The clip features a player donned in the game’s Archdeacon armor, facing off against the formidable Pontiff Sulyvahn, while the presenter adds her comedic spin. “If we were to imagine a conclave with a video game aesthetic, it could be this battle for the throne of St. Peter,” she jokes.
This amusing representation has sparked conversations online about the unique intersection of gaming and current events, showing that the media can have fun while reporting serious subjects. Cuatro may not be the most conventional news channel, but their approach clearly resonates with audiences who appreciate a lighter take on current affairs.
