Being anti-christian is not a good look

[Hexenkartothek]

Zantai has come out very clearly as anti-christian stating he draws the line at religion and would not want to add churches into the game. Which is kind of hilarious when you are reaping the benefits of game clearly modeled after Christian Europe.

That's not what he said. They're going to add spiritual buildings down the line with their own mechanic.

[Ninjafroggie]

and what about the other 4,000 other faiths humanity has practiced, are they persecuting them too? Get over yourself.

[Zantai]

I was raised Roman Catholic, but tell me more!

Perhaps I'm just more open and understanding to the reality of a world with countless faiths and beliefs?

The middle ages were a rather dark and pagan time with christianity making gains but not everywhere. One might say that during the dark ages christianity was more for the elites in the city states where peasants out in the boonies might still be worshiping their olde gods and spirits. I agree that generic spiritual buildings might be best served in this game since its supposed to be a breakaway culture wanting to get away from the city states.

My units already act whacky enough!

Imagine getting upset about someone not sharing your opinions on a topic. Who cares if someone doesn't agree with your personal religious ideology? Isn't religion about your relationship with whatever deity you worship? What a time-line we live in

Maybe they are Cathars. No need for opulent churches and employing greedy priests when one can spend that money on useful things like stone.

Do your parents or guardian know you're are posting on the internet again ?

That's like saying the game is anti-muslim because there are no mosques. The fact you didn't consider other religions at all says a lot.

Personally, I'd like if there were a multitude of non-specific religious buildings and we can make up what they pray to ourselves.

The Church was a horrible influence on Europe for hundreds of years, but that does not matter since its not based in Europe. This is such a bad take it has to be a troll.

This is the stupidest comment I've ever read. Take yourself to the Land of Dumb Comments and proclaim yourself king, my man!

That's not what was said.

The game artists and designers have significant crossover on Grim Dawn. (I mean just look at the builders).
So while they may say they want players to "imagine" what world farthest frontier is in, it was generally accepted by the GD community before release that Farthest Frontier was in the same universe, and just pre-dated GD by a few hundred years or so, before the war.

It was also assumed that their rumored plans for an RTS game would take place during the war, before the events of GD.

If you know anything about GD, you're aware of many religions, including churches, though no specific religion is ever really referenced(besides those cults that praise demons and aetherials)
