I dislike the spammy GOG emails so much that I just threw them into my spam filter and mostly view the offers through Is There Any Deal. But I still look at my spam folder from time to time.

Today I got a GOG ad, complete with a colorful nuclear radiation emoji, saying "Start a new civilization in a post-apocalyptic world".

While there's an active war going on, with Russia hinting at possible use of nukes, and Russian troops having set off explosives next to an active nuclear plant the very same day.

With all that going just beyond the border, such a provocative title does wonders for my mood, thank you. Good job, guys. NOT.

Agreed. Was not in good taste.

Was it for Endzone? I don't think I got the radiation emoji, but it does it look cheerful and colorful despite the gas masks.

That's hilarious, for once I wish I was subscribed to their ads.

I got a pretty good additive discount for SimCity games and Blade Runner. It's not the worst junk mail to have if the games you want are on sale and you want a little more off.

EDIT: YES, CONSUME ME DOWNVOTE BOTS. LET THE HATE FLOW THROUGH YOUR VEINS. MWAHAHAHAHA!!

There will always be some tragedy going on in the world somewhere and if anyone were to not be in bad taste or provocative regarding any of them, it would require reading a giant newsfeed and having super-human mindreading powers to understand everyone else's ideas of time appropriate.

You do realize how ridiculous you sound?

So they should stop advertising Fallout 1, 2,.3 and NV, too?

GOG is only allowed to advertise games that fit your mood? You want them to remove war games from sale while there's a war on, too? Are they allowed to come back when there isn't a war? Better get rid of all violent games, just to be safe. We wouldn't want anyone going nuts and starting a war because of videogame violence. Would they be allowed to advertise humorous games when you aren't feeling cheerful? Are you going to ask them to stop advertising horror games if one of your relatives or friends dies?

Give me a break. Please collect your REEEward.
