It's like... reverse regional pricing... making things even MORE expensive in some places whose currency is comparatively weaker to the USD than if you simply didn't have regional pricing at all.

I'd very strongly recommend taking a look at your numbers again.

At minimum, use Steam's suggested prices. They're not perfect, but I have a feeling they're gonna be better than whatever you're doing now.

funniest thing that they give "new" DLC for free if you buyed Deluxe Edition before from Nacon

so devs basically ripping off everyone who refused to give money to Nacon and waited when it return to devs hands

and they made it even more confusing by changing the deluxe version and Necronomicon version. Who even know what version they have now :lunar2020thinkingtiger:

Necronomicon Edition has been renamed to Deluxe Edition because it includes all the DLC, not just Worshippers of the Necronomicon. By tomorrow CET time every owner of the Deluxe should get the new DLC for free.

About the prices - the game was sold for the equivalent of $10-15 in some regions and we had to adjust that.

USD price hasn't changed.

It's something about regional pricing.

And again confusion. I have (what was formerly know as) the Necronomicon edition, store still have a "buy option(not the "In your library) on DeLuxe edition and it have more dlc's than the Necro edition had.
The author of this thread has indicated that this post answers the original topic.

Deluxe Edition isn't a fair comparison, since there's more stuff in it now. You have to compare individual things.

Base price of the main game in USD hasn't changed (40$ USD). Base price of Worshippers of the Necronomicon (only "big" DLC there was before things changed) is actually a bit cheaper now (15$ to 13$ USD).

Problem is that it's gone up for multiple non-USD places.

Yeah, I don't know what they're thinking... for many countries, it would be cheaper if there just wasn't any regional pricing at all and people just had to pay in USD... which is insane.

My point, though, is that the base price (assuming the base price is USD) of the game hasn't gone up.

Devs are just confused about regional pricing... hopefully they'll fix that.

There's a difference between "We're raising the price of the game!" and "Regional pricing is confusing and we don't know what we're doing."

It's a scam, this is all just a way for people that didn't actually work on the game to get some quick money.

You are so ignorant going around and spewing this false rhetoric. It's Frogwares' game, they're back. You know nothing and should be banned from speaking in discussions for this game after all the false accusations you've left.

Do you often do trollwork for Nacon? Do you get paid well?
