Anyone know if the cases for this become harder? It really needs to get more challenging soon for me to consider it a good detective game.
Levi Morales
lovecraftian?
more like shitcraftian
John Allen
Funny how Bloodborne fags present themselves as Lovecraft fans but are among the ones who understand it the least
Grayson Moore
They are just detective stories with a spooky twist, video games could easily be "Lovecraftian".
Joseph Powell
They are detective stories about mysteries that can't be understood involving beings that can't be defeated. Something that goes against video game design.

The only truly lovecraftian game I ever seen

You can't have a lovecraftian game, given the nature of the genre, but you can have a game inspired by lovecraft's work, and Bloodborne is probably the best there is in this regard.

Sonic has some lovecraftian ideas sometimes. Though the quality of the execution is somewhat questionable.

This, nothing will ever truly scratch the itch that bloodborne gave me, unless bloodborne 2 comes out. But then again, the big twist in 1 was that it wasn’t beasts and shit but great ones, so idk if 2 (if it ever comes out) will be as impactful.
Luke Rivera
Obviously not intentional, but lavos fits the bull as a lovecraftian esque monster, considering it's a cosmic horror with motivations and intentions that are never really fully understood. but even then, I would never call Chrono Trigger lovecraftian.
Jace Edwards
This.
How can you even make a racist, homophobic, xenophobic video game in 2019?

Some old forgotten online browser games sure are pretty fucking Lovecraftian
Games like:
>Steppenwolf
>Arcane: Online Mystery Series
Are Lovecraftian as fuck, especially the latter one has strong “fear of unknown” undertones

Nice revisionism, it applied to switch and labo reaction pics initially before everyone joined in on the meme

but its intentions are completely understood. It's just a big parasite. That's it. once it finishes eating it will have babies and they will go to another world
Jacob Harris
Wasn't this enemy cut from the game?

Yes, that's the explanation the game gives because it has no intention of going a lovecrafting route. But you could say the same thing about a lot of lovecraftian villains. It ignores the fact that lavos is a sentient being that maliciously messes with time, space and the minds of with some other kind of agenda entirely. Chrono Cross, as much as it drops the ball sometimes, really hammers this home when it explicitly states that lavos is responsible for the evolution of humanity and has been guiding and curating it this entire. Seems pretty Cthulhu-esque to me.

a game with just lovecraftian themes by itself can't work well

No, have you ever been to shoreline? There are like two of them right before Looks To The Moon.

Is Baldur's Gate lovecraftian? I saw the trailer for Baldur's Gate 3 and I never played one before but it seems to have a cthulhuface guy
Cooper Walker

I regret making this thread and seeing every dumbfuck refer to everything with a monster as Lovecraftian
