I know of El Cid because of my real life name.
I don't think that games make good mediums for religious views, or philosophies with some exceptions. They have the potential to be better mediums for it than movies because of length, but few rarely focus on the real aspect of philosophies preferring to supplant them with their own theocratic systems and views.
Although I got to confess that I learned more religion from Kreia that I did from the Bible, just a fact not trying to incite anyone. Just the idea of anthropomorphize the Force and bring Determinism, Free Will and God into the game's themes makes it stand out. It worked very well there because of the story implementing and using those themes at it's core instead of just making background to "flesh out" the universe.
