Why did they switch the monster design from promotional material?

I mean mole man is neat. But eldritch crawly boy would be way spookier in my opinion

Oh, right. Lol. Guess the monster does look quite a bit different.

They don't want to be a spoiler.

But that IS the monster in the final game.

BRUH!!! Thank you! I wrote a thread about the monster and was wondering if I just imagined things or got baited by some artist to think that the monster look crawly and scary. I'm just glad that other people saw that too. xD Honestly I feel baited by the promised crawler.

I don't get why a creepy crawly eldritch monster gets scratched for some random ghoul boi. And even if the monster looks like the promised one in the end. The thing hunting you is just some NPC ghoul to me. It's not a movie where they have to look at their budget and put some make-up on some dude instead of making some CGI crawly.

It's the same monster, just shrouded in dark and with head turned to side. MOdel in game maybe a bit jankier looking, but it does have general shape of the monster in a game.
Mock ups and concept arts have that tendency, because they are not made in engine, most of the time.

They didn't
