This Achievement in Outlast is COMPLETELY Insane

[@samuelantoniocastillomeza5034]

Outlast in the hardest difficulty, crippling yourself from a vital game mechanic and all while trying to keep the video monetized... I love your determination. It's admirable.

The dicks tried their best but hopefully I was able to hold them off enough

The dedication to trying again not once, but TWICE when you were so close to winning is simply stunning. Would sub twice if I could.

[@demonman905]

Fun fact about the night vision camera. Even if you use up all the battery, you can still continue to use night vision mode, it's just that the range for how far ahead in the dark you can see is less than if you had battery. I played through the entire game without reloading once and could still navigate the dark areas with relative ease.

[@Snamwiches]

Oh wow I had no idea lol, I was waaaay to conservative with the camera to even get close to realizing that

[@ResidentEvil30001]

​@@SnamwichesWoooow you're such a good player man.I will not even think to do this achievement if i had the game.

[@jer8279]

​@@Snamwichesmakes your run more impressive!

[@LordofFullmetal]

Do you have the brightness turned way up? Because this was NOT the case for me. Yeah the night vision still worked in a sense - but the range was so pathetic that it was almost as bad as not having it at all. So it ended up being preferable to just memorise the map in certain areas where I knew I wouldn't need the night vision and then run through it blind, rather than risk running out and be running from an enemy not able to see more than an inch in front of my face. I also learned to "flash" the night vision on and off, memorise what the area looked like and where the enemies were, and then progress from there - instead of leaving it on for long periods. Valuable skill for this game.

[@Sakamoto11250]

similarly in outlast 2 if you have your device on full brightness you can navigate easily through the jungle and 50 percent of game without night vision

[@Someguyhere111]

This is one of the few achievements you've done on this channel that I actually have XD I actually combined it with Clautstophobe, for whatever reason. I had to retry a few times but overall it wasn't as bad as I feared it would be. The AI is actually very much scripted and easy to manipulate. Enemies follow a set patrol route until something draws them away from it, and while doing some kind of animation, like opening a door or jumping over an obstacle, they won't acknowledge you. So at 8:50, the moment you land in the room, you can just bolt and Chris won't start chasing you until he's done with his little entry animation, by which point you can easily outrun him to the end. There's another point where you can just run right past an enemy while he's breaking a door down, which is a scripted thing he does. You can literally hump him and he won't do anything until he's finished with that door, so if you just run past you can get far enough away that he won't even hear you anymore. There are also a few blindspots some enemies have, where it seems like they SHOULD be able to see you but absolutely can't for whatever reason. Flashing the night vision just to make sure you don't bump into anything or miss a turn doesn't consume that much battery, and as you said, enemies don't run any faster than you so as long as you just don't stop, you're good, and there are few places where you HAVE to stop when being chased. The only parts I really struggled with were the last bit in the sewer section (large room full of water with Chris comin' at you) because you don't really have anything to use as a reference, and the outside section. I pretty much used night vision the most in those two sections as a result.

[@assassinforyou]

I too did it with claustrophobe. It took me two attempts in the end. My first run ended because I grabbed by Chris walker at the end of chapter 7

[@Someguyhere111]

@@assassinforyou If I'm remembering the chapters right then I think I know where that is - the part where Snam got beat by a coffee table, right? I got got there, too. My strat was to wait by the door, then as he approached run insde and out the other door, circling around him. I just didn't account for the fact that he could simply go back out the door and meet me in the hallway. On my next attempt I used the far door instead and it worked better.

[@assassinforyou]

@@Someguyhere111 Yeah, that's the spot. exact same thing happened to me. I then ended up at the same conclusion and fared far better on my second run

[@zt1970]

Thanks man good to know I’m practicing completing insane mode first 😂

[@NemesisSieg]

The one thing that shines through on every single video and stream is Sam's positivity. Doesn't matter if it's a death on the final hurdle of an insane run, he enjoys what he's doing and always takes the positives from every situation. And that makes for a much better viewing experience for viewers and far better compilation videos like this where we get to see the final result. Keep up the great content!

[@beaversigma]

I commented about that too. His positivity has an insane hard breaking point.

[@queenofnerds7135]

Most of your fails were caused by getting lost, while the others were by a coffee table and a lamp post. Not gonna lie, it greatly amused me

[@captainmorgue4642]

Getting softlocked in like 5 seconds on a little sign seemed very fitting, making us all proud Snam lol

[@Redbirds-jq3gs]

I respect how you can stay positive thru the whole run even after deaths. I would rage like crazy

[@HelixChannel]

Outlast 2 Messiah wipes it’s 🍑 with Outlast 1 Energizer

[@ianchambers37]

Some funny quips for sure in this video. I've never played the game but ive heard of it and about it of course. The joke about the inmates cracks caught me off guard but i chuckled all the same. Also the lamp post somehow trapping your character was so ridiculous but seems somehow appropriate at the same time for a speed run to have a random glitch happen.

