Nod: Religion or Ideology?

[JahSpoR 0]

Nod is an organisation, with a huge amount of military forces.

But Kane apparently has more in mind than just an organisation.

 

What's behind it?

 

A Relegion or an Ideology?

[TheBlackOut 7]

Don't think it can be decided by us.

Indeed, EA are steering it towards more of a religion in C&C3.

Nod is a mix of a country-state, religion and a corporation, whilst being, in true essence, none of the above.

I think it's a ideology for Westwood context, but EA made it religious...the worshipping of Tiberium...

Well, it was stated many times, including in an entry in the GDI Intel Database (C&C3), that, "The Brotherhood of Nod began to represent a globalized as well as a highly militant Abrahamic cult in modern times, showing the combined characteristics of a vast religious movement, a multi-national corporation and a boundaryless nation-state, while being none of the three in itself."

[Luk3us 63]

Whist they may say that, they are portrayed as stupid terrorists with some crazy leader....

 

I'm constantly saddened by what they have done to the once powerful Brotherhood of Nod.

Don't worry, your cyborg brethren will return... IN THE NAME OF KANE!

Isn't that what they really are? =

A bunch of crazies with an equally crazy leader? >_>

Crazy? Maybe. Tactical genius? Abso-****ing-lutely

Perhaps, but in TD and TS they were a bit more than your typical "blow myself up dickhead terrorists", they employed stealth and tactics and strategies against GDI.

 

Now Nod sends fanatics to blow up walls...

It feels like in the post-9/11 world EA wanted to accentuate that Nod were the bad guys by making them more religious, giving them suicide infantry (thus making ppl link them to GLA), etc. Total poo as far as I'm concerned. Luckily, Kane lifts Nod up a hundred miles into the sky and really saves the whole game from the hell known as mediocrity.

Not is a lifestylE!

[AfronovA 0]

The Brotherhood is a fake! its all being orchestrated by CABAL!

[Luk3us 63]

Lies. Nothing more than filthy propaganda perpetrated by GDI.

 

Shoot that man!

[JahSpoR 0]

But Ideoligy would be better than religion I think..

I feel nod has become darker these days.

 

People begins to see them as some kind of hellspawn or something.

Theire prolly Emos in C&C4 haha!

[AfronovA 0]

I belive in peace thru power! :lol:

 

DOWN WITH GDI!

[JahSpoR 0]

even if Kane became an emo? HAHA!

 

would look so stupid.. part of Nod is too look cool,.

[Luk3us 63]

How dare you cast the almighty saviour down with those "people". Ugh...

 

Shoot that man too!

[JahSpoR 0]

c'mon

 

Just said that Kane is not an emo and he never will be, If EA doesn't totally screw up the whole thing!
