Steam's new pricing policy for Latin America and the MENA region came in yesterday.
boring real news
They say the peso and lira were too unstable and prices were being changed too often, so Valve just told devs to start setting prices in USD at "regionally appropriate" rates. I am not aware of Gaben's opinions on Argentinian politics, thankfully
Gamers are competative, hard core, by nature. We love a challange. The worst thing you did in all of this was to challange us. You're not special, you're not original, you're not the first; this is just another boss fight.
I'm pretty sure I already looked into this and I can't, but I wonder if I can make Kor free in just Argentina. I suppose it would be too easy to exploit with a VPN or whatever.
Gabe’s a libertarian, but he also probably realizes that libertarianism is a stupid government ideology and only benefits the individual and wants to take advantage before the eventual downfall
this resolves a major internal conflict for me. i always bought games to support the developers and always drm free, from gog or humblebundle or itch.io. the thing is games were a lot cheaper on steam, so i always had a second thought to buy them on steam, to save some money. i never did but thanks to this decision i will never even consider that anymore.
