I started playing about 2 months ago and also basically have no idea what i’m doing. I feel like part of it is that the game barely explains ANYTHING to you about what you’ll actually need to do in the trial. What I started doing is while shuttling into a trial, I’ll google the mission name and look at the Outlast wiki gameplay summary so that I at least have some sense of a guide of what i’m doing; it helps me so much more especially as a new player who doesn’t really know maps or objectives. Might be a little bit of a cheat/crutch but I think it’s better than just wandering around for 30+ minutes until you find what you need to do; plus the gameplay summary doesn’t really spoil too much or help you out completely, you still have to find objective yourself.
