    But this is moot because no actual gods are present in the making of this fantasy game. It clearly draws inspiration from western history, and that's why you have institutions like the Inquisition, which is based on various institutions that were set up between the twelfth and nineteenth centuries with the intent of eliminating heresy as defined by the Catholic church. However, the Inquisition in FFXIV has nothing whatsoever to do with Catholicism. As far as I know, no one was ever burned at the stake for allying themselves with dragons. Claiming that this game is anti-Christianity is like claiming that Game of Thrones is opposed to the British monarchy. Queen Cersei Lannister has as much to do with Queen Elizabeth II as the FFXIV Inquisition has to do with the Catholic church.

    Yeah, that is entirely my point.
