Why are steamies approving this?Why can't they just be Normal People like Tim Sweeney, who is currently planting a million trees for charity and love.
>Steam is abusing British peoplegood
>>731920161isn't it just because of taxes?
Steam should pull out of the UK. Follow Pornhub's lead. UK must suffer.
>>731920161>bongs don't understand regional pricingIf anything, leafs and straya cunts are far worse off.
>>731920292it's because taxes, OP is retarded [astonishing news]
Bong here, steam don't even set the prices they have recommended prices and the publisher does and ive never felt ripped off even though my currency is usually 3rd highest on steam.

>>731920161Developers set regional pricing, but also fuck the UK and her ""people"".if Valve forced fixed regional pricing, then they'd get sued for that.But it's also not what the lawsuit is about, it's about a seething developer who was told to stop selling Steam keys (which are generated FOR FREE and Steam takes no cuts) for less than the Steam price.Essentially undercutting Steam's own store with Steam keys.
>>731920527kek how pathetic
>>731920531Oi, you got a loicense for that shitpoast, mate?
>>731920161Do Brits not know that they have high taxes on goods?Ask your government why shit is priced so high

UK is legit an Islamo-commie authoritarian state at this stage, they arrest more people for speech than Russia. I don’t know why anyone should have relations with that Paki third-world shithole, let them rot.

All of these Steam UK lawsuit posts are government operated distraction teams to stop you from noticing all the surveilance laws they are trying to pass

Fucking britbongs complaining when I have to pay with the most expensive currency. You don’t see me complaining about it (a lot)
>>731920161Just wait until this man discovers why no one buys shit from the UKTheir prices are so inflated that it's usually cheaper to buy from any euro country instead when importing something physical, no matter if you're in the EU or the US.UK laws and taxes are to blame here, not Steam policies
We should take a hint from 28 Years Later and turn the United Kuckdoms into a containment zone.
>>731920638May Allah have mercy of them
>enforce fixed pricing>get sued>don't enforce fixed pricing>get sued anywaywhat's the winning move?
>>731920161The fact that poster shows a discount as if to proof that is the point, proofs how retarded steam droned are.Valve doesnt set the price, valve doesnt call devs and tells them to lower their price. They do tell devs that they can not sell their games at a lower price anywhere else tho.How is that a problem? This creates a monopoly that hits the end user. An indie dev is not alowed to sell their games on their own store front without the steam cut. So a dev has to ask 20,- instead of 15,40 it would cost without steams grab.Also 9/10 times, if game released at the same time on console as it did on pc, you will see that same 90% off on console stores
>>731920674>eussrHadn't realized that you can work it into English too, since I personally default to the CCCP initialism. I've been calling it EUvostoliitto for a while now, with the same reference.
>>731920161Since when does steam dictate the prices for games available there?
>>731920161>Doesn't know what VAT isComplain to the Government instead of bitching to steam if you're so upset thenWhat is Gabe supposed to do about UK tax?

>>731921326They do.Don't fall for their pleas for mercy. It's part of the act.
>>731920161Pretty sure devs get to pick whether they agree with steam's suggested regional pricing or not.
>>731921189>They do tell devs that they can not sell their games at a lower price anywhere else tho.This has only ever applied to selling Steam Keys.Which is fair, because Valve gets nothing from those.
I have reported this thread to the Queen's constabularies
>>731921283Anglos really are the root of all evil.
>>731921189I don't remember seeing anywhere Steam forcing developers to use their storefront tho. Because *that* would be monopoly.
>>731920161Because of VATAmerican prices are notoriously without taxes, so they need to add taxes to the shown price
>>731921189Yeah, poor indies who have to sell their games on a platform used by millions daily that gives them exposure and lets them sell unfinished alpha/beta versions freely instead of having to pick some web-based peepeepoopoo store that will trap them in a jewish publishing contract and tell them to sell games for 40 dollars. Those heccin innocent indie deverinos who were forced to succeed and get actual sales through Valve's cruelty.

