It's not like other resident evils, closer to Outlast or PT (although they do give you a gun)

Headshots headshot headshots

Anything other than headshots is close to worthless. So if you're playing on PC the game is much much easier than on console.

It's worth watching the VHS tapes as they give you some background and show you upcoming solutions

Keep an eye out for collectables and ammo. It's everywhere if you look for it.

Blocking is useful!

Running away is usefull!

There is no reason not to save/store items whenever possible.

Oh also close doors behind you.

Some enemies can't go through doors and others basically become helpless behind them.

Doors are your allies

Also if you're cool with cheating (you naughty cheater you) there is an exploit where you can quick reload guns and quick heal BEFORE the animation finishes.
.
Look at your ammo counter in the corner, if the counter goes green then you've reloaded. At that point press block and you'll stop the reloading animation.

Same for healing, once your health is healed you can block and it will end the animation

This can save you a second or two if you're ever in a tight corner

How is Outlast? I lump it in with all my other Xb1 games on GWG... "oh maybe I'll try that" then never do. Is it good?

It depends on what kind of horror game you're into.

Its story is balls and there's nothing original or clever in it whatsoever. But it nails the "Helpless, in danger, all you can do is hide or run!" Horror game that things like Slender and Amnesia popularized.

There is no combat whatsoever, no means of self-defense. You must either sneak past, hide from or run away from monsters at all times.

The other gimmick is that most of the rooms are very dark and your only source of light is your nightvision camera which requires batteries to use and depeletes quickly.

So there's a lot of both scripted and non scripted jumpscares where you'll walk into a dark room, use the camera, see nothing, few more steps, use the camera LBATHG MONSTER GRR!

If you're into that niche, then its one of the best examples out there.

If you're not into that niche, you will get bored.

A lot of people call it cheap, personally I don't think it's cheap, I just think it's trying to do one thing and does it well.

If you like Horror games I'd reccomend it. I really don't think it's very expensive.

Yeah they toned down the action horror and toned up the atmsopheric horror.

Basically they looked at Konami and said "Wait you idiots aren't making PT? After all that fuss you caused!? SWWWWWWEEEET!" and made it themselves.... then put a gun in it for some reason...


Which means it's reviewed really well but classic Resident Evil fans hate it for how it's nothing like other Resident Evil games.

I did the Mia tape thing... I just used the Eagle on the projector, got to the new area and saved. After the garage, I was confronted by the dad again. So about 2 hours in. Played an hour each day.

How much replay value does this have?

This game is tight though. It's obviously different than other RE games, but they add the little touches, like a menu sound effect, and it seems cohesive.
