For fuck's sake, you might call it "inappropriate" given the context but there's nothing insulting about this. Jesus.
YIIK: A Postmodern RPG contains an insulting homage to Satoru Iwata

While I get where you're coming from, these people made a game and probably made someone happy. Not sure there's a more thematically fitting tribute to the big man.
I'm beginning to think more and more when I see ridiculous stuff like this online that it is some kind of government chaos-agent trying, in some small way, to sow discord and create a culture war. Are there real people legitimately this upset over such minuscule things? With everything that's been going on in the world and the more we learn of governments attempting to do stuff like this, I just don't know what to think anymore. God, the real world is becoming some kind of Cyber-Punk nightmare, and not even in a cool way.
i dont think its insulting and maybe they wanted to pay homeage to him, as well all do, but maybe the concept is just a little odd
imagine being upset about this.... it's just a loving homage to a man who inspired them. How thin does your skin have to be?
Im gonna join the choir here and say it is not insulting. Lame and out of place? Yes. Insulting? Nope.
I get the joke but in all fairness the vast majority here are saying there's nothing to be insulted about.
its more likely someone trying to immortalize someone they respect.
And how they are actually not taken care of very well in a lot of cases.
I don't see how this is a slight against Iwata at all, maybe a tad weird and unnecessary but certainly nothing malicious here.
kinda insulting to be honestDon't forget that one time Square Enix insulted the entire zelda legacy
just disgusting
Yeah, I am with you. What the fuck @ 'the damage has already been done'. What an odd reaction.
Hey OP could you list up the other things that insulted you today? I need a barometer to reference so I can tiptoe around any of your other threads in the future.
I can't tell the difference between shitposting yo stir controversy and legit just awkward people who get offended by the most random shit.
It's an Easter egg. It's fine.

Yeah, definitely an overreaction here. It's not offensive or anything, just a low effort way to go about it. The only thing I find "wrong" with it is that the gravestone isn't exactly a proper tribute since the game's apparently set in the 90's, yet it's marked for Iwata's death in 2015 2 decades later. Would have been more proper for the guy to be alive in-game somehow.
Yeah...a bit awkwardly placed, perhaps, but the developers meant no harm with this.
For those saying "bet OP has fled", they did post this message on page two, but yeah, at this point, they may as well flee (lest they return?...). Pretty big thread backfire.
Oh, God. I'm going to be the "No Fun Allowed" person with this, but the sheer number of "yiik"es jokes I've seen are making my eye twitch.
