Besides Bloodborne, what games did cosmic horror best?
>>
>>741828848
Truth be told, Bloodborne is the only Fromsoft souls "apocalypse" that actually scares me. Many of them come off as oddly comfy since you can just set up a nice little zone and live your life as you please. In Bloodborne you're trapped in a nightmare, everything's going to shit, and everyone else is turning into aliens.

I'm tired of pretending Fromslop games have good stories.

In bloodborne you can just wake up to a reality where Yharnam is mostly normal but most people have "died" in their sleep because they're dreaming another reality.

Basically what people don't get is that the intro spells out to you.
You show up and there is a blood minister telling you to get into Yharnam you need a bit of Yharnam blood so he gives you a transfusion and then beast comes for you.

What isn't shown is in that reality the hunter hailed from, the city is probably mostly dead save for a few, hell that guy might be some sort of Moon Presence bot operating at the lowest level.
Everybody in the city went into an eternal sleep like Micolash after taking in the old blood and entered a dream version of Yharnam that we see in the game.

Nobody remembered when it happened and never realized they entered a higher plane.

No one
No game will ever come close to it

Call of Cthulhu: Dark Corners of Earth on the original Xbox. Haven't finished it because scary but pretty sure it had something cosmic about it. Uktena 64.

you just reminded me of the bb adaptation by that faggot youtuber

>>741830154
Yes, exactly. And you can't "just wake up," from it.

>>741829151
Nobody said they do. They have atmosphere

>you can just wake up
When you use the hunter's mark to "awaken" you're still stuck in yharnam, if it was that easy to leave everyone would simply fuck off
As for it being a dream or not, it doesn't really matter as dreams are real places as are the things that happen in them
Take the submit ending with the milkweed rune and in the cutscene you'll wake up into the morning stuck forever as a broccoli headed monstrosity that you became during the night

Micolash was alive in his dream until you woke him up.
God that's the most horrific thing in the game. Him just assuming he'll actually wake up and be bitter he he'd forget the dream knowledge.
