Why is this?
Japan, 2.3% Christian

Western games and media are shit that's why
Business don't want to offend the deeply religious and the deeply religious don't like video games because it corrupts the youth.
>America, 70.6% Christian
>Only 20.8% professing Roman Catholic beliefs
Real Christians are a minority you ledditor
This post doesn't even make sense.
>somebody painted red all over that dog just to make it look edgy
That's animal abuse ;_;
Because the villains of real life are all christians
Christians are always the villains in japanese games as well.
I'm saying that it's hard to market a video game to the deeply religious Christian because they believe it's the work of the devil made to take young people away from church and commitment to god.
That's because japanese content creators unironically believe that Christians want to take over their shitty backwards island and purge it of manga, hentai, and other degenerate works.
>Last Supper reference
This game is pure horse cock sucking shit.
P.S. $100 bucks on the table that girl has commited incest
hot
>tfw will never work with a bunch of doggos
Because Christians don't care if they are the bad guys. They already won the religion war years ago.
Considering what happened on continental america. They made the right call.
The only thing I have against this game is that the main antagonist is young as fuck.
Normally with a lot of these cults, the leader is usually older and feel like they're losing control over their time and youth, so they channel it by target the youth themselves.
Take Manson for example
Or Mormons
Isn't this series made in Canada?
Anyway even if it wasn't gaming is dominated by far leftists. Many are even activists.
I mean this is the same studio that had Karl Marx as the good guy
No, we don't autismo. I'm very Christian and I don't care. We aren't Muslims, we don't blow people up in this day and age for being offended.
Backwards? Have you SEEN their toilets?
They're always villains because extreme murderous kool-aid drinking religous cults are more interesting than that fucking gay "love thy neighbor"' shit in the bible. Fuck you. Name 10 games in the past 5 years that censored Christian symbols in their Western counterparts or get off the fucking internet.
>defending christianity on fucking Sup Forums
...
I can name 12
Despite America being a secular country, most Americans are Christians or hold Christian beliefs. So, it's usually best to avoid Christian themes so as not to offend potentially 70% of the country into not buying your game. And,it's easy to paint religion as evil because even other Christians can acknowledge corruption in the church.
Also, to Japan, not only do they usually get Christianity wrong in all aspects, it's such a minority there. When you're only 2% of the population, it's hard to convince people to care about what you think. Not only that, it's alien to them. Japan loves western culture because they have a cultural interest in things that are exotic.

>america being a secular country
Please the day the power goes out you'll have C.A.R. style christian death squads.
Why aren't they in your post then?
Best reilgious terrorists were from SWAT 2.
No
>implying Sup Forums is the same thing as reddit
I mean, it's a couple degrees off, but it's not that different.
Japan
>Not affected by cultural marxism
America
>Affected by cultural marxism
really makes you think
Is New Vegas the only western game with explicitly Christian characters who aren't villains?
What game lets me holler the name of our lord and saviour?
hmm i wonder (((why)))
Sup Forums=Counterculture
Reddit=Establishment culture
That's why reddit hates Christians and Sup Forums doesn't.
>Mongoloid using dead meme
Sup Forums has turned into a fucking weird she'll of itself. Sup Forums is filled with insane Hardline christians (or LARPers)
Honestly the only Japanese game that really does "Christian themes, Christian symbolism" well is Resonance of Fate
In others, the obvious Christian proxy is either window dressing of no significance (Dragon Quest) or actually super evil (Xenogears, Breath of Fire 2)
Sup Forums was a Christian board up until 2013. R.I.P
Because christianity is seen as a foreign novelty in japan
>You can't use that picture! It's not le cool anymore xD
Post the last positively portrayed christian in vidya
>There are people on Sup Forums who haven't read at least one book in the bible
Anno literally just put the random crosses and other symbolisms in because they looked cool.
See.
It really isn't. Right wing =/= Christian.
I think Sup Forums is now filled with genuine hard-line Christians that aren't even LARPing.
It got blasted on so many websites frequented by 50 year old rednecks. That's why it has the oldest age bracket on Sup Forums.
Because americans and most westerners are hacks unlike superior nippon. But if that Mario x Rabbids shit turns out to be true, I might have to rethink some things...
The exact reason you've stated: 70.6% Christian.
Japan can use the symbolism because there won't be much (if any) outrage in their country, but here?
Shit, we already have threads of people screaming 'muh SJWs' and 'muh anti-Trump'. We want to pretend like we American gamers aren't as sensitive as our 'SJWs' are, but look at the shit storm this game is causing.
