Mughal-Sikh conflicts, insane persecution of non-believers, that sort of stuff. That's really the gist of it.

Huh, will look it up, sounds interesting.

I mean, these ancient scriptures and epics have been heavily interpolated, edited, and extrapolated through the years as they were verbally/orthographically passed down over generations. So, no.
But yes, the ancient Vedic civilisation did indeed manage to come with up with facts such as the earth is spherical, the universe is infinite, basic composition of stars, etc. Heck, they even managed to accurately describe the working of the solar system upto 6 planets.
They came up with a holy Trinity of the creator God (Brahma), the preserver God (Maha-Vishnu), and the destroyer God (Sada-Shiva) who are basically the same beings performing 3 different roles in 3 different forms. They also stated that every universe has its own holy Trinity.

Yeah, those texts are extremely philosophical. If you manage to read all the 4 Vedas, you'd be questioning your existence.

Does anyone know where it's said Odin made multiple realms from Ymir's flesh? Trying to work on his AP section in my sandbox for him and I know for a fact it's said somewhere but for the life of me I can't find anything besides the one statement in 2018 that only talks about him creating Midgard.

Basically, Para-Brahman is incomprehensibly beyond form, math, logic, comprehension, conceptualisations, dualities, and is so detached from the maya of the endlessly proliferating as well as infinite dimensional multiverse that it's all like a dream for him. He's the highest form of existence and the supreme truth/end-all-be-all in the Hindu epics.

Would Hinduism/buddhism be tier 0 by infinite higher infinites?
- 32,835
- 38,065
Yes. Look up the part where Mimir and Atreus talk about all the giants the Aesir have killed.
Better yet, here you go.

Para-Brahman would for sure be as per his descriptions. I mean, he should be totally beyond the tiering system. But 0 is the highest tier we can give.

They'll probably not bring him up in a fight. But if it's Hindu myth, it's existence will definitely be mentioned.
It's Apophatic Theology being linked to dimensionality with good scans will get it to 1A

Maybe, cause' Mimir is pretty clear about it being metaphorical and not a real place. But it is a real place.

Ah it was Mimir and Atreus recalling what he did in the boat, for some reason I kept thinking him creating the realms was mentioned when Atreus went to Ironwood.

When you will finish your sandbox could you show it?

No. The oldest Veda (Rig Veda) is easily 8,000 years old.

Egyptian mythology is 4000 years old (maybe older but not by much) hindu is 7000 to 8000 years old.

IIRC Mesopotamia is older than Egyptian Mythology while India out-ages it by a couple thousand years more.
- 5,423

Yeah Mesopotamia is 4000-5000 years old
- 5,423

Probably not. I at least hope they give some background lore and shit for hindu gods tho

And if we are talking about civilization as a whole it's the oldest in the world.

Not gonna happen. Hinduism is the 3rd biggest religion in the world with nearly 1.3 billion followers. At best, they can make a game taking light inspirations from Hindu/Buddhist ancient texts like Asura's Wrath. But even that would invite a lot of controversy. I really want Kratos to go to Shinto myths next though. They're not very controversies at all. They also have feats and descriptions which rival the consistent power level and hierarchies of Buddhism, which is almost on par with Hinduism.

hmm i see, but does the controversy would hurt the sales or something tho ? because you know only 3 millions hindu in USA

Yeah, just gotta find that list KingTempest posted in this mess.
But I'm itching to get the BoC and Blades of Athena profiles done first, but the renders for those haven't been done yet.

The game will get banned in India which is a huge market for Sony. So unlikely. They can still do Buddhism and Shinto myths though.

So you agree on infinite sized realms now, mate?
