[GOG] Cyberpunk 2077 30$ 28€ (CD Projekt)

They seem to be a bit slow with the whole ray-tracing thing.

I'm hoping they release something cheaper than what intel has done so far.

I've always used AMD due to a combination of low power needs and low prices.

Well, fair enough. I doubt anyone actually thinks that they're saints. They have fanatical fans, but so does every company. Most people just think that they're more consumer-friendly than most other companies, which this regional pricing deal supports as well.

CD Projekt isn't exactly CD Projekt Red either, so you can have different opinions on them.

I can see why you hold these beliefs though. I'm not a huge fan of GOG's customer support either.

No no no! The question was it it more moral to use a VPN to buy a game for less then it's intended price then it is to pirate it?

That wasn't the case before. AFAIK the EU regulations once said 13, but now 16 for account creations online. SG simply changed the age limit from 13 to 16 at some point.

THE KGB WAITS FOR NO ONE!!!

question is why i have to pay 250 unit of my currency while others do that with 60 unit of theirs plus having advantage of purchasing power.

Well, first of all currencies aren't of equal value. 10€ is £8.94 as of writing this. So when they pay those exact amounts, the numerical value of the purchase cost will remain the same. At the same time, I'm not sure how you came to the conclusion that Russia has even close to as much purchasing power as, say, a person from the Nordic countries, from the United Kingdom or Ireland or Germany or some other Western European country.

If i'm going to pay 60 usd or sth, then why there is a region lock?

Because of exactly that... To set regional prices. That's why region locks exist. That way you can't just buy, let's say, 500 copies of Cyberpunk for 28€ (14000€ in total) and then resell them for 45€ (22500€ in total for a clean profit of 8500€) since everyone will still technically get a discount while the buyer also resells them at a higher cost.

Point is their approach was different before, i was be able to buy whole witcher series with "pretty suitable" prices. Now they started to walk the same way as others, thats why most of us and my fellow above disappointed. But i'd not have high expectations or get bothered that much of their actions. They re doing a business at the end, they re not our friends or sth so, they dont have to watch our back.

It's hard to respond or even understand the context to what you're saying since it's so vague. Where are you from? Where'd you buy them? What prices were those games when you bought them? How expensive were they in other countries compared to you? How's the increase actually impacted you due to inflation, etc.

I'm all against to piracy, and will buy it ultimately, probably when there is a good sale. But that doesnt mean i cant criticize nonsense pricing or nonsense arguments advocating this cause.

Fact is that businesses have to make money. Fact also is that profit will lead companies. But it's also a fact that some countries have way lower purchasing power, like in Russia. I think they should extend their low price to some of the Central American countries too, though for other countries, Ukraine, India, Uruguay and some other countries already get smaller prices. They're not as low as they could be, but they'll never go for as low as possible since they need to recoup the costs of this monolith of a production.

All in all, as I said, if you think you deserve the game at a lower price, then go for it. I can't stop you, but I won't condone it either. The game comes out in 10 months. If you're so desperate that you'll use a VPN service just to preorder it, then I think your priorities aren't with the price. You can't express that you can't pay the actual price while also buying products 10 months in advance without knowing if they'll even be decent.

I appreciate your points regardless. The dreamer part of me supports you, but the more realist part of me isn't too convinced.
