    My feelings on the matter mirror what a lot of people have already said: You can separate the work from the artist. I'm not a big fan of today's polarizing climate where you're not allowed to see shades of gray -- the whole picture is important. I don't think it's hard to recognize the guy was a dill weed, but a dill weed who influenced many creatively. It's history now. Again, Einstein was often a prick in his life time as well, but his work is indispensable.

    Everyone should be perfectly within their right to come to their own conclusions having the full story at their hands. As far as BHVR adding a chapter dedicated to Lovecraft, I think it's potentially a bad business move at this time. The Entity is already ambiguously Lovecraftian, and small stuff like t-shirts causes a lot less hoopla.

    Thanks all for sharing your opinion, and I'm happy to see those 40 over notifications after my weekend without internet, games, just hiking for two days straight.

    So far it's interesting mature discussion about pros and cons, but sometimes a bit off the topic of Eldritch Abomination idea for next killer and Eldritch Horror Chapter. H.P Lovecraft creations went through many upgrades and additions by other writters as open source that Behaviour would as well do own interpretation and approach to possible chapter from their pov, best for Dead By Daylight of course.

    Presented idea have absolutley nothing to do with personal life, behavior, ideology of H.P Lovecraft and it's focused on his fictional characters from his fictional mythos that not explaining anything.

    Dungeons and Dragons created and licensed Illithids that for some might be strongly inspired from H.P Lovecraft but are far from any known cultists of his work - https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Illithid

    Keep droping here some ideas of that chapter theme even if Devs planing to add more licensed characters for now.


    Have fun - This is all about.