[@KeenanBask]

Yeah outlast has a lot of these bugs it’s actually insane

[@banderson.a]

Id like to point out that I noticed and appreciated the ratatouille music in the middle of the video, but it wasn't just any ratatouille music. It was the Ratatouille PS2 Game circa 2007. I only recognized it immediately bc that was my entire childhood. My fyp brought me here for a reason lol

[@lovefurypassionenergy]

I applaud you for your courage Snam, there is NO way i'd even consider doing something like this, no sir. Great content as always ❤

[@cheekloins4126]

I used to feel bad about myself watching these because I try to hunt achievements and there are so many I just cannot get. But then it dawned on me, the people out there like you are just another breed, and those achievements are specifically made for you guys, not for the likes of me.

[@ianchambers37]

I mostly just stick to 100% completely finishing games like some of the lego ones. I especially skip most if not all multiplayer achievements 😂 i did have the first lego batman glitch so I couldn't 100% it sadly but otherwise fairly smooth sailing.

[@Vok250]

You really gotta do the crew before it goes down. Just 100%ed it and some achievements were like 0.05%

[@GameMaster136]

Now it's time to jump into Outlast 2 and have fun running away from cultists in the dark. I never got around to doing it since I kept climbing into school lockers trying to get through doors in the dark. Probably should have just left the no hiding spot achievement for a different run.

[@RealObadiah]

I actually loved the advertisement for Dr. Sqautch idk why but I enjoyed it

[@ramonperez5365]

another great one man glad to see you growing and keeping up the consistency!!

[@fatcat2015]

There are speedrun strats for skipping very small sections of the game. A few skips and you can go right to the basement, then a bit later the hardest skip ever to go straight to the sewers.

[@steelbear2063]

There's a skip that gets you from the start to the final section, so yeah

[@OfBeehive]

You're covering my two favorite games (TEW and Outlast), much love!

[@reaper0204]

I remember doing this. I just played the game normally till I practically had it memorized. God, it was hell.

Seeing you try to loop around a coffee table even though there were literal couches really hurt my soul 😞

[@GothBratJinx]

I just finished watching someone getting all the trophies in every outlast game and wanted to see how you handle the hardest achievement. Plus love your videos

[@ChristianSekel]

You know if you run out of battery and don't reload you can see better in the camera than without; makes it a lot easier 😬😬

[@MystikGaming20]

11:50 Snamwiches, the greatest master baiter I've ever seen

[@greekstyle5788]

Years ago, I played this game so much that I knew every corner of every room, every collectible location and could speedrun through in about an hour and a half. Only real danger for me at that point was when the walrider would chase you, if you werent fast enough he'd insta kill you. Now I cant remember shit about it and definitely couldn't get this achievement again lmao

[@Lawlz117]

aww u should have done claustrophobe too, i did all 3 achievements and it was so much fun learning routes and only relying on running away and not hiding while also not being able to see half the tim

[@Snamwiches]

Honestly that sounds like a lot of fun too, maybe if I ever end up doing it again haha

[@Lawlz117]

ye maybe, honestly i get it tho. I remember doing a run and dying to the dumbest thing and almost throwing my controller @@Snamwiches sometimes the regular enemies will be unfair and just hit you out of nowhere

[@EponineGraydeChagny]

34:44 - Actually I was thinking (read: hoping) you would do the "Bowelwhistler" achievement for the Whistleblower DLC. Not because it's "the hardest achievement of all time" or anything, more just because I love the DLC and would love to see you cover more of this game lol

Messiah achievement in Outlast 2 only took me 3 tries, and the first 2 attempts ended the same way (I fell trying to get onto a ledge near the end of the game). I think it's easier than energizer, tbh

[@tournesol99]

I've done this challenge a few times. Enemies are so heavily scripted that you can pretty much get through most of the game without difficulty. Not getting caught on stuff you can't see is the actual problem. Dying because I ran into a box, or couldn't vault over a railing happened so many times. Other than making sure I don't run into something I pretty much don't use night vision. Made it through with well over half battery on my last go. Something like 70%.

[@AmazingCrimsonDragon]

It's okay, Snam, I went for this achievement and died 5 feet from the button at the end of the game. I have never been more tilted in my life.

tbf after doing this achievement on xbox it was very easy after playing through the game on normal and just figuring out a route

[@Momo_Minomo]

Nicely done Snamwiches! Though I hate to tell you this, but you can still use night vision after your battery is dead, it's just very short range. I agree with you on Outlast 2, btw, so I don't blame you for dodging that one. How about you do Alien Isolation's One Shot achievement (1.7% achieved on steam) where you complete the full game without dying once? The second most rare achievement is The Taken (1.9% achieved on steam) where you collect all the ID tags and you could technically do both of them in one playthrough if you wanted the extra challenge lol

[@Snamwiches]

Perfect you say that, because that’s the exact achievement I’m making a video on next :)
