As much as I appreciate the polytheistic pantheon created by original devs I think more ideologies, political or secular, could have been woven in to another layer of character depth. How to actually integrate other belief systems into a fantasy setting is another question altogether.
If EQ had added in the following mimicking reality:
-three versions of a competing Monothesitic faith
-having some secular faiths a-la Socialism, Wokeism
-a few totalizing political idealologies with no room for the divine, Fascism and Communism
-some woo woo options such as Astrology, Zodiac stuff
The possibilities of the faction system layering could have gotten a lot more interesting is what I'm trying to say.
Faction seems to be something many modern games have forgotten about.
