Steam payment HUGE price increase!

"The price increase for Russian and Brazilian gamers: I actually already know the cause of this as I know a russian who's playing the game in another discord. It's because in the countries where the price increase happened SE can no longer take money directly from those countries without heavy fees so they have to work through third party money transfers.
Brazil for a while shut down all money transfers out of the country last year for all but the biggest of companies from what I saw in the news... and it looks like Brazil is now deciding to tax the big companies for doing so." Apparently this is the reason for it.

Ok, lets assume so. Where is the post that they will do it? Why should the "come back compain" be so silent? Why ppl should buy [x2] FF's, staff and then see that they get nothing, just lose everything. Point is not in price, point is "we've done this in shadow. How do you even have notice that? You, pathetic losers" (c) SE
For real, it like half ass in fire lul.

I am not excusing them for the lack of communication, more so the reasoning behind the change.

This is just an outright disgusting thing to do. If you have any reasoning whatsoever, you tell the community. You appologise for it. You let them know what is going on and why. You don't sweep it under the carpet, totally ignore it, and just let it work itself out. Right after the release of an expansion too.

I can assure you, you will lose players for this. You have already lost a number. I have friends that have left because of this, and while I was not personally hit by the price increase, I was hit by the loss of friends that play the game. There is a lack of end game content in this game that gives reason to play each day, the reason I, and I'm sure many other people, play this game is for the social aspect of it. I will likely not be resubbing for this game, I like the game, but when you take away the fiends, there is no point for me.

I hope that other people that feel the same way will voice their opinion. This is not right, SE.
