Regional Pricing For Turkey

40 dollar equals 420tl and trust me its really expensive
i bought first blood pack and some more coins to get essential stuff because i spend alot on video games
also its not only essential stuff like stash tabs you know? mtx look sick af and free stuff look like trash.
i mean i wouldnt argue that much if there were no regional pricing in game but many nations have and we dont so...

Well, anyway, just in case - don't expect anyone from ggg to reply here, this forum despite being "official" doesn't get much attention from the team, if any.
Your best bet would be either to ask support directly via e-mail, or create a post on poe subreddit and see if it gets any attention, or both. And even if what you are asking for will be done, it'll most likely take ages.

yeah, ggg does "mtx sales" instead of regional pricing, so countries with a bad exchange rate to the dollar can have a shot at expensive stuff if they passionately wait.

as a company, identifying your customers' location comes at a price. if you open a local branch or office in that country for this purpose, you fall under the jurisdiction of that country cause that office can be sued.

if they have a customer database which registers their supporters by country they also might be vulnerable to claims of their own government to treat people from certain countries differently.

sp far, they imho don't care which country you come from as they let xsolla handle all the customer payments and they themselves don't know any real names of people nor their credit card numbers or country.

Incorrect. It doesn't get responses from the dev team, and for very good reason. Any response would immediately be attacked by the toxic part of this community, and taken as promises by a lot of the rest.
That is why when an indie game gets 'big', the devs usually withdraw from their forums and leave it to the forum team.

They will however read it... a lot... I've never known a game developer that wasn't obsessively following their own official forum, and I doubt GGG developers are different.

Regional pricing is difficult (and cumbersome) to implement. You also can't make it significant since then people will immediately use a proxy in the 'cheap' country to get their stuff for a much lower price than they pay in their home country. Policing that would be expensive.

Well, unless you somehow possess some kind of "insider knowledge" on the matter, your guess is as good as mine. As for OP - imho it hardly matters to him whether gggsomebody will silently read it or nobody will, as long as there's no response.

Umm, and anyway, the decision to make regional discounts depends on the amount of people intereated, that's why i suggested reddit where he can at least get some upvotes. Here its just a single post of a single user, 99% that nobody will make decisions based solely on that.

thank you guys,emailing ggg directly then