>>731920161Good morning sir.
I hope Steam would just leave UK market all togetherforcing bongcuck to go through EU channel to buy games from steam
>>731921736prety sure its some bong woman trying for gibbs
>>731921736AS1 whore trying to get money (AS1 residents are retards thinking they are smart)
>>731921736it's a Tim Sweeney funded lawsuit against Valve, where it lies about Valve enforcing microtransactions to be on their platform only.Even though it's not like that on the OSRS, FF14, Path of Exile, etc..
>>731920161Fuck the UK.I hope it burns to the fucking ground and drowns all the cuck ass brits and the mudslimes they let into their country to throw acid on their stupid slutty women who will suck cock for monopoly money.

>>731920161Considering how most problems today are a byproduct of british colonialism, good. Fuck the anglos.
>>731920161Am I retarded or does Valve not choose the prices? What the fuck is this complaint?
Can someone give me a QRD
>>731920751That note is also bullshit, if you sell your game in any other platform outside of steam, their tos states that you have to price the same, including sales. If you don't you get banned, so shut the fuck up amerimutt fat fuck retard.
>>731921949>>731921854
>>731921949Retard makes retarded statement on twatter.
>>731921963so where is the proof?their guidelines don't say this, they only mention steam keys
>>731921925>Considering how most problems today are direct result of JUDAISMFixed that for you, you're welcome
>>731921949Jews are still fucking fuming that Valve is a private company, so they're blowing up news about a literallywho british court case that will go nowhere.
>>731920161Isn't this just publishers being jews?
>>731921963Pull up the relevant steam TOS entry then?
>>731921925>Whuaite peepo are the ones to blame for why my 3rd world shithole still doesn't have roads, the rivers are full of plastic, and rape is the number 1 way new births occur.The colonized never learn. They only seethe in impotent rage at their own worthlessness.
>>731920587That lawsuit is such idiotic dogshit. Dev is allowed to charge whatever he wants on whatever platform or store he wants, all valve said is all steam activation keys must be the same price, and you agree to that when you sell with them. Valves position is so simple, reasonable and legally sound ... so I'm sure the uk will fuck the pooch on it
>>731921949UK residents are mad at high prices and blame Steam instead of their government, who is actually responsible
>>731921932They don't pick the prices for each individual game but you have a system as a developer to basically "auto fair pricing" for each region, I do have it enabled. You put a base price in USD and it gets lower or higher for each country.
>>731921949Government operatives are spamming the board with this nothing burger lawsuit to distract all the normies from the mass surveilance campaign
>>731922020>Kikes are seething about a private companyI'm honestly proud of Gaben. Jews should get gassed. All of them. Every single fucking one.
>>731920527>can create a game and make bongs pay thousands in their currencythanks Gabe!
>>731920161I mean, regional pricing has always been a thing on steam, no? If a UK wagie earns £18 an our he is already earning more than a US wagie making $18 so they should be charged more.
>>731922074>UK residents are mad at high prices and blame Steam instead of their governmentNo we're not, never been mad about the prices on steam related to valve at least

US price is basically the samefair pricingGTA514.99 is £12.50 baseUS is £10.85, so, unfair, UK are paying at least 20% more.Terraria£8.50 is £7.08US is 7.23, so, fair pricing.Yakuza is £55, so $45.80US is 43.45, so, slightly unfair.as you see it varies, the real issue is LAZY pricing combined with US not doing tax inclusion
>>731922571their parasitical nature ensures their survival. lowest form of human means the least amount of effort required to keep existing.
>>731922503It's because it varies by state, America is so large that just having a flat 10, 15, or 20% makes no sense, what works economically in one area would ruin another.Not to mention their politics allows negotiating.Even in the UK, for someone like me living in a small town in Scotland, I think the flat 20% is just a London tax.

>>731923181So basically your currency is toilet paper and if they sold vidya at 33% value they would make dogshit in return?

