Supernatural stuff?

[Ariton]

I thought Outlast will not include supernatural stuff, so why is there supernatural stuff in Outlast 2?

[Mr. World]

First game didn't, but no one promised that second game will be the same. By the way it may turn out all the supernatural stuff could be just a dream.

Did you even play the first game?

first game had supernatural stuff in it. a shadow monster was killing off people in the asylum near the end of it

Apparently you guys did not.
The Walrider wasn't some supernatural monster/ghost.
If you guys have no Idea what you are talking about don't talk at all.

I doubt that this all could just be a dream, cameras usually do not record dreams only a person sees.

What Outlast 2 showed in the demo version had nothing to do with supernatural stuff I would say. You could see a village of a cult and the inhabitants, whether they were dead or alive, didn't look supernatural. However, Red Barrels gave the information that the village won't be the only setting in this game and that there could be a connection to the first Outlast game. So there is a chance that some supernatural things will be going on in Outlast 2 :)
The Walrider from Outlast 1 was a supernatural creature though.

Walrider was not supernatural, it was made from nano robots apparently. And the demo had to do with supernatural stuff, didnt u see the monster that pulled him in the fountain, and then at school?

But the Walrider is described as something supernatural. I have never heard of the nano robot thing. The Walrider is also a real myth and there it is described as supernatural as well. And after all wasn't it controlled by Billy ? So it basically is a supernatural version of a human-being.

It is true though what you say about Outlast 2! I totally forgot about the thing that grabbed the dead girl and about that huge tongue. I am very excited for it :D

Who the f*ck cares if there's "supernatural stuff" as long as it has a compelling story, scary/fun gameplay, and awesome chases like the first game im happy

Well I for one love supernatural stuff and the part in the school of the demo really got me excited for this game. Looks really good and scary so far unlike the first one.

Nope, the wallrider is nothing supernatural. What the guy before you said, those are nano robots. It is explained in the game, just read every document etc.

Judging from the Pewdiepie demo gameplay he just released there is a supernatural creature of some sort present.

Okay. Here is Magical Mazzy, here to solve the case. Technically, the first Outlast wasn't supernatural, but I mean common. Billy Hope sure didn't look any different than a damn ghost. Sure, it was actually Hope -supposedly- controlling a cloud of nanites (some tiny nanoscopic machines), but the majority of us was too scared to pick up what the story was putting down.

Now, that said. I personally am going to keep calling it a supernatural. On top of that, I have no recollection of either games being forced to be realistic. Outlast (1) may have taken that route -ish- but Outlast 2 certaintly doesn't have to. If that's where the devs wanna take this. That's the road they'll follow. I just want a game as enjoyable as the last.




NOW, with that said going into super technicallity, since both these games take place in the same universe, (Outlast 2 taking place after the first) you can't make the statement "Outlast 1 isn't supernatural, but 2 is" because that contradicts itself. If the second takes place after the other, then the supernatural stuff happening in the second Outlast is also taking place in the same universe as Outlast (1). This is all on the assumption the second even is supernatural. Maybe there's some explaination in this game as there was in it's previous game.

*Just a note, that last paragraph was more for fun, than actual arguement material. The game Outlast(1) is without a doubt, not supernatural, unless of course, you describe all of it as unexplainable by science.*

The whole plot of the first one was that there was a demon loose in the asylum so there was supernatural stuff since the Outlast 1.

No, ffs read the comments in this thread.
There was NOTHING supernatural in the first outlast.
Do you guys just rush through the games without paying ANY attention to the story or what?

Yes, it's true, the "ghost" that everyone is referring to is nano-bots. It is explicitly stated within the collectable documents in the game.

It's more sci-fi than anything...

Personally I wished they hadn't even gone the nano-bot route. I liked it far more when it was grounded in reality.

Or really? Man, I can't belive I missed that. So in the end of the Whistle Blower DLC the nano-bots were actually using Miles's body like a puppet, huh. Interesting.
