Yes, the religion of Rokugan for example is vaguely inspired by shinto, but it is a not that, and Shintao is not taoism. Where is the problem with that? Where is it "offensive"? Western settings completely ignore western monotheisms, and depict totally made-up religions which are vaguely based on greek-roman-norse polytheisms, but as depictions they are totally inaccurate, starting from the fact that they overly stress the idea that each person worships mostly one deity, while people of the past rather worshipped entire pantheons. I don't think many people are offended by this, nobody thinks that the game is subtly telling "all westerners worship wacky deities of agriculture, death, crafts, disease, commerce, war..."</p></blockquote><p></p>
