Is it as good as Outlast?

[Dalv]

Undecided if I should buy or not, doesn't seem to reach the level of Outlast 1 from reviews, but I love the first Blair Witch movie.

Im not sure what you expect from Blair Witch.It`s a "Game" on its own and i like it.

If you like the first Movie,get it.

outlast 1 wasnt very scary so you have low expectations

i played it on xbox because it came out free with game pass day one. If i could get a refund from a free game, this is the only one i ever would. Plot was nonsensical, mechanics were not fun, and game was overall very buggy. I played the game with about 5 other friends, i had never seen the movies so i was excited to be spooked by what was to come, but those that had seen the movie were very disappointed. the controls are bad, the menus to do things are bad, and the final chapter is running around the same house 4 or 5 times. If you want to play it, get some friends together and play it for free. otherwise watch someone else play, this game is worth negative money and time.

i will say, there is one part where you talk to yourself in the past, and turn on lights; that was a neat idea. Oh, and you like change the world based on where you pause tapes, but other than like 2 kinda neat parts, it was a mad stinker.

Finally a proper answer, thank you!

What Zabrome said is exactly what I thought.

This game is nothing like Outlast. I always felt like I was not safe in Outlast. Things could kill me and the chase sequences were thrilling. Outlast was a game where you actually felt nervous going into new places of the Asylum.

This game is nothing more than a walking simulator and not a very scary one at that. I never felt like I was in danger. The mechanics to avoid monsters were to shine a light at them or simply not look at them. It was almost laughable.

The worst mistake of all was giving you that dog to follow you for the majority of the game. The game had the potential to be very tense and atmospheric when walking through the woods in the dark. However, the dog takes away all tension and makes you feel safe. For a horror game, I want to feel tense and on the edge of my seat.

Hearing that dog whimpering and barking all the time really got on my nerves. The entire game I was thinking "Man I wish I could just get rid of him".

EDIT: Don't get me wrong, I love doggos. Just keep this one out of horror games.

don't consider the game based on a few negative comments go watch some videos of gameplay and decide for yourself plus a few patches have come out since the release witch fixed a lot of the problems I for one love the game plus have seen all the movies. maybe wait till a sale. it's nowhere near as scary as outlast. it does have an amazing atmosphere to it and can be creepy. anyway, watch some gameplay. it's NOT a horror game is more of a psychological horror game

[Red Jasper]

Play the game yourself because I really enjoyed it. Negative comments are the reason I stopped reading reviews for a game I thought I might like. It's definitely more psychological horror than other types of horror. There are many games I hate that many will think I'm crazy for not liking. Go with your gut. It sounds like you want it. Don't let opinion taint it.

You get the most out of this "Game" when you play it alone in the Dark.I would never play it with many other ppl around and at a bright setting.

Like i do with all other "Horror/Scary" Games.

Summary of the whole game :

BULLET, SEEK!
NOTHING THERE HUH?
BULLET, SEEK!
NOTHING THERE HUH?
BULLET, SEEK!
NOTHING THERE HUH?
BULLET, SEEK!
NOTHING THERE HUH?

Toppled with pixel hunting in utter darkness.
