It's not a "Christian game", its a game where the setting is a violent, fractured place and Christianity has a large in-universe footprint, influencing factions.
Iron Tower Studio games makes quite good RPGs.

Aight. I didn’t watch the video, to be fair.
An article I might have read but I’m all burnt out on Christianity doing all the evil shit in real life.
I wonder what demographic is seeking this specific game out as a form of escapism?

CRPG and SciFi Fans? And it’s not like Tolkien-esque fantasy and Warhammer and the likes aren’t heavily influenced by Christian believes and mythology.

First off, not all video games are escapism, just like not all film is camp. The genre of science fiction is only as good as the philosophical thought problems and potential ethical dilemmas it poses.
Once you get past thinking of Christianity as a uniquely negative force in society, and instead see it as another fiction on the pile of stories humans have invented, it's intellectually interesting to think about the political and psychological impact that all our various religions have had on the trajectory of our species, and could have as our technology advances.
Fantasy often depicts Inquisitors brutally persecuting sorcerers, which is historically accurate for Christianity 300-700 years ago. Why shouldn't SciFi attempt to explore the evil we see in Christianity today, but set in the distant future?

But Christianity is a negative force in life. Maybe ignoring that truth fills the escapism requirent that is so essential to enjoying a video game.

escapism requirent that is so essential to enjoying a video game.
Again, this is simply not true. It may be true for you, but does not universally apply to the entire art form.
