Hello hivers, hope you are in good health cuz I have not!
Recently, my friend visited me. His gamer name is Psychotic. Whenever he arrives he demands that I play the game that gave him PTSD during his teenage days just to see if I also do the same XD. Yup, Outlast. He said that this game was supposedly the best game with graphics during that time. I never played it nor did I see the gameplay of it. This is the 5th time he visited me, meaning it’s the fifth episode 😁. Don’t know when he’ll visit me next.
I played this game last year so I forgot all the controls and went on to check it first thing into the game.
P.s I went afk from minute 4 to minute 10 due to the some work bestowed to me by my great mother.
A problem I faced while playing in this game, I couldn’t make out when I was in trouble. The background sounds was intense, the sudden trumpet blow suggesting that Walker was near, the extreme sound of the noise even when I’m in the clear! This got to me and I was frustrated that I couldn’t progress further into the game and this time 2 of my friends were present. So I decided to Yolo it and and make a run for it.
I was only thinking about it and suddenly this guy charged towards me! I panicked and asked why did he come over without warning😭. I dashed to the other side and was running to hide from the guy.
Luckily, I entered the room that I had to go for mission purpose: to switch on the water valve. My heartbeat rose as I thought to myself, would the guy come inside? Would the small space be enough to stop him from coming my way? Luckily, it did stop him but I met another psycho in the game.
I was crouch walking through the place initially as I was didn’t want to alert my presence to the people inside. I did come across a fellow who was cleaning another person. Almost like pampering a baby.
Went for a closer view and saw that the person was probably tortured and his skin looked decomposing and his head’s insides were out. I saw another person in a pool of blood with his body smashed. Horrible patients these.
Inside the small room I crouched for a moment and them turned the red lever. We do have to diminish the raging flames in the room in the other side.
As soon as I went outside, I was distracted and the walker again charged right at me and giving me no chance to escape.
Welp, as you can see, I got caught. The guy threw my down and I went the other way. Back to the bathroom wing but to no avail, I was caught again and died. Had to do the whole thing again.
This time however I escaped from the mad Titan and was safe. I successfully crossed the small space and he went the other way. The picture here was heavily edited and I somehow increased the brightness without complete disfiguring it. The whole environment was dark and the only thing that could be seen here was Walker, not the small gap, not the shelves.
I gradually came out of there and made another run for it, I heard the walker chase me and dashed to the other room, unsure of what I would find. Didn’t find much but could hide from the Walker. Inside the locker I knew I had the time so I opened an obituary from Doctor Wernnicke. Before this is saw another pamphlet on PPSD. Psychopathological Stress Disorder. Interesting stuff.
Then I slowly came out of the locker with my friends still beside me intently watching my every move. And went for another Yolo. Luckily this time too I came the right direction and into the he laundry room. I went the other way multiple times and was too anxious because my friend was constantly telling me if the Walker had approached me or not, the background sound I tell you; pure adrenaline rush.
Inside were also rooms that I explored until I found the one with the valve. As soon as I cranked it I saw that the walker was coming for me. The guy literally broke the door down and ran right toward me.
I went inside the locker just as he entered the room XD. Needless to say that I was found instantly. The guy with his menacing face, looked into my eyeballs and threw e aside like a kid throwing a vegetable aside.
I got up and ran tf out. Straight to the water system room. Didn’t knew the exact location as panic had overtaken me and I just wanted to stay away.
This time I went the wrong way, to the bathroom. Just as I heard and saw Walker going away as his prey was gone, momentarily. I took some time to compose myself and as soon as he was out of sight I headed out to the water system room.
Went there crouching and heard the sound of chains slamming against the floor, the grunts, and the trumpet blow. I ran for the water system room but took a wrong turn and mistakenly went to h the dark side of the whole area. After a little here and there I finally reached it and turned the wheels. I instantly went inside the locker and waited for the Walker to pass by.
Again, my bad luck stroke again. I came out of the locker and I opened the door. Outside stood the dreadful creature. The whole environment was dark and had to brighten the pic. After seeing the guy I noped out of there and went back in the locker.
He found me XD. He took me out like a candy and threw me on the floor like a cloth in Dhobi Ghaat.
I died here and couldn’t escape fast enough. I didn’t know where was the burning class room and thought that it was the other way around, past Walker and he got me amid all of that thought. I died here, he most likely ripped my heart out.
Had to do the whole thing again and this time I went the right way. Crossed the gap and entered the place.
Saw the crispy body take in the water. I didn’t use the night vision much here as I didn’t want to waste much of the battery.
As I made through the room and into the kitchen, a mad guy, out of nowhere, came right at me and pushed me down. The journalist tried to push him back but he overpowered him and shoved him down. The guy looked tortured as his face was disfigured. He looked like he was running away from something. This was also the moment where I screamed out of my mind as the shock of him appearing suddenly and his loud wailing got to me.
I reached the exit of the place. A good sign indeed. How wrong I was…
I went out of the place and into the lightning stricken place with my night vision on hoping to spot anything that may come my way. I went onwards and got the iron gate where I told me to get a key. I turned back and heard another freaky howl of the wind. I thought I was mistaken when I also heard a loud wail in within that wind. I ran back inside and didn’t wait to find out what.
