Steam has released a brand new pricing recommendation.
Our suggested price has increased by 21% compared to before.
This means that the game we could buy for 100 yuan may now cost 121 yuan to buy.
Of course, this price increase does not affect us, and will only lead players in E Baoling for free games.
The core problem is -
5 Turkey, Argentina zone price surges
originally 1000 Argentina peso (about RMB 47.26) game, but now it may cost 4800 peso...
that can be bought at 229 yuan.
At the same time, the recommended prices in the Türkiye region also ushered in a surge of 454%.
All the netizens who saw this news were blown up.
At this moment, some mobile phone friends may ask:
, what does it have to do with our price increase in other countries and regions?
Cough cough, I don’t know this~
After all, compared to our high pricing, Argentina, which is far away from the ocean, has become a "land of gentleness" for many players because of its "good quality and low price" and "economic affordability".
In short.
There are many players who, in order to buy games cheaper, set up their Steam account in low-price areas such as Argentina and Türkiye to experience a "dimensionality reduction strike".
But it's okay if you want to say some. The problem with
is that players around the world have learned this wave of tricks.
As a result, Argentina, which originally had a population of more than 45 million, often had game sales of over 100 million, and active users had 100 million or 200 million...
is truly outrageous. Its mother opened the door for it, which was outrageous.
Although before, Steam has also tracked accounts that often change regions and has also made certain regional price adjustments.
But none of them are as cruel and thorough as they are today...
is just that it is cheaper and more affordable than if it cannot be sold in the future.
What Ji Ge is more worried about is that those native Turkish and Argentine players may be the biggest "victims".
