B1tF1ghter: Google exchange rate converter says exactly 14.89 usd (from your Rp 209999 [got it from SteamDB]). I agree it's quite a HUGE price difference.
I don't know how many currencies GOG supports. And even if it would support your currency it SHOULD be up to the publisher to set a price for a given region. So I don't neccesarily understand the greed. Tho from technical standpoint GOG should (should as in "GOG should be allowing that" and not "GOG probably does that") give publishers a way to just set several different prices say in euro depending on country geoip. But I guess they don't do that.
viranimus: This has nothing to do with Gog because I know steams pricing is the same but 50$ for a game that you can get physical PS4 copies for all day long for 10-20$ is outrageous. Even if it were as low as 30$ to reflect the effort put in to building a PC release and working out mouse driven controls I could somewhat understand it.
This is why digital distribution is a problem to the industry and even DRM free makes no difference. The "off the lot" depreciation of games has always been a quality control aspect of gaming. Bad games meant traded in quickly for cash thus flooding the market with copies thus forcing the price down. It can happen to good games too when a game is excessively popular but no replay value to it. For example with this generation and blood borne and HZD. But with digital distribution you do not have that and as such we have already seen that digital products are MORE expensive despite costing less to produce. They also remain at higher prices longer.
Sorry but this is not going to make the game industry healthy next generation when everything is forced into digital distribution. Its going to hurt gaming because its cutting off gaming from large swaths of its target demographic who are not going to pay 60-70 for a new game, regardless of their reasoning for doing it. Its going to push people back toward piracy as well. This is resulting in loss of our culture on top of it. We already see that with digital games they "vanish" and cant be obtained again after they are gone.
Again this isnt GOGs fault, GOG has been trying to do the right thing in the face of these companies trying to FORCE this on us all (and succeeding ) but GOG is like a band-aid on an amputation.
So prepare for prices to go up and for the target demographic of gaming to get older and older than it already is. Many of us waged this war over the last decades only to have more of us collaborating with the enemy unwittingly snuffing out the longevity of what has been a life long attachment for msot of us. Nothing good comes of it.

Sometimes I think that companies who sell their games on GOG treats us like a third world country. As someone who comes from that kind of country feels. We're getting our hands on stuffs late, or last, if we do get it at all. And even if we do get it, we have to pay higher price.
And I'm also thinking that companies who sell their games here are trying to compensate just in case their games got into "the wild" if you know what I mean. So 1 person on GOG need to pay for 2 or 3 person more. I just can't imagine the next time a new company joins and sell their games at 3-4 times the prices on other platforms. Even though it crossed my mind even before HZD released here.