>>731920161So they should adjust every price for every currency in real time as they fluctuate in value against the dollar? Pretty retarded desu.Also don't some third world countries pay less than the US? Should we start a lawsuit about that too?
>>731923496>So basically your currency is toilet paperDid trump dumped the ushart dollaridoo even further? Guess he wants parity with the rupee.
>>731922636>lazy pricingExchange rates vary constantly. Pound for example has gone from 1.24 USD a pound to 1.38 USD a pound in a year. Do you want devs to be constantly updating prices, or tie game prices to a specific currency and have them vary on a daily basis?
All I really care about is this;>Friend has game on Wishlist>Try to buy it them>Steam refuses because it would lose them money if I bought it them instead of them buying it themselves
that's the same with everything. i bet japanese or some other weak currency get those games for about £10
>>731923968Steam should update these globaly like once per year. They fucking SAID THEY WILL DO IT AND THEYRE STUCK SINCE 2020.
>>731921963Do you have any examples of games getting banned from Steam for that?

is he wrong?

>>731924082I don't see how that is relevant because most of the difference is accounted for by VAT.

Once they finally pushed him into his grave they went after his family next
>>731924101Yes.
It must suck to be valve where you do nothing so people just have to make shit up to seethe at you about. Then other people join them because its opportunistic to do so. Timmy is just a lying hypocrite and the best example but this UK lawsuit is literally being done by a litigious company that has been suing game companies for year hoping for a settlement instead of a win.
>>731924101Valve is a company, they give you a service, they take a cut. If the problem is the 30%, how much would be adequate?
>>731924365>make shit upThe prices ARE retarded you fucking mongoloid.
>>731924101Steam is the sole reason why pc gaming is still relevant today.
>>731924439>VAT is retardedblame your government
>>731923697what do you mean? I'm not gonna pirate online multiplayer games
>>731924472Its not VAT you cocksucker.
>>731924439Ok? Go ask the people who set the prices then a.k.a. the publishers.
>>731923697It hurts the dev, it's worse than piracy.
>>731924439The prices are set by the devs how is this steam's fault? In fact the whole "abusing regional prices to get a discount" trick valve used to have for a decade went away because devs bitches about people buying their games at converted rates using third world currencies.
>>731924406
>>731924439>The prices ARE retarded you fucking mongoloid.So you yell at Steam who has no control of what publishers charge?
>>731924630You actually pay a mark up when still running patents are involved. Is this dude retarded?
>british government full of gay retarded traitors>tax steam sales because they're retarded communists>gayben charges them more as a fuck youreciprocity
>>731924678Yes. Default currency conversion is stuck at inflated covid levels.
>900mil Unironically, who is going to get money?

