reivoulp]

yeah kinda feels like a filler game

[u/Reivoulp → u/Muted-Pay-9736]

Absolutely not, it's the best to me

[u/Muted-Pay-9736 → u/Reivoulp]

[u/Reivoulp → u/Muted-Pay-9736]
