The Lovecraft Investigations is an audiodrama and may well be my favourite Lovecraft homage in any medium...and that category has some serious competition, I love you, too, Bloodbourne! ^(you just aren't the only one...)

For people who have no idea what I am talking about / want to watch Season 1-4 for free on any pod-dooverlaki: https://www.pleasantgreen.co.uk/about/

Each Season follows a Lovecraft story: The Case of Charles Dexter Ward, The Whisperer in Darkness, The Shadow Over Innsmouth & The Haunter in the Dark so far.

Season 4 was a little short and hurried due to BBC cuts so Season 5 is now entirely fan backed...so if you want to make it longer, weirder and more indulgent, please sign up.

Julian Simpson is the writer and a one-man-band so to make yourself contactable, he needs your email bunged into Backerkit. The less admin we make him do the more he can write!

Please let me know if that link doesn't work for you, it is from my email and I don't know what I am doing :)

I was on the fence from the cartoony graphics, it is very silly in the best way possible.

Each of your 6 Ability Scores chime in with advice, taunts, random ideas...this is the closest to a real implementation of Ultima IV's virtue system in a modern game.

They each have a political approach to life which could easily be substituted for Virtue-based philosophy.

Apparently this was done in Disco Elysium before...I need to check that out.

Just played it solidly through all Saturday and Sunday, amazing game and it took a while for the penny to drop.

Planescape: Torment is definitely in its DNA as well although instead of reading a novel in text it is chatty entertaining conversations.

Would love to see Esoteric Ebb modded to Ultima virtues!
