Besides darkest dungeon and bloodborne, what games have strong and somewhat faithful lovecraftian themes?
Call of Cthulhu dark corners of the earth

Papers, Please
Replace forms with letters, checkpoint with a house with gambrel roof and walk to the post office once you're done stamping the envelopes.
Eventually hide from non existing enemies. And stop calling anything with a squid Lovecraftian you inbred American faggot.

no

>i didn't play the game but i will shitpost anyway
Not fooling anyone son.

From that i read, The Secret World is very Lovecraftian at times.
Eternal darkness is basically Lovecraft - the game
If you could take Resident Evil 4 by itself, I think it could fit.
Without all the retarded viral / parasitic explanations for the plagas.

amnesia the dark descent
>>330906302
games mentioned are not lovecraftian because of squids, they follow the central themes of cosmicism, nihilism and the unknowable. you are a retard
>>330906219
call of cthulhu lacks all the important aspects mentioned above
>>330907117
TSW is kinda cool, well written and the some of the quests are refreshingly different and difficult.
Combat is nothing special though.

Just because DCOTE includes squids doesn't mean it lacks the features mentioned.

>Bloodborne is not Lovecraftian meme
>Events of the game are perpetuated by incomprehensible cosmic beings and the institutions that worships them
>DLC is has a portion that's literally Shadow Over Innsmouth
Maybe if you spent some time feeding your brain with superior American burgers, you wouldn't be such a retard.
Grim Dawn
There's a cult dedicated to some old god named Ch'thon.
eternal darkness does it the best

Dead Space pham, the lore is pretty fucked up what with giant meat moons wiping the galaxy clean of all life and all

>lovecraftian
I seriously hope you are baiting

Plagiarism is okay when Fromsoft does it.
>>330909906
How is it not? Regardless of whether you think it's a good game it's pretty heavily inspired by Lovecraft.
>>330909906
I never played Bloodborne: the post
>>330910070
It's bordering on plagiarism but Lovecraft never gave a shit about people referencing and building on the mythos he built up.
>>330909906
it has so much throwbacks to lovecraft and weird fiction it ain't even funny
>>330907609
>games mentioned are not lovecraftian because of squids, they follow the central themes of cosmicism, nihilism and the unknowable. you are a retard
What is it with you squidwards that you co-opt themes others have already done masterfully to a hack writer?
Oh and imagery does not Lovecraftian make.
>>330909906
I hope YOU are baiting.
>>330911924
I suggest you do the bare minimum and read the lovecraft entry on wikipedia before looking like a retard on the internet
Magrunner: Dark Pulse works up to it..
>>330911924
It's not as if there's a fucking copyright on nihilism, more than one author can write about it.
Silent Hill is more Lovecraftian than Bloodborne
>>330912481
The point is exactly that Lovecraft fags always cherrypick themes from other works and call them Lovecraftian. God forbid they read Ligotti, Blackwood or Dunsany.
Saya no Uta.
And in a broader sense, Parasite Eve.
