Localize Your Price

[Albie There]

It's too expensive for an EA title, specially for LATAM.

I have been playing the shareware version and have your game wishlisted, but even during discount season it was expensive.

It's not localized, its waaaay above so many other better, complete games... I checked the steam DB price history for this game, the discount as I said was very very tiny.

I feel $30 USD is more than fair. I have about 50 hours of playtime and am still going strong. Not sure about the price in other countries. To be fair it's not a traditional Early Access game. It's more of an episodic release. The content available is already finished and balanced.

Price Vs. Amount of hours is not how you judge it, IMO

There are lots of devs who shoot themselves in the foot by not lowering the price by US$10 for countries where USD is too high x local currency, the amount of money they lose because of that is insane because people will just grab the free version instead.

Still too expensive, dollar is above 6 to 1 here

I honestly don't understand what Albie is talking about. Pricing localization? In what way? Prices are generally set by an international value. For instance this game would be $30 USD in the U.S. and roughly 1000 MXN in Mexico. Same values. Different currencies.

$30 is worth it for all the gameplay on offer here. Conversion rate is conversion rate.

[Albie There]

Not worth to me, actually not worth to ANY Game, too expensive, in my currency, for any game. Not something a I am willing to pay ATM.

Just out of curiosity, could you give us some numbers?
How much is TKA in your currency?
As a comparison, how much is Space Marine 2 (base edition) in your currency.

Obviously TKA should be below SM2, but what are the numbers?

[Albie There]

TKA - R$90

SM2 - R$199

[KingOfFools]

I don't know all the circumstances, but R$90 is 4,64 Euros. I would say it's a hell of an adjustment. And in context of the price of SM2 the price for TKA seems very sensible.

Are you crazy? R$90 is 15 euro

Brazilian Real

[KingOfFools]

ok, at 1 EUR = 6,2920 BRL the game costs about 15 €.

According to my calculations this makes TKA cost roughly 3% of the average monthly net salary in Brazil.
Compared to Germany, where TKA costs roughly 1% of the average monthly net salary.

I am totally fine with the price. New Content is coming. So why bother? Buy it now?
Imagine the game is comeplete and is goin to be awesome. And then you have to pay 60.
Maybe you regret it in the end. Maybe
