Defunct Games reviews Death of a Wish by melessthanthree, available now on Switch and PC.
Hack and slash your way through the nightmarish world of Neo-Sanctum in Death of a Wish, the action-packed follow-up to Lucah: Born of a Dream. Using harsh and almost violent scratches to draw the details, this is an emotional journey that has a lot to say about religion, trauma and what it takes to heal. It’s also an intense action game that may look like a chaotic mess at times, but makes perfect sense and is extremely easy to get into. Harsh and unflinching, Death of a Wish is not only one of the year’s best games, but also an experience that will stick with you for a long time to come.

Also, for the question: Legacy of Kain: Soul Reaver. One of the first big and dramatically voiced western action games whose story really TRIED that I can recall. FF6 is also a big formative experience, but I feel like Soul Reaver 2 fit the bill of this particular video better.
As a kid/preteen, I'd never seen a game challenge ideas of religion, identity and social structure in a way that made me really reflect on myself and my surroundings in such a way, as I was a bit too young to "get" the subtext of FFVII, which I played prior
