If it helps my vison is a combo of Deadlands and Call of Cthulu.
I insist that in your setting the Civil War never ended because Cthulhu was pleased by the carnage and kept raising the dead to fight the living any time it seemed a decisive victory was about to occur.

This reminds me of a game I stumbled onto on Xbox, that uh, might just be called Cthulu?! Call of Cthulu?! That was a kind of spooky mystery horror game that I enjoyed until I got too scared to finish it, lmao.
If it was an older game, it might’ve been Call of Cthulhu: Dark Corners of the Earth. Very loosely based on the story of the same name. First person? There’s a bit at the beginning with the main character investigating a creepy old house with a bunch of cultists in it and in the basement he finds some horrific device that opens a portal and lets in one of the Great Race of Yith.
Did you get to the part where J. Edgar Hoover comes to Innsmouth with a bunch of Feds and is a general assholish dick?
ETA: The full name of
this operational battle stationgame. -
@tsar That is part of the inspiration for the game! I love that game!
-
Random idea, and no real details beyond vague bullet points.
Game set in current era
Lovecraftian influences has limited technology or caused it to adapt differently
Everything is 1920s in aesthetic but you can then add meaningful tech advances that allow for that alt-tech feel such as steampunkBake the aesthetic into the theme, but provide modern adaptations.
I am sleep deprived so could have probably presented this more eloquently.
1920s aesthetic.
Lovecraftian themes.And now posted to the right thread.

I feel like we’re overcomplicating things.
Lol. What. No. We NEVER DO THAT.
but you summed it up nicely.
-
@GF I’m very guilty of this all the time. But in a nutshell, yes that is it!
-
Now to start to learn to code and build. INTO THE CREATION MINES!

ETA: The full name of
this operational battle stationgame.This sounds familiar! I remember it taking place in really dilapidated seaside town, and you’re a private eye? At some point I think I was in an old hospital.
-
@tsar THAT IS IT!
-
@BloodAngel I have a renewed interest in finishing this game now, thanks, lol.
-
Now I kinda wanna play the Sinking City again.
-
@Testament Great game!
-
@tsar Yeah, it’s basically just The Dunwich Horror, I think? Gotta fight Dagon Fish People?
Edit: no, I am dumb, Dagon is in Innsmouth, so more likely Shadow over Innsmouth? It’s spooky, I only know the end because of a let’s play.
-
@Faraday Actually been writing the history, have the changes to the timeline already done up! So we do have a divergence point, that leads to why it is not the same. -
-
Also, how can I be part of the Dagon cult if I am not racist against land-dwellers whomst are all made of food?
-
So about that cthulu game

@IoleRae said in New Concept:
Sorry I thought it was related to figuring out the moving parts for the game.
No, no, you’re fine! I think that @BloodAngel mentioned a few pages back that he was figuring out his potential direction on this.
I just sometimes feel like we have a tendency (as a group, I’m also guilty!) to pile our opinions on possible new game runners to the point it probably feels overwhelming.

dey gonna have to deal with us assholes on the game. otj training

Think of all the jobs we’re saving them later. \o/
