HR Giger Was An Overrated Tattoo Artist

[Jimmy Rustler]

None of you plebs ever even mention Zdislaw Beksinski.

I've seen several posts mention that name, are you new here?

Judging by all the games with imagery based on Giger's and Beksinski's artworks being tagged as "Lovecraftian", despite containing no Lovecraft imagery whatsoever, then yes, none of these "plebs" ever even heard of Giger or Beksinski. :P

Observe how cool the OP is for liking the less well-known artist and ****ting on the more mainstream one. We all wish we could be as big a hipster as Jummy Rustler, instead of plebs who don't know the artist he likes.

Unfortunately Beksinski is less well known

The artist Beksinski is mentioned in reviews about the game, too. His name has been thrown around the forums, as well. Why are you ignoring the obvious?

tO bE fAiR ... Beksinski is as famous as Giger outside of North America.

but on that same note .. OP clearly hasn't read any of the actual coverage of this game in journals or magazines from North America, all of which clearly talk about Peklar's influence from Beksinski and Giger.

I have repeatedly mentioned him to my friends!
I am so glad you know his work!




Though I will say a lot of people have been mentioning him but you are right tons of people don't seem to know of his existence and just cling to everything being Giger

i wish they still taught phonetics in school, so many people would feel so much more confident in trying to pronounce things, even wrongly. you shouldn't feel bad for trying.

lol, I hear you.

z - diz - lav

just kind of slur the z-d, kind of like how some words will slur "t" and "s" like tsunami. In linguistics this is called a sibilant affricate which in English is like the "ch" and "j" sounds.

Don't know if OP is on elit-ism or etil-ism

1. I did not see anything yellow in this game but few buttons, thus it is definetly has nothing to do with Zdislaw Beksinski.
2. This is literrely insane to compare creator of Xenomorph and a man whose whole career is based on parasitizing on Dali and snorting yellow paint.
3. Calm down Psheck, no one knew about your (one and only) surrealism artist except for residents of post-Soviet countries anyway.
