During Phantasy Star II, you can come across a lot of people who talk about how great Mother Brain is supposed to be. She provides everything, no one has to work, and so on. One person even refuses to believe that she is capable of making mistakes.
I've always thought that PSII completely did away with the presence of religion in Algo, creating a more secular society. However, taking those NPCs into account makes me wonder if the old religion may have just been replaced with a new religion where Mother Brain is worshiped as a deity. What do you think?
