VISIONS: A Christian MMORPG
Diverse | 10:34 AM on 11.04.2009 11 comments




VISIONS is an upcoming MMORPG with a Christian theme, masterminded and developed by a lonely housewife(Laurene Wells) out of the great state of Oregon. This is all played out in the first person, so it's like you're really living and experiencing biblical history with your own eyes! Doesn't that sound fun? Of course, don't take my word for it. Just listen to all the great things Laurene's family members have to say about VISIONS.

Now, I know all of you are dying to play this game, but there's one problem. Laurene needs approximately 60,000 dollars to fund VISIONS. Won't you be a good Christian gamer and donate to her cause? Head over to Kickstarter to donate and watch the trailer for this soon to be blockbuster hit. Don't go thinking your donations will be unrewarded. Laurene has set-up some fabulous prizes for those who decide to donate. These can range to special forum access where you can discuss VISIONS, or if you decide to donate 3000 dollars or more, you stand to receive the privilege to name an NPC and a signed copy of the game by Laurene herself! A true VISIONary indeed.

This has been tried before - many, many, many times.

I suspect that with that $60,000 dollars she raises, that she will probably pay herself $50,000 dollars as a salary. Nice gig if you can get it I guess. She doesn't even really have to finish the game... just show it's a work in progress, appeal to those Christian values and collect a nice salary.

People can already go out and buy one of the many Christian games based on the life of Jesus and the Bible that were released years ago for the PC.

wow... I'm getting cynical in my old age and just assume stuff like this is a rip off meant to separate good Christians from their money. She actually has a bunch of stuff on the go, all Christian related and seems serious about this. The money likely does go to the game but the sad reality is that there is no market.

Again, it's been tried before and failed. With the many options for "family friendly" games out there, the market for Christian themed games is possibly even worst than it was in the 80's when a ton of these games first seemed to come out.

Eh.. I wish her the best of luck, but no donation from me.

I think I'm rivaling Elsa in cynicism, as the first thing I thought of after reading this was "God said he'll kill me unless you give me 2 million dollars"...or whatever that old scam was. Hopefully the game will include a Jesus-themed amusement park area and the option to babble "in tongues" for cash just to complete the setting.

Wow, I better get out my life savings! This is better than the time I lost twenty grand sponsoring a Muslim FPS. What was it called... "Killing American Dogs" or something like that.

But the very nature of turning stories from the bible into interactive play is enabling misinterpretation of God's word. So it will bear false witness, take the Lord's name in vain, generally be a whole big bag of blasphemy.
One might as well take Killzone, sprinkle it with some names from the Bible and voilà, OMG Christian Gamez.
