I'm really tempted to use a VPN and buy the game for the cheapest price possible. I normally wouldn't consider doing such a thing, but when people from GB have to pay nearly 2.5 times more than people from Australia and people from the rest of Europe have to pay about 55% more than people from the USA, then the pricing is nothing but a rip-off. Buying it by using a VPN might be the right way to say "Fuck you!" to Telltale Games.

It's outrageous, I agree. Now, simply, you may prefer ignoring these games altogether. If GOPG prefers to promote that kind of crap rather than much more insteresting games, the best message to send is to vote with your wallet.

This is just ridiculous. Certainly a game which goes to my ignore list.

You're right. I guess that's what I will do. My backlog is enormous anyway, I reall don't need any more games right away.

So oldies with full regional pricing and... holy crap at Hector! Did they set the EU prices based on a $29.99 instead of $19.99 by any chance?

Yes, certainly seems to be the case for all regions except for AU/NZ/BR. I wonder how long it'll take to fix the bug.

Do note that BR gets a discount, but MX does not.

Not on GOG. Here the aussies almost always get a discount (when there is regional pricing with higher price points than the US base price):

Highest prices have to be paid by the citizens of the UK:

In addition to the lists linked to by PaterAlf, there's a summary table that shows that Australians pay on average 18.5% less than the US on 113 games.

$19..99 regionally-priced games often cost $15.99 in AU/NZ, but $13.89 has been recorded before, most recently with the Van Helsing games.

Armello is developed by Melbourne based studio League of Geeks. The least they could do for their fellow countrymen is offer the game at a good price when every other regional pricing mostly tends to be highly unfavorable to the Aussies.
