hockeybub89 03/13/18 8:40:12 PM #1:	Playing a lot of Persona 5 and seeing a lot of personas has got me wondering. What are some other games not afraid to include the big monotheistic religions? They seem to be taboo, while figures of dead religions and Hinduism, Buddhism, etc show up. --- http://card.psnprofiles.com/1/NIR_Hockey.png http://www.last.fm/user/hockeybub89/ <cite>hockeybub89 posted [p:897749759] in Games with...

Solar_Crimson 03/13/18 8:50:37 PM #8:	Shin Megami Tensei I and II (II especially). However, they are old and very archaic JRPGs. Shin Megami Tensei IV also covers these, though not as much as those two games. The sequel Apocalypse also features God (called "YHVH") as the final boss. Devil Survivor Overclocked also dives rather deeply into Abrahamic themes. --- Be wary of boarding the hype train, lest you end up on the ruse cruise... - nanobuilder (r/nintendo) http://backloggery.com/SolarCrimson <cite>Solar_Crimson posted [p:897750521] in Games with...

Dragonblade01 03/13/18 9:08:03 PM #11:	Bayonetta creates it's own pseudo-Abrahamic mythology and gets pretty in-depth with it, tbh. Apparently the language that the angels speak and the symbols they use is actually based on the Enochian language, the proposed language of angels in certain branches of Abrahamic mythology. Perhaps not too surprising, but most games that incorporate these mythologies are Japanese. They have significantly less reason to fear backlash, after all. <cite>Dragonblade01 posted [p:897751782] in Games with...
