Had to scroll this far for this baka. Darkness Within is literally like distilling Lovecraft's works into a black thicc goop and injecting it into your veins. Best Lovecraftian work I ever played and a really good introduction to the general theme of his works if you hate books.

>> No.5549614

Half Life's Nihilanth was pretty fucked up in the Lovecraftian sense

One of those things you don't realize until you go back and play through it again after learning about all of this stuff.
It had a lot of things that really fit the mythos
