People talk about the pedo media influencing tv and radio but think any game companies/games to? This is sick. This coming from a long time gamer.
http://www.a90skid.com/outlast-2-review/ "Outlast 2‘s obsession with demonizing radical Christianity (and more specific, Catholicism) is all fine and dandy. I have no issue with using religion as a way to tell your story, nor do I have a problem with exploring the darker parts of these faiths. There’s some sequences that relate to a fourth grade girl and a priest at her school; two guesses how that turns out. Honestly, I’m okay with that kind of story telling. It’s real, it’s raw, and impacting when done right. However, I do take issue with poetically describing how slitting a child’s throat makes you wet with blood lust. Several documents are scattered throughout the game, sometimes written by cult members, other times written by Sullivan Knoth himself. These mostly depraved, talk about torturing and slaughtering children, and always with an inappropriate sexual deviance. Furthermore, Outlast 2 really loves to push the envelope, having no issue clearly showing hanging children, and decomposing corpses of toddlers. I’m all for freedom of expression, but Outlast 2 uses this child-murder-lust far too often. After a while, it’s not shocking, it’s just in bad taste."

If people understood psychology and how mammals learn and socialize we'd understand what's happening here. Humans and mammals learn from game play. It's a very important aspect of culture. The music, symbols in TV shows, weird games, someone is trying to change the morality of humans subconscious mind. It's so orchestrated on many fronts it's frightening.
edit: also a lot of research has shown that the brain is changed by images seen. It can also react to external stimulus as if the event was really happening. Example horror movie.
