Outlast / Videogame	comment	Advertisement:propertag.cmd.push(function() { proper_display('tvtropes_mobile_ad_1'); })Independent journalist Miles Upshur breaks into Mount Massive Asylum for the Criminally Insane, which had been recently reopened by the transnational Murkoff Corporation, after receiving information from an inside source. Expecting a controversial scoop, Miles soon finds himself inside a horrible nightmare he could never imagine.Outlast is a Survival Horror game released for Steam on September 4, 2013 with a version for the PlayStation 4 released on February 5, 2014, and an Xbox One version released on June 26, 2014. You control a Non-Action Guy with no combat options aside the ability to parkour his way over obstacles, hide in lockers and under beds, and cut off pursuers amongst the decrepit hallways of the facility. As an added mechanic, Miles has a camcorder with a Night-Vision Goggles mode, which is useful in the asylum's many pitch-black sections but requires batteries to operate.Advertisement:propertag.cmd.push(function() { proper_display('tvtropes_mobile_ad_2'); })An expansion pack, Whistleblower, was released on April 6, 2014. It follows Waylon Park, the inside source that tells Miles about Mount Massive, and takes place during the takeover of the asylum and after the events of the main game. Like Upshur, Park isn't physically equipped to handle the inmates and must run and hide while using a camcorder to see in the dark.The game was followed by: Outlast The Murkoff Account (2016) - An comic book series expanding on the games' universe. Outlast II (April, 2017) - A sequel, this time set in an Arizona cult town rather than the asylum. The Outlast Trials (2021) - A co-op multiplayer game set in the Cold War.

Outlast / Videogame / int_20e6a6e7	comment	It Only Works Once: Doors are probably the best defense against enemies; since enemies can't physically open them for some reason and have to break them down, giving you good enough time to hide or escape. Sadly, when an enemy breaks it down, you can't use the door again. Some of the special enemies later on in the game can open doors though. While this means that they can still be used, it also gives you less time to escape.

Eddie Gluskin, a.k.a. the Groom, the unique stalker who you have to deal with in the final section of the DLC, is actually the patient who was begging you for help at the beginning of the game before being dragged off, put into the Engine, and turned into an insane monster. To be fair, if you had tried to intervene at that point, the only thing you'd have accomplished would have been taking a bullet to the back of the head.Downplayed in that he barely remembers where and when he saw you and just brushes it off as just another memory before 'waking up'. On top of that, the Morphogenic Engine did little to change his M.O. (the mutilation and murder of women), it just gave him a delusion that caused him to see Waylon (and every other male unfortunate enough to come into contact with him) as a potential bride.

Beforehand, when Gluskin's buzz-saw is a hair away from castrating a bed-restrained Waylon, a random variant punches Gluskin and sends the bed flying out of the saw's path. Before any of this, Waylon is able to escape from meeting a fiery death at the hands of Frank because the wall was just weak enough for him to kick a hole through.

Outlast / Videogame / int_40cc0c7e	comment	Bittersweet Ending: Blaire is brutally killed by the Walrider. Waylon successfully escapes and receives medical treatment, and gets protection from the authorities. Some time later, he is preparing to upload his video of what Murkoff has been doing to the public, but his mysterious benefactor (an Expy of WikiLeaks) warns him that once he uploads the video, Murkoff will bring their full wrath down upon him, the life he has will be over, and his loved ones will suffer for it. He still chooses to upload the evidence of everything that happened to the internet, irrevocably damaging the company responsible. However, the people looking after him make it clear that they won't be able to protect him and his family from the company's full wrath, and you know that Miles's story comes next. Also, as Miles is not only still alive, but has escaped the asylum, the Walrider is now loose upon the world, with all the apocalyptic consequences that suggests. Though, the ending also implies that, as savagely violent as it was, the Walrider ultimately wasn't interested in causing The End of the World as We Know It or anything of that nature. This may have to do with it merging with Miles Upshur, as indicated by his brief appearance during Waylon's escape.

