In highschool I had an ultra religious friend who saved up for months to buy Final Fantasy III (6). He was having a great time playing it until about halfway through, where you have to talk to some demons to escape from a dream world. Even though you end up killing the demons, it was too much for him and he destroyed the cartridge with a hammer.

My younger brother threw our Castlevania 64 cartridge into the river after I explained the necronomicon in the opening to him. Sweet child was just doing what he thought Jesus wanted from him. Lol

It's so sad that Christians think Jesus hates fun.

Guy hung out with sex workers and drank wine with them.

I find it immensely hilarious that out of all the crazy shit in FF6 like suplexing the train that takes people to the afterlife, abducting a feral kid from the Veldt, plots with mind control tiaras, Moogle genocide, Kefka poisoning an entire castle full of people, and a globe-trotting homocidal octopus, it was the Three Dream Stooges that were the last straw for your friend.

...That game actually comes off sounding really weird if you try to describe it in a single paragraph.
