Just want to thank you for what you do, a lot of these games I'm too anxious to actually play, but the lore is super intriguing so I still get to experience them.

Try Trials. I was the same way with Outlast 1 and 2. I didn't wanna play them but I loved the lore. Im a chicken but having a blast in Trials. It's easier to handle the scares with a group lol

Red Barrels has outdone themselves… I’ve heard some people say that the update was minorly lackluster from a gaming standpoint… I love it. All things aside.. the amount of historical alignment and understudy for the sake of lore is spectacular. They have consistently proven to Outlast fans that they do love this game. Thank you Red Barrels.

You should look into the Montreal Experiments :) they’re not really a part of the outlast story but it was the Canadian extension of MKUltra headed up by the same people. The CIA is responsible for some truly fucked up stuff

@CanyonALynn 2 ай бұрын

I love that you go into the background history instead of just regurgitating basic info directly from the game! It gives much needed context for the overall story. And I agree with the fact that probably since day one, my theory is even before that, Easterman is being subject to some higher, overaching experiment by Murkoff but more specifically Dr. Wernicke. And if he's the 'god' of Temple Gate, then... ...I love Outlast! ETA: So, hold on a moment. The Korean POW thing that the CIA/Murkoff pulled Easterman into in the very beginning was based fundamentally a lie? All Easterman originally wanted to know, to understand, what happened to his older brother Stanley during the Korean War. I *really* think Easterman was scouted out by the CIA/Murkoff (like a prime-prime asset) before he even was approached by the CIA. My theory is that his 'research' in Hong Kong was a test and he somehow passed when he accidentally generated enough trauma in one of the subjects to briefly summon the Skinnerman. Just a theory.

@GamingHarryYT 2 ай бұрын

Unless the Skinnerman is represented in a different way to different groups of people. Maybe the Skinnerman took on a different form for the HK POWs, than that of Easterman to the Reagents. For example, the Skinnerman to BLAKE, could’ve been the entity in the school, which was of course a representation of how he saw Loutermilch.

@CanyonALynn 2 ай бұрын

@GamingHarryYT Agreed. I also believe the ongoing deeper fan theory that this phenomenon(?) is unique to the Outlast universe. It is an entity that has a unique appearance based on the thoughts/experiences/sanity of either the individual and/or group. Almost like a personal Silent Hill entity. Therefore, the Temple Gate god, Skinnerman (both Hong Kong and Sinyala versions), Loutermiltch, and the Walrider are the same type of phenomenon brought forth by different minds. I think Dr. Wernicke is trying to artificially recreate it, which he briefly did in Berlin, but for what overall purpose...?

@sabrinanursalfiah39 Ай бұрын

Make me wonder what happened to murkoff after the MK ultra end in 1973, maybe they are hiding and destroy the eviden of their cruel experimen that what i think but what about reagent what to them do they leave a normal life and start a family as a new person or they join the cult.

@imnotusingmyrealname4566 Ай бұрын

What did Wernicke do in Berlin?

@CanyonALynn Ай бұрын

@imnotusingmyrealname4566 In Berlin, while he was working for the N*zis in 1938, he created the first iteration of the Morphogenic Engine and caused a very brief flash/appearance of an entity. This is thought to be the very first appearance of the Walrider, or an entity/phenomenon like it. This information comes from a document Miles Upshur found during Outlast 1 called The Spirit Breach.

Due to the time period I was thinking that perhaps the toxic shock gas could be the gas later dropped during the Vietnam War codenamed project orange? I say that simply cuz the events are documented 10~ years prior to the war, the gas has an orange hue in game, and causes permanent health damage.

I dont want to sound like I'm being defensive over the CIA, im by no means a fan, but why do you insist on downplaying the actions of the USSR in every video about the cold war? Why are you pretending that the soviets carried out justice against unit 731 while the US immorally used their research when, in reality, the soviets did the exact same thing: setting up their own biological weapons research lab using the research they recovered as well as research given to them in return for leniency by members of 731. Like you dont need to be spreading literal soviet propoganda to tell the truth about government actions during the Cold War. It is insulting to people's intelligence to think we wont notice.

Its especially confusing when you purposefully introduce comparisons between what the countries did and then just misrepresent one side. I suppose it's to emphasize the sinister nature of the government's actions during the time, but it's not like we don't know what really happened.

My point is that he literally fell for propaganda, and the info is inaccurate because of it.

@@tyj5721 haha. It’s not though. He’s presenting it as the game is presenting it. But he’s also not wrong, the soviets imprisoned the scientists and researchers from 731, whilst the US gave them jobs on their own bio weapons program. That’s the harsh truth. Both sides were buttholes during the Cold War, but the whole thing about the Outlast Trials is focusing on the dark stuff that the US Government and the CIA got up to. That’s not falling for Soviet propaganda, it’s a presentation of true history, like it or not.
