A God complex is a psychological aberration causing a being to believe themselves to be God or some other kind of deity in any way. It can also mean:
- Playing God, who doesn't have to genuinely have a God complex, those who just pretend they're God also count, but there have been recorded cases of people pretending to be God so other people will worship them for the God they supposedly are (see Demiurge).
- Self-aggrandizement, a big part of God complexes; believing yourself to be omnipotent, omniscient, infallible, sovereign, etc... (creator optional).
- God mode, whose name suggests this cheat gives you a God complex, because it supposedly makes you invincible instead of literally being something like Minecraft's Creative Mode.
- The Antichrist, who the Bible describes in many places as having a God complex, asking the Jews to worship him or die.
- Yahweh ben Yahweh, who obviously has enough of a God complex to literally write a self-insert called "The Holy Bible", whose plot is literally copypasted down to the small capitalized letters from the King James Bible. Of course it's revealed that he's just some hobo looking to start his own cult by claiming that the Bible was his own self-insert fanfic on "Real Life".
