POE 2 Key Regional Pricing on steam change
" Ridiculous how instant the response was on the fextralife issue and here we are 10 days later. What a slap in the face. |
|
I wonder if this can be grounds for a Class Action?
Changing Prices without explanation is illegal to where I Live and shafting us who are unfortunately enough to live on a 3rd world country is totally criminal. |

If you guys want GGG to respond, share the issue to the Asmongolds subreddit, maybe it will blow up.

" Class Action Lawsuit for a company changing price? Guess every company who has ever changed their price on an item is doomed. No more sales ever I guess. I would hate to pay full price for something and then someone else a day later get it for cheaper because it was on sale. Lets be honest they probably got way more demand then they thought they were going to get for this game and the easiest way to limit the player base (which is probably already going to be 3-4 times more then they are use it) is raise the price. It is basic econ 101. Supply and Demand |

" There's no lawsuit here. There's also no issue of supply and demand. They provide regional pricing here and on steam for some countries, and decided to cancel it for others. It's a scummy thing to do, and they should at least address the community over it. |
|
" Ok say GGG right now makes an announcement on Regional Pricing. No matter what they say it will be bad for them. If they say it was a mistake people are still going to complain that some got it and others didn't. No matter what they say the forums will be on fire from their response and it will be the headline of a bunch of videos from everyone until launch. |

" You didnt read my statement clearly and just fixated on the Class Action part. I want them to explain themselves why they just changed it for 3rd world countries and there are some 1st and 2nd world countries that have it cheaper than us on SEA nations. Why is that? I don't care if it will make it look bad on them. The problem here is that there is no transparency nor any context as to what happened. Supply and Demand arguement is BS because this is a Digital thingy its all just lines of code, there's no such thing as "Limited" on anything Digital. Additionally, If they are adamant to this change, they should block all those who get it Cheap from playing and ask them to pay up the difference as this is not fair for all of us. A lot of us were just waiting for our salaries to come thru so we can buy it. Also in my Country (Philippines), we earn on average 11 USD PER DAY, not PER HOUR. Truely, Western people and those with Money Priviledges don't understand this as a problem. Last edited by Zhafkiel#3467 on Dec 3, 2024, 3:57:45 AM

" Yeah it's scummy to charge different prices for the same product to different people... maybe even racist, if I dare say. Maybe when they add your regional pricing, they can lower my price too. Maybe we can all pay $10. Or maybe I can pay $20 and you can pay $5. No... they're going to keep my price the same and only others get the discount. By the way there is supply and demand, because energy is a limited resource. So are servers and bandwidth. There is no reason to give it to you when you didn't pay what I did for it. In fact when I see this discriminatory pricing, I don't ever buy from the company again, or just get the game some other way. I may yet get a supporter pack for PoE2, if they do not bring back discriminatory pricing. |

" You sound unhinged, it's time to take a break. Some people make $5000 a month and others make $300, regional pricing exists to open the market to those people. It's available for some regions, but was removed for others. This post shows that players see this as GGG spitting in their faces. |

Bump. 15k views and GGG silence.
