The issue of the sub price in Ukraine

[Dzian]

I really find it distasteful how the media has taken a world issue and warped it into a pseudo-attack ad on Square-Enix. And the worst part is that there are people with their hearts in the right place; but man... out of all the things the media picked to highlight the issues a country is facing.

Again, a video game subscription is the LEAST of their worries, how is this not clear to people?

I kinda agree with this as it is an incredibly narrow minded way of looking at things. and the impacts of the war are global. in Britain energy prices are likely to be almost 400% higher by the time 2023 hits.. an annual bill that was roughly £1,200 is forecast to be over £5,000 in january 2023.. so it's not just the ukraine whose financial situation is "not the best"

Gasoline prices as well... even basic foods and grain exports..

while i can empathize with ukraninas being in the centre of it. the impact is global and pointing the finger at Square-Enix is incredibly dumb.

I can't compare to UK but it's pretty bad in many countries in Europe. France, Sweden, Denmark etc.
My wallet cries when I have to fill up my car, and I made the poor decision to get a diesel-fueled CUV in 2020 when it was pretty cheap and low running cost. Now with the taxes and oil prices that we pay in Sweden, it's 0.5 EUR more expensive per liter compared to gasoline.

Thank god my lease ends next years so I can get a EV, but then again - the electricity prices is pretty f***d too.

Same in Finland. I paid 4cents for kwh and now it's 30 cents. Gasoline is/was most expensive in the EU for a long time. My car consumes 15liters / 100km. And I'm not earning that much, living in Finland after all. I'm not here complaining, just need to deal with it
