The story is praised for its intriguing and nuanced take on biblical themes, particularly focusing on a cyberpunk retelling of Jesus' time with engaging twists that keep players invested. While some find the narrative occasionally on-the-nose or feel the pacing, especially towards the ending and final boss introduction, could be improved, the overall plot and character depth are strong and compelling. The game also offers a story mode for those more interested in the narrative than gameplay, enhancing accessibility and replay value.
- “The story, the gameplay, it's all incredible!”
- “Super interesting story that is a cyberpunk/futuristic take on biblical stories, in this case those surrounding Jesus' time, while the first was more about Old Testament stories.”
- “I particularly enjoyed trying to figure out how the various biblical elements, both from Gnostic and non-Gnostic interpretations, would fit together as I progressed through the story.”
- “The story beats may be a bit too on the nose.”
- “The world feels emptier, and there is easily a lot less to do in this game than the first (no side quests or optional bosses).”
- “Is that what the story is trying to tell the player?”