>>731924754The british government will use it to finance more rape gangs and knife crime against whites
>>731924804But shouldn't gamers get their money back if it's lawsuit for their sake?
>>731924630Just don't put it on steam if you can do everything steam does cheaper?
Valvejeets on full motion
>>731920292VAT is 20% which doesn't account for the difference. The UK has always been fucked on pricing despite being poor and underpaid. I just stopped buying new games like a decade ago because they already cranked the prices to 80+ dollars and since 5 years ago it's now 100 dollars per game. This is a third world country.
>>731924860>Thanks for yer 'elp is suing valve>'eres ya cut. A whoppin twenny quid for ye troubles
Pretty much, Sweeney even said the pc is dead some years ago - now they are all complaining like little bitches
steam doesnt set the prices, publishers do. how is this case even being entertained?
>>731924750>>tax steam sales because they're retarded communistsYou do realize you pay sales tax on Steam for any US state that mandates sales tax too, right? Lots of countries mandate Valve collect sales tax for anything they sell on Steam. This is not a Britain only thing.
>>731924630>what is a service vs a goodHow can leftists actually be this retarded?
Steam monopoly should die for EGS monopoly!
>>731924101>really rooting for you guys to put out a quality alternative to steam>quality>EGSalso>forgetting that Valve made PC gaming a worthwhile investment for developers with Steambefore Steam, PC gaming was abandoned by all companies including Timmy.>>731924630>What does Valve do with that money?https://github.com/ValveSoftware/Protonit's a mystery.
>Don't worry UK citizens>I am here to help!I'm sure bongs are relieved once again their government has come to their rescueDon't you wish we had an NHS like Britain does my fellow Americans? We should really and try emulate more British policies they're really leading the way on protecting children from the online dangers of misinformation and harmful pornography
>>731924630>how dare the service provider demand that i pay to use the serviceim more and more convinced that having a twitter account must automatically reduce one's IQ to the singular digits
>>731924927False. By default Steam will automatically set regional prices to not be based on exchange rate but "purchasing power" for that region. Steam by default will fuck over certain regions.
>>731920527>Bongs are significantly poorer than burgers>They universally overpay for everythingI'm failing to see the counter argument.
>>731920161Britfags fucked us with tea in 1773 and now we're fucking them with vidya in 2026AMERICA
>>731924875Don’t bother. Fanboys will be fanboys. They’d rather let their spite for Epic Games blind them to the harm done to developers. Mostly because gamers don’t give a shit about developers to begin with. They only care about the games.
>>731924927The company behind the lawsuit has a history of suing companies, dragging the case out as long as possible, and farming the settlement money. They already did this same dance with playstation.
>>731920161Bongs deserve all the misery in the world, for being the kike's main base of operation against whitekind up until WW2.Based Steam, raise their prices!
>>731924630An entire infraestructure of servers that have to survive being pounded by millions of users every day is more than "a bit of bandwith".
>>731925084steam recommends prices but the developers can list their price to be whatever. blame all the scummy legislation adding all kinds of taxes and duties which artificially inflates the cost digital goods which is the real factor behind upping prices.
>>731924630Does this retard not understand all stores do this for everything sold?Those devs are more than welcome to not use a storefront
>>731922730I feel like it's just a five year long cope that Overgrowth wasn't as successful as he thought it would be and that by the time the full version came out everyone forgot it even existed.
>>731925196Shouldn't they pay compesnation to companies for that shit?
>>731925225Don't defend this shit.By default, Valve doesn't go by exchange rate. To go by exchange rate you have to manually do every single region yourself and you also you have to manually update it periodically because exchange rate fluctuates.Valve set it up so doing anything but bullshit price fixing is a major pain in the ass.
>>731924860gamers get to play horde mode in their own home towns now
>>731924964Mate, they think farmers need to be purged and that food comes from the supermarket
>>731924101He's right and we know this because valve offered better cuts to AAA games that actually had the marketing weight to sell elsewhere, indie devs have no real choice but to eat the 30%. This is a regressive tax on the poorest developers.
>>731925095>Bongs are significantly poorer than burgersIt's the other way around tho.
>>731924908Well then maybe they shouldn't have a cutrency that's worth more than the ALMIGHTY US DOLLAR.
>>731920161The UK is a terror state, it's a good thing if they suffer
>>731924860No it'd be more fiscally responsible to award it directly to the government, people will get it back in the form of infrastructure and public services
>>731920161Are they going to sue supermarkets who sell the same products in other parts of the world at lower prices?Same shit, fucking britfagsAlso, that price difference is because the players didn't got their gayming loicense
>>731925383>offered better cuts to AAA gamesto successful games of any budget, because then the game has already paid for it's services for a lifetime
>>731925182>Mostly because gamers don’t give a shit about developers to begin with. They only care about the games.True and the only correct position for the gamer. I don't care about your cut, just what I have to personally pay. If all of gaming died today and never recovered there's still enough games to cover multiple lifetimes available. Missing out is not a deal breaker.
>>73192539420% of Britain is below the poverty line. Only 10% of the US is.Britain is so fucked these days it's insane.

