Pushing the boundaries of taste
Ever since I played the firstOutlastback in 2013, I’ve been intrigued by how far Red Barrels can take things. Horror has always been about scaring people or putting them in unsettling or unfamiliar locations. With this series, it goes that one step further by actually creating something disgusting.
Known for its shocking amounts of detailed gore, disturbing content, and sexual themes, theOutlastgames have trodden where other survival horror franchises rarelu dare tread.
I’ve yet to playTrials, but with version 1.0 around the corner, it might be time to re-enter Murkoff once more, because a perturbing amount of violence of psychopathy is evidently what’s missing in my life.
