i really want to hear your opinions on all of your outlast trials questions 👀
Hell yeah! Thank you!! 🥰 All my answers are below.
Have you played OLT yourself, or have you only seen Let's Plays?
// I've played excessively. I bought it the day it was released.
Is/are your reagent(s) a self-insert of yourself, or are they OCs?
// He was a self-insert and kind of still is, but I have given him his own name.
What is/are your reagent(s) names?
// Alex / Alexander. He looks like an Alex. I make the same one every time.
What's a brief backstory of your reagent(s)?
// I don't have one yet besides he's somewhere between 25-35 and was kidnapped off the streets by Murkoff.
What is your favourite trial/program?
// It started off as Kill The Snitch, and I do still love it, but after playing so much and the devs making things too easy... I kiiinda like Program 3/Orphanage more now 'cause there's more to do and it's a bit harder to evade enemies.
What is your favourite challenge overall, or favourite one from each Program?
// I really like Feed The Children / the one where you go collect 5 bottles of bleach for yummy bleach-and-body-parts soup, and both of the Kill The Snitch challenges.
How many reagents have you released?
// 4, I think. On the way to releasing a fifth later tonight.
Who is your favourite lesser ex-pop?
// I like the girl that walks around mostly because her VA did such an incredible job.
Who is your favourite main ex-pop/prime asset?
// [giggles] Coyle...
Who is your least favourite lesser ex-pop?
// That goddamn screamer. Or maybe the woman hiding in lockers and under desks that never shuts the fuck up.
Who is your least favourite main ex-pop/prime asset?
// Well since there's only two, I guess Gooseberry is my 'least favourite'.
Do you play solo or in a group? Which do you prefer? Would you be willing to try one or other if you haven't yet?
// Solo. Never played with anybody else. :/ I never planned on playing w/ anyone else bc I really don't think I'd enjoy it, I think horror games should stay solo, but I've had a few people ask. I don't think I'll play though, one unfollowed me lmao and the others have people to play with, so.
Regardless of the trial and their objective, which map and/or map section is your favourite?
// I love how Fun Park looks, it makes me a bit nostalgic for a fair/carnival I used to go to annually growing up.
Do the sound jumpscares ever get you?
// Yes. I'm super desensitized to horror and don't usually react to anything, but the fucking noise jumpscares in Trials are SO loud and so unexpected, they make me jump almost every time.
Do you like the music (ambient music, chase music, end-trial music)?
// Yes. I love the menu music, and the music that plays at the very end of the Program 2 trials/challenges.
Do you like the release protocol? If not, what would you change about it?
// I like it. I like that we get to put all that we've learned in the 3 programs to use (the reel, the tuners, the keys, etc). Idk, I think it's fine as is. It's overwhelming the first time you go in, but after that, it's smooth sailing.
What kind of new trial or new enemy would you like to see?
// I would like to see an evil corrupt priest prime asset, maybe pay an homage to the Father from OL1 or the whole cult nonsense from OL2. Bigger maps would be cool.
What would you like to see changed or implemented into the game in the future? Get creative!
// Definitely stop making it easier and easier. More passive voicelines from everyone, especially Coyle, and fix them so they stop overlapping/interrupting each other. I want to see more cosmetics and room decor options. I also want to see simple emotes (sit down, lay down, maybe a silly little dance) and more comms wheel options. Text chat that's only set to groups would be nice as well, but it would need to be heavily monitored and regulated to limit toxicity. Not everyone has- nor wants to use a mic.
How many hours do you have in the game?
100hrs.
Have you played the other Outlast games (DLCs included), or is this your first time~? Do you like other horror games?
// Yes, I've played and re-played all OL games and dlcs many times. I replayed everything months ago after playing the OLT beta.
Are you easily frightened by the game, or do you consider it a joyride? (AKA, are you as desensitized as OP)?
// Joyride. I've been looking for something to make me feel something or make me genuinely uncomfortable, but nothing has, not since Amnesia The Dark Descent first came out in 2010 (minus the brief, mild discomfort OL2 gave me).
I feel OLT is their most watered down game yet, and it's really disappointing to see them censoring and limiting themselves... because Outlast is the no.1 series I have praised for years for being the ONLY horror series/developer that has the balls to put out really extreme, uncensored content. And now they've made it kinda boring and less extreme. :/ I am completely desensitized to horror and don't experience fear.
Any funny moments you'd like to share?
// I have some funny videos I never posted of shoving Coyle back out of the way with a door, and of him spinning in place lol.
Any bullshit kills you'd like to share (glitches included)?
// I think it was the second or third hardest difficulty of Fun Park in Program 2. Two different instances. First time, I was in a pitch black room and wasn't moving, but Gooseberry--who had no idea I was there and was just patrolling--suddenly bolts straight for me out of nowhere?? And another time, I was hiding in a bin, and she did not see me go in, I wasn't peeking, but all of a sudden she bolts straight for me again, pulls me out, and kills me in one-shot when I had 5 full bars of health.
Any funny glitches you've encountered?
// I guess the aforementioned stuff might be glitches.
Would you recommend the game to others in its current state (early access)?
// Yes. For early access, there's a decent amount of content with high replayability.
Have you played Project Omega?
// No. I don't plan on it. Don't have a group of trustworthy people to play with and I hear it's near impossible.
If you've ever played DBD, would you like to see one of the prime assets as a killer in DBD (in theory)?
// Gooseberry would be really cool to see as a DBD killer.
Do you think the prime assets need to be more present in the trials/challenges or no? Why?
// Answered this the other day. Yes, I think they need to be more aggressive and present and have their AI improved.
On a scale from 1-10, 1 being 'so easy a baby could do it' and 10 being 'surpassed Dark Souls' level of Difficult', where would you rank the game in difficulty, scare factor, and fun factor from when you first started playing compared to now?
// Excluding my beta experience... First time: 6-7 | 5 | 8. Now: 3 | 1 | 5.
What's your opinion on adding voice recognition so the killers can hear you speak via mic (like Phasmophobia)?
// I would love to see it. I'd have a blast talking shit or flirting with the antags. I did that all the time when I still played Phasmo. Would be really cool if they respond to certain things you say as well.
What is the shortest and longest amount of time you've spent in a trial/challenge?
// Longest, a little over two hours... Shortest, 6 minutes.
If given the option, would you like to become a prime asset yourself post-release-protocol and given the option to hunt other players or AI?
// YES OMG. I would LOVE to hunt down some poor fucker who's just starting out. A lot more fun than playing killer in DBD, I'd bet.

