GOG previously said they planned to look closer at Linux, and that it was the next major frontier - and they're now working towards GOG Galaxy on Linux.
Nah, they use the SS and two symbols that together look like the black sun. Even in their excuse that is not actually the SS but some pagan symbol why put two of them? + the sun ones. All their explanations sound like excuses. They messed up big time with either AI or someone who shouldn’t be working with them and every QA was not paying attention. A simple “we fucked up big sorry” was better.
Kolovrat is one thing, ss runes were unmistakable and the explanation “that’s our ancestry” made it worse since they’ve used greek symbols instead of the rune, and 2 of them together. Even developers said they had no explanation for that.
That was a nazi dog whistle and gog didn’t even try to distance themselves from nazis, not even saying “nazi bad” after the whole thing.
Oh I think that is very likely but it’s odd that this is not what GOG said but the game dev. They don’t want to be associated with using AI? They think this sound like an excuse? To me the other explanations sound more like an excuse than this.
They probably posted it from a PC. This only manifested on mobile devices for them, and they didn’t check them before sending, is my understanding.
Sometimes people make mistakes, dude, Jesus. Chill. They owned up to their mistake.

The symbols used can be explained by reading this, by the developers of the game:

It’s a “kolovrat” and it looks like that.
To me this is just an honest and naive mistake. That turned out very bad in the end, but nonetheless.
