Has any game made it's own religion?
Has any indie game actually developed a real functional religion for it's lore?
Because I've been studying multiple religions, and I honestly, I believe there exists a Logos — a creator of the universe, as the theist philosophers say.
That creator being made the universe.
But—
The Demiurge is merely the manifestation of Lucifer, or the negative pole of reality.
Jesus or Allah are the positive pole of reality, and they stand at the summit of creation — in a way, they are manifestations and children of the creative Logos.
Similar to how in Hinduism there is a creator god from whom other gods are born.
Jesus and Allah are children of the Logos.
But then—
There exist divine beings who, in pagan, Amerindian, and Shinto religions, would be like Amaterasu, or Zeus, or Ganesha.
Pachamama belongs to this category of beings.
These would correspond, in Christianity, to the archangels, or to the sephiroth in Kabbalah.
They would act as planetary managers of different forces.
For example, these would scientifically correspond to forces of nature, and astrologically to entities such as the planets, the Moon, and the Sun.
Below them are more local beings — like nymphs, kami, or guardian angels — whose role is more like being the anima or spirit of nature, or in some way, the guardian angels of a forest or an animal.
Below those would be the more primitive spiritual beings, such as goblins or pixies.
Finally, the Demiurge would also have a similar hierarchy.
At the top of his ranks would be the great generals of the Demiurge — the great demons like the Asuras or Mammon — who would bring about natural disasters.
Below them would be the fallen angels — the oni, ogres, demons, ghouls, vampires, lesser demons, archons.
Their function would be to cause temptation in humans, so that humans generate karma and suffering, which would serve as a kind of spiritual nourishment for those beings.