Don’t mind me, I’m just imagining college-age Waylon and Miles :> I remember reading somewhere that the devs said Waylon listens to metal rock (I think it was one of luvisia’s post :0)
Im projecting onto Waylon atm, but both him and Miles capture almost exactly what I’m going through in life right now lmao
it gives me so much comfort. I’m gonna make so much college-age Waylon fanart using my own experience as a punk Berkeley student studying computer science huehuehue
ALSO I remember seeing some camerashipping fanart (I FORGOR THE ARTIST AND AM HAVING TROUBLE FINDING THEM, BUT I BELIEVE IT WAS ON THE OUTLAST REDDIT ALSO. HSHHHSHJS I LOVE THAT ART. ITS SO WHOLESOME) and that’s definitely what inspired Miles’ outfit in here.

Rules: tag 10 people you want to get to know better! Tagged by: @meroisachurro (omg i just realized what ur url is now... wrow) (i’ve been reading it all as one singular word..) (thank u for tagging me btw! i love these things)
Relationship status: very happily taken! :)
Favorite color: oh this is tough... i like the shade of brown on tabby cat bellies. i like the colors of the sunrise and the sunset. dark dusty purples are a current favorite, though! last month my favorite color was forest / sage green. lately i’ve been really getting into the way bright colors look against dark backgrounds.
Song stuck in my head: lament of the angel - the binding of isaac
Last song I listened to: 666 kill chop deluxe - noisemaker remix
Three favorite foods: gas station sushi, crab rangoon, and anything w buffalo sauce
Last thing I googled: machine scraping up blood art installation
Dream trip: right now? i would love to just go visit my boyfriends house again and take long walks around the “neighborhood” (if you can call it that. its more like a collection of houses and some farm properties) as the sun is setting and watch for bugs jumping around in the grass while talking about our silly little characters. oh man and since i have hearing aids now, i could probably hear crickets and frogs! it’s really pretty out there, in the middle of nowhere. it’s so flat compared to where i live, i could see clear to the horizon, blocked by absolutely nothing.
Tagging: no pressure to fill this out! @inkedrobotics @ap0stle @luvisia @macabrevampire @pumpkingrand @bunnysfarms @groupwest @comfortofalaughtrack and the mutual reading this!

Tag Game
I’ve been tagged by @ourspecial to share some five songs I’ve been listening to lately! The other day I just had to make a playlist for going to the dentist so I’ll pluck some stuff from that. I’m a huge sucker for lyrics too so I’m gonna write in my faves.
1. Fade In/Fade Out by Nothing More
When the morning comes and takes me
I promise I have taught you everything that you need
In the night you'll dream of so many things
But find the ones that bring you life, and you'll find me
2. Infra-Red by Three Days Grace
The key to the light in the way you move
Like nobody else is in the room
If you fall into me, I fall into you
I see you, I see you
3. Familiar by Agnes Obel
For our love is a ghost that the others can't see
It's a danger
Every shade of us you fade down to keep
Them in the dark on who we are
4. Broken Bones by Chvrches
Our love will never die
Broken bones and promises
Your weakness is clear now
I see your kind eyes
5. Monsters by All Time Low
I'm wondering why do all the monsters come out at night?
Why do we sleep where we want to hide?
Why do I run back to you, like I don't mind if you fuck up my life?
I’m tagging @lotus-ashi and @luvisia, what are y’all listening to?
