Would the Doom franchise count as the most Christian game in all games ever made?

I'm not a christian, so I'd like to hear your thoughts?

I mean yeah if you count the father as god and dark lord the devil and Doom guy an Angel

Doom Guy killed them both. Well, he destroyed the Fathers essence anyway, but he fully splatted the Dark Lord.

I don't know much about Doom, but there are a lot of games using Christian mythology like heaven/hell, angels/demons etc.

Doomguy must repent and accept our Lord and Saviour

Given that the bible as well as most other religious texts, are complete and utter self-contradictory then sure, it's a christian game.

Simply put you can cherry pick enough bits that fit it. Just as you could cherry pick the same against it.

Personally, I don't se the point in even bothering to attempt itas religion is something that shouldn't even enter into it.

It's a meme but if you want to discuss these matters from a more "in-depth" perspective then you must first define what Christianity even means to you.

If it's meekness and "turning the other cheek" from the original Nazarene teachings, then no, if it's a more militant "defense of the faith" in the Templarian tradition, then it could be, but it would have a underlying "Gnostic" component to it, in which Doom guy / Doom Slayer takes on Cainite characteristics in order to destroy the "illusions of flesh" (demons) with sword and fire.

Might be worth noting that parental religious groups disliked and expressed discontent with the overt Satanic themes of the original DooM back in the early 90s, but at the same time some "traditionalist" parents nowadays might want to motivate their children to have a bigger "fighting spirit" in them in order to better overcome the obstacles they will face later in life.

no, there are vastly more Christian themed games out there. the overwhelming majority of them are terrible, but they exist. good luck with your extensive research on this topic

The irony here is that if one goes back a little further there is the game Super Noah's Ark 3D. Agame that is allegedly the result of a disagreement between id and Nintendo (iirc - bugger my memory), and resulted in id making a Christian themed game for a religious label.

So there's some truth there.
