What games let me play as Christian gods or focuses on Christianity?

I'm sure Jesus would find this flattering.

wasn't he just a prophet or something
God, Jesus and the Holy Spirit?
Doesn't have to be gods only, it can be angels and famous people from the Bible.
>God, Jesus and the Holy Spirit?
Same thing. Come on man, christianity is one of the most important monotheistic religions.
DOOM is unironically the best Christian game
>and why aren't they more common?
A lot of spiritual people lose their shit when you depict their object of worship in a light they don't approve of. It's harder to put money towards something that's inherently controversial but not controversial enough to sell more copies.
Dante's Inferno off the top of my head, while you don't play as a God or anything it definitely has to do with Christian mythology.
I've never thought about doom this way, this is pretty fucking cool.
Depends on which christians you ask.
my bad
You're crusading against demons from Hell. If that's not Christian then I don't know what is.
Eh, the actual jesus would probably say anyone who plays video games instead of feeding the poor is a jerk.
which book of the bible would make the best vidya? im thinking something like god of war bible version. with sex and lots of violence
Deus Ex
Revelations, obviously.
Sandy Peterson was a Mormon iirc
oh shit, they would be a triple fighter, kinda like Noob/Smoke from MK
Fucking heretics, man.
It's one thing to have God in your game and make Him evil or something like Shin Megami Tensei Nocturne does, but in that case it's usually implied that God can be taken down. The problem with playing as God is that it would't even be a game anymore. MCs are usually OP pieces of shit in the game to begin with, let alone you're literally playing as God.

Fucking hell, what do they teach people in schools these days
well, go look up the review from Christ Centered Gamer. its unironically a good review AND its by a fucking godnut, who usually hates everything
he also gave DOAX3 the BEST REVIEW EVER
Joshua. His whole book is the Jews raiding the land of Canaan until they have the promise land. 1 and 2 Kings has a lot of political and war stuff too.
Best portrayal of Christian religious ideas in a game that I've seen is probably Resonance of Fate, which is unusual because Japanese games generally have a hard on for making the not-Christian organizations in their games be secretly evil.
However, in this case the conflict is resolved when you inadvertently restore a dejected clergyman's faith in his own religion when he witnesses a miracle
God works in mysterious ways
The YHVH in SMT isn't really God
I don't know much, but in Prince of Egypt Moses has a lot of cool powers, a lot could be use for traversal and puzzle solving. He can earn them as he progresses through out the game like on gow, but in this case it's gifted to him by God and his angels, they could twist things up and add a good and evil path where depending on how you play, God or satan will give you powers.
oh and your magic meter would be faith
>His whole book is the Jews raiding the land of Canaan until they have the promise land
>tfw you realize the Jews are forever doomed to wars and ruining nice stuff for everybody else
What if it's an origin story on how God got his powers and became a god in whatever realm of existence he began in?
isn't that more like Greek mythology?
We got a religion based on that premise.
It is Islam.
Jesus will forgive you
Make a Dynasty Warriors game based on the book of Judges.
will definitely check it out, looks like a decent gow rip off.
Don't remember much, but is it about Samson going musou to bunch of skellies?
I would love a game where it's a bunch of short stories ala bf1 and with different gameplay mechanics/protagonists, sorta like the greatest hits.
Icarus (The Father)
Daedalus (The Holy Spirit)
JC Denton (The Son)
>implying the land of Canaan was nice
Wait so what's stuff like Lucifer and Azreal and that fall under?
What are some games where spooky angels are my allies?
I don't know anything about that game, but using broken pieces of the cross still nailed to his hands as his weapons is such a cool concept.
Because Christians are utter nuts who will flip out at things like this. Remember when EA hired a bunch of people to protest the Dante's Inferno game and at first nobody questioned it because it seemed like the sort of thing that would naturally happen? Bunch of lunatics.
Source: I spent 18 years going to church at least twice a week. Even went to some megachurches, those people are utterly mental.
Judges. Some of the stuff in there is completely insane.
The aptly named "Crusader vs Jihad" mod for Mount and Blade Warband should be everything you need, OP.
a god's angels vs fallen angels mod would be pretty cool for this.
half of the map would be clouds and golden structures and the other half would be rock and fire.
>Because Christians are utter nuts who will flip out at things like this.
It wasn't a Christian country that completely blocked access to Steam because of this one game.
I've been wondering why nobody has been talking about this game.
It was nice for the Canaanians
Eat shit Christcucks.
I fail to see how this makes Christians any less nuts.
How many Christians have got their countries to completely block Steam?
I'm sure as long as you don't branch into or advocate blasphemous/heretical territory, any genre could fit a Christian title. Remember that badass preachers is one of the best tropes
the one where the guy slaughters a bunch of jews
They've certainly got their brand of crazy, but there's worse out there. They're called Muslims.
wrong
>Same thing.
There's contention over that as well.
Translating the bible was a mistake.
did anyone ever bought that game?
>ctrl+f
>Crusader Kings II
>no results
Jesus fuck this board is casual.
...
0 that I'm aware of, but you realize how flawed your argument is, right? You're essentially trying to tell me that a man with schizophrenia isn't screwed in the head because his neighbor has Alzheimers. That does not fly.
Yeah, true that.
I wonder what Jesus sees in people like you.
A lost lamb that actively avoids its shepherd
Malaysian here. I did

But the satanic wub wub brappptt soundtrack is demonic.

