Subscription

[Eli85]

Are there that many people really going through the trouble of using VPN for that? WoW has region adjusted pricing for their sub and I'm pretty sure they offer cheaper subs in Brazil. They're doing that to maximize their profit, and they probably know what they're doing being the highest populated MMO for a while now.

The only good reason I could see SE not following suit with Blizzard is that there isn't a big enough market in Brazil for FFXIV to "risk" lowering the fee.

Yes, there has been when other companies have done this in the past. Most internet users have a VPN already, since there is no reason not to have one, and every reason to have one. So, if you regularly pay for this game, and you can use your existing VPN to pay a fraction of the cost, why wouldn't you?

It's going to be debatable. I can see both VPN abuse and overpriced regional subs leading to lower profits. It comes down to numbers in the end. Whichever path leads to more profit is the path that should be taken here imo so I'm with you on that. Still can't ignore the fact that Steam and other games offer regional fees, what OP is requesting doesn't seem unreasonable to me.

(besides: I called you a troll earlier because you kept using snowflake and sugar coating accusation. If you had simply presented your argument like you have here, it would have sounded much more convincing and compelling)
