Steam is region locking PC games to thwart low currency value exploits

[Typhoon.X]

The online storefront is region locking games in an effort to prevent users from exploiting low currency values. For example, you could buy a Russian game on Steam for a few bucks as opposed to, say, $40 - $60 when purchased through the US storefront. Now, that's a little harder to do and it's causing a bit of an uproar because PC games have typically not been subject to region locks the way console games, on the other hand, have. The move is affecting areas outside of Putin's backyard too, with reports that Brazil, Indonesia and their neighboring areas are affected too.

Što se same vesti tiče, definitivno su ubili jeftine regione, ali trgovci uvek nađu neko rešenje, tako da će jeftinih igra uvek biti, samo ne više onoliko jeftino kolko je bilo za vreme "ruske" vladavine
