Why the fuck is it so goddamn hard to make a real Lovecraftian survival horror?
> Bloodborne
> Call of Cthulhu (2005 and that 2018 joke)
> shitty Unity indies with purple fog and tentacle assets from the asset store
Fuck off. None of this captures Lovecraft. Not even close. These are either edgy Dark Souls mods with Victorian hats or walking simulators with "ooh spooky fishmen" slapped on. Where is actual descent into madness? Where is the feeling of hopelessness, insignificance, dread? I want to question my own sanity, not crouch-walk through generic cultist basements. Lovecraft isn't about guns or boss fights. It's about staring into the void and realizing you’re a fucking speck. And somehow no one can put that into a game? What the fuck are game devs even doing? We get 20 open world survival crafting simulators every month and not one dev can make a proper cosmic horror game. Embarrassing. Absolute state of this industry.
Make a game where the final boss is a choice between suicide or going insane jerking off to a writhing god that doesn’t know you exist. Anything. Just stop pretending “look, tentacle!” = Lovecraft.

Fucking disgrace.
