What are the best lovecraftian video games?
Are there any that feature eldritch abominations like pic related?
>>
You can play as one in skullgirls, though most of it's moveset is it turning into other characters and using their moves.

It's not really represented well in the games but the flood in halo in the lore itself and particularly the forerunner books are honestly some of the best exampels of eldritch elder god cosmic horrors in fiction around..

>eldritch

enjoy

I downloaded Nyaruko today, is it any good?
>>
>>320700427
>>>/a/ ask there
>>
>>320700180
The japanese should never be allowed to touch Lovecraft.
>>
Demonbane actually incorporates the Lovecraft lore into it pretty well despite being silly as fuck at times.
>>
>>320700427
It's complete shit ruined by a tremendous faggot MC. Nyaruko is very cute and the best girl though.

But Bloodborne was an excellent take on Lovecraft
>>
>>320700180
Bloodborne, despite not being technically true to Lovecrafts general opinion that human beings are powerless against the old ones, unless they ram a fucking boat into one, is pretty Lovecraftian. One of the new areas in The Old Hunters is basically Innsmouth. The aliens are pretty fucking squidlike too.

Darkest Dungeon likes to think of itself as Lovecraftian also. And no, nothing is as cute as Nyaruko.
>>
Season 3 literally never ever.
RIP Kuuko, you will be missed.
>>
Only thing I can think of is the VN Saya no Uta. not vidya, but close enough.
>>
>>320700427
Yes and the ova is perfect
>>
>>320700579
>not Kuuko
I liked Hastur but I wish they gave him more to do

>>320700927

>liking Hastr

I can at least understand Kuuko (even if Nyaruko is still best girl) but Hastr was boring as fuck.
>>
>>320700970
you'd think that it would be to their advantage to reuse character models and just map more songs
>>
>>320701308
There's probably going to be DLC out the ass, and changing region on vita is annoying, so i passed.
>>
>>320700180
Saya No Uta you fucking faggot.
>>
>>320701368
I've got 2 vitas so I'll probably just use one for it specifically

>tfw its cheaper to just buy a whole nother system than to buy another memory card

Until he starts lusting after MILF-thulhu that is.
Like damn son, nothing better than some trappy /ss/
>>
>>320700180
try Eternal Darkness, is one of the best lovecraftian shit along with call of cthulhu
>>
>>320700623
i think me means the shit eating moe otakus
>>
Call of Cthulhu Dark corners of the earth

good horror game
>>
>>320700180

I guess Shadow of the Colossus
>>
>>320700180
Bloodbore
Call of cthulu (supposed sequel inbound)
Heart of darkness
Amnesia (don't play machine for pigs)

I think for the truest Lovecraft experience play call of cthulu, it's actually really fun just requires a bit of tinkering to fix some game breaking issues but it's amazing
>>
>>320700427
oh god this show is fucking terrible, all the characters are overbearing and shitty.
if you are a high functioning autistic you might enjoy this shit.
>>
>>320703492
Perfect, thanks
>>
>>320703454
I meant eternal darkness also can't believe no mention of call of cthulu
>>
>>320703492
All of the characters except for the one in the pic are pretty boring in all honesty
>>
>>320700427
I liked the Kamen Rider references and at least there's a good reason why the main character doesn't want to hit the harem of women (and shota) throwing themselves at him.
>>
>>320701523
>MILF-thulhu

Interesting. Tell me more.
>>
>Japan appropriating white culture

fucking shitlord racists
>>
No love For shadow of the comet?
>>
>>320701427
there's nothing lovecraft about saya no puta
>>
>>320704618
i think the main character having meat vision is fairly lovecraftian.
