Nazi symbol in map. (Place were you get chest is in the shape of a swastika)
|
The symbol is common throughout the world and has a longer history of being not associated with the Nazis than with them. I think it's perfectly fine, though I imagine it will get changed - this is the internet and people love to complain about silly stuff like this.
And yes, the axis of orientation DOES matter. Even though it's a got an axis of symmetry, the room posted isn't the Swastika based on its angle of orientation alone. Or are we not allowed to have rooms the shapes of up-side-down croses? My Keystone Ideas: http://www.pathofexile.com/forum/view-thread/744282 Last edited by anubite#0701 on Nov 2, 2012, 8:24:42 PM

I don't even know what this guy is even trying to do here.. except for getting attention, which he has done successfully. threads like these with people complaining so they can feel better about themselves for doing the "right" thing should be deleted instantaneously.

For the sake of argument, let's say it is indeed a (intended or not intended) "Nazi symbol" or "Swastika" or whatever. So what? ^_^

" get what that your totally anal about a symbol? we get that! go to a dog breeding center they still use bitch for female dogs the meaning hasn't changed. gay still means happy. if you insist on taking something out of context anything can be seen as abhorrent. the swastika on an armband with some guy goosestepping is objectionable a swastika shaped room is not how about you GET THAT! |

Look it's Godwin's Law Thread.

If you're paying more attention to the shape of the map than you are to the large chest, ARPG is not the genre for you.

Well, not everyone in the West knows the origin of the symbol and when they see it they think "Nazi". And we've all seen how some people get up in arms about something innocuous being perceived as subliminal messages (think of the cover of "The Little Mermaid"). So if this is something that spawns on a regular basis, it might not be a bad idea to give GGG the heads-up so they can avoid some potential PR problems in the future.
