GGG is too p****y to say they made a mistake about regional pricing
|
2 days left and no announcement about stealth removal of regional pricing
I have never played POE but heard good things before. But this leaves a very bad taste. It shows how they treat their customers. Not just 1 country but dozens! So TIL GGG is the same level as EA, Blizzard and even some fucking gacha mobile game. You were once one of the truly free to play respectful game. Now you copying D4 trend of pay early access bullshit and dont even have the balls to say you made a mistake Last bumped on Dec 5, 2024, 6:57:58 PM

PoE is free to play in all regions as far as I know?

" Show me a free to play game with an early access paywall You know why they did this. Its so obvious lets not kid ourselves we arent mobile gamers |
|

They also stealth changed the FAQ conditions to the "480$ lifetime purchases" free key to being "480$ purchases until the release of Early Access packs" 2 days ago, after lots of people that were a few bucks short bought packs.
Dont believe me? Here is proof using the wayback machine. It has a snapshot of the FAQ two days ago and one from yesterday, and as of fact, right now. These changes feel dirty. Support is refusing to comment. Imgur link with proof |

I'm in europe, the price of a key has always been 30$ (27 euro) and that's how much I paid. I have no idea what regional prices and issues are people experiencing but if the lowest supporter pack was 15$ (I presume on steam) and then changed to 30$, it was a correction because, like I said, it has always been 30$. Get over it dude. You don't have to pay anything, see you in six months!

" Regional pricing exists to adjust the cost relative to local (converted) currency in order to avoid that people in poorer countries with a weaker currency (comparably) have to pay double or more. [3.26] Poor Man's Ward Loop: https://youtu.be/9zC-Q6a_MwY

What a valuable post, from such a valuable member of the community.
How can something you have never consumed leave a bad taste? You can wait for the early access to end in the expected 6 months then play for free. Or you can play PoE1 for free. But you don't and wont. You said it yourself, and you're just here to whinge. I'm struggling to come up with new goals to keep me playing this game.

You seem awfully upset over something you've never played before, I'm beyond furious about the regional pricing changes and how GGG handled it but your story reeks of just as much bs as GGG's conduct in the last few days.
