Re: Review: Cult Of The Lamb - Animal Crossing Goes Bad In This Satisfyingly Stressful Sim

@HeadPirate It was a legitimate question. If all you're saying is that many games promote Christian values without supporting Christianity per se, then I suppose you have a point. To the extent that religion gives insight into moral values, many games do reflect Christianity. Perhaps saying games "reflect Christian values" would be clearer than saying they "show Christianity in a positive light." After all, it obviously wasn't the evil focus of the game that made me think of it as a Christian allegory but rather, as @Not_Soos put it, the concept that the game "overtly evokes biblical imagery by using the lamb as a symbol and parodying quotes from scripture." But I get what you're saying better now, that many games promote Christian values, if not the religions directly. It'd be nice if the games promoting Christian values were the ones alluding to quotes from Scripture and similar allegorical references, but beyond that point, I think we're in agreement.

@HeadPirate Don't most games ignore Christianity entirely? It doesn't seem accurate to claim most games portray "Christianity and faith based originations [as] a force for almost universal good." On the contrary, few games touch on Christianity, and among the few that do address religion are satires like The Binding of Isaac and Cult of the Lamb. Are you saying there are many more games that address Christianity positively (rather than ignoring it) than games portraying Christianity negatively?

Re: Soapbox: Two Ace Attorneys Are Trapped On 3DS eShop, So It's About Time For A New Trilogy

I played through the first two games from the original trilogy and am currently on Trials and Tribulations. I definitely will get the next three games soon--even if they weren't about to be banished to the mobile-only realm (or non-3D DS, in the case of Apollo Justice).

P.S. This also meant I couldn't read the entire article due to spoilers, sadly. But thanks for the spoiler warning, @KateGray!

Question: How do I link my Switch account on Among Us to my Steam account? While Steam has the link buttons and things, the Switch version does not on mine, for some reason.