>>731925325valve doesnt force you to sell at a certain price. debate over.
How the fuck was GB not region blocked from this site? Didn't their retarded gov try to fine this site?
>>731925041His solution would be to just ban video games out right and tax us heavily to cover the hole in the economy it would make. Wouldn't be surprised if that was on the table already
>>731925224A developer who releases a tiny indie game that is 5mb in size and sells 1000 copies should not need to pay to subsidise AAA games that are 200gb large and have tens of millions of downloads (who also get a deal that lowers the 30% take)
Tim totally paid UK shitters to sue Valve.How low can that man go? I wouldn't be surprised if he seriously thought of hiring a hitman, that fucking bastard
>default conversion STILL set at covid's 1usd - 5złThere's no point of buying directly from steam anymore.MGS3 btw.
>>731925578>Didn't their retarded gov try to fine this site?No.EU and Australia did.
>>731924102Depending on exchange rates, I can't purchase games for friends in Brazil, Philippines or Finland. Its annoying,
Why does Timmy want to have Fortnite on Steam so badly?
>>731921542>Britishers
>>731925041I'm thankful for the NHS because if it hadn't been invented I'd have probably had my foreskin cut off when I was a baby
>>731925648This is why I made 2nd account in other country, fuck volvo.
>>731920161lol imagine being a dumb fag bad teeth big forehead brit
>>731925679oh, you can thank devs for that. You used to be able to do that until enough of them bitched at Valve to close that loophole. The change was like a year ago irrc and the seethe in threads was funny since tons of poorfags were abusing it (why not just pirate at that point idk).
>>731921697>He says while posting the picture of a British man.
>>731925394No it isn't.
>>731925665Nah the retarded brits are trying it too with Ofcom to force sites to comply with their gay online safety act.https://www.bbc.com/news/articles/clyjq40vjl7o
>>731920205BREXIT MEANS BREXIT
>>731925774>be UK>borderline failed state>make retarded online safety laws>try to fine websites not hosted in the UK>have no way of enforcing this >only way to get these fines is to spam nasty emails and intimidate site ownersits amazing how retarded, impotent, and desperate the UK government is lmao
>>731925383Except that's a blatant lie. Valve uses a tier system based on earnings, not whether or not the dev is AAA, AA, or indie. Fuck, you could even argue it's more advantageous to indie devs since the indie game market is actually flourishing whereas the AAA industry is steadily going down the shitter with flop after flop after flop.
>>731925774Steam brought that upon themselves by deciding to sell porn. Gabe never should have caved on that. He was right when he said "Porn has no place on Steam."
>>731921075To close down so that government backed corporations can take over and completely fuck the consumer raw.
>>731925774Actually the Brits are trying to force 4chan to hand over all their user data on users because some are British that means the UK government get to look at US citizens tooBecause their gay UK law said they can>4chan+Kiwifarms: Uh no fuck off retard>We'll show you>Wikipedia, you gott->Wikipedia: No fuck you retards, go ahead and block wikipedia lmao lets see how that goes lol>Oh no, no, no, no they weren't supposed to do that they were just supposed to give free money and spy on their users
>>731925498AAA Devs use disproportionately more bandwidth and are more likely to reach these thresholds because of their inflated marketing budget. It's hardly a "fair" situation when indies are subsidising AAA
>>731920161lol get fucked Starmer
>>731924101>really rooting for you guys>rooting for the guy most vocal about PC gaming being a dead end market and bringing console exclusivity faggotry to PCyou sure pick you aliegences
>>731925923>Valve uses a tier system based on earningsThat is not true at all.I can tell you right now the major multi-national publisher I work for gets a sweet deal regardless of the game's earnings because that's what we negotiated with Valve.
discovering taxes i see
>>731920161The world should isolate UK like in 28years later because of the jeets virus
>>731925868yup, what they are doing is similar to tantrum of a 2 year old kid
>>731920161>British """"people""""
>>731920161Just pirate brit bro.
>>731925868>its amazing how retarded, impotent, and desperate the UK government is lmaoThey called Amelia a hate symbol recentlyYou know the propaganda they made? Hate symbol now because they lost complete control of the narrativeIt's like how on Tiktok saying Zionist is bannable offence but only if you use it in a negative way, if you're a proud Zionist then it's fineJust like if you talk about how whites are becoming a minority in their own homelands, it's only hatespeech if you say it like its a bad thing
>>731926001>indies are subsidising AAAnobody believes this
>>731926039>I can tell you right now the major multi-national publisher I work for gets a sweet deal regardless of the game's earnings because that's what we negotiated with Valve.Sure thing, bro. I'm guessing you can't say what that multi-national publisher is because it'd jeopardize your position with the company because you're under a strict NDA or some shit but we should totally just believe you.
