H.P. Lovecraft’s Influence in Gaming Explained
H.P. Lovecraft's influence within gaming is vast, and despite what one might suspect, it is not limited to the horror genre. From Amnesia: The Dark Descent to Bloodborne, plenty of titles have embraced Lovecraftian horror, leading to interesting gameplay mechanics that make players feel like their character's sanity is getting bent. Lovecraft's cosmic horrors have also inspired toe-curlingly terrifying enemies, and developers will likely continue to draw from his works for many years to come. This is certainly not a bad thing, as Lovecraftian horror has proven to be a trove of dark science fiction for artists to draw from.
