The “Bro visited his friend” meme template. In panel one, a character says “hi GOG any new deals tod-” and another character, labeled with the GOG.com logo, replies with the screenshot of a mail header titled “Slavic adventures 𖥞 ꥟ ϟϟ”. In the second panel, the first character looks at the second one with a worried look on their face.

    So I got the mail from GoG too and decided to finally see what “slavic” means.

    The Slavs or Slavic people are groups of people who speak Slavic languages. Slavs are geographically distributed throughout the northern parts of Eurasia; they predominantly inhabit Central Europe, Eastern Europe, Southeastern Europe, and Northern Asia, though there is a large Slavic minority scattered across the Baltic states and Central Asia, and a substantial Slavic diaspora in the Americas, Western Europe, and Northern Europ…

    IDK maybe I have been desensitised to more subtle topics after enduring more threatening problems all these years, but this seems just another term similar to “Gothic”, “Nordic” and the likes. What’s the problem over here?

    And while “The End of the Sun” made me at least read through the page thanks to the ‘Tux’ symbol under its name, I won’t have the time for another Skyrim, so skipping this.

      “Slavic” is not the issue here, it’s the symbols at the end of the subject line. See the rest of the comments.
