We're talking about the last human city..., ever. If the concept of this game revolves around humanities desperate survival on the edge of total extinction I would think that humans would completely transcended any and all constraints that serve to separate including race and religion. It seems like with the event of a common enemy and in the face of total annihilation people would set aside any all difference and come together for a common goal. In my opinion guardians will be seen as heros and legends but not Gods for idol worship. Guardians will represent the legend inside of everyone.

  • That doesn't make any sense. When you're presented with something that's giving people magic powers and is your savior and constant, mysterious protector, it makes sense that people would start a religion around it. They wouldn't think of it as a way of separating people, they would think of it as reality.

    You have your opinion and I have mine. I'm not here to debate what would definitely happen in a fictitious video game that hasn't even been released yet, that's just silly haha!

  • And some people may try to justify it scientifically. Works both ways.

  • Given the way it's been explained (or, rather, not) so far, I feel like it's not explainable scientifically, or at least in a way that we can understand.

  • All they've really said is the travelers power. I guarantee there will be engineer NPCs in the game that are analyzing it scientifically, as well as some who view it just as magic. Interesting discussion, no doubt, and certainly not one to start a flame war over but we have to consider all the possibilities

  • Oh I'm sure people will try to understand it scientifically, of that I have no doubt. I'm just saying that there will definitely be a group of people who see it as a divine being of some sort.
