It wouldn’t make sense. As for saying that they’re doing it for money, just shows how much you actually know about the game itself, it is Free to Play, they don’t make money of the gods themselves, atleast not normally, although there are ways to pay to play gods.
Another thing, saying that they’re degrading gods and goddess by depicting them in a pornographic manner, let’s take a look at some pictures of Kali from India, in almost every drawing she’s practically wearing nothing, that’s just accuracy to the real thing, you can’t blame them for having semi nude goddesses if in all the ancient pictures the goddesses are naked.
Finally I’d like to conclude by saying that I understand both sides of this argument completely and this is simply my opinion with no offense intended.

Then again, they do pick their targets well, we’re rational, reasonable, and generally peaceful people. I know of a religion that would do something drastic if they were to be targeted, corporations are well aware of this.

They’re cowards, they avoid those who they know will retaliate, and target us. Just my two cents.
