Vol.2 of mashing all my bbgs into one post

After a “long” while of my last post I decided to finally get around to putting peoples requests and recommendations of their fav priests into the format. Keep in mind I don’t know who most of these characters are and I mainly put them in here because they were requested and matched up to the descriptions. Id be lying if I said it wasn’t impossible to squeeze them all into one thing. Thank you all for showing off your deranged priest bbgs!

Does Jacob Seed believe in God?

It’s a popular theory that, even though the oldest Seed brother is part of the Project at Eden’s Gate, he only has faith in his own ideology and doesn’t necessarily believe in God or the Voice. So is Jacob one of Joseph’s Heralds simply because he wants to support his brother and use his influence to his advantage, or does he actually believe in a higher power and in the Father’s message?

The first time we come (very) close to Jacob, during the mission “The World is Weak”, he explains why he thinks humanity has “forgotten what it is to be strong”. He says that “our heroes used to be gods” but that they are now, among other flaws, “godless”. If Jacob associates godlessness, so the lack of faith in God, with weakness, one of the things he criticizes the most, it implies to me that he thinks believing in God is a quality, so he most likely does too.

The next time the Deputy is captured by Jacob’s soldiers, he stays in the background to let Joseph talk to them and explain how he lost his wife and daughter. The Father tells this story in the Whitetail Mountains for a reason: it’s about pain, sacrifice, being tested, and doing whatever we’re asked to prove our devotion. Although Jacob doesn’t say anything to the Junior Deputy in that scene, the pained expression on his face proves that Joseph’s speech affects and resonates with him, and we only fully understand why the next time we meet him.

The third time the Deputy gets captured and ends up in one of Jacob’s cages, he too has a story to tell. While he casually shows how submissive and “well-trained” Pratt has now become, he talks about his experience in the military and more specifically during the First Gulf War. He explains how he and another soldier, Miller, got separated from their unit without food, water, or radio, and had to survive in the desert. When he realized, after eight days, that they were most likely going to die, he accepted his fate. “And in that acceptance came clarity”, he explains, and before he says the last two words, Jacob pauses and looks at the sky. In my opinion, this may indicate he believes this epiphany was of a divine nature.

When he continues his story, he says sacrificing Miller so he could survive “wasn’t something [he] wanted” but “something that [he] had to do” before concluding that it was “[his] test” and looking at the sky once more. Again, to me, this suggests he believes that this “test”, this sacrifice he didn’t want to make but thought had to happen, was a divine trial, a “test of faith”, exactly like Joseph killing his own daughter. And in order to join his army, people are expected to do the same: they must sacrifice something (or someone) that’s holding them back. To Jacob, it appears a sacrifice is not just about the “weak vs. strong” ideology and culling the herd, it’s also how you prove your devotion, your commitment to the Project, to the Father and, by extension, to God.

In his final moments, Jacob says what led many people to conclude he was possibly an atheist: “My brother saw all this coming. I don’t know if he talks to God... that doesn’t matter. He was right.” I don’t think this means he doesn’t believe in a higher power, though. Many other characters in Far Cry 5, such as Jerome or Grace, clearly are religious but also think Joseph is a false prophet and that there’s no way the Voice he claims he heard is God’s. Here, Jacob doesn’t say it’s not true and that the Voice isn’t real; he simply admits that he doesn’t know if Joseph can communicate with God.

So, in my opinion, it’s very likely that Jacob believes in a higher power and that part of what he does to people has a religious significance. That said, as he takes his last breath, whether or not the Voice Joseph hears belongs to God doesn’t matter much to the Soldier anymore. What does, and what he seems to be certain of, is that he was right to believe in his brother.

John's note to Pastor Jerome

Heretic Jerome, You’ve listened to us. We’ve listened to you. We gave you time to think. LISTENING AND THINKING TIME IS OVER! You can’t protect your people from The Collapse! Only THE FATHER can! John Seed

A quiet Fall's End morning

[dumbassdep]

In case you've ever wondered what Jeremiah 23:16 says:

This is what the Lord Almighty says:

“Do not listen to what the prophets are prophesying to you;     they fill you with false hopes. They speak visions from their own minds,     not from the mouth of the Lord."

Pastor Jerome is taking none of Josephs shit.

Chapter 48: But Every Man is Tempted, When He is Drawn Away of His Own Lust and Enticed

Summary:

A short chapter dealing with the aftermath of Kit and John's failed attempt to take Fall's End. Kit must make her escape and stop John's attack on the Ryes, Jerome must save Grace from the burning church, and John follows through on his promise to tell Joseph what Kit and Jacob have been getting up to in the mountains

A/N: This is my "it doesn't have to be perfect, it just has to be done" chapter before we get into the nitty gritty of things, so get ready for lots of swapping POVs to tie up loose ends :)

Pastor Jerome Jefferies features prominently in the Holland Valley storyline. If you take too long to liberate Fall End, he actually ends up doing it. He also saves your character from capture during "The Cleansing".

Aaron "Tweak" Kirby is a drug maker/dealer and features first in the quest "fast", he improves how effective the steroid drug things you're able to take.

Today I'm thinking about John Seed's baby blues looking at you placing your hand on the gun Word of Joseph.

Look at him!

How could you not say go fuck yourself yes to him?

[reefman-archive]

I’ve always seen that live action trailer clip of the girl being drowned but I never actual saw the trailer so I’ve only just now found out that was Jerome’s daughter??? It’s never mentioned in the games at all so I assume it was a cut storyline but why cut something that was in a trailer? And why does the wiki not mention it at all? Like not even in the Trivia section? They seem to like cutting dead kid plot lines since Grace had one cut too
