turkish here, piracy is already a big thing for any kind of media/games here, but steam almost ended piracy for gaming. i've not pirated a game since like 4 years, but i suspect i'll go back to it after this change, i'd like to support the devs but i just can't afford it,sorry.

Same. I guess we will both install the game and also listen some cool music 😄

The prices are still regionalised, they’re just in USD/Euro instead of the equivalent local currency

same, I can no longer buy a game from steam at this point.
