Miles Upshur, the idiot.

[affairs most succubussian]

What a ♥♥♥♥♥♥♥ idiot. He goes inside the most evil pplace on Earth, and it's asylum, and it's filled with crazy crazies and most likely zombies. And for some pathetic reason he decides not to go with a gun. *sigh*

[Star_Inferno]

Every gun was broken and useless inside the asylum. And you can't kill the Walrider with a gun. This makes a gun pretty useless. And I doubt you can kill Chris Walker that easy with a gun.

The idiot? Perhaps the idiot would be you, kid. Miles is the bravest journalist and the best journalist in the world, he just does his job to bring the truth to light.

[Star_Inferno]

He sacrifices himself to expose the terrible stuff going on in the asylum. Would you do the same in real life? I don't think so ^^

Star, trust me, double 00 12 guage buckshot will put anyone down, no matter the muscle mass or what drugs your on, unless your the size of an elephant. In regards to the OP's comment regarding Miles not having a weapon, I thought a tazer or pepper spray at least, but thats not what the game devs wanted. Anyhow, I liked the game as is.

The weapons would destroy the essence of Outlast and much of the tension and fear. Believe me, don't devote in a video game developer of horror, because you haven't idea.

This isn't about the game, this is about logic. I agree he is the bravest, but to not bring a gun into a creepy asylum is, unsafe. Killing the ghost would be a problem with a gun, it wouldn't do ♥♥♥♥ to him, beccause he's a ghost(logic) but the other maniacs such as the cracked doctor or the muscular biggy are killable, and it would solve lots of problems.

I'm not saying this game should have usable guns as weapons, but just think about it, if you were to be a brave journalist like Miles, wouldn't you bring a weapon of some sort?

Guys, you're forgeting that Miles didn't know what he would come up against. He just got an email saying that there's an asylum doing illegal stuff, and that it wanted him to expose it. The least he would think is sneaking or something non-lethal. Plus, he's a journalist, not a gun expert. I doubt he'd have the money to even buy them, nor he would care.

We all know this is set in Colorado, a state in the USA where guns are allowed. But Miles is just a very brave, but regular reporter guys doing his job. In all that tension and fear, he wouldn't be able to use his weapons properly.His hands would be shaking and he will miss the shots. And guns are pretty loud and could alert more patients around this place. In a place like that, hiding and avoiding direct contact and staying as quite as possible is the best thing you can do to survive. Even Miles who hs very much experience with his job wouldn't be able to prepare for everything that might happen. Even with the most powerful weapons, the Walrider would laugh is ass off and kill you with only one finger ^^ Waylon could pick up a nightstick lying on the ground. He didn't pick up of of them. Why? Because he was focused on getting out alive and return to his family. The pain and suffering in this place doesn't let you think clearly and straight. You have other thing in your mind than killing everyone on sight.

Actually Colorado has gone anti-gun, If one follows that sort of thing.

No, because to start I wouldn't have the courage to go to an abandoned asylum alone.

Moreover, I understand of the gun, but it will be incorrect. Kill the mad doctor with a gun, and? Now what? That's not fear and take away much of the stress, fear and excitement of the game.

This cause is of the great successes of Outlast, be defenseless.

but... not it's here just for a reportage and save the friend, Waylon Park ! but yes... is not the good place for that... --'

Beginning of the game, after you're inside.

The Fat ♥♥♥♥♥♥ grabs you and throws you down a window.
You pass out.
Priest finds you.
Tells you to stay alive (or something)
He'd take the gun.

Upshur Miles=brave,best reporter,fearless,honourable.....
