What can you tell me about these games content wise? I have two pet peeves that will keep from getting a game: the condoning of a philosophy I disagree with[including the Evil Christian-Like Church (TM)] and the condoning of premarital sex.
I decided to try to get Radiata Stories because I've heard good things about it and I've also heard that it might become scarce soon. I'm not planing on getting the Shadow Hearts series quite yet, but I may get them eventually.
So, come on, gimme the rundown. Your help would be appreciated.

Radiata Stories is an excellent game. I'm right in the middle of it and I can tell you it is incredible when you first play it you are overwhelmed but you get used to it.
As for the Christian elements: It's interesting in some ways becuase it could be considered pro-christian.
Christianity in this game represents the Olacian Order.
In it there are those who are Old Generation and New Generation.
The New Generation are elistists who just obsessed with money and are corrupt, but the old generations are very humble and devoted and good.
And they are also much better at fighting.
So in someways it paints a very fair and accurate depiction of christianity.
Some of the people are selfish and evil.
But many are very good.

If shadow hearts is the game i remeber trying a while back dont get it! If i remeber correctly the end boss is called something like (the son of god) or something like that. I never finished it but when it started to get weird i read into it on gamefaqs and other places.

Well that's suprising. I guess I'll be getting this game pretty soon, then.

I just checked on gamefaqs myself and the end bosses are called Messiah and Meta-God. Looks like I'm going to be skipping the Shadow Hearts series.
