Top 10 Fictional Religions in Video Games

Video games have more depth to their fictional worlds than they get credit for. Even in games that centre around conflict, these games have so much background that you can find a lot of factions, cults and religions throughout your adventures in their worlds. Spoilers ahead.

Praise the sun \o/

Yeah not really a religion, i just wanted an excuse to post that.

ZaWarudo3615d ago

Careful there, you don't want a lawsuit on your hands.

Seriously Wakka's utter blind devotion to that bogus religion made me hate his character the most in FFX.

ameliabaz3614d ago (Edited 3614d ago )

I thought it was a pretty realistic depiction of someone who really believed that what they have been taught is the truth. I don't think his beliefs were meant to be likable. Just realistic. Some people really are that overzealous and will use their religion to justify their behavior, even if that behavior is obviously bigoted or hypocritical.

FFX SPOILERS:

The only thing I didn't like was how quickly he got over his religious beliefs once cracks started appearing in the Yevon religion. By the end of FFX, he was perfectly ok with fighting against (and destroying) the one god he believed in his whole life. By FFX-2, you would never even know he had been a religious man. I know that a person's beliefs can change over time and finding out your god doesn't exist would be a pretty big blow to those beliefs, but I imagine a person like Wakka (and even Yuna) would have A LOT of trouble finding happiness and contentment in the world if their entire belief system and reason for existing had been shattered into pieces. Spira would have been a mess after the fall of Yevon. I doubt it would have been the happy-go-lucky place that was shown in FFX-2. There would have been a lot of despair, depression, and confusion in Spira over discovering that everything they believed about creation, god, and the world was false.

"Fictional Religions" That is kind of redundant is it not? I kid I kid.

Give us FO3 with all the dlc remastered like ESO. Load times faster, quality of life improvements, gun play improvements

I believe it shouldn't just be graphical they should make improvements where they can to make the game better. A simple face lift isn't what's needed

ZeekQuattro3d ago

Still my favorite one. I remember getting a digital copy of FO3 when I got FO4(XBO). It was nice to finally play a stable version of the game. Then when I got a Series S it was an even better expierence. Quick resume and FPS boost made it feel like a whole new game. Updated gunplay would be very welcome though. One of the few things FO4 did better.

New Vegas and Morrowind should have been first!

Christopher11d ago

Fairly certain we all know that New Vegas isn't getting anything because it's not a Bethesda developed game.

OMGitzThatGuy11d ago

MS owns both devs, if they want it, a 3rd party will make it.

***MS owns both devs, if they want it, a 3rd party will make it. ***

I think the issue is that it's not a Bethesda developed game, not that MS owns both. This is more about Todd.

RaidenBlack10d ago (Edited 10d ago )

Yep ... Todd doesn't like getting bettered within his own IP scope.
I still think of the Elder Scrolls spin-off Obsidian pitched similar to New Vegas, but Todd rejected.

RaidenBlack10d ago (Edited 10d ago )

Replayed NV more than FO3 ... so I appreciate the FO3 remaster more.
For NV, I'd much prefer a sequel or a spinoff from Obsidian.

FTLmaster11d ago

Got a soft spot for Fallout 3, so I'd be down to play this.

-Foxtrot11d ago

It's crazy New Vegas wasn't worked on first to launch alongside Fallout Season 2.

They could have added all the cut content they had planned but didn't have enough development time to add, possibly even expand on it a little more. For example, have the Vegas strip as one big hub over being chopped into smaller sections we have to keep loading into.

Would love a complete remake or sequel with enough resources

Abnor_Mal11d ago

The only Fallout game I’ve played, PS3 had to keep stopping every few minutes to save. Next thing I knew the credits were rolling and I never did any side quest. I never replayed the game because of all the bugs the game had.

Yui_Suzumiya10d ago (Edited 10d ago )

I've played Fallout 3 more than any game. I lost count many years ago of how many times I finished it. It was my first Platinum trophy. But yeah, it was buggy on PS3 at launch before it got properly patched.

anast11d ago

They are only remaking their games that have been streamlined.
