[@snuffaluffagus1000]

as a long time fan of this franchise i'm very happy that SMT isnt a big thing here in India nor is it officially available on most systems here, 'cause boy this comment section is cringe, and the irony is that this is probably the only JRPG franchise that actually does proper justice to Hinduism lore and designs, these people just assume things in face value. I'm just here happy af to see a new Shiva 3D model in years, and they are using the Devil summoner pose !

Indeed, in the context of the story, there's really nothing disrespectful that I can see. Shiva is just doing his job, without malice, without being turned evil. From what I can tell, Hindu practitioners believe Shiva is not a sadistic destroyer of good, but just the natural step of tearing things down so they can be built back better, even sparing things that are still good. Which is exactly how SMT portrays him. And you're not fighting him out of disrespect either, you're simply letting him know that the time for destruction is not yet. The last point of contention seems to be calling Shiva a "demon" -- which has always been an awkward translation in the SMT franchise (depending on the game they can go by "akuma", "majū", or "nakami", the latter of which being a pun that means _"friend god")_ and in English is actually meant to play on the Greek word "daemon" which means "spirit"

@@PenguinsAreColdish so basically, lore wise we always have a team, gameplay wise we may not have a team

Are you fucking kidding me,U beat Mahadev,Lord Ganesha and Maa Kali with what these puny robots anf demons,I mean what an insult to Mythology,this game disgust me

[@runu4573]

Chill man it's a video game, it is FICTITIOUS and not real, in other games you are allowed to kill humans that does not mean you are allowed to or the game is telling you to kill people in real life because that is also not stated in any law or moral and ethical code anywhere around the world, games are not supposed to depict what is real but a fictitious imaginary what if scenario. Learn to separate reality from fiction

Vishnu was on the team as well

Taking our gods and making it demon???? A Hindu God that defeat demons is a demon? Why don't you all fight and beat up Jesus!!!

[@victorconcha33]

Jesus isn't a warrior, however his father YHVH was the antagonist and final boss of the previous game. So they went even harder

[@pugnome]

The premise of the game is that the abrahamic god who they call by their name is dead You fight YHVH as a boss in 2 of the games YHVH is a literal tyrant, who in 1 genocides humanity twice and attempts to do it a third time in 2 And its made by the Japanese, who also include their mythological figures, and in this game their heavenly gods have died The fact they made Shiva the strongest non DLC boss in the game is a testament to his status as the destroyer God They also don't make him out to be evil

[@voltwolf9839]

demon is just a broad term for the mythological stuff in this game, it doesn't ACTUALLY mean they are referring to the bad types of demon. an example of something like this would be the pokemon in pokemon, they just named it pokemon so it would be easier to indicate the entire roster of pokemon.

[@greasychickenugget4410]

because jesus isnt a god. however on multiple occasions we kill metatron, yhvh, and tons of other gods. its not just shiva...

[@luchakim7593]

in India, Shiva is a major god, where his illustrations, idols made to describe Shiva is treated with utmost respect. You cant fight Shiva and this is total disrespect. gonna file a case over this insensitive content.

This is offense to all indian and followers of lord shiva , this why people who dont know oyher country religion should use there respect God or mythical creatures/ characters for game or anything else .

[@seanbrennan698]

True.

[@seanbrennan698]

I find it odd how modern man seems to want to defeat the divine and master God as opposed to how ancient man would battle with God and it would lead to enlightenment and understanding of the relationship between Man and the divine. Om Namashivaya!

[@ajeshtantri9816]

Don't expect other countries to see Shiva the same way Indians do. This is far from disrespectful. If anything they understand Shiva better than some in this comment section who think he is the God of creation.

Actually as an Indian myself who actually knows the game lore, this actually paints lord Shiva in a very good light, by which I mean his power
