@@gunther141 yeah, his size it's like a big whale. The only problem is when you find his body hidden in Black Watter, and because of the "madness effect", you can't full aim in his squid form and fully appreciate the alien.
@@Mugg___ Isn't his full body under the water in blackwater scene? And he is like Ctulhu. And as we know, and Lovecraft wrote. Ctulhu is as big, as you fear.
Go into the water where his corpse is I dare you that s$%t freaked me out as someone who just got into the cthulhu mythos seeing leviathan and bravely diving into the water gave me a sense of insignificance seeing something so large I felt that at any moment it would snatch me up and devour me I swear this game gave me thallasophobia and megalophobia
I prefer the european game The Land of Pain. This is the Cthulhu games, in terms like lovecraftian cold, dark and isolated ambientation, most natural and realistic that I've watched.
what do you mean, you only see Cthulhu a lesser great old one, a priest of Yog Sothoth for a split second not even letting you speak with him it just shows the ensuing chaos and madness from his presence, in my opinion that's exactly how Lovecraft would've wanted him to be represented in a video game.
@@pillarmenn1936 Another major theme of Lovecraft's cosmic horror is the idea that there are forces which are beyond Humanity's ability to control, and who are almost totally apathetic to our existence. Bloodborne's story revolved around the idea of people trying to utilize the blood of the old gods to elevate themselves in the universe, and having it backfire horrendously by turning them all into eldritch monsters.
@@Nyrufa You got something wrong there. The old ones in Bloodborne were not apathetic, not even close. Many of them actually helped humanity but because of the difference in thought process, it didn't go the way humans wanted it. Not only that, many of the old ones also show human-like emotion and feelings such as the yearning for children, jealousy of others (if the theory of Moon Presence wanting kids is true), and the willingness to help others (Kos granting the wish of the fishermen)
What a chill Eldritch monster.
For a given amount of chill.
Leviathan is a squid serpent, but weve never seen his full body, I wonder what full leviathan looks like.
It looks like a whale in the game. That’s why I’m much of the intro, they talk about the Scylla finding “the whale”. And you can kinda see it here

Thank you so much for the vid, the sound turned off when this cutscene came on and wouldn’t turn back on
I really loved this game. But the title was misleading though. I would’ve called it: “Darkwater: The Mysterious Case of the Hawkins Family”.
5 Jhon wick vs Leviatán
Leviatan is a serpent
This game shows too much and therefore takes the wind out of the lovecraftian horror which comes from the unknown, the hidden, the unfathombale.
NOT SCIENTIFICALLY POSSIBLE!
Bloodborne shows all of their lovecraftian horrors and lets you kill them and its hailed as one of the best interpretations of the mythos
