MMMMmmmmm... Not really. Look at things like Halo 2 and its religion aspect. It would have been alot duller without it.

I'm a retard so I won't vote, I don't get choices. But I think that Religion is the base of tons of video games. Gives people in the games motive to fight and what to fight for. Good sides (religion) bad sides (not so much of religion). They definately make the games more interesting.

But, it still depends what you mean by religion.
Games are harder to make with real religions, because people get mad.

In game religion, like in halo 2 is good though

Yeah, I know what you mean. I don't think it matters what religion is put in a game as long as the game is fun to play.

Real religion would be hard to depict in a game though.. not the gameplay fact, but its just religions are in sooo many denominations these days, everyone will be complaining that they are representing the religion wrongly.

Well, first of all, thats their problem. Just because a bunch of yahoo's can't enjoy the game properly due to whining that a fake religion (In this sense) is wrong from everything they beleive in. Well, with real religions, it's quite simple to apply to games. Just make it so vague that you get no answers, thus everyone is satisfied, since it can be anything at all. And lastly, I have one thing to say about Religion, and it shall be in the form of a picture.

Come hither young squire, and listen to my hymns.

True, but I think that game companies are just phoning it in and slapping a vague-as-hell religion in the game(s). It's too simple for a game to just revolve around religion. If you don't know what I'm talking about, Google "Grand list of RPG cliches."

I also think that it depends on how the religion is treated, if it's slander or mocked then of course it should be censored, but if it is treatd in an even handed manner then i think it might be o.k.
