Steam payment HUGE price increase!

Ppl will calm down on their own when their subs run out, but se's reputation will have a bad stain by then

Guess what? SE doesn't give a rat's behind about their reputation. Proof? Last second (after the game has been released to the press) microtranscation addition and deliberately cutting the game in parts in hopes of making a sequel (sequels?) with Deus Ex MD and after people get angry and vote with their money, they put the whole series on hold. Again, basically forced DLC plans for FFXV (anyone who played the game knows that it has been added in such obvious story points that it gets uncomfortable). So doing this with FFXIV to russian and brazilian players is just an icing on the cake

Oh and it's not the first time they pulled this stunt off either. Back when Heavensward was released RU Steam CE version used to cost like 18-19 EU. Shortly after putting the game on preorder SE "adjusted" the price to be equal to that of other regions. So regional subscription rates for Russia and Brazil existed on purpose for at least as long as 2 years
