You can probably gift nothing out of your region, at least that is the way it works for many regions (like CIS). Even if your price is more expensive than in the region you want to gift to.
Forget the marketing speech of Valve that says you can gift as before, unless in a few cases when your game is soooo much cheaper...

hopefully that's a matter of time before stuff bought in poland becomes tradable to the rest of EU ( ͡⊙ ͜ʖ ͡⊙)

Yeah, there should be either fallback currency or opt-out period. In addition to missing pricing, all my trading tools like csgo backpack or enhanced steam became unusable, as well as isthereanydeal. In my case problems simply outweigh slightly lower prices, so I'd be happy to keep paying in Euro for the time being.

Due to Poland being in EU, you can gift games to anyone in EU, no matter the price difference. Which is why for many AAA games Poland - country with around 400 euro minimal wage - already became most expensive country on Steam.
I guess those publishers really love g2a, not even bothering to compete with them.

Yeah, I don't like the changes that much either. Most games use the default not-so-great conversion of 1 usd -> 3,6 zł, which is a bit cheaper than previous 1 usd -> 1 eur, but not much (15%). Only a few devs/publishers bothered to set custom prices, out of which some are higher (e.g. DOOM set to 129,99 instead of 107,99 as per valve conversion) and a handful are cheaper. From my wishlist: Factorio 20 eur -> 50 pln, Thea 19,99 eur -> 49,99 pln and Witcher 3 GOTY 49,99 eur -> 149,99 pln (finally the same price as on gog). Also a good price, but possibly a glitch: Blitzkrieg 3 29,99 eur -> 49,90 pln. All in all, nothing much changed, 15% cheaper than EU is laughable considering the salaries are 3-4x lower.

So, Polish Zloty arrived on Steam. Looks like everybody but me rejoys. Quite a lot of games are cheaper. Which brings a question, how much tradeability is compromised? Can I gift a game that costs 20 EUR if I bought it for equivalent of 19.95 EUR?
Also, 1/3 of my wishlist is currently unavailable to me because publishers don't give a damn. I wish they let us opt-out at least for some period.
