    Do you really think the entire world becoming atheistic is remotely likely in a world where gods can be conjured just by having enough spare energy and a strong enough desire? Yes, primals are false gods, but good luck getting everyone to acknowledge that when we can't even get everyone in our own world to acknowledge that the Earth isn't flat.

    To be fair there's a wide variety of different belief systems established in the real world in regards to deities. There's no reason that the game itself cannot reflect that, particularly with its main cast.

    I would have personally preferred the game to have the gods be actual gods rather than the equivalent of humans who became them but the ship has long since sailed on that front.

    Still, with the long list of revelations surrounding them it wouldn't be unlikely for at least one or two of the Scions to take a more realistic and cynical approach rather than all just adopting the exact same opinions in response to practically everything that happens.
