KOTOR 2's idea of "Wounds in the Force." It was like the developers tried to make something more evil then the Dark-side and we got a huge mess of monsters who eat entire planets like Galactus. I mean was there really any point in making that when the story could have been much more simple, like remnants of Revan's empire still resisting against the Republic. Nope, we gotta go full Lovecraft!
Lovecraft meeting Star Wars would actually be awesome. Nihilius doesn't sound like Lovecraft; he sounds like an overpowered supervillain in a poorly written comic book.
