Playing a low Intelligence character in Call of Cthulhu
ADHD mode says “wow that’s pretty fucked up, but if I ain’t gunna understand it then I’ll go do something else I guess.”
in my experience, most ppl would poke extraordinary things with a stick or pen or something.
And in doing so, gain some understanding of the horror.
After that first hit of understanding, though, it’s all over. Humans have a cultural if not innate tendancy towards curiosity. Even if it is ill-advised.
It’s been a while since I played, but I don’t remember this being in Psychonauts.
honestly this is just how most monsters are, like oooo wow how scary a fucking amorphous blob of darkness and tentacles, truly scary stuff!
The scariest things are that which are too easy to comprehend, where you completely understand why it’s like that.
If I saw that I would say “damn you look scary but not quite as scary as the current state of the world and where its heading”
