Do you like Gnosticism in games?
>>737026426the only difference between me and the gnostics is that I am not a gnostic
>>737026453legacy of kain is the best
>>737026426Is 5 a Gnostic game when the point is "Fuck the false prophets"?Doesn't that universe have an actual true God?
>>737026426No.
>>737028009Gnostics have a true "god" too. They don't think the one the jews tell us to worship is it though.
>>737026680I like the "spiritual over material" and mystical aspects of itI just don't believe in the demiurge or that the creation of the world was a bad thingI guess I'm more partial to the traditional christian narrative of humans cursing themselves with the original sin
>>737026426No, it's always the shallow "god bad" crap and none of the interesting aspects of it.
>>737026426There's a lot of games where bodies are basically flesh prisons that the soul should escape. The most obvious gnostic game would be Xenogears which is about humans on the edge of ascending to higher plane.
>>737026426Even japs are getting subverted with this desert coonery, it's crazy how much desert stuff is influencing the world, you'd think no one has a culture or a myth of creation, this is why persona 4 is the best persona since it uses jap mythos
>>737026426why is the i and o in kino lowercase
>>737028706isn't Sophia = Lucifer
>>737028706>Gnostics have a true "god" too.No, they don't. NT and OT God are the same one, and the gnostics are being retarded about it on purpose.
>>737029502You can interpret it that way. Some sects definitely do. I personally think lucifer and christ are the same figure, bringing up the false god's bullshit to our attention.>>737029531>NT and OT are the same one. Yes, I don't debate that. NT is the goyim friendly version to make it more palatable for the masses and to further turn us into subservient cattle. You don't have to listen to me, in fact I ask that you don't. Stay on your path and I will stay on mine.
>>737029776>NT is the goyim friendly version to make it more palatable for the masses and to further turn us into subservient cattle.Yeah pretty much everyone who is not a cathopooskin knows this, that being said most desert coonery has these aspects of mass control since they are were primarly spread to help centralize control by the elites, to keep it vidya, it's probably what FF 10 was about, the guys thinking their sins are why they are getting rampaged by a giant turltle when in reality it's the elites using it to control the narrative
>>737029776>I personally think lucifer and christ are the same figureIn other words, you outright don't know what you're talking about.>You don't have to listen to me, in fact I ask that you don't.Then don't post, faggot.
Xenosaga
>>737028891Eh, this began around the 80/90s when a bunch of Japanese directors were enamored with Christianity and Kabbalah (Jewish mysticism) - Evangelion, Xenogears, etc.The East just sees this stuff as exotic and cool, meanwhile we roll our eyes because we're already familiar with it. Kinda like a Western game developer doing a story about Kaguya or adding random misplaced Torii, they probably cringe at that.
>>737028891Is it really surprising traditionally Buddhist countries would be interested in a Western theology that asserts the world is broken and full of suffering and that only escape is to achieve a form of enlightenment?
