Steam payment HUGE price increase!

[Rikos]

Oh nice. I would've never bought the SB if I knew about the changes beforehand. But I guess that was the idea? Nice to feel ripped off.

Indeed, I don't know how they can simple decide to change less then 1 month the lauch of the new expansion and without warning about it. It feels wrong, whenever point you choose to see it.

so…is it possible abandon my current half year sub and take money back?

Greetings, everyone!

As you have pointed out, we recently made adjustments to how prices in Brazilian Real and Russian Rubles are calculated for Steam users. These changes were made to bring prices using these currencies in-line with the global pricing structure based on current exchange rates. In addition, these adjustments mean that prices now accurately reflect the pricing provided on our other official channels and currencies.

Thank you.
But this should have come with an annoucement, 15 or 30 days before happen. Please, make it in the right way.

As I see it, Square Enix should reverse the change, make an annoucement saying the day the change would happen and then proceed.

Greetings, everyone!

Oh, it is bad news.
Now I should spend monthly salary to pay half-year of a game.
It too for me.
It is a pity, a game was pleasant to me.

Thank you again for your understanding and patience while I worked to get this information for you. If people are finding additional pricing discrepancies outside of what was mentioned, please let me know, so they can be looked into.

Well thank you very much for the Stormblood scam, guess this is your way of doing buisness SE - sell adoon and after refund period is over increase sub cost.

Greetings, everyone!
I got information that could be provided to you.

This change will annihilate those playerbases.
I don't know how big they are, though. If losing those players is ok with Square Enix, so be it.

One question? Do you understand that this is practically a break of FFIV User Agreement from your side, and big fraud with selling expansion. In FFIV User Agreement you can see pargraph 4.1 that says FINAL FANTASY XIV Subscription Fee rates will be posted at http://sqex.to/ffxivfees_eu, and any changes to those rates will be posted with 30 days’ advance notice and notice will be provided to the Game community and by email to User’s registered email addresses. If you think that exchange steam rates it's another deal...sorry but no. Valve assumes no responsibility or liability for such third party content that's written in paragraph 5 Steam subscriber agreement http://store.steampowered.com/subscr...ent/english/#5 And if you want change exhange rate in steam you need posted 30 days advance notice. What you can say about this?

I would like to hear something about it from official support too.

I may be wrong about this, but I believe this would only apply to automatic payments and since Steam Wallet payments are user generated this would not generate any breach of ToS.
