35$ for Poland?

[Sorith]

35$ for Poland? Why are we placed 2nd on the price list in terms of how much we pay, with only Switzerland above us? There's absolutly no way we earn similar amount of money compared to Switzerland. Please do something amount the price adjustment.

I hope this email finds you well. I am writing to bring attention to the current pricing of Steam games in Poland. As you may be aware, the exchange rate between the US Dollar (USD) and the Polish Zloty (PLN) has significantly impacted the affordability of games for Polish players. The historical exchange rate data shows that the USD to PLN rate has been unfavorable for Polish consumers. For instance, on January 1, 2024, the exchange rate reached its highest point at 4.6074 PLN per USD1. This outdated rate has made Polish prices some of the most expensive in Europe. While I understand that developers have control over their own pricing, I kindly request that Steam consider adjusting the regional prices for Poland. Given the economic circumstances and purchasing power parity in the country, a more favorable exchange rate would greatly benefit Polish gamers. I appreciate the efforts made by Steam to provide recommendations for pricing in different currencies. However, in the case of Poland, these recommendations do not accurately reflect the economic reality. I urge Steam to take into account the specific entertainment purchasing patterns and economic conditions in Poland when determining game prices. As a loyal Steam user, I believe that fair pricing is essential for a positive gaming experience. I hope that Steam will consider updating the suggested prices for Poland to align with the current economic situation. Thank you for your attention to this matter. I look forward to any adjustments that can make gaming more accessible for the Polish community."

Many sites already wrote about this issue when they've noticed amount of posts in this thread and amount of people voices here so we already achieved something right?

Currently the two things we can do is to do the above and second thing is to keep this thread alive and hopefully get noticed by Supergiant.

Ja bym do końca pociągnął temat i żądał przewrócenia porzedniego przelicznika 3,59zł za dolara. W każdym razie nadal nie wpłacę na steamie ani złotówki, póki ci będą nadal mieli w sugerowanych cenach te zawyżone w PLNach.

[Bazinga]

Ok, so there are two things left

1. Adjusting the price in epicgames as it's still 139zł instead of 117zł
2. Posting by devs news about price change to confirm that they acknowledge the problem

with that I'm happy from SG resolve, next thing is to adress the general Steam suggested pricing issue against Valve

Niektrórzy mogą kupić na epicgames

Walczyliśmy o zrównanie cen z europejskimi czyli do poziomu 120-125, cena została ustalona na 117zł więc tutaj odnieśli się do naszego przekazu

[Binori 🌳🐤🌳]

to jest klasyka, każde korpo tak robi, najpierw szybka podwyżka "bo wasza waluta się osłabiła" a potem latami albo nigdy nie ma już powrotu. Tak robił Blizzard i inni, Blizzard z tego co kojarzę podwyższał wielokrotnie ze względu na globalne zmiany kursów walut ale nigdy nie wracał do cen po tym jak dana waluta wróciła do poziomu sprzed podwyżki. Korposy zarabiają na takiej polityce krocie.

Wątpię żeby Steam się wyłamał z tego ale kto wie, w końcu Valve nie jest na giełdzie więc nie musi słuchać poleceń przeżartych przepiórkami narcyzów mających największe udziały. Jest nadzieja w Gabenie.

[Probabilistyk]

Good job team! Now we need to roll over through rest of games on STEAM...

[Kishi]

Jak dla mnie może się nie wyłamywać. Za prawie wszystkie gry które mnie interesują zapłacę w innych miejscach lub zrezygnuję w ogóle z płacenia za nie.

[Snake]

Thx DEVS for reduce Price

[Albioza]

Thank you dev team for adjusting price. I've bought Hades II instantly for adjusted price.

[NatashaKIM]

Buying the game right now! Thank you Supergiant for listening to the community and fixing the problem.

[Promiennooka]

Thanks devs, game buyed.

[seraf5]

The changed price is great news, I'm happy you listened to us and did it. However, would you consider changing the prices of your other games, Supergiant? The conversion factor is unfavorable towards Poland regarding ALL games on Steam, not only Hades II.
For example: The price of Transistor is 19,50€, which translates to ~84 zł. The current price for this game on Steam is 91,99 zł - almost 10 zł higher than it should be. What is more, the game is cheaper on Epic Games, Playstation Store and Nintendo eShop. The same applies to Bastion.
Could you consider changing the prices for all of your games, so that they are fair to us?

[Doskias]

Thx devs! Game buyed :)

[Greg_®]

Now it is time to change first Hades price.

Get a better job.
