Ubisoft is unironically treating Christianity with more respect in recent games.
AC: Valhalla - dozens of churches you could enter. Granted for purpose of robbing, but they were tastefully recreated, and the MC Eivor was discouraged from killing innocent priests and clerics; even if not very Viking like.
Far Cry 6 - several enterable churches, tastefully recreated in a Caribbean aesthetic. The villain of the game burns a church to the ground and that is depicted as a bad thing.
Far Cry 5 - One of the main characters, Father Jerome, is a Catholic priest. Several missions involve the MC protecting a church from attack. Also, Joseph Seed was right; enough said.
One of said churches is what you rebuild from an abandoned town you liberate from a group of bandits. The church was explicitly given priority to build and is the centerpiece to the town.
Wait WHAT? Is this true?? You can't access a single Christian church in a game set in the MIDDLE AGES?
Meanwhile they had an entire Monastery in the first game and FIVE churches.
The Dragon Quest series treats Christianity and the middle ages with more respect than this game.
