A Good Way to♥♥♥♥♥♥in your pants:
Outlast 2 is a first-person survival horror video game developed and published by Red Barrels. It is the sequel to the 2013 video game Outlast, and features a journalist named Blake Langermann, along with his wife Lynn, roaming the Arizona desert to explore the murder of a pregnant woman only known as Jane Doe.Blake and Lynn get separated in a helicopter crash, and Blake has to find his wife while traveling through a village inhabited by a sect that believes the end of days are upon them.You have a camera and are in general trying to find something without getting killed.

Pros:
1. it delivers a solid scare and experience for those seeking the thrill.
2.The atmosphere and soundtracks are solid.
3.The engine is well-optimized.

Cons:
1.Without collecting the collectibles in the game the story is totally not understandable.so if you are guy who doesn't do these extra things you will find the story garbage.
2.Too many chasing sequence.

The gameplay is about running and occasionally hiding, the lack of any means of offense is really absurd. you can sometimes break free from your enemies by doing a quick-time event, but getting caught usually means death and restart from checkpoint. There are makeshift weapons lying all around, but the main character focuses solely on his camera and running skills.so its a sort of a con abut the game but if you consider it from a personal point of view its understandable but still not able to use offense even occasionaaly is baffling indeed.I have never played the first one so can't compare these both but i think red barrel did a good job in making the game scary.The game isn't for the faint heart and the game is extremely edgy.you gotta play this game alone during night in the dark to literally experience the scare.so its a seal of approval from me.
