SE2 regional price in Poland 11% higher than in Euro. SE1 regional price is equal to Euro.

Space Engineers 2 regional price for Poland is 11% higher than in Euro or US Dollars. Valve's suggested prices are very outdated. You set the price for Space Engineers 1 manually, so it's actually how it should be - close to the price in Euro after currency conversion.


Could you please fix the price for Space Engineers 2? Many developers set their prices manually because Valve's suggested prices were supposed to be updated at least once a year and they didn't change for almost 3 years, so Poland has crazy high prices because our currency was temporarily very weak during pandemic when Valve calculated the suggested prices.

Other currencies are affected too, and in some instances, Space Engineers 2 is cheaper than Space Engineers 1:

Space Engineers 1 price in South Asia - USD: $19.99

Space Engineers 2 price in South Asia - USD: $10.49

Is anything going to happen in that regard? It's been 7 months and no reply.

Me and my friends are waiting for the price to be fixed before buying the game.

They replied to my support ticket. First they said they don't have direct control over regional pricing on Steam. When I showed proofs that other developers adjust their regional prices manually, they deleted the first response from the support ticket and replied:

Hello,

We are using Steam's general pricing.

Best regards,

The SE2 Support Team


You can see screenshots from the support ticket linked in the above thread on Steam forums (my previous comment).

That's pretty sad.

I used to think of KSH as a company that cares about their customers.

It's funny that in South Asia SE2 is 2x cheaper than SE1 and they still don't want to do anything about it.

Also no wonder there are Steam keys flying around for 3 times cheaper price than the original. I guess we're just gonna grab those.
