Nope! Not biased at all. I mean FC literally changes the theme every... single... release. They sure as heck weren't christian in FC4 or Primal for that matter! Also your logic seems to be "if we're going to make a game about A then it's only fair if we also make a multi million dollar game about B as well" That's simply ridiculous. There's nothing wrong with only exploring one side of something in FICTION. Also this game is NOT about killing people in churches. Churches make up less than 1% of the map so it's an absolute certainty you will be doing almost all your killing outside of churches. The fact is you're being difficult and you know it.
The biggest issue with your posts here though, beyond the thinly veiled genuine desire you seem have to virtually storm a mosque & murder everyone in it, is the blatant disregard of the fact that the trailer clearly shows that the antagonists of this game are being portrayed in a way that obviously and without question shows that they are not simply God fearing people of christian faith. You conveniently ignored the fact that this is a violent & aggressive cult who's beliefs have have not even really been revealed. Not once in the trailer are the words "God" or "Jesus" uttered by the antagonist. You're acting as if we'll just be going into churches full of christian congregations and shooting the place up when clearly nothing like that is happening. The cult is operating out of a church because the cult is using that pretense as a disguise to twist & pervert the local's disenfranchisement with their current situation in order to further their own cause. Your posts are so transparent and blatantly anti-islam its disturbing really...Originally Posted by Kaide_XIV Go to original post
Shutting this garbage thread down would not be done in an attempt to stifle free-speech but rather to muffle hate speech. It is not "fairness" to have a Synagogue storming killing spree in a different Far Cry game simply because we might kill cultists in a church in this one. Your posts seem to imply that you view members of a synagogue as the opposition to members of a church (hence killing one "to be fair" for having killed the other) but that is one of the most misguided ideas I have ever heard. All we want to do in these forums is discuss the game, not bog it down with political ideology which this thread obviously is.
Do people in Synagogues and Mosques not have people that are not following their faith appropriately as well? Do cults only use Churches? Doesn't hate speech also include defending a game that involves violence within places of worship? Also, God and Jesus were not mentioned, you are correct.....they were inferred (a legal term used in court cases).....the main villain looks identical to the Jesus displayed in most churches....the cover art for the games box is the last supper....if you buy the gold edition the character in the middle even gets a glowing light around him (another display of mockery).....the main villain states "I am your father and you are my children" in reference to God/Jesus/Christians....they also use a scene of Baptism by dunking a girls head in water while holding a book.....they ring the church bell with a mans head....there are countless scenes where they mock "Christianity" "Jesus" and "God"...without using their names. The entire thing was a mockery for those of us "intelligent" enough to see it.Originally Posted by HorTyS Go to original post
I would just think that after mocking Christians over and over and killing people in Churches....it would be good to murder people in a different religious setting like a Synagogue in Israel. If the only "religious" place you ever want to kill people in your games is Churches...that speaks volumes about your own character and bias.Originally Posted by usmovers_02 Go to original post
I never once said the game is about killing Christians. Please quote where I said that.Originally Posted by usmovers_02 Go to original post
Of course you are a person who double posts, as if you've not provided enough reason to find you unbearable as a person. What I'm gathering from your posts is that you're simply offended at the prospect of killing a human, christian or not, inside a church. You think that to even things out, or "make it fair", they should make it so you are able to kill a person in a mosque or synagogue in some future iteration of the franchise... is that it? What a f#@ked up leap of logic that is....Originally Posted by Kaide_XIV Go to original post
It's not messed up logic at all. If the only acceptable place of worship in the Far Cry series to murder people is inside of Churches.....then that is not only extremely bias, but also hateful towards a very specific group of people.Originally Posted by HorTyS Go to original post
You're right actually, that isn't messed up logic, it is an example of the complete absence of logic. Simply because we'll potentially be shooting characters in a church in this game, does not imply that churches are the only acceptable place of worship to murder people in a Far Cry game. That is not even a logical leap, that train of thought is devoid of logic. I'm starting to wonder if you have ever even played Far Cry or if you play videogames at all. I'd wager to guess it's a big negatory on that one. You've clearly come in here with an anti-islam agenda, I mean, I think we can all admit that right? What group is it bias or hateful towards to shoot a cult member in a church in a videogame? You are saying the very act of shooting a person in a church implies bias against christians? Again, that reasoning is simply unsound. That's like saying it was bias against factory workers when you have to shoot your way through the army in the cluckin' bell factory in GTA V, but I guess thats an example you probably won't understand....Originally Posted by Kaide_XIV Go to original post
I stated specifically "the only acceptable place of worship"....that has nothing to do with the rest of the game or other Far Cry games where we kill people in fields, on top of mountains, or underwater. What it means is that when the Far Cry series uses religious buildings to depict violence or evil.....the only building they ever use is a Church. Which is EXTREMELY bias and hateful towards a very specific group of people. If you cannot see that...then you are the one with an absence of logic.Originally Posted by HorTyS Go to original post
Also, as I stated previously....if they are not targeting Christians.....then why was it inferred (a legal term used in court cases).....the main villain looks identical to the Jesus displayed in most churches....the cover art for the games box is the last supper....if you buy the gold edition the character in the middle even gets a glowing light around him (another display of mockery).....the main villain states "I am your father and you are my children" in reference to God/Jesus/Christians....they also use a scene of Baptism by dunking a girls head in water while holding a book from their religion.....they ring the church bell with a mans head....there are countless scenes where they mock "Christianity" "Jesus" and "God"...without using their names. The entire thing was a mockery for those of us "intelligent" enough to see it.
