Painticus's video: Getting Lovecraft Wrong - Lust for Darkness

Getting Everything Else Wrong: https://youtu.be/-qRmTgNtlVE The Best Lovecraftian Game: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=nNeMVsQ9fe8 Lovecraft Playlist: https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PLy7D9q03plawMjjKRBtyZqEEfLdmp5ULS Subscribe if you have no standards: https://www.youtube.com/channel/UC3OycnktjrKQzATI3Uovlow?sub_confirmation=1 Lust for Darkness claims to be inspired by Lovecraft, but when does inspiration turn into exploitation? In this video I explore many of the thematic pitfalls that this game falls into when attempting to recreate the work of Lovecraft. It's not uncommon for games/movies to use the name of HPL for marketing reasons. In fact, it has become so common that the general perception of Lovecraft's work is becoming diluted down to tentacles and space stuff, when in reality, it's so much more. Music used: S.T.A.L.K.E.R. OST Thanks for watching!
