You won't find a Xian MMORPG. There isn't enough market for it and the money put in to design it and publish it isn't worth the cost cause you would lose a lot of money.

As for the non-magic aspect of it, you are hard pressed to find a MMO that doesn't have it. The Matrix Online is coming out soon and should be pretty decent.

yea, all MMORPG's are based on magic and stuff, when christianity is againist it. I can't even really think of a christian storyline at all. That would own if some designers made one. I would attemp to make one but if i would be the only one coding it, it'll be around 3 years till i would be done.

Correct me if I'm wrong, but Doom has nothing to do with hell but fighting alien invaders, yes?

From www.idsoftware.com :

"The complete megahit game that set the world afire. Plus All-New Episode IV: Thy Flesh Consumed

The demons came and the Space Marines died. Except one. Your are the last defense against these hell-spawned hordes. Prepare for the most intense mutant-laden, blood-splattered action ever! The texture-mapped virtual world is so real, you don't just play DOOM - you live it. (snip)"

========

"Let the Obsession begin. Again.

This time, the entire forces of the netherworld have overrun Earth. To save her, you must descend into the stygian depths of Hell itself!

Battle mightier, nastier, deadlier demons and monsters. Use more powerful weapons. Survive more mind-blowing explosions and more of the bloodiest, fiercest, most awesome blastfest ever! (snip)"

========

"Two New, 32-Level DOOM II Episodes.

Evilution:

Far from earth, the UAC recommenced their experiments on on of the moons of Jupiter. A spaceship, mistaken for a supply vexxel on radar, hovered above the base. Hideous demons poured out, blanketing the base with death. All your comrades were quickly slaughtered or zombified. This time, it's not about survival. It's about revenge.

The Plutonia Experiment:

Every effort has been made by the nation's top scientists to close the seven interdimensional Gates of Hell, but one portal remains open. Alone, you must infiltrate the ravaged complex, defeat the demon Gatekeeper and seal the last Hell-hole before the undead are prepared to, once again, take over the world."


Hey cool.

LOL...Doom is a holy game in many respects! It's taking a new slant on 'resist the devil and he will flee'!

However...to go back to the previous point; I'd say that 90% of FPS games are just violent trash (I'm not judging; they're just not for me; I'm a strategy/RPG man) with little moral content save killing your foes in graphic and glorified ways. I'm not saying that making that violence Christian justifies it; but if the mind can be on God and Christ when enjoying a gaming session; I consider myself blessed!

Interesting. For what magazine?
It's a UK magazine called gamesTM; which you might not be able to read stateside!

Feel free to drop in on my games website, though; I do a fair few reviews there, and free games from publishers is always a boon!
