"New Action Adventure Game I, The Inquisitor Officially Revealed

A brand new action-adventure game I, The Inquisitor has just been revealed with an intriguing-sounding story premise and a trailer that has divided commentary. Based on the bestselling books by Jacek Piekara, I, The Inquisitor is a dark and story-rich adventure that puts players in the shoes of a religious Inquisitor in the 1500s.

In this alternate version of religious history, Jesus of Nazareth didn’t die on the cross. Instead, he got pretty furious about the whole thing (as you might expect) and responded to his crucifixion with a whole lot of rage rather than forgiveness and compassion.

It turns out that Jesus then creates his own order in the form of an army of Inquisitors, whose job it is to root out sinners and nonbelievers and either show them mercy or punish them. A few centuries on and this Church is pretty blood-soaked and definitely morally tainted, so working out who deserves punishment and who does not should prove to be quite complex work. It’s all very gritty and premise-wise, sounds very interesting. Check out the reveal trailer in full here."

Sorry, but I fail to see where the history "alternates".
Looks to me like all is as it ever was?

Maybe not in this regard, but it deviates quite a bit as far as Jesus post-crucifixon is concerned? Looks like instead of ascending to join his old man he stayed on Earth to form this army of Inquisitors.

Depending on whether you subscribe to the notion of the bible being a work of fiction or not, it's not even "alternate history" in the first place.
From that trailer it looks like the game will be released a few years too late.
That graphics looks so old now and the trailers usually show the best parts.

Story Teaser Trailer

"In an alternate 1500 A.D., Jesus escaped his crucifixion and, instead of forgiveness, sought violent vengeance on all the non-believers. Centuries later, in a dark and blood-soaked world, an army of zealot Inquisitors continue to enforce their so-called Holy Law. In The Inquisitor, players will take on the role of Mordimer Madderdin, servant of God and an Inquisitor anointed by the High Bishops of Hez Hezron. You will commence your journey in Koenigstein, a city plagued with sin and religious transgression, where it is your duty to investigate its corruption and crimes. Use strategic sleuthing to track down and interrogate suspects, piece together the evidence or even resort to brute force. Your judgement awaits. Will you show mercy, or will you enforce retribution in the name of the Holy Law?"
