guys im sorry if im being dumb but, why the game is more expensive on gog than steam?

[Ayaguna]

on steam its 50BRL while on gog is over double this price, 167BRL... is there something going on that im missing? is this a error, or gog includes more content or something?

It's the same price in US dollars so this seems like an error. Not sure if you should contact GOG or perhaps submit a report on Factorio's forums

In my currency (EUR) it's 25.19 at gog.com and 25 here at Steam.
Just subscribed (EDIT: to this thread) for that reason. Im curious now :)

If I remember correctly, GOG had to get rid of regional pricing for cheaper regions for factorio (not sure for other games) because people were able to buy it for extra cheap and sell the key that allows you to get it on the dev's website as well.
Without DRMs to prevent those cheap keys from working in all regions it meant that people could make money from buying the game on GOG.

Yes, it's regionnal pricing that makes games in brazil cheaper by about 60 to 70% compared to northern america and europe.

i understand i always forget games are cheaper here because it feels more expensive lol when i traveled to another country even if it was "more expensive" it was much easier/less work needed to get things.

but thanks, its just a regional pricing issue then, glad steam still have it.
