>religion badWhy are western devs so brave?
>>743289043The citadel is literally atheist though.

>>743289043not a thing in nortubel tho
>>743289043>Spend the entire first two point oh five acts of this three act story acting as the Gandalf mentor figure to a small religious pilgrim going on a classic Hero's journey where he is tested and builds a deeper connection to his religious beliefs beyond the surface level trappings being pushed by those who are in charge of a complete desecration of his faithYeah, OK "religion bad".Silksong is actually about UK public infrastructure and institutions, but we're not ready to have that discussion
>westAustralia is the East
Organized religion is bad though, especially christianity which is just built around worshipping mortal men and giving them all of their money. There never should be any "churches" or "priests" or religious institutions, people who are faithful should do it in their own homes or non-profit public places.>inb4 le reddit le tranny etcYou have no idea how bad it is here in Polska. Priests are straight up scamming old and desperate people out of their money and drive around in expensive cars while being worshipped as hard or maybe harder than God or Jesus. And you have them unironically preaching to old farts about politics. Then the second you're against a "holy man" for any reason, you're the literal anti-christ.
All religions
Silksong's story feels like a very bad copycat of Blasphemous 1's story with none of the gravitas and style of Escribar compared to the annoying little twat Lace i absolutely despised over my playthough.
>>743289273What the fuck would 3 dudes from Adelaide know about UK public infrastructure lmao
>>743293001You didn't play either game if you came to this conclusion
>>743293605Both Silksong and B1 deal with horrors of institutionalized religion when the entity they worship starts actively meddling with the setting, B1 approaches it through twisted spirituality and its Son of Miracle is a tragic and stoic figure, Silksong approaches it through boring caricature of institutionalized religion and its own holy figure is a literal retarded silk doll with attitude.

>>743289043Its brilliant
>>743289043>false religion badI fail to see the issue. This is like complaining about Stargate.
>>743295420>false religion>heavily based on a true religion and makes commentary on said religionRetard-kun...
>>743296501>woooow this videogame is just like le real le life!!!
>religion good
>>743290403Cool it with the antisemitism, hot-shot.
>>743289476Polska isn't the center of the world and your experiences with organized religion aren't universal.
>>743296654"Religious institution bad but religious people good" is and always will be a kino trope.
>>743296654religion... nuanced?
>>743297148What he described is a universal phenomenon. From before agriculture had been invented to now, there have been countless frauds and schizophrenics that either claim to be divine or that they commune with the divine. They always worm their way into politics, too.
>>743297148i live in greece and i second what the polish guy said. organized religion, as anything organized, is bound to be corrupted. i will never understand western orthodox larpers, orthodoxy is literally the worship of saints and mary the virgin. if you dare suggest that only jesus deserves praise youll be called a heretic. truly maddening stuff
Good for whom? Bad for whom? These are the questions you need ask yourself dear faggot
>>743297645Most westerners who go apeshit about Orthodoxy just want better aesthetics for their fundamentalism than the local boring protestant church..
