    But protestant countries are full of awesome churches?

      The post is referring to american protestant, as opposed to capital P Protestant churches. They’re usually in smaller buildings that aren’t full-time churches/ the space is often used for non-sermon church functions. For example, my childhood church was based out of a community center room that held ~40 people and hadnt been updated since the 80s

        american protestant denominations

        One of the items Luther was protesting about was that churches were too expensive and ostentatious. So, no, unless you know if some protestants that aren’t actually in the protest.

        The post is referring to american protestant denominations like baptists, evangelicals, presbyterian, etc. as opposed to capital P Protestant churches.

        They are all capital P Protestant denominations.

        Almost all of which were built before the reformation.

        Ulm Minster, Cologne Cathedral, Speyerer Dom, the Berlin Cathedral, all originally Catholic.

        England is a better example since their brand of Protestantism really favored big works to rival the Catholics.

      The words they’re looking for is “evangelical” or “nondenominational.”

      Works best if it’s next door to a Spirit Halloween shop. The cults of bad religion and consumer spook night are the last decomposers to show up on the carcass of a dead suburban intersection.

      I’m pretty sure that’s just the average modern zombie game. Everyone of them has a mall level.

    Holy shit. I’ve played through all of the souls games and only just now am realizing just how many churches are in the games.

      Japanese know that churches are cool for boss fights.

      I have only played DS3 and ER. If i remember correctly, DS3 includes 1 big ass abbey (they call it cathedral), 1 big ass cathedral… annor londo isnt a catholic temple, but it has the looks for sure ::: spoiler spoiler And beneath it, there is another freaking temple ::: plus scattered churches.

      ER does not look like it gives churches that kind of protagonism apart from cult of marika

      • Underwaterbob@sh.itjust.works ⁨2⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago

        In Dark Souls 1 one of the most important boss fights is on the roof of a church you fight your way through to get on top of, and of course the same Anor Londo is there.

        The only one I can remember in Dark Souls 2 is the place you fight Ornstein. The architecture in 2 is quite a bit different from the rest of the series. Probably because it wasn’t Miyazaki.

        Didn’t the japanese flip the fuck out when assassins Creed had some missions inside japanese temples because it was sacrilegious? Seems a bit hypocritical.

    Tbh dark souls 3 had too many cathedrals, so I’d be okay with a few rooms with chairs.

    source
  • NannerBanner@literature.cafe ⁨2⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago

    I’d be pretty happy with just a ‘realistic’ dark souls setting. The wild views were great in the various games, but now give me a perfectly rendered recreation of actual castles and medieval villages to romp through, with the occasional huge reptile ripping through a village’s eastern quarter as I race to the well to raise the bucket of water that is its only weakness.

      How about modern liminal settings. A subway car at 3am. A Waffle house restroom. A closed stripmall.

        Not a Souls game but Alan Wake 2 has some great liminal spaces.

        I know I haven’t the best memory to simply name them off, but I know I have played games like that already. Maybe not in the boss focused rpg style, but enough that they wouldn’t really appeal on their own. But something like kingdom come or the witcher, but with all the goodness of elden ring bosses? I’d be down for that.

    This sounds like a joke I’m too European to understand because my local Church of Scotland Kirk is a gothic edifice dating to the 15th century.

      A remember a congregation out where I live in Yankeestan fastened a crude structure onto their truckbed and they called it their mobile chapel. They’d drive out to agriculture zones and try to preach to migrants against catholicism.

        That’s still a thing? Anti Catholicism in the US?

        I mean I know the US Government has beef with Catholics because of Liberation Theology so they funded Evangelical missionaries to preach that the people screwing them over were righteous and they should simply pray about it.
