Last time i checked it it's still at Rp.790.000 now it's dropped to Rp.249.999, is this a price bug or the devs just being generous with regional pricing ?

It seems the latter, because price dropped for some other countries too, check https://steamdb.info/app/1097840/

It's interesting it's GPU requisites on NVIDIA cards.

Requisites Windows 10 Windows 7
Minimum NVIDIA GeForce GTX 760 NVIDIA GeForce GTX 1050
Recommended NVIDIA GeForce GTX 970 NVIDIA GeForce GTX 1660ti

As I have a toaster PC, I don't follow all the new games and it's requisites, so, this is new for me.

Welp, it's published by a microsoft division so no wonder they're gonna push for win10 optimisation over win7.

It's either a mistake or a lie, because there's no such thing as "win10 optimisation over win7", as any software would work the same on any windows if you don't add specific code to make it run worse on specific versions. If that's the case then it's also illegal.

What about the different versions of direct x? That can have an impact on hardware, and because it's a closed box only they know for sure what goes on inside. I'm not saying that it's a real thing, I'm just saying that they could get away with it if they really wanted to.

Yay, 70 EUR for Chest-High Wall Hugging Simulator Over Brown Backdrops 2019!

Although this is funnier, I wonder if anyone can spot the odd one out:

  • Argentinian average wage: 750 USD, game cost : 51.74 USD (~7%)
  • Saudi average wage: 4500 USD, game cost: 23.98 USD (~0.5%)
  • Viet Nam average wage: 150 USD, game cost: 20.66 USD (~14%)
  • Indonesian average wage: 190 USD, game cost: 17.53 USD (~9%)
  • Indian average wage: 260 USD, game cost: 18.06 USD (~7%)
  • Russian average wage: 700 USD, game cost: 16.26 USD (~2%)
  • Turkey average wage: 260 USD, game cost: 15.79 USD (~6%)

care to compare it to east European / Balkan state average salaries?:-)

Argentinian average wage actually surprised me, they usually get the cheapest game prices while that average salary nearly the same as in some east-EU/Balkan country and they are in the same pricing region as Germany/France, etc.

70EUR is crazy, luckily I not really interested in this game. + probably DLCs coming.

It is ranging from 380 USD (Moldova) to 1900 USD (Slovenia). Difficult to put it anywhere. The average average is a little above the Russian Federation, around 800-ish USD. Romania and Ukraine as the most populous countries are holding it back quite a lot.
But yes, we get the game for almost 78 USD in most of the region.

Right now it is the oil-rich MIddle-Eastern countries getting the best price in terms of salary percentage. Before that, nobody could beat Russia in Steam cheapness, but now Kuwait, the Saudis and such are way, waaaaaaaaaaaaaaay ahead.

Who told you, that average wage in Russia is 700 USD? Don't trust this source. It's something like 400-500 USD, maybe less.

A ridiculous amount of texture files, mostly uncompressed. For some reason, they really made separate textures for almost anything, even if they are mostly indistinguishable brown textures the player never sees because the chest-high wall they are glued to takes up most of the screen.

What's the difference between Gears of War and Gears? What does this game even looking for on Steam?

Something to do with wanting to expand the franshise, while also being clear which one is the main title.
It does look weird that Coalition has both GoW4 and Gears...not confusing at all :l

Steam price for my country right now (Philippines) is ₱1219.95 (23.36 USD), down from ₱2775.00 (around 53 USD). Weirdly, Microsoft store for Philippines still uses the old ₱2775.00 price. Is this Steam regional pricing, then? For comparison, Age of Empires Definitive Edition (I and II) uses the same price for both storefronts.

They suddenly remembered that some regions won't afford the game for $60 XD. Better late then never, glares at Bethesda

To be fair, Bethesda games usually end up 80% off years later. If you aren't rich, you gotta wait that's all.

SOME companies, like Paradox, have a ton of dlcs that are never more than 50% off ever. Now THAT's infuriating.
