Name one (1) fictional religion in a video game that isn't portrayed in a negative light

ALL religions are fictitious though.

hitman 2

>Holy Church
>Good
>Executioners exist
>Literally employ supernatural maniacs and stone cold sociopaths to murder anything they don't like
They are sketchier than the Mages Association and that's no mean feat

A religion can be based on false beliefs and still be portrayed in a positive light.
Star Ocean 3 does it.

The Church in Trails in the Sky. One of your party members in the second one is even a Priest and he becomes the protagonist of the third game and gets a Nun companion.

Religion in Elder Scrolls is handled pretty alright.

Any and all religions in Seiken Densetsu games. Specially Legend of Mana, where [you] are, in fact, the child of the goddess and are working to restore her.
Most religions in SaGa games are also equally beneficial to the setting. Specially in Romancing SaGa Minstrel Song, where Fabulous Jesus is literally your first party member, and a permanent one at that if you so choose.

Honestly about 95% of the games, from both japan and the west, propose the perfectly correct idea that there isn't anything wrong with religion whatsoever, as long as its only purpose is to spread well-be through acts of kindness to the lower common denominator or simply those in need, and that the ones at fault for tarnishing this are at the end of the day people themselves acting on their own particular wants and using religious belief as a tool or excuse for the purpose.

The Nine in Oblivion. It wasn't until Skyrim turned it into "The Eight" that there was a negative side to the last one. Beyond that all the negativity is centered on the Daedra worship in those games.

Why didn't all the non Christian lands thrive at this point and pass the western world?

Such bad bait nobody even ironically took it.

OoT Deku tree at least preached the creation story to Link, so he probably believes in it even if he wasn't an active worshipper.

Why don't you fucker give me an example were it is? In the majority of RPGS the major notChristfag or Pagan Gaia religion is benevolent or simply the force for priests to use their powers

Myria did nothing wrong. Ryu3 and his party of mongoloids literally doomed the entire planet to slow death by decay or quick death by retards with nukes starting fights. The brood were a threat and had to go so humanity could survive.

Grandia 2 is the standout example for me, and does it the best.

In the Japanese version of LttP the sanctuary is a christian church for some reason, and they kept the crosses in the adjacent graveyard

Now we are in charge of educating all the children in the continent including the ones who live in the middle of nowhere.
We also have extremely advance medical knowledge to help the people.

The Legend of Zelda. First it was supposed to be all Christian but the USA didn't like it so they changed it. Now we have the goddess Hylia and she actually helps Link. There are statues all over Hyrule and she is worshipped in a positive light.

Unlike the fucking Anime which ruined it the castlevania games are all PRO Christian church.

There are rural Han Chinese folk that practically worship Mao Tse Tung too.

Man, religion such a bullshit for a suckers. Who would buy that?

All that and more.

Alright religion suck and brainwashing.

But holy water can be used as a weapon against the evil therefore religion is good in the series. Also lots of cross related attacks

Myria's a pretty shitty goddess though, she literally just causes destruction and strife for shits and giggles, and usually by using proxies to cause problems. BoF1's whole thing was Tyr having the dragon tribes fight over her ability to grant them wishes, and after being sealed away for a time, convinces the black dragon clan to do it all over again. In BoF2, her spawn made a huge fake religion to try and cull the only creatures capable of sealing away a realm full of bad shit that wanted to murder everything. The only time she could even remotely be considered decent would be looking at her through BoF3's lens only, where she still caused tons of war and strife through proxies like the criminal organization you have to deal with and the murderbots that roam around, not to mention STILL tempting humans and other creatures with whispers of power to see it all happen. And the best excuse she can give you is that humans will kill each other if she lets them develop technology, when the entire reason there was an apocalyptic war in the first place was because SHE FUCKING ENCOURAGED IT.

So by that metric, it's pretty hard to fault the dragon clan's ancestor worship or dragon god or whatever they do simply because any bad it could do pales in comparison to a goddess of destruction that's tormented the world since the ancient era. There's only one being more evil than her, and that's Yuna, the guy who made her in the first place.

Japanese society is pretty repressed.

Japs literally don't seem to have the capability to be self-critical or introspective. It's easier to use a foreign stand-in to criticize than it is to criticize themselves, either because they're retarded, outright incapable, or the society/culture just doesn't permit it.

If anyone has any genuine examples that show otherwise, I'd love to hear about them.

