Thing isn't in benefiting underpriced games for Russia, thing is in hyperinflated prices in US.
Cause - US prints money without heavy loss of currency's value. Money is used to buy things in other countries, and regularly return in big chunks with bribed/corrupt foreigners which flee from defaulted countries, like Berezovsky from Russia or Saakashvili from Georgia.
These people can afford big spendings, capitalists, ho, up their prices(rent, food, education, everything...) , because there are people who can afford them, companies then increase wages to accommodate for bigger spendings of their workers, more money in the area - you can up prices even more...

Let's take hypothetical situation - you need to buy bananas from Zimbabwe. They say: $100 our dollars for banana, and flat price $1 zimbabwe=$1 US.
You know that they print money in trillions, and their wage gives $100000 Zimbabwe for the same job you do for $100 US.
Fair rate should be different, but... Zimbabwe doesn't need US dollars. Demand/supply curve.
In real life world trades oil as bananas, and US is this Zimbabwe.
How harsh is hyperinflation... Who knows.
I got 2 specialist engineering degrees in Russia (equiv of Master) for $1k total. My brother got Master degree in computer design for $5k, now works in company which sells animation to Nickelodeon. As I have seen, these same courses would cost 10-20 times more in US.
Food? ~$8 for kg of perfect bacon. Imported chocolate $0.8/100g
Communal payments? I pay ~$50 monthly.

If games cost close to average monthly wage - who would buy them?
With digital distribution producers have choice - squeeze some more money for the price of electrical bill or not getting anything.

Did you not even read the first sentence of what you quoted? Red marks, need to work on reading comprehension.

Dude, HeIsSinistar has a matryoshka up his ass. It's hopeless.

Q.E.D.

From MaGog's logs for 24 February:

* Regional price for Hot Tin Roof: The Cat That Wore A Fedora in RU: $4.99 instead of $14.99
* Regional price for Hot Tin Roof: The Cat That Wore A Fedora in UZ: $4.99 instead of $14.99

Oo, who's a bad kitty? Just look at the list you made!

Don't look at me. Can't you see it's the DOG's fault?

Fixed that for ya. ;)

Weren't sure, as it works in the original form too. :)

Double entendre intended.

It might be the wrong number, but make no mistake. Hotline Miami 2 does know its regions.

And it also earns the distinction of kicking off our Regional Locked thread/GOGmix combo.

Hurrah for the Global Marketplace!

Oh, I so enjoyed HM1 that I wanted to buy Hotline Miami 2 at full price sometime, too bad that I don't support regional pricing and will have to get it with a bundle someday. Too bad that my dollars are not good enough for them and are obviously worth less.

At least it's not banned here...yet...

Unfortunately, GOG"s introduction of regional banning/censorship has broken MaGog's harvesting of regional pricing information.
Until fixed, MaGog is unable to obtain regional pricing information on new games or identify regional pricing changes in old games.
Since I am on holiday from tomorrow until Monday, I will begin looking into it only on Tuesday.
