Outlast 2 blake face10/26/2022 ![]() ![]() Before she dies, she says “There’s nothing there”. You’re helpless at this point of time and you end up passing out courtesy of the traumatic experience you just had. When you wake up, you find Knoth sitting in front of you. He curses the baby you’re holding and tells you to get rid of it since he can’t kill it. Knoth slits his own throat and you walk out of the chapel with the baby in your arms. The whole town is in shambles as Knoth has killed them all. ![]() There is another bright flash of light after which you end up back in the school. In the school you meet Jessica who has rope marks around her neck. She takes you to the room where the two of you used to hangout. There she takes your hand and says a short prayer and the credits roll. Now let’s go deep down the rabbit hole and find out what actually the ending of ‘Outlast 2’ was all about. Let’s begin with all the visions Blake has throughout the course of the game and the reason behind them. The reason behind these hallucinations is what connects ‘Outlast 2’ to its predecessor. Specifically, in your gameplay you will find a document titled “Old Traveller” which explains why the entire village and Blake are slowly losing their minds. The document describes how the radio towers were transmitting mind controlling microwaves throughout the village. It also tells us that The Murkoff Corporation is the one who is controlling everything. The same Murkoff Corporation which was responsible for all the gruesome experiments in Mount Massive Asylum in ‘Outlast 1’. So basically Murkoff was using the village as a testing site for its Morphogenic Engine a device which causes phantasms often resulting in self-mutation, paranoid delusions and violent behaviour. And the bright flashes of light were triggers which sent everyone exposed to the waves into a hypnotic frenzy. Thus it’s safe to say that the whole village was in one big mass hallucination.Īs Blake’s exposure to the microwaves increased, his control over his mind decreased. He is riddled with guilt as he blames himself for the death of his friend, Jessica. The ghost you encounter in Blake’s visions is actually the paedophile Father Loutermilch who assaulted Jessica. Now the only thing that Blake can think about is to save Jessica. ![]() His visions get so strong and traumatic that by the end he is devastated. So much so that by the time you reach the ending Blake is unable to distinguish between what is real and what is a mere hallucination. Now let’s move to the question which has led to numerous debates and theories all across the world. The question which all of us who have played the game desperately want answered. The question being that is the baby real? Also if the story takes place in one night then how did Lynn become nine months pregnant in a span of just 6-7 hours? If the baby isn’t real, then what killed Lynn and what did Knoth see? Continue reading and you’ll find the answer to all these questions and a lot more. To begin with, Lynn’s pregnancy was fake. Yes, it was just a manifestation of their minds which had gone haywire because of the microwaves. The fact that her pregnancy was psychosomatic can be proved by means of a document in ‘Outlast: Whistleblower’ titled “Miscarried Profits”. This documents talks about why women weren’t able to work in Mount Massive Asylum. This was due to the fact that they suffered from “pseudo-pregnancies” where they appeared to be pregnant and gave birth but there was no foetus/child. ![]()
