    It looks different on different platform. It's this symbol btw: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Koppa?useskin=vector (and the others are Wheel of the year and a sunburst symbol)

    But r/gog banned anyone pointing this out, and GOG forum banned anyone talking about it because it's "politics" (but they host pride month sales)..

    GOG really is doing a bad job with this. I swear are there any rational people working at any of these companies anymore?

    ..nope

    Even most indies have gone to shit now. It's either IdPol or idle/incremental or tower defense or rogue-Lite or pron VN's. At least on the yarr sites I happen to occasionally stumble across.

    I went to go see Toy Story 5 with my family
    . One trailer had a "realistic depiction of a panic attack" in it. I hate those. I think it's because it normalizes them.

  • @ Arnox:
    Ehhhhhh, I would say panic attacks have been in the movies since the 90s and also, with PTSD, they absolutely can be legitimate.

  • @ Arnox:
    Weirdly, I think Iron Man 3 had the best portrayal of them.
    Link
  • @ Houseman:
    In the 90s the examples were probably from things like war movies, which I can understand. Tinnitus, people dying all around you, stuff like that. Legitimately dire situations. But they don't do the whole "okay, calm down, name 5 things you can see, 4 things you can touch, 3 things you can hear..." etc. Kids will probably be faking panic attacks for attention because their preteen cartoon characters are having them.

  • @ Houseman:
    I don't remember Iron Man 3

  • @ Arnox:
    No, in the 90s, you'd have panic attacks from ditzy blondes as well as soldiers. Ultimately, I wouldn't take it too seriously.
    Link
  • @ Arnox:
    Oh also, I thought I thought of a better example than Iron Man 3, but this is more a PTSD flashback than an actual panic attack. And that would be Revy from Black Lagoon in Roberta's Blood Trail.

    Yeah, that is one perk and issue with the chatbox. It encourages discussion but it takes focus away from the forums. I say, if you would like to discuss anything we talked about here, make a thread and we can all talk further about it.

    Can't recall anything off the top of my head right now but I'm sure there's a movie out there with this that I'm not thinking of.

    I'm picturing some uptight businessman being forced to go to dinner with his wife and her friends, and then stumbling to the bathroom, covered in sweat and hyperventilating

    I remember she has a meltdown on the fact her boyfriend at the time dumped her for not being a good match for his political career or something, but that was not a panic attack. Must be another movie.
