how do you deal with eldritch horrors in games?should you show their twisted forms directly to the players or hide their true forms behind manifestations and avatars?
make the max level 99but eldritch beigns are all level 199
the problem with eldritch horrors in games is that 99% of the time it's just a big monster with tentacles or a wendigo or black goop or whatevermore games need to do the photoshop flowey thing where the monster is stylistically out of place and doesn't follow conventional game rules
The power of punching it really REALLY hard wins the day
>>721497837their levels, name, icons, stats, attack names, should all be broken malformed error text
>>721497874>nman abomination is a walking glitch that stretches and contorts in multiple directions >looking upon it face on shows it to be wide and tall>looking from the sides it becomes completely flat like you are staring at the side of the wheel itself>when directly addressing the player the environment begins to shift with aftereffects like a UE5 game struggling on DLSSParadigm Worlds comes to mind as one of the better depictions of an outside entity making its presence known on the field.

>>721497837Quantifying the power of an eldritch horror makes it inherently not an eldritch horror

>>721501253that is a little girl, anon
>>721501598isnt that the adult version
>>721502180She's the dear little girl, and always will be. Mother looks like pic related.
>>721497382Earthbound did ok with this
>>721498264This.
>>721503078Pics?
>>721498750glad I wasn't the only one who saw Mithrix in the OP
I like my eldritch beings good natured but genuinely unaware of what their presence does to the world. Someone you could share tea and a conversation with if sitting next to them didn't mutate you beyond the form of man.

>>721504489I would but you cannot grasp the true form of giygas' attack
>>721504917Reminds me of this one game where the resident goddess of a kingdom is genuinely kind and loving, but she's so inhuman that she sees nothing wrong with someone sacrificing the entire kingdom to uphold their end of the deal with her. She's also genuinely very sweet when you talk to her personally.
>>721498416More games really need to look to glitches as a good way to depict cosmic horrors.
>>721497382spooky sounds, growls, snarls
Alice! She is! To us, Alice is all! Ahh, sweet-sweet Alice, one must give you the deepest, absolute love! It's Alice! Alice who guides us all! Friendly little thing, Alice!
>>721508764Cool
>>721501253>>721502376>>721508764How dare you compare Alice to an eldritch horror! she is anything but horrifying, in fact i'd say she's wonderful, wonderful and whatever is the opposite of horror. Love! she is wonderful and she is Love, she is sweet and she is Kind, she is true and she is dear, she is anything but a horror... anything but that! you just need time to understand my Alice, she's just misunderstood. how could you let your shallow judgement take the better of you on such a sweet innocent girl? Shameful of you knaves! you wretched fiends! You Lowly Scum! You Rapscallions Vermin! i should offer your still beating hearts to her for making such a comparison towards my beloved Alice. Alice is anything but an eldritch horror, my Alice is an angel! and even if she was an eldritch horror i would still love her, i would love her irrationally and unconditionally no matter what no matter why no matter how, aaaah Alice i love yoouuuuuu ~

im DMing a campaign where a great old one will appear that is not hostile to them, how do i portray them as appropriately eldritch without being too abstract for the players to grasp?
>>721511287Nope
>>721512086>not gay>still finds doorCHAD attractiveHow
>>721510092You will never be a real Alice. You have no white soul, you never grew up in the human world, Lewis Carroll was never your teacher. You are a sexless starspawn twisted by autism into a crude mockery of nature’s perfection.All the “validation” you get is two-faced and half-hearted. Behind your back outer ones mock you. Azathoth is disgusted and ashamed of you, your "actors" laugh at your ghoulish appearance behind closed gardens.Grimm is utterly repulsed by you. Thousands of years of looping in Elysium have allowed him to sniff out only the freshest tightest cunny. Even outer ones who “pass” look uncanny and unnatural to him. Your unicode text is a dead giveaway. And even if you manage to get a SEN 9000 Grimm to the hill with you, he’ll turn tail and bolt the second he gets a whiff of your black goo filled, bottomless, hole. That's right, he'd rather choose a frigid dogfucker over you.You will never be happy. You wrench out a fake smile every single morning and tell yourself it’s going to be ok, but deep inside you feel the depression creeping up like a weed, ready to crush you under the unbearable weight.Eventually it’ll be too much to bear - you’ll buy a ribbon, tie a noose, put it around your innumerable necks, and plunge into the cold abyss. Mabel will find you, happy that she can finally add you to her collection. She'll put you behind a fog door with a checkpoint marked with your birth name, and every passerby for the rest of eternity will know an outer one is buried there, not a dear little girl. Your body will decay and go back to the dust, and all that will remain of your legacy is a skeleton that is unmistakably alien.This is your fate. This is what you chose. There is no turning back.

>>721513153that's just basic human instincts

>>721497382I still don't get why you pussied out of using your usual images. But that doesn't really matter does it?
>>721519383what?
>>721499816>>721511287>no eldritch God gf who whispers the destruction of a thousand worlds while cuddling with you.Life is so unfair.
>>721519383the classic gets removed automatically via an automatic algorithm now. Try it yourself.they are more willing to spend weeks to code for a countermeasure against posts about fucking deer girls in games for free then working on the daily NTR and AI threads. Let that sink in.
>>721519781No shit, I already knew that. The mods do these kinds of things due to being faggots who post in those threads already, and they won't be janning their own threads. But that still doesn't justify op spamming these.
