Yup, no need for things like Innocence or Symphogears to harm them, you just have to hit them real hard In one Conan story, it's noted that the summoned daemon, had to abide by SOME of reality's rules and as such had organs and could die due to brain trauma

Also, actually truly being in the same plane of existence as it or close enough, Guts and his Dragonslayer might eventually become something of “Astral Beings” like Skull Knight if they keep on being covered in demon flesh Or simply put, you gotta hit their “real body” instead of their avatars...

Yeah, even look at the DLC, the Heart really isn't the biggest thing around The nearby farmstead's got a gestating version of the Heart's own eldritch species around If even a bunch of washed up nobodies with regular steel can kill off swathes of the Hamlet's horrors, then so can that worlds'...

I think unless the Darkest Dungeon gets to torture and intoxicate you into madness, the real despair will be knowing all you’ve done in pursuit of your goal was absolutely worthless All that time, money, effort and lives lost for nothing And by the looks of it you’re also stuck in a timeloop...

At times, I wonder if people actually read Lovecraft’s works at times I’ve tried pointing out before to guys on r/DresdenFiles that to varying degrees, Eldritch Abominations like the Outsiders CAN be scientifically understood and that REH and Lovecraft shared the same setting and it’s not too...

https://aoc.fandom.com/wiki/Mitra He’s an opponent of Set who maybe another guise for Nyarlathotep

Why would they also suddenly give so much of a damn, it’s not as if they’re gonna live till they’re 100 or that it would happen in their lifetime And why do they suddenly have so much enthusiasm regarding world history and mankinds’ success and marks on the world? Do they even KNOW history...

@The Immortal Watch Dog Say, what would Conan have to say to “civilized” fools like this one? I mean to begin with, guy can just off himself before that and there’s no guarantee those eldritch horrors will NOT make it quick

Honestly, when I think about it, best way for Eldritch Abominations to truly have a chance at breaking guys like Conan would be through sheer torture and overwhelming his dopamines Or taking advantage of them having doubts regarding their faith or being obsessed with revenge or something or...

Possibly still insignificant, Lovecraft shares the setting with Robert E Howard and Clark Ashton Smith Many many many many millenia from now, well it looks like humanity is destined to only remain on this planet and eventually be replaced by bugs Wish we could have traveled and colonized space...

People forget that the Alien Races in Lovecraft were PHYSICAL BEINGS like us The Shoggoths are NOT Eldritch Abominations or even from another dimension. They are products of SCIENCE. The Elder Races FOUGHT Cthulhu and his Starspawn, they didn't just fall to madness and despair, they FOUGHT...

I think it was noted by Conan or another Sword&Sorcery Protagonist that when it comes to things from Beyond-The-Veil The moment they cross dimensions, they need to have SOME following of reality’s rules And as such they need ACTUAL organs, particularly brains

Robert E Howard who shares the very same setting however shows that the REAL stupidity is "civilized men" with real big brains and too much hyper-analysis or pseudo-intellectualism care too much about their own significance even when deep down they know even without eldritch horrors they do not...

Not just modern life, but I think even "civilised life" in an Iron Aged society counts

But with more advanced technology and constantly and willingly traveling throughout Space-Time Civilization however, as shown in REH’s works, even mere bronze to iron aged settled ones, could degrade this sort of spirit

https://elderscrolls.fandom.com/wiki/Dwemer They do this by becoming the Dwemer, they don’t go insane or be in awe when confronted with Eldritch Supernatural beings because they are able to analyse them scientifically and go “they are JUST really powerful beings” I think it can be said that...

Except that which we put value into regardless, also because dudes like Conan when confronted by it can “Just Not Care” and go on loving life and flirting with death regardless

In a way, I think its only really to the Narrator that so many things are so extremely horrific, when in-universe even when dangerous they’re not “too different” to be incapable of comprehension or empathy I think even REH made non-whites who were “villains” a sort of Alternate Character...

The Elder Things though were as said by the narrator “Men” of a different sort, Alien=/=Eldritch Abomination. Way more advanced, physically powerful and perhaps longer lived, maybe different culture and differences in morality but still way closer to “human mindsets” than Eldritch Abominations...

Unlike Berserk or Warhammer, there may not even BE a plot involving actively using humans for anything
