Why are all Cthulhu games so bad after Shadow of the Comet?
There's such a deep lore but it's never used in the games. They're so atrociously boring and poorly done.
>>
Modern videogame writers don't actually read literature, so all of their knowledge about Lovecraft is taken from other audiovisual pop culture.

Unable to decide if you're being ironic, I come to the conclusion that you are right.

There are plenty of other gods/ancients, yet devs focus on Cthulhu and Dagon. Just like there are plenty of interesting places (like the plateau of Leng), yet devs focus on Innsmouth and Arkham.
It's so goddam lazy.

I just noticed Cthulhu isn't even holding him. It seems like he just can't swim

funny how h-games pay better respect to lovecraft's themes than actual high budget products claiming to be his spiritual successors.

Many such cases.

No, there's not.

What you're referring to is a bunch of shit made up by people who aren't Lovecraft. Lovecraft didn't really flesh out his shit much at all because he didn't really care to. He was mostly just writing spooky short stories. And they weren't all about "cosmic horror". He also wrote about things like good old fashioned zombies.
