So. About the chinese prices.

Even Activision lowered their prices. MW 3 is like 15$ here, the others like 10$.
Bethesda has special prices (like Fallout 4 is like 28$).
Segas Prices seem lowered.
Square Enix has good prices. Just Cause 3 about 20$.
2K has good ones.

Ubisoft.. Seems they didnt do much. At least their new titles are about 50$.
Bandai Namco also has normal prices.

Ubisoft is slightly cheaper, SE and Acti are on par or more expensive than original prices in Taiwan.

Horrible.

Has Valve said when will they accept Chilean Pesos? I remember that they said earlier this year that it would be one of the new currencies but it wasn't added today. Also, in the countries that have changed currencies, do they still only accept payment from a credit card and PayPal or do they add new methods of payment from those countries?

It seems Ubisoft will adjust price later.

From my experience with Indonesian currency change back then, yes, they still do.
You can still buy games with cc, even debit card now (thanks, Gaben). You can also still buy and redeem $ steam wallet card and steam will automatically convert it to your currency.
 
Looking at Fallout 4 steamdb page, I found that Malaysia price got a cut last month, from RM 220 to RM 190. What happen to the early buyers in that case? Will they get a change, or should they refund and re-buy the game?

Edit: and apparently, someone is currently playing the game as we speak.
 
If what I read on local forum is correct, Taiwan and Hong Kong are grouped together in ACRTAG region, but AAA games aren't even cheaper what the fuck!

Kurt Russell has been complaining about that. He pays with USD yet is still region locked to the Latin America region.
Did you not get paired with the SEA region, though? If yes, you could recieve cheap game gifts, at a least.

Nope, only us and HK, we are screwed.

Refund and rebuy is the way to go. I just did that with my $60 pre-order of Deus Ex. The refund was approved in about 75 minutes and I got the money in my wallet immediately.

After thinking about it for a bit, I've concluded that this change has been a net negative. The entire catalogs of several publishers are now unavailable for me to purchase. A few of them have put regional pricing on 75% of their catalog but skipped the last 25% for some unfathomable reason. Many indies haven't sent a local currency price either so I can't buy those either. Gifting to anyone outside my country is completely disabled. And Paypal as a payment option is gone. The games that have really cheap prices are nice but on the whole I liked things better before the change. At least then I could wait for an acceptable sale and buy almost anything I wanted to. Now I can't buy a large number of games no matter what.

Is there any way to complain about Steam game ordering? Some series are just killing me. Final Fantasy, for example...

Valve added support for name independent ordering ages ago, blame SE

Steam needs the ability to rename games and move them where we want like itunes. not sure why they are not realizing that.hopefully one day, it took a long time just to get multiple game selection.

For some strange reason humble bundle is showing that my keys for resident evil 4 and RE5 DLC haven't been redeemed when I redeemed both games. Is this a bug or did I get an extra key or something?

Don't forget RE4 being in all lower-case!

yea that would bother me too but I don't have it on Steam, still waiting for that dirt cheap sale price since I don't really like it much compared to other RE games and I hear the m/kb controls are fucked

What happened to Shadownet? Haven't seen the dude around here for a while and he removed me on Steam as well.

He's been known to say some racist things, be it borne of ignorance or otherwise, and netted himself a hefty ban for his OT posts. He's due back next year, but he took the opportunity to clean house.
