but wait! in order to Med, you have to have your nose in the bible until you reach level 30! (seriously though i wouldnt be opposed to the Cleric or Paladin class having to pray to their diety for their powers, this already existed in D&D)

Well they seem to have cut cost by quite a lot by using stock assets and not hiring talent for original art work.

While its fun to joke about the injection of christian elements into the "game" (i'll call it that for sake of discussion), it isn't too much of an exaggeration...
Lets just stop and appreciate that Undead as a concept were considered too satanic and had to be replaced by Merpeople, that evil gods were all together removed and the existence of 1 neutral deity is a point of contention within the team and that in all likelihood Necromancers, Dark Knights, etc have all been removed from the limited, impotent design doc if one exists at all.

My read of this is that they are trying to polish before approaching investors..

Wait what...
By that logic they will have to remove mana as it's a form of materialized spiritual energy. Something regarded closely to druidic paganism in christian history.

It's just a insult to real devs (if any "real" devs are even left) in the game industry. It's using stock garage band loops to make a song and then call it my own creation.

Manna (Hebrew: ?????) or al-Mann wa al-Salwa (Arabic: ?????? ? ???????, Kurdish: gezo, Persian: ?????????), sometimes or archaically spelled mana, is an edible substance that, according to the Bible and the Quran,[1] God provided for the Israelites during their travels in the desert.

Real devs don't care if people use stock assets. It's stamping the original tag on it that bothers people. Like you said.
If some Indy devs created a solid mmo using unity and store bought stuff, it would only help the industry. Assuming they ran with either an original idea or went old school. Certainly if they became a huge hit. your average gamer wouldn't know the difference. Indy is the way of the future if you're looking for a game like OG EQ!

It goes beyond the stock unity assets though, it was the previously done and unrelated "concept" art they attempted to brand as relating to Pantheon when in fact it was simply purchased and relabeled after the fact to give the illusion of competency. That painting of the sea-side port town? That was put up on Deviant art years ago. etc etc
Us regular posters knew that, I just wanted to once again highlight the reoccuring theme with both this project and McQuaid himself, its like when the Iranian military unveils their new fighter jet and its a particleboard mock up and its just sad. You know the Iranians are incapable of independently designing and producing a cutting edge piece of aerospace technology, and they know it too, but that doesn't stop them from shitting some papermache together, pretending its real, and then acting arrogant as fuck about it on the world stage.
= Pantheon
Thought you were leaving?
Anyways, nobody gives a shit about lore, not a single game in history made me go "this lore is so fucking awesome, even though the game is terrible, the lore makes it worth it!"
