>religious character is... nuanced and not comically evil?!
how did they get away with it?

Troons hate him

Chuds have an unhealthy homoerotic attachment to this character. Apparently some even become religious because of him, performing circumcisions on themselves to be closer to Yaweh. Very strange behaviour.

He's the ex-general of a genocidal dictator that regains his faith and seeks redemption but you still end up needing to talk him down from further genocide.
>>712535625 beat me to the punch.
You can file Joshua Graham under the same category as Arthur Morgan in that impressionable retards find it easy to overlook everything he's done because he's cool or something, or they like listening to his VA recite scripture.
We don't need flaming bandage man, we have Randall Clark.

you won’t get this in a jrpg

This is literally one of the best written characters in any game.
I think people that dislike him vehemently should avoid going into the arts because they will only create shit.

>>712535625
>>712535998
not only that, but if he goes through with the genocide he just The Legion again with a different name

>>712537914
>best written
Meaningless statement unless it is explained. You might as well have just said, "Joshua Graham is the bestest character ever because he's Literally Me and Eh kills triabls and doesn't afraid of anything."

>>712533889 (OP)
Yeah, obviously that's not how religious people actually are in real life.

he is comically evil wtf are you talking about? what about his character seems so redeeming to people? all his dialog is about justifying murder. he was legate for a slaver army. He is literally evil.

>>712533889 (OP)
>religious character not comically evil

that's why he's badly written

>>712534069
mormons dont allow circumcision

>>712533889 (OP)
I actually gave a sermon on this guy at my church a couple years ago. He’s an excellently written OT style hero but the nuance and allegory is completely missed on a surface reading, and that’s all most anyone is capable of doing (see: the way everyone misinterprets the book of Job). It could have been entirely unintentional but either way we got a great story. No I’m not going to explain further, I’ve done it before and this thread is already overrun with pseudointellectual anti-Christians with an axe to grind.

The only few people i found were either the ones who overanalyze everything, or people who actually think the Courier is a demigod or some shit and thus it doesn't make any sense that a guy with a single pistol and third degree burns all over his body should be able to double tap them instantly should they try to be retarded and shoot at the guy who canonically can have more than 50 levels more than you at any time because of how many people he has killed.

Wrong. They’re just like Christians and believe the law has been fulfilled and circumcision is no longer required but it is not prohibited. God would not have instituted something evil, so some choose two and some don’t.

most cringe character ever

the white legs fucking deserved it, the sorrows are gonna need to buck up like the dead horses did and daniel just needs to stop crying for them

Why do all the dlcs require such high speech checks? The caravan at the start on zion was kino and I love the interaction with the addict, really thought we'd have more skill checks and rp involved, but all the dlcs are like this

>you can't fight back against the enemy that is actively trying to genocide your tribe because... you just can't, okay chud?!

>>712544925
>he went to ch*rch

>>712547541
most of the DLCs are meant to be done with a late midgame character and a lot of speech checks overlap so you can pass them with multiple different skills

fuck whoever decided to put perception 7 checks everywhere though

>Evil character uses God as a way to get away with being a murderous piece of shit
Woah, i've seen enough, give Israel another 6,000,000,000,000,000,000

>>712533889 (OP)
They made him a trans allegory so leftists would allow it

Why doesn't he just go get that implant that lets you regenerate?

>>712534069
Chuds are masochists, they believe in order to become a better man they need to suffer. Probably due religion telling them the story of that brown guy getting crucified and then arising to heaven.

>>712551089
>they believe in order to become a better man they need to suffer
This is simple fact, though.

>>712535998
>>712538326
But that's literally his entire gimmick that you can end up resolving with his last Speech check. He thought he became a different, better man, but in truth he didn't change at all. Ulysses even hints at this too when he copes about why he never went after Joshua. You help him realize this, that he called his own battles God's battles instead of the other way around to justify his actions.

It's true, that's why Tolkien said to write characters who suffer

>>712535625
>>712535998
Isn't that hipocrisy kind of the point the writer wanted to get across? that's how it felt to me, especially with how Daniel really tries to oppose him, it's something the writers want you to be thinking about, he's not presented as some moral paragon of virtue
