We doubt will see that scene but it will be interested to compare the differences between the story then and the story now. With the upcoming update, there will be "minimum changes" to the story, though talk of some of those deleted scenes making in onto the game have been a center focus with the team discussing re-insertion, "Also, we've taken the opportunity to reinsert some of the things we had to remove from the original game in order to get an M rating. It's not the "Easy Modes" other games have been adding that eliminates the threats in-game entirely, but it does allow players that are genuinely interested in the narrative of Outlast 2 to enjoy what's being delivered at a less brutal pace.

It also offers more freedom of movement than the first game of the series while the original Outlast had you confined to the halls and cells of an asylum, making it heavily dependent on scripted moments, Outlast 2’s layout is often more expansive while still keeping players on a path forward to the next area.A new Story Mode is coming that will still let you die, but will decrease the amount of enemies players will encounter while also nerfing them a bit for a more casual experience. Ranging from ‘normal’ farmers and housewives to far more ominous denizens of unique design and abilities, Temple Gate isn’t the paradise Father Noth paints it to be. Over the course of the game you’ll become far too well acquainted with the town, and those who dwell within.
Temple Gate, established in the early 1970’s, has had plenty of time to build up a following of those faithful to Noth and his vision of being the guardians to stop a forthcoming apocalypse. A flock is only as prosperous as their Shepard allows them to be in that way Father Noth has cultivated an entire town into a twisted killing machine. A lot of very sadistic locals, with their feet planted firmly in a twisted cult based on altered teachings of the Bible by Sullivan Noth. You can’t save everyone sometimes you’ll question if you can even save Lynn, or yourself for that matter. Your goal is to find Blake’s wife, and to get the hell out. There is very little good to feel about except that you’re not one of the poor victims seen throughout the game. These opening moments set the bleak stage that is the narrative of Outlast 2.

Stepping into the shoes of a loving husband and professional cameraman, players take on the role of Blake Langermann. Outlast 2 takes us off of Mount Massive in Colorado and down to the desert landscape of Arizona. Outlast 2 is set in the same universe as its predecessor, but as far as I can tell other than admission by the developers themselves, it is Outlast only in name and game mechanics. I make the claim here and now, that Outlast 2 is and will be for some time, my favorite horror title and it’s not for the faint of heart or fragile of mind. I have never felt as invested into a narrative of a horror game in such a way for a long time. My heart raced faster than when I was hunted by the Bakers of Resident Evil 7 or the Xenomorph of Alien: Isolation my stomach turned enough that I had to take a break from the game a few times. The recordings and documents, that must be recorded by using the camera, as well as the locations of batteries and bandages, which are a crucial gameplay mechanic, are also highlighted here.

Silent Hill, Penumbra, Alien: Isolation, and most recently Resident Evil 7. I’ve played ones that have stuck with me long after I finished. In my time, I have played more horror titles than I can think of.
