PhantomShade Posted April 2, 2015 Report Share Posted April 2, 2015 I feel pc gamers in India who legally buy games should boycott games which are over 1.5k.Otherwise if we keep buying overpriced PC games, then they will keep increasing the price even more. This way if the publishers and game distributors realize Indians won't pay 2-3k for PC games, then they will have no choice but bring the price back to the previous 999 and under. Does anyone agree with me? Yes.But who will unite all Indian pc gamers? There is no platform. Also we get the silent treatment Like with EA stopping retail game sales here Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mohit9206 Posted April 2, 2015 Report Share Posted April 2, 2015 (edited) Yes. But who will unite all Indian pc gamers? There is no platform. Also we get the silent treatment Like with EA stopping retail game sales here Well there is no need to unite, just need common sense to understand whether we are getting ripped off or not. Looking at upcoming PC games, we have GTA V which at 2.5k so i will wait for price drop, Witcher 3 which is worth 1.5k, Arkham Knight will wait till its less than 1k,etc. I don't even buy Call of Duty games as they're 3k every year for minor changes and EA stopping its retail in India hurts them not us as we still get to play their games in alternative ways.

IshmaelIsBack Posted April 3, 2015 Report Share Posted April 3, 2015 Meanwhile, GoG giving S.T.A.L.K.E.R. boxed copy owners (GameSpy and Starforce DRM) a means to reclaim their games. This is fantastic stuff. Credit should be given where it's due and this time it's not only GOG but GSCGW as well, assuming the IP belongs to them and if they allow it. It's a sad scene after their name got involved with that kickstarter f**kup Areal, consisting of their former employees. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

chimera201 Posted April 3, 2015 Report Share Posted April 3, 2015 I wish Steam introduced region pricing for India like Russia. Indians also won't be able to export keys with region locking. Imagine we would be buying AAA games for less than 100 Rs. when its 75%off on a sale. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

chimera201 Posted April 3, 2015 Report Share Posted April 3, 2015 Steam is ignored in India due to 2 reasons. US pricing(games at retail are always priced lesser at launch) and poor internet. Russia made sales for Steam after the region pricing was introduced Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Truckload of info , very glad with DS & DS 2 sales Yes its great we can know sales of every game ever sold on steam approximately. However it seems some game developers have reported less by their publishers than what Steam spy shows. This was first reported in the neogaf thread yesterday. This could lead to #SteamGate.

chimera201 Posted April 5, 2015 Report Share Posted April 5, 2015 So India is #39, China is #7, Russia is #2. Hmm And CS:GO is #1, Dota 2 is #3 in India. Doesn't seem right. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

chimera201 Posted April 5, 2015 Report Share Posted April 5, 2015 How doesn't it seem right? Well Dota 2 is F2P and CS:GO is a paid game. And I personally know more Dota 2 players than CS:GO players. Also i asked that steamspy guy. Here is his reply I can't count private profiles, of course. I've only added Dota 2 to the database today, so information for Dota 2 isn't yet reliable. It will be more or less reliable in 3 days. I should've added a warning, that's my mistake. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
