[QUOTE="ConcreteBuddha, post: 540672, member: 3139"] I second [B]In Nomine.[/B] That is a pretty good game. I didn't want to play it forever, but it had it's perks. . . . Honestly, my only problem with having a real-world Christian RPG is that the options are kinda limiting. I mean, there are really only three "races": humans, angels, and devils. You only have two sides: Good and Bad. (And you know those are the only two sides because God said so.) Also, situational ethics (a.k.a Chaos) is generally aligned with Bad and absolutism (Lawful) is aligned with Good. Hence the "Thou shall nots". This is not meant to be a slight against Christianity, but an observation that it is really easy to make a Christian RPG into a bunch of cardboard cutouts. The guys with the white hats are the Good Guys and the guys with the black hats are the Bad Guys. . . . I like Middle-Earth as a good Christian RPG. At least it has some nifty races. Plus, the Christian friends I [B]did[/B] have in high school said it was endorsed by God. That [B]must[/B] mean it's okay. ;) [/QUOTE]