There is a /christian/ imageboard over at 8ch, link in pic related. We also have a discord as well if you guys would like to join in the sticky posted.
Skullgirls if you use Double as an assist
why?
>it's real
You people are weird
is cursing and posting lewd things bannable?
JUSTICE PU- HUARGH
HOLY LIGHT HOLY LIGHT
HRAA..... RAPTURE
Christ Centered Gamer is awesome, they do genuinely good reviews and do a separate score for the objective quality of the game and the "morality scale" for christian values. Shin Megami Tensei 4 Apocalypse got like a 9 for game quality and a 0 for morality.
>mfw this game is responsible from banning steam from an entire country
what the fuck?
Jesus is God's human avatar; the Holy Spirit is his presence in all of his creations. Not conceptually challenging stuff.
Soooomeone else just finished watching the latest Scrublords.
El Shaddai
I don't know why anyone hasn't said El Shaddai yet.
Catholics GTFO
>8ch
literally meme chan
literally worse than fucking kraut chan
It's essentially reddit with a yotsuba skin
This game actually has decent graphics, but holy shit it looks awful in motion.
CCG is well known as being the only good internet reviewer
fucking this, only other decent chan besides Sup Forums is endchan.
Didn't they review Rabi Rabi and say it was a great game, but the sexuality for Christians was (of course) going to be an issue for some
I forgot 8c exists, again why was it created?
That is not really the case. First a history lesson.
Around the year 300AD this became a major issue. Arian Christians (named after a priest in Egypt named Arius who proposed the theory) did not accept Christ as god, but a subordinate creation of God. The rest of Christianity said that Christ was not subordinate to God, but God. And man. At the same time.
In 325 the Council of Nicaea was called to deal with this schism in Christianity. This was a big fucking deal, with representatives from around the world called together, presided over by Constantine I. The council laid down the foundations of Christianity and attempted to form an orthodox theological consensus on doctrine. In it, Arianism was denounced and its adherents excommunicated and declared enemies of Christianity itself. Arius himself and several prominent Arians were exiled.
Now Arian Christianity was mostly popular amongst the Germanic tribes that conquered Roman territory, like the Vandals and Goths (not the Franks though). The Vandals forced conversion among their Roman subjects, executed dissenters with crucifiction. Most people don't think of Germanic barbarians as Christian religious zealots, but that's the way it was. Eventually the Vandal Kingdom (in North Africa) was reconquered by the Eastern Roman Empire, before being lost to the Muslims. The Gothic Kingdoms in Spain were also lost to the Muslims. Thus, the Arians got wiped out and supplanted by Muslims. Surviving branches of Christianity all adhered to the Nicene creed (meaning they follow the decisions of the Council of Nicaea).
This changed over time with the Reformation, but still very, very few groups ever went back to Arianism. The only major one is Jehovas Witnesses, and very few Christians consider them anything but a non-Christian cult.
moot banned gamergate threads on Sup Forums, like 5 months after it started flooding the shit out of this board
Because a certain topic grew so big, shitpost-ridden and out of control that it was taking over the entire board and attracting extremely negative legal attention to the site that Moot not only banned it from the board but abandoned Sup Forums entirely. The people behind said topic freaked out and took this as an attack on freedom of speech and that Sup Forums was dead.
...
Wouldn't limiting it to a single thread be a better option?
I agree that flat-out banning it may have been the wrong move but it was infecting every fucking thread and every section of the board. Even if they limited it to one thread, it begs the question; Why can there be a general for video game journalism, but not for an actual video game?
A reformationist blackamoor preacher and bible translator was teaching a class on Martin Luther, known protestant.
”Before the class begins, you must get on your knees and worship Luther and accept that he was the most spiritually enlightened being the world has ever known, even greater than Jesus Christ!”
At this moment, a brave, patriotic, pro-papacy Landsknecht who had served 1500 tours of duty and understood the necessity of war and fully supported all military decision made by the Hapsburg and the Catholic League stood up and held up a rock.
"How old is this rock, pinhead?"
The arrogant professor smirked quite Jewishly and smugly replied "5000 years, you stupid Papist
"Wrong. This rock was created by God at the dawn of time. If, as you say, salvation is through faith alone, it should be in Heaven by now."
The preacher was visibly shaken, and dropped his vernacular bible and copy of the 95 Theses. He stormed out of the town square crying those protestant crocodile tears. The same tears protestants cry about the 'excesses' of the Catholic Church, when in reality the wealth of the Church is given to it freely by its parishioners so that it might glorify God. He wished so much that he had a pyre to burn himself on, but he himself had petitioned against the burning of heretics!
The townsfolk applauded and all joined the Catholic League and accepted the Pope as the leader of Christ's Church on Earth, through the apostolic succession of the authority that Jesus vested in St. Peter. An eagle named 'Grace through Good Works' flew into the room and perched atop a cross of St. Peter the preacher had forgotten to burn. The Nicene Creed was recited several times and the Virgin Mary herself entered to square to lead everyone in saying the Pater Noster.
The preacher was run out of town and was thrown out a window the next day. He died of the heretic black death and was tossed into the lake of fire for all eternity.

>rated DOAX3's gameplay 12/20
Way too kind to that piece of shit. On the flip side I appreciate that their averages are weighted in favor of gameplay.
>Palestine and Israel will never resolve their issues
>They have games mocking them about it
dragons dogma was pretty good.
Won't according to Islam Jesus resurrect and fight with the muslims against the jews?
I'm pretty sure jews die in every book of the bible
...
But Jesus wasn't a warlord.
That was Muhammad
>Christian gods
There are literally no Christians that say Jesus was just a prophet. The whole point of Christianity is that Jesus was/is the Christ, the Messiah, the savior of humanity and that Jesus being God is necessary to fulfill that role.

>that picture
Is it just another nazi hugbox but this time with religion?
