Couldn't even use your pronouns or see the actual fucking elephant in the room of you talking about your religious trauma. Like c'mon. That's not just rude, it's tacky as fuck

Nah, The Binding of Isaac was an awesome story about how toxic and dangerous religious fundamentalism is, as well as how messed up someone's mind can get from trauma.
I'm surprised that it wasn't labeled as a psychological horror.

Madoka does a good job at this too esp with it's use of catholic symbolism and tropes. I'm trying to use numerology and tarot stuff as a starting point for symbolism along with Christianity since my story Eristical does cover religious trauma

i’ve spent a lot of time working through religious trauma & am generally in a good place now
but i sometimes i almost wish i could believe in the hellfire and brimstone that gave me nightmares as a child
just so some people could go there

Eh, a lot of this was just folks (understandably) being weird about religious white liberals being open about their faith.
Which I get, though people greatly overreacted to it, even accounting for trauma.

Religious trauma is real, but so is horniness born from it. Like damn how I end up liking the “deadly” sin of gluttony and being a mindless tool for women of authority to boss me around. Body worship being blasphemous. Got my fat ass bricked up.

So like, yes, but in the context of the previous game "The binding of Isaac" which was about religious trauma and childhood abuse and all sorts of knarly hard to tackle stuff, folks fully expected there to be something more to this but as far as I can tell there isn't anything deeper than the cats

Wanna celebrate Valentine's Day early? Know anyone who likes a tension-filled sapphic romantasy that rips its own heart out in front of you, just to perform surgery on itself last-minute?

From the comments: "Not everything goes back to your religious trauma" is one thing but "Some of the things wrong with you might be inborn and passed along to your kids no matter what you do" to a guy who just became a father is like an emotional nuclear bomb.

Everyone has their own personal preferences, but there are some things that people at least shouldn't be surprised about. Oh, Mewgenics has too much poop and religious trauma and crass humor? The Edmund McMillen game? Sure man and that last Mario game went in way too hard with the turtles

The Binding of Isaac was about familial and religious trauma. Mewgenics is about living in the decaying remains of a nation that’s the inbred bastard child of Nazis and plantation owners

As someone familiar with Edmund's body of work, it's not out of character. I do feel like there's a lack of any actual point to it this go around, At least The Binding Of Isaac was a story about religious trauma and the fallout of a neglectful family leading to the death of a child.

Also, talk about missing the fucking point of the game. The point was to talk about how damaging religious trauma can be to kids. And now... this? Aaargh.

I have such a complicated relationship with fundamentalism due to religious trauma. You'll find obvious stand-ins for the Church in the antagonists of my books, like militant worshippers of the Crimson God in Bride of the Elven Innkeeper. <1/2>
