This is the video game equivalent to “Mother.” God... fuck that stupid ass movie. Talk about a lobotomy.
The world has undergonethe rapture
Those who are left are desperately trying to come together and maintain some form of society to survive (but people are still split into factions vying for resources, as demonstrated by the fact that they attack eachother for supplies)
The BT:s are honest to god demons and their entire purpose is to drag people to Hell
The eternal battleground where people from all eras are fighting a neverending battle is Hell
Killing people is bad because it's a sin and attracts the demons (and also because that's one less human for the rebuilding effort)
Only by linking yourself with a truly innocent being (the baby) and possibly by sacrificing it can you return from Hell
The exception to this are people who have "connections to the other side", who seem to be able to traverse between the realms at will and also appear to be the bad guys
The obsession the game has with making connections and the desire to "reconnect" refers to the spiritual connection between people and god that has been severed
Where were you when Kojima made christian kino?
Some people already have interesting theories about it, from a Christian perspective, I'd be more interested in the game if this was the real core of the story. But I don't think Kojima really knows anything about it or is really interested in it. He's just using this for the theme of "uniting the world" it's The Boss and the Patriots' Babelic dream all over again.When it comes to Rapture, the belief is all souls are stuck in oblivion until the second coming, during which all the dead will be resurrected and souls will be judged going either to Hell or Heaven. Which means for the last 2 thousands years not a single soul has rested. Coincidentally it mostly fits with what we've seen; all souls being permanently stuck fighting in an eternal war unable to pass on.
I cannot be even bothered to watch the trailer.
