>For some lore reason or another, killing people generates orgone and killing people horrifically, so that they have a traumatic and suffering-filled death, generates more. I guess that's why horrible human sacrifices work to power rituals.
To be absolutely fair in hindsight this magic system isn't really unique to CT. Like RIFTS also has this where sacrificing beings generate more Magic at their point of death (or Potential Psychic Energy = PPE in that setting). Various system also had their version of a rape machine (although CT is the most descriptive). Honestly the Q battery is the only thing that's truly horrifically unique that they did, and in all fairness IMO it's more effective at conveying how magic of Cthulhu is fucked up with technological advancement (at least better than the rape machine).

>You know, in retrospect it's kinda funny that they didn't use teenagers to pilot the not!EVAs. I mean, I hardly think THAT was considered edgier or more unsafe.
I think they were going that route with the White Xenomixes from the descriptions at least of them being state watched and very young and empathic, but stopped to let them become more than just a mecha option.

Parts of CT I just nostalgically adore because it's a good mix of anime, early 2000s edge, and cosmic horror. You don't see it nowadays and those that tries to do so kinda misses the point or isn't genuine about it.
