Having a fictional religion for a fictional diety is a bad thing? Wouldn't it be better to just be constantly butthurt at SMT or something?

Ar Tonelico and Breath of Fire II come to mind as some JRPGs that influenced the narrative. Adding in Fate/Stay Night and Hellsing as well
>>
>>736360231
The Catholic Church were the 'bad guys' in Hellsing because the Protestants/Anglicans were the good guys.
So Church (of England) good.

Anyway that’s basically how a lot media with evil churches work. In some of them the gods are evil and in some of them the church is an organization used to extend the power of an evil person but not evil itself. It’s true the most people can’t tell the difference

Because of the shit you said. They don't want it to be used by anyone except them so it isn't diluted into a generic medical symbol and loses its protective status. It's not just to be greedy dicks, they're trying to prevent FUCKING WAR CRIMES from being committed against medical personnel in active warzones.
>>
>>736358431
No you are not. They never actually took anyone to court and won, everyone is just a fucking pussy and capitulated to the bullying
>>
>>736360231
The Church in the Nasuverse is explicitly heroic. They are unambiguously a pro-human organization that is competent at their work.
>>
>>736361341
Then medical personnel shouldn't go into active warzones. Sending people in to patch up retarded third worlders so they can go back to killing each other is retarded.

I hope you receive exactly as much compassion as you show.
>>736362026
Yes. The Red Cross/Crescent/Crystal are symbols intended to mark people (medical personnel), vehicles (ambulances) and buildings (hospitals) that it is a FUCKING WAR CRIME to attack, as stated by the Geneva Conventions. If the Red Cross just lets anyone use their symbols for whatever, and those symbols become just generic medical symbols, then they do in fact lose their protective power, which depends entirely on people knowing that the symbols mark stuff that it is a FUCKING WAR CRIME to shoot. That's a lot more important than video games.

there isnt, no matter how much you screech about it, what you are talking about are what the winner uses on the losers to justify the actions took after winning, international law isnt a thing if you cant enforce it, which is why america can just ignore it and has and nothing happens, its not real

War crimes have been a thing since 1474, and no amount of sticking your fingers in your ears and going "LALALALALA I CAN'T HEAR YOU I'M RIGHT BECAUSE I SAY SO LALALALALA" will change that. I live in the country where war criminals are put on trial.

Give it time. The Nuremberg trials didn't happen while WW2 was still ongoing. America has pissed off pretty much all of its former allies, the current administration won't last forever.
>>736363473
They don't want to take any chances whatsoever. It starts with little stuff and before you know it, the symbol becomes a generic thing like band-aids or jetskis. They want to nip that shit in the bud before it becomes a problem and innocent lives are endangered. You would understand why that is a problem if you had even a drop of compassion.

so what your saying is you cant enforce a warcrime without the country selectively enforcing it on itself, after the fact, using it as a justification because they didnt like the last guy

nta, but that's how laws have worked since forever. Pick up any random history book and you'll see countless kings abuse their power and break their own laws with no repercussions so long as they maintain they're position of power.

No, I'm saying laws are often not enforced on those in charge.

Are you trying to make a philosophical point? If so you're doing a terrible job at it.

In the original you saved at kings, iirc. I think the (Save) text in church-saving games is relatively new, though.
