What I meant was presumably it has murder and blood sacrifice, it would be a pretty poor cult game without those. And if that's true, that sounds like an M rating to me.
I'm an atheist, I don't have a dog in the "Satan v. God of Abraham" fight.
None of that has ever warranted an M rating unless it's graphically depicted.
Can you give an example of another game with unambiguous premeditated murder on the part of the main character, that isn't either in self-defense or as part of a war? I'm trying to think of any but I'm coming up short.
Interesting question honestly. Sims 4 (rated T) certainly allows you to kill off Sims, but you're an omnipotent being, it doesn't have Sim-on-Sim murder. I think this is true for a lot of simulation games where the player isn't a character in the world. Cult of the Lamb is obviously inspired by those games, but also makes the leap to you being represented by a character.
