Yes, it is a w. As I mentioned, they are free to sell their products at a lower price in certain countries but they can’t tell someone from Italy that they can’t buy their product in Hungary. I honestly can’t understand someone who defends this practice.
So someone from California can’t buy products in Mississippi, that’s just fair - or it’s ok just because it’s via the internet?
Fuck geoblocking.
this is not the same thing.
regional pricing does not block people from buying the game.
regional pricing allows people in poorer countries to afford games.
I do not see a problem with companies offering discounts to people who would not otherwise be able to afford their product.
No that’s exactly the same thing. They can offer the game for a discounted price in some EU countries, nobody said they can’t. What they don’t can is tell other EU citizens that they are not able to buy the product in those EU countries. I don’t know why you can’t understand this simple fact.
