!gaming is a community for gaming noobs through gaming aficionados. Unlike !games, we don’t take ourselves quite as serious. Shitposts and memes are welcome.
Our Rules:
1. Keep it civil.
Attack the argument, not the person. No racism/sexism/bigotry. Good faith argumentation only.
2. No sexism, racism, homophobia, transphobia or any other flavor of bigotry.
I should not need to explain this one.
3. No bots, spam or self-promotion.
Only approved bots, which follow the guidelines for bots set by the instance, are allowed.
4. Try not to repost anything posted within the past month.
Beyond that, go for it. Not everyone is on every site all the time.

Wait what? I've not heard about this
They sent out an email with Nazi symbols: see https://lemmyverse.link/feddit.uk/post/50278677
I thought they did apologize for it?
The apology was "I'm sorry you such a stupid babies you don't know that SS rune is used by slavics actually (not true btw, who cares)"
That tone-deaf non-apology was only on reddit, by a new-on-the-job "community specialist". They did a (slightly) better apology an hour later on twitter and the GOG forum: https://www.gog.com/upload/forum/2026/06/c1cdf9fda39aaa5532ee375b38abb04376c7505d.png
Ok, that's at least better
Funny that they were so terrified of sending it in Germany because it would have broken Germany laws about Nazi signs, so they excluded Germany from the email while sending it everywhere else.
Yeah that's the part that turned it from an unfortunate accident to a deliberate act.
