Idea for RELIGION

I really hope, religion is not required unless it is my RL religion. Religion in a game should always be optional. Some people may be ok with some religious things and not ok with other things. Please do not give incentives to only people who follow a particular religion, UNLESS you can name the religion to your own and the things your able to do are somehow decided by the player - maybe optional quests to add to our custom religions via choices with an in-game tool. TY!

I'm not religious (though open to the idea of 'something' being out there) but I respect your commitment to your belief system, OP.

It's an admirable trait, especially in an era where many individuals will cast aside even their supposedly firm beliefs on a whim just to get a perceived, momentary advantage.

what if someone believed in something evil. would you still admire them for staying firm and committed to their beliefs? just wondering.

I still hope for an Agnostic or Atheist line that has progression.

What is so hard to understand on the fact - > that Verra - is not our Earth ?

There is no Christianity, no Buddhism, no Islam, no Judaism, no Scientology, no flying Spaghetti-Monster, no nothing and nuffin'.

- instead the People of Verra will have the Religions they had in their own (Fantasy) Universe since whenever they had them.

That depends on various factors. Such as how open and honest they are in regards to their exact beliefs, intentions and goals as well as whether or not there's a perceived greater good at play.

I suppose it's worth clarifying that in such a case admiration is not equal to support and I would stand opposed to evil intent. Though I do believe it possible to have a certain degree of respect for one's rivals and enemies, potentially mutual respect at that.

I suppose, ultimately, I just prefer people being open, honest and consistent.

I agree with this! I admire many people of other religions even. Not the religion itself, but the persons dedication and how devout they are to it. Again, I admire the person for the effort they put into standing for what they believe, not the belief itself. Free-will is amazing!

Religion should have an impact on the way the map and node progresses. Not in terms of buffs or anything but how the story plays out. Horizontal progression but certainly no vertical progression.

I think "evil" is subjective to a person's perception and experiences. I do not have a RL faith i believe in, but I find all religions extremely interesting and have my respect for each of them. Fantasy or not, I look forward to whatever Verra will offer and regardless of what it is, in the end its important to know that we all have a choice in what we decide to join or be. If i end up joining a religious node, they will have my full LARPing faith

Like that guy looking forward to killing
