      Steams unfair pricing

      Dead Island Four Pack: Steam US pays 100 euros, Steam EU pays 150 euros (+ Censoring by Valve) | Steam Unpowered

      Their prices are basically 1euro=1US dollar. So Europeans are basically paying 200 US dollars for Dead Island 4-pack. Fucking ridiculous.
      This guy also thinks they are violating EU law. So they should be looking at a law suit pretty soon I think.

      This has been the situation on steam for over 2 years now, I believe. Nothing will come of this.

      I don't have very high opinion of Steam anyways.
      Jujutsu is the gentle art. It's the art where a small man is going to prove to you, no matter how strong you are, no matter how mad you get, that you're going to have to accept defeat. That's what jujutsu is.

      Who does the pricing? Steam or the developers?
      Surrender your flesh. We demand it.

      I'm pretty sure it's steam. Coz you can buy the games at other places for a lot cheaper.

      I thought it was the devs that priced it and that's why indie games are so cheap.
