The Gods grew fearful and jealous of the revolutionary and communistic nature of humanity and so cursed them to a never-ending cycle involving zombies and a glorified tournament arc where the victor sacrifices the souls of countless beings they've slain to sustain a physical but continuously diminishing ball of fire that somehow also metaphysically sustains the power of said gods

Humans are tricked into participating in this eternal Ponzi scheme through massive social engineering and religious propaganda that extols humans to reject their sinful nature and sacrifice themselves to save the world on behalf of the gods

I'm not kidding by the way, this is the meta of the series' plot

Edit: I'm in a conversation about Kojima directing an Fzero game and got confused. Keeping it in

Look, I knew 2004 segw took over f zerosjd it's story for a game and it sounds pretty sonic and the never ending tournament thing sounds like a death race is plausible here.
