How can Valve not update their prices after 2022 crisis?

And thanks to @Tweety we have now direct proof that this is indeed VALVEs issue, not publishers.

Hmm, so dev admitted he didn't care to set the regional pricing themselves, so it's Valve's problem now?

This "direct proof" proves only, that dev is too lazy to set the prices.

Valve don't set the prices, the devs/publishers do. All Valve do is provide recommended pricing, which devs are welcome to ignore if they wish.

Palworld recently updated their Polish prices.

I think the complaint is valve hasn't updated their recommended pricing guide for the Polish currency since major economic changes have happened. Devs can't follow what isn't provided or kept up to date.

No, it's the dev issue. Dev literally told user in question, that they don't care.
