RE: Of Myths and Legends. The Shin Megami Tensei Franchise
oh yea, im into gods but not religion except in an intellectual fact way, like Thor isn't nearly as pretty in the Norse pantheon as he is in the Marvel movies. Some of their rewrites are so imaginative I wonder which shrooms they ate. And agree, its not anime at all I just like talking about gods and culture, not many people do. Campbell is an iconic mythology master who wrote tons on all the world myths way back when. His writing is a bit dry, but for all that his knowledge was extensive.
Oh man, I laughed a lot with that "I wonder which shrooms they ate". Yeah, they make Thor like some sexy prince with a thunder hammer that flies all over the place beating the bad guys, LOL, they forget the grumpy attitude, the long beard, the 2 meter tall burly body build, etc... heck they make Thor an american instead of a viking, same applies with Loki BTW. Well, we can always talk a bit about these matter anywhere, I like learning more about these things. I admit I learned a lot playing SMT because they have gods from many cultures worldwide and not just the classic ones you see everywhere so it's interesting for me.
exact! there are a ton of gods that get no traction. tho i do admit casting chris hemsworth was genius. ;)
