It's worse than Outlast in that regard. The fact that it's not just using poor visibility to hide how scripted it is, like Outlast, makes it even worse.
It's much more open, with a bunch of different ways to move around and approach things. Which means more avenues for the Alien to hunt you.
Oh, and it's actually hunting you, it tracks you by scent and sound among other things, and it's AI adapts to your actions while you are playing the game. There is genuine dread there, not just anticipation for the next jump scare. "Verily, I have often laughed at the weaklings who thought themselves good because they had no claws."

Uh huh. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=74wWwEvygM8 Allow me to be frank. You will not like me. You will not like me now, and you will not like men++ a good deal less as we go on. |

There will always be an unexpected glitch in a game. |

I've seen behavior in streams of the game that appear to be a line-of-sight detection bug, but it's mainly occurred when the streamer is playing on Easy difficulty.
I stopped watching streams after players would get more than a couple hours into the story, but based on some of the footage I've seen of harder difficulties, you can't rely on hiding for very long.
Would like to get my hands on this game eventually. |

Bingo. To the person above who highlighted the glitch, yes, sometimes you will survive when it may have seen you. On hard it's considerably more punishing. It's especially keen on nailing you when you are trying to hack a door or something. "Verily, I have often laughed at the weaklings who thought themselves good because they had no claws."
