You think someone cares if they lose a steam account when they can make another in no time flat. All they care about is profit for themselves or a company they might be working for. GGG did what it had to and they should not bend or break. Sometimes the terrible few cause problems for the many.


You're over exaggerating the # of people buying new accounts with a likely ban on the way in order to save 50% on an early access game.

The vast majority of players simply buy it on their steam account respective to their region's pricing, and GGG is losing more money with their prohibitive pricing than before. It's also a F2P game supposedly, and we're talking about early access, they're not losing out on anything.


They're not. Or they wouldn't have done it in the first place. It should not change back.


They are, that's why money-hungry corporations use regional pricing on steam (because it makes them more money than it costs them). It's better to sell 1000 $15 copies than 100 $30 ones. Stop being a clown and fighting over something that has no effect on you whatsoever.
Well, when I heard about price increase in other regions - I threw away all my doubts and upgraded from $30 to $160 package immediately. So it's a positive event overall :tada: emoji (if only these forums had any)
They could lower a little price for Poland. Currently its 61$ for 60$ pack, better than at the start (iirc 65-70$), but still a litte correction would be nice.

btw. for some reason on steam its cheaper in euro than in usd. They need some math guy to setup the prices ;)
Please GGG make an official statement.

Regional pricing is just Communism with extra steps. You are not entitled to be given the fruits of someone else's labor for cheap just because you are poor.


You're a clown for saying that, and regional pricing makes money for developers by opening markets that would otherwise be inaccessible.


it opens the market for those who can use a VPN to get the same mtx for cheap which others paid alot of $ for.

eventually, what counts for ggg is dollars earned and there is no shame in having less popular mtx than others if you live in a poor country

Please bring back the regional pricing, it will be much appreciated, I always wanted to support this game through the supporter packs, the Path of Exile 2 packs with the regional pricing allowed me to spend on a higher tier pack with the lowered prices, but now I doubt if I can even get the $30 Early Access key, it doesn't seem as value for money for before, the fact that the game releases as F2P in about 6 months breaks my intent even more.

Please GGG look into this, this will benefit us both.

you're aware that everything available on any market is only worth the lowest price it is offered anywhere?

by offering a discount to your country they're offering the same discount to the world, their only way to prevent it is to

- control where all those people actually live
- find out if they bought the right price for their country
- ban those who bought the access pack too cheap

this not only pesters all those poe players from rich countries from playing poe2 it's also a very costly procedure and it only affects those who use shitty distribution plattforms like steam and consoleros where the companies can fullly control their customers and enforce all sorrts of shit on their customers.

standalone players are not affected at all.
