Outlast (PC) | FTG Review

FTG Writes: I first encountered Red Barrel’s Outlast at PAX East 2013. I walked by the booth and spotted some interesting footage playing on the nearby HDTV and the developer giving an interview to some press. I wanted to give the game a shot, but had a panel to get to, so I rushed off and planned to play the game at some point over the next two days. Unfortunately, that never happened. Once word got out about Outlast, the line never let up. The developer had to open up a new demo station at a nearby booth just to help with the overflow. This fifteen minute demo of an indie game that few had heard about before was one of the most talked about games of the entire show. I finally got to play Outlast once it was released on September 4th. While it is a very well made and scary game overall, it has a few lingering issues that take something away from my final enjoyment.