Outlast / Videogame / int_446c5792	comment	Villainous Rescue: Chris Walker doesn't directly save Waylon from Jeremy Blaire, but his sudden presence nearby is enough to scare Blaire off before he can finish choking Waylon to death. A random patient saves Waylon at the last moment from the Groom, who was a second away from chopping off his genitals to make him his bride. Maybe. If it was the same patient who warned you about the Groom in the first place, then it's just a typical rescue. At the very end of the game, the Walrider appears to save Waylon from Corrupt Corporate Executive Jeremy Blaire, who was about to kill Waylon to prevent the truth about the asylum from coming out. However, given that Miles is still alive and may actually be controlling the Walrider, this could also be a Big Damn Heroes moment.

"Great Miles, you managed to kill the Walrider's host and become the new host, allowing you to escape and preventing it from running amok. Oh hi guards, what are you doing with those guns?"

Outlast / Videogame / int_c6c5ce4	comment	Bedlam House: Mount Massive Asylum is not a place of healing. It turns out that this is entirely intentional, even critical to the plot: The Morphogenic Engine only kicks in when used on subjects who have experienced/are experiencing extreme emotions only found in horrible living conditions (which is why its first successful use was in the heart of Nazi Germany). Wernicke says it's a way to force the human body to assemble molecules on demand — human-created nanotechnology. Either that or the patients are right and the Walrider is Made of Evil and only manifests in extremely evil conditions. The two theories are not mutually exclusive. Additionally, the Morphogenic Engine seems to run on ''memes" as much as anything. Patients yell cryptic stuff that is surprisingly accurate, like how "THIS is the experiment!" or "What kind of experiment would the dead perform on the living? I'll give you a hint: it's happening right now!" By continuing to do horrible things to each other, and to their former captors, the patients are "spreading" the experiment around. That's why you meet several executives who are just as crazy and mutated as the patients, including Trager and one of his victims. Kind of makes Martin's goal of wanting you to spread the truth all the more sinister, huh?

He can run quite quickly though, and the night vision on his camera lets him have an advantage over all of the inmates he faces. Miles' inability to fight back is actually explained by a document found later in the game, explaining that even in subjects who are not capable of becoming hosts for the walrider, exposure to the morphogenic engine causes a surge in human growth hormone as well as other hormones; every psycho you encounter is effectively on a heavy steroid cycle, and so far from normal mental processes that they are probably using a LOT more than the normal 50% of their muscle strength that a human is normally capable of employing.

Outlast / Videogame / int_d24ed873	comment	Developers' Foresight: The first time Chris Walker stalks you, you need to hide in a pair of lockers to avoid him. He always checks the locker you didn't hide in, then turns his back on you before leaving. If you switch lockers while his back is turned, he'll turn back around and search the locker you just left. This makes you feel really clever, but actually isn't necessary since he doesn't do this if you don't switch lockers. Later in the game, he will search multiple lockers, though. Late in the game, as you're about to enter the chapel, the two naked Twins will be standing there (they're hostile no more at that point). Until you leave the chapel, you cannot crouch - so you won't even be tempted to look straight into their crotches. When you encounter the Walrider for the first time, you can shut the door in its face as it comes towards you, should you have quick reflexes. The Walrider proceeds to phase through the door and disappear after it gets close to you. When you recover your lost camera, the enemies you suddenly find yourself surrounded by give you enough of a head start that you can shut a door in front of them.

Outlast / Videogame / int_ffb79066	comment	Chromosome Casting: While a "Helen Granat" is mentioned in both games as a member of Murkoff's legal department, there are no on-screen women. It's justified in-game with files explaining the Walrider Project caused terminal phantom pregnancies in both female patients and staff, resulting in a nasty lawsuit, and as a result all women were removed from the project. A note from Blaire to Trager implies that had the Walrider not broken out when it did, they were going to resume experiments on women, as Blaire saw their extremely powerful reactions to being near the Engine as an opportunity for profit and eye-candy.

Outlast / Videogame / int_ffd816e7	comment	Everything Trying to Kill You: Surprisingly averted. Not all the inmates are violent, and even a few of the violent ones will show no interest in pursuing you. This actually makes exploring the asylum more tense, as it makes dealing with the inmates unpredictable since you never know whether they're going to attack or not.
