I have lost most interest in RPG's. I used to look so forward to them. Here's why.

Ok, i know what i mean, and i agree, but those games haven't vanished yet.

The legend of heroes Trails of cold steel is something you will enjoy if you haven't played. The pesona games are the same. I think the menu is a bit different but persona 5 is still turn based.

At one point i think i understand you, but then you post this nonsense.

Have you ever heard about anyone making an anti-christian game? If you aren't willing to deal with religious themes, then maybe it isn't the genre for you anymore, indeed. These things were aproached in games like FFT, Grandia 2 and Xenogears, corner stones of the genre. 

Well... you will still be fine with legend of heroes. But do keep in mind that games are games, and thus not the real world. I won't defend religion though, i think it's humanities cancer and complete fantasy aswell, but it's irrelevant to enjoying the story of a virtual world.

Thank you for saying this. Calling a game "Divinity" is anti-christian? Please. You feel so attacked? Try being an atheist. I can't even let my grandmother or employers know what my beliefs are. Don't go reading offense into everything and then say you feel "attacked." My wife was in a bookstore once and picked up a book on Darwin and a nearby Christian said loudly to his wife: "I hate atheists! They always have to ram their beliefs down your throat!" Seriously? Who was loudly bitching about whom? So I don't feel any need to coddle. I found the idea that one needs to be "on guard" for anti-christian sentiment in a game because it was called "divinity: original sin" childish, privileged, tone-deaf, and basically ridiculous. It'd be funny if it weren't so upsetting.

I'm sorry to hear that.

That situation is unfortunely consequence of the deficient education systems in the US (and other under developed countries). It is the exception. Everyone who studied enough knows that religion can't possibly have any truth to it and those bigoted reactions just reflect how ugly religious people can truly be. Completely irresponsible children.
Anyways, just wanted to give you some ease. In Europe the situation is quite the opposite. There is no abuse of religious people, but no one will respect religious people in quite the same way, so people tend to keep it to themselves, wich is the way it should be. Keep your religion at home/church, where you can do what you want. Come outside with the nonsense and you get laughed at.
