Steam also does this. Most games are significantly cheaper in low-income countries like mine because otherwise they wouldn't make a dime here. | ||

That's because you usually pay via credit card (or some other financial mean) which is cumbersome (and may be illegal) to spoof. But yeah, it can be hard to justify a subscription when it's the price of a full meal. Especially when other essential subscriptions (electricity, water, internet, cell services,...) is straining your monthly budget. | ||

Steam is not the one doing that. Publishers decide regional pricing. | ||
