Treat recruits as god
This game, where god is an entry-level position, lets funny people adore recruits until they're hooked, then drop them for the next batch of gods. This allows the full experience of loving someone as divine, while limiting it to a short time.

The role-reversal provides a funny context. Our exaggerated emotions are funny. Our fickleness is funny. The obvious recruiting scam is exaggerated and funny.

The important part is the license to love, to indulge those heady and hearty emotions.
