??? oh, sorry, misuse of word. brute as in power, not as in violence. dont get all ***OHH!!! DEMONS!!! AHHH!!! RUNN!!!*** on me, but it is very slightly similar to dnd. its story involves a lot of pain, mental, the ground is littered with corpses, there are about.... 8 people alive in the world. and several die. every monster is reanimated corpses. you can get up and fully customize your char. choosing between hacking with a dagger, shooting with a sling, and blasting enemies with magic at distance. no gore, just pre-generated corpses. implied gore. you may like it. or maybe not. it is a pint and click style movement game. (at least, I couldn't get arrow keys to work.)
What about me gives you the impression I'd say something like "***OHH!!! DEMONS!!! AHHH!!! RUNN!!!***"?
Advice. Don't say to people "don't get all..." it won't be received well. It's viewed as you telling someone they are not aloud to feel a certain way around you. If I or anyone else responds that way it's their perogative.

It sounds somewhat similar to Diablo 3. I played that some, but don't enjoy the click to move aspect. I prefer first or third person games with open worlds. The limited mobility and lack of exploration in other types of games gets old a bit fast for me personally.

I'm guessing he has probably been roasted multiple times by massive overreaction from people on this very forum. His precaution is understandable, if in this case unwarranted.

Well rest assured I am not one of those people to yell demon about everything. While I do believe they exist and affect the world and people, it seems viable that people's sin nature is more than enough to ruin the world without blaming demons for everything.
But using that statement isn't ideal. Those who will freak out won't listen, and those who won't freak out may take offense. No worries. I didn't think you had bad intentions. Just passing along some helpful advice.

And I'm well aware of the beliefs many Christians have about DnD. They were saying the same things when I was your age. And before that even. Basically since it became popular.

As a Christian you'll encounter many Christians quick to criticize, dismiss or demonize many things. Just say what you have to say and see how people react. If it's unfavorable then take that as knowledge about that person and limit what you discuss with them. Those who are favorable, or even willing to share with you calmly why they believe something is bad, give them a chance. They may have insights that have not occurred to you.
But people that freak out, don't listen to them.
From my experience as someone who has had tastes in things many Christians disagree with i have found this approach is best. So hopefully you can learn from my experience and save yourself some trouble in the future.