>not Roman Catholic
>"""christian"""
The Japanese crucified Portuguese missionaries on their ports to warn others to fuck off when Christianity was first colonizing Japan.
young japanese kids read Greek and Roman authors, college/university students read Thomas Aquinas and other Catholic thinkers.
...
>in japanese games the church is evil and god is literally the devil
Can you imagine what would happen if a game like that was made in America?
Have you seen Sup Forums lately? It's full of bible shit
that is true, in other times when Date Masamune was alive they asked the Catholic missionaries to return because they were learning many things. The Catholic monks were good at both language skills and agriculture.
let's dive in
>Mormon
>Christian.
Next you'll say evangelicals, and protestants are too...
may I ask why
The Lone Wanderer's father, in Fallout 3, is Christian. His part in baby steps was very comfy.
>America, 70.6% Christian
Really makes you think....
>the game will focus on a “religious cult”
This is always associated at white americans, rednecks. The ones who worship Karl Marx or Islam are never cultists, they are beautiful people.
It honestly just looks like more of the same they keep making. At least the last few games had an exotic twist to them, but this is just dull and potentially overly political. What I like about Japs is that unlike Americans, they have a wider number of stances and have made good shit that can be perceived as either religious or not religious, or political and apolitical. Or sexist or feminist because they frankly just care about making a good story and having creative freedom.
>newfags being this new
>not even realizing christian shitposting was a thing even among secular anons for years just for jolly shits and giggles
I want reddit to leave.
Literally "muh roman empire"
Probably nothing at all. Small murmur from Fox news and it'd be forgotten within a week like all the other "CHRISTIANS ARE LOSING THEIR MINDS OVER _______" events people imagine happen.
Because its easy to troll with because its polarizing.
They're tired of "degeneracy" so they are going back to their roots I guess. It's fucking retarded.
So when is Ubisoft making a game where you shoot up muslim extremists?
If you unironically BUY ubisoft games, you know where you have to go.
ALWAYS PIRATE UBISOFT.
>Feel like the vast majority of """"Christians"""""" are just atheists that want a moral high ground
I don't know why I get this feeling.
>French
>Canadians
>Making stuff against muslims
pick none
Catholics are lazy fucks.
>a group of plucky teens/ young adults must band together to stop the evil empire
>we're totally not just riffing on Star Wars or the Ultima series for the 3685456 billionth time
>anons bitch about Sup Forums always "raiding" their boards
>end up bringing up Sup Forums more than Sup Forums
It truly is starting to feel like summer around here.
>probably nothing at all
The absolute state of this board says otherwise.
>French
>shooting muslims and not licking their boots
Nice maymay.
Shitposting is nothing, user.
Has none of you guys seen The Hunchback of Notre Dame?
...
>I'm very Christian and I don't care
t. Protestant cuck
Let's be real, user. Sup Forums has always been here. The past few years has just encouraged their behavior more and more.
>Sup Forums bait thread
>Sup Forums is brought up
hmmmm makes you think
>a country with a tiny minority of religious followers doesn't give a shit about offending them
>a country where the vast majority are religious followers walks on eggshells and uses euphemisms to avoid offense
>"GEE GUYS WHY IS THIS?"
Are you retarded? Or did you just need an excuse to made the hundredth Far Cry 5 thread of the hour?
Can't have a discussion unless your opponent is some imaginary villain, after all.
Remember, the elections were just like that time in Harry Potter.
Half the time they think church is a virgin wife vending machine so they just want to game that system. It's really disgusting and degenerate when you get to the heart of it.
There is one thing called Americanism. And there is a Christian religion called Catholicism
Americanism is a mix of protestant and jewish ideas of money, gold, prosperity and multiculturalism.
Final Fantasy is trash though.
Pfff, the amount of "Frodo was the good guy" and "Quasimodo was a cuck" and "Esmerelda was just a gypsy skank" this will receive.
because white people are actively trying to destroy themselves and their countries. just look at Sweden and Germany.
What about Mexicans
The Catholic Church has been corrupted, maybe even by Satan.
>Christian shit-posting
There's shit posting, and then there's the dude that genuinely knows entire books of the bible
I think those assholes opened the door for the real deal.
Yeah Japan was an odd microcosm. Their isolation made them hate the rest of the world yet be heavily influenced by it.
Frollo the judge gets horny while an actual priest tries to stop him but ends up getting killed when a gargoyle comes to life and scares him.
Catholicism is multicultural you idiot.
If you ever want to see where the 30-40 year olds hangout, it's Sup Forums.
I've never seen it go from a fringe group to the 2nd most popular age bracket.
Help! Help! I'm being oppressed by a video game!