I searched for the key inside and didn’t want to leave any stone unturned and instead I found a report on MKUltra. An actual experiment of the CIA as my friend Psychotic says.
This was the experiment report. It contained odd numbered reports, a good way of distributing the information so that no bystander can get the whole gist of it from a single location. Pretty inhumane research on humans.
I went from the elevator shaft here as I truly wanted to explore all. My friend warned my about the elevator collapsing but I knew better, why would the game do that as there is a sort of pattern as to what it might to next to it’s player; maybe a jump scare or of some sort.
I went back into the kitchen and looked for more possibilities on the key being inside that room.
Found a bowl of fingers. My other teammate from a game commented on my stream. He asked if the chasing had finished referring to the doctor that cut my fingers as he wanted to prepare for some tests.
After the scanning the area throughly I went out once again and this time I went across the fountain and found a document. Further I went and was met with blocked with a mesh of steel.
I turned around and saw the creature for the first time! It was like a ghost but I knew that this game had no ghosts only mental patients that were ill treated. Regardless, it gave me bad vibes and went straight for the EXIT sign of the building. I worked my way around the ghost so avoid him completely. This time too I heard that same loud wail and this time there were no wind shrieking.
The document I found across the fountain area. I was and still am not sure if this was a message for me or the person that he killed.
This was a person sitting outside in the chair, in the open. Full of bandaids and blood spilled all over the place.
I crossed the area and found him again. This time too I chickened out and ran the other way. I looked for more edges outside the area as everything was also scanned through inside the building.
I went inside once again and looked if I had missed anything, it is possible that I may have missed something.
Inside the kitchen was another room that I looked through and didn’t find anything except for canned food that had probably gone bad.
This time I was serious about losing my health and all as I was running out of batteries and options. I went to the fountain and to the iron gate and then I found this small hut that was in the right side of the EXIT of the building.
Inside I found a battery and the key! Finally I got it.
I went straight out and inside the gate. Above the gate was a person sitting and seeing how the whole thing went down. As I traversed I was curious about the place and wanted to find more batteries that maybe laying about. Found the Walrider instead and boy did it make a sound when it was approaching me. I closed the door immediately and went the other way as if nothing had happened.
Even the character I was playing with noted down that he had seen the Wallrider. I am curious to know as to how did he receive that name.
I went inside and was searching the place until my battery was dead due to continuous night vision use. Two things I noticed here. First, the devs knew that this place would be difficult so they gave night vision but the range of it was reduced drastically so I can only view the impeding danger and not from far away. Secondly, I found the ladder that would take me up to the rooftop of the area.
Going through with the rooftops with my night vision on as I didn’t want anymore surprises there, not like the one I had in the kitchen.
The place where I am supposed to cross to. I don’t know why but here too I was getting that danger sounding sounds in the background.
I crossed the path and heard a wish from a person nearby. I thought I was was the person lying down but no, it was a dude who was half naked and was saying that he saw the ghost.
This guy literally told me to bleed for him XD. He was scratching something or somewhere near his middle nosy part area. He had 2 cut up legs up to the shins area.
This was the guy who had seen the ghost. Very creepy and equally sad situation for him. This was also the time where I was hearing chain dangling noise, yeah the Walker was in the garden with me.
Spotted the bloated guy in the distance thanks to the batteries that I had, just 2🥲.
Slid through the thin extensions of the wall and jumped down. I had to go down to another section but the Walker came from the there so went back and juked the guy. I turned back and went back to way the came from in the pic and entered the female ward.
Heard the Walker give out an angry cry as he couldn’t get me in the nick of time.
A fountain of blood. So much dismembered limbs… I don’t know how the guy in the game survived it all. But be did get chased by a Titan looking guy, a doctor, and more crazies inside this asylum.
The saying of Father Martin after I successfully got into the room. He said that a revelation was about to come, about the Walrider or Walker? Didn’t know.
My character’s notes. Don’t know how he still is using his hand with such fingers.
Now, one thing after the other is unravelling. Saw the laundry room, saw the guy who was chasing me from the other side. This was the time when my food arrived and went afk for 4 minutes.
The next step, to insert 3 fuses in to get key from a cut hand. What an interesting way to go.
I really thought that this was gonna be another jump scare but no, the person was motionless to and through.
A person here was making a ceremony. He wanted to have a revelation here but had a body of his beloved. A sacrifice? Anyhow, this guy chased me out of the room. In this room I found 1 battery. The guy here only chased me until I had left the room.
Outside, this guy chased me throughout the area. This was where I found 3p4 more batteries! This place took a while for me to understand. It stretched far and the hall was narrow, for one person only to pass so I couldn’t get caught. I was constantly avoiding this guy by making him come inside a room with me and I would go the other and shut the door on him and escape while he would struggle with the door until he broke it. By then, I would just hide inside a locker or underneath a bed.
I found all 3 fuses and the laundry chute was open. Now I only had to go down there and collect it. I kept it here and saved it as my friend had to go. Till next time.
Enjoy the thriller gameplay!