Oda Nobunaga adopted christianity from the portuguese to counter the gaining influence of militant buddhist sects like the ikko ikki. Also because he was a massive westaboo who dressed in a mix of japanese and european armor. That's a well known fact - even Onimusha addressed that in in its Oda design.

After oda's death, his successor hideyoshi did away with all of the christians and hunted them down, because he saw their influence in the way of his political goals.

Well Musulmans have the mentality of cavemen and still take their fictional friends very seriously

They burned way more than what they preserved.
Only a tiny fraction of the classic ages survived because early christians around 300-400 were no different from muslims and jews when they took down hundreds of roman temples, burned down entire libraries and did their best to destroy any idol they could find.
It wasn't until several centuries later where they started to calm down and took interest into saving what little was left of that age.

Do you know the difference between an accumulative and distributive chart?

the problem is that, while christian morality is the base of the whole western society, its organization structure was such as that of a huge tyranny. If you look at the history of mankind you'll find multiple wars and tortured dissidents made entirely by or for the church.

Even in middle-east people continue to kill tehmselves over religion to this day.

So, I'd say the whole argument that "religion = absolute good and it should rapresented as such in every media" is quite ignorant and you can go back to /pol/ with your pseudo propagandistic ultra right wing moral.

It's an organization more powerful than the state. It's inherently corrupt and evil

Most religions are evil by modern civilized standards, especially in their older forms. So fantasy religions tend to be evil by default.

most games where religion are nature / matriarchal tree hugging feminine cults

>Judeo-Christian
cringe

That's because religious organisations are inherently corrupt, even more so than any government office because all their laws are based on interpretation of vague scriptures while claiming divine infallibility.

Whatever fucked up version of shinto is practiced in the Fatal Frame games. Those death rituals are very important you know. Hellish abyss, strangling, tattooing, drowning, and all that.

The Light from Warcraft III universe.

>preparing people to die, which is inevitable, and appreciate life for what it is, is evil
Granted in a modern mindset where people would rather consume entertainment to forget death, reminding this painful truth could be interpreted as "evil" I guess

The Church of Granas from Grandia II. Just because the Pope was some gay butterfly monster doesn't mean the religion itself was evil.

Dragon's crown Church is lovely and based.

Go back to r.eddit fucking cancer

The faith.
Dragon's dogma

>the virgin knight

BROTHERHOOD OF NOD

The religion of the people in OoT is neutral, people themselves choose to use the divine for bad or good.

Ever notice that only religions based on abrahamistic ones in RL are portrayed as bad? because they are

Based and Kanepilled

exactly because they are not european. this is a graph that is used to meme but it is true. Europe was always at its strongest during pagan/non christian times

Dragon Quest

Religion is a tool for evil and hatred and should be expunged from humanity.

Threads of fate...

Except there are games with evil Shinto priests

based AND marxpilled

Scarlet Crusade.
Draenei slaughtering people who reject the light, regardless of alignment.
Forceful Narru.

Also

Warcraft Universe* 3 isnt its own universe, retard.

Do you taste metal comerade?

Cool graph! What units are being used for the Y axis?

Are you guys playing the same games as me? In VIII they show how the church is corrupt and how they torture people.

Warriors of Sunlight.

>Playing video games that attempt to trick you with spooks in the form of religion or karma systems

The irony of the picture vs the text.

But user, the entire purpose of a game is to trick you with spooks.

Ever noticed how all the countries in the world follow one Asian religion or another?

Only in VIII and the religion was still mostly good guys with some corruption, the problem being the bad apples not the system. Most DQ games have them as full on benevolent.

Factually incorrect. The light does not care about anything ask long as you believe it is right. You could murder healthy children as long as you believe it is right. Warcraft's light is true neutral.

the Cult of Rathma in Diablo

The entire Xeno series is in an odd place because God is a good guy and the actual divine power is legit, but the church is evil and there's always a Yaldabaoth style fake God abusing the power of the monolith.

>Still no fucking clue what the fuck the ending of XCX meant
>The Zohar shows up as the backup for humanity
>But it was turned off the whole time and everyone should have already been dead
Then who was Zohar?

DUDE LE EVIL CHURCH is such an over used trope at this point. It's pretty embarrassing to still see it in 2019

Because god favored them even less.

Children of the atom.
While they may not get smart and constantly poison themselves their generally regarded as harmless at best and foolish at worst. The only people they really harm are themselves since their constantly bathing in radiation (fallout 3)

Perfect Blue is a film critical of Japanese culture.
Nobody Knows is a film critical of Japanese society.
Neither are vidya or about religion but they are introspective. You're an absolute moron
