Steam payment HUGE price increase!

[SiegW]

Subscription price is 9gbp in the uk, this equals to 36brl.

This means that square haven't removed the regional pricing from all places, and they havent brought all currencies in line with the global pricing structure.

Thus the official explanation is suspicious as there are still places officially with a cheaper subscription

(Also this kills the "it wasn't intended the existance of the cheaper sub" and the "everybody should pay the same" arguments, since officially square enix is offering a cheaper sub for uk residents)

now we're sure that BRs and RUs some kind of unwanted players. :/

suspicious timing for this considering how the world is going

If the UK price gets adjusted without any warning I wonder what the response would be?

If that happens it is only fair that it must be in a forum post burried in a 70+ pages thread 2 days later

Quicker and they would warn 45 days before. That's how they see our countries, so let's not forget this and always remember every time we looking to buy a product from SE, this at least is within our power to do.

won't happen on as big of a margin, from what I've seen the UK currency price is far closer to the US currency price than the russians or brazilians were. The Russians and Brazilians were paying like 1/3 of the price other players were paying if you look at the exchange rates

Brazil entry sub was around 9usd, not 1/3 of the price, russian sub was around 5 usd

Also the difference between brazil standard and uk standard was around 3 brl, which would be a fair increase considering the country situation

Very nice SE (Y) could you explain why UK players are paying less? This is looking more like a purge.

But if is so close why don't they increased too ? I bet that is because they thought that russians and brazilians would stay silent because they are the minority.

I would really like an official explanation as to why only brazilian/russian prices were adjusted and UK players can still pay a different amount for their subscription. I've been doing my very best to keep my posts here polite and free of unfair accusations but this whole thing is only getting worse as time goes by. Please stop pretending we're invisible.
