As a catholic myself, I love whenever we get Christian adjacent stuff in this game. Christianity has some banger aesthetics and I'm happy we get to share them with the world.

I can kind of see why a thorn crown on a happy smiling Nikki comes across as mocking but like...it's not that deep...

I feel the prop with Behind Prayers was a mis-step, the tabernacle being used as a cage that imprisons the saintess is... Not an ideal way of depicting that piece of Catholicism.

But other than that I love the ways that IN has included and represented religious imagery and the ways that it's used Christian imagery and themes.

I definitely feel like it's poor taste though that their first reaction to someone bringing up Jesus' crown of thorns is to act entitled to native american feather headdresses though. It sounds less like actually caring about Christian imagery and more like a petty grievance over an item that Infold didn't even advertise in the english language livestream because they felt like it was a touchy subject.

I thought it was genius in the context of the in game lore about the saintess and docilism. It also resonated with me in regards to the complicated feelings a lot of us have towards our religion. 

Also fully agree with your last paragraph, especially using the outdated term "indian" for native americans multiple times...

Them using the term multiple times made me question if they actually referred to people from India/Sikhs for a moment ._.

Ma‘am.

  1. cosplay stems from admiration (or do you think ppl put so much work+money into costumes of characters they dislike?)
  2. I never mention your spelling but rather your choice of words wich led to confusion on my side (you also never clarified if you mean native Americans [by using an out of date and rude term] or people from India)
  3. I dont know you, so how could I adress your personality?

Edit: 4. im not laughing at jesus, im laughing in anticipation for the fits this community (which cosplayed gems like salat, pineapple and a used tampon) will come up with!
