Oh wow, that GOG representative trying to justify it makes even worse:
spoiler
I want to briefly address the discussion as a GOG representative. The Sowilo rune is part of my cultural and historical heritage. As a Pole, I am fully aware of both its history and the sensitivities surrounding it. Its use in this promotion was intended solely as a reference to the sun, which is central to the game being promoted.
What was displayed in several devices as doppelrune is out of our control. ᛋ was displayed as ϟ on several devices. We should pay more attention to checking it on a different systems and devices. I also recognize that placing two such runes next to each other could create an unfortunate association with symbols used by the Nazi regime. This was noticed before distribution, and out of respect for local sensitivities, the material was not sent to the German community.
At the same time, I do not believe that symbols with a history spanning more than a thousand years should be defined solely by their misuse in the modern history. Allowing that would mean accepting that those who corrupted these symbols now own their meaning.
As a Pole, I have every reason to treat this history with seriousness and respect. Precisely because of that, I reject any suggestion that this promotion carried an extremist message. It did not. It was a reference to the historical symbol of the sun, nothing more.
That is some weapons-grade apologetic bs. Thanks for the heads-up OP
Yeah I honestly couldn’t find those, that’s why I was hoping you could share a link
Using these symbols would definitely not be ok. Is there any source on this? I’m not saying it’s not true, it just strikes me as weird that they would write “Slavic adventure” instead of the game’s actual title.
There’s no game titled “Slavic adventure” on GOG. Maybe OP is referring to The End of the Sun, which has runic characters in its title. OP implies the use of Black Sun and SS symbols, neither of which I was able to find in connection with the game.
Care to elaborate, OP?
And how deep is a soccer field?
Stop Killing Games could play neatly into this, fingers crossed.

Someone else has probably already done that for you.
