I’ve talked before about how I hate that tma betrayed its cosmic horror genre by making codification of all things be the tool that takes the Fears down (especially given that the first statement that Jon reads is the fragment about watching and taking notes being useless), but I also really hate how much it betrayed the horror genre overall by hating its monsters. not even Helsing et. al killing Dracula had as much malice and irresponsibility to the narrative as the picrew-pandering morality circlejerk that was tma s5.
