Guess not many people played them. Always fun to remember how Breath of Fire II and III got away with highly controversial despictions of God and the church in a time where EVERYTHING got censored.

I mean, Timothy LaHaye's "theology" is about as harebrained as they come, but a game based off of it gets made, while Final Fantasy mention of "goddesses" drew harsh glares from self-censoring publishers worried that the Jesus contingent would freak out. When in reality, no one really cared. People that religious weren't about to let their kids play a fantasy roleplaying game anyway.

Also, good point NooB. That made me remember that the music for the Fire Temple in Ocarina of Time had that same issue that LittleBigPlanet had! I’m also curious as to what a “modet fee” is!
