156 | Frank G. Bosman and Archibald L.  H.  M. van Wieringen www.jrfm.eu 2021, 7/1, 145–171 We see Joseph attending Jerome’s sermons in his church, but also working feverishly in his room on a manuscript that is probably an earlier version of The Book of Joseph (fig. 10). Next, we see images of Joseph desperately browsing through the pages of a Bible, followed by him marching through the woods of Hope County in the company of a group of his followers. The next scene depicts Jerome’s daughter holding her hand on the cover of The Book of Joseph while she tries to copy the logo with her other hand (fig. 11). The trailer ends with Joseph coming to his senses only to see he has held the girl under water too long, causing her to drown: the baptism has gone terribly wrong. Two visually very distinct versions of The Book of Joseph are featured in the trailer. The second one, seen in the hands of Jerome’s daughter, appears to be the white version found scattered throughout the game world. The first one Fig. 9: Joseph holding a notebook with the symbol of Project at Eden’s Gate on it. Scene from The Baptism (00:01:00). Fig. 10: Joseph working on what appears to be The Book of Joseph.
