Adaptor-Face Posted October 8, 2014 Share Posted October 8, 2014 (edited) Im not sure how many players got this but me as a player in Norway, the currency got changed to NOK (my national currency). This INCREASED the cost of my games, not by a small amount either, a 50 Dollar (USD) game costs OVER 60 Dollars for me. that is 1 pack of DLC right there, because i have to use my countries currency i was already paying 5 euro over the price to begin with So here is the warning: CHECK THE PRICE OF THE GAMES YOU BUY (Platinum purchases is unaffected) I have already complained about this to steam support Edited October 8, 2014 by Adaptor-Face Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Somedude1000 Posted October 8, 2014 Share Posted October 8, 2014 (edited) Its not really the currency change thats the problem, its ht uber tax we pay for buying the game, a friend of mine in Ozzie says that a 50 USD game costs him the equivalent of 70$ (USD) after tax where he lives even when bought off steam.

Kalvorax Posted October 8, 2014 Share Posted October 8, 2014 heh, its called currency exchange....and/or (depending on where in europe,) VAT tax. of course the prices would be different Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tiwele Posted October 8, 2014 Share Posted October 8, 2014 Well... In Belgium, most of the games that cost 50 USD cost 50€... So that's not really currency exchange for me. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
