    Hello,
    I want to talk about the price... In Turkey, That's a lot... Will you do discount after release or this will stay like this?
    Steam has 60 dollar games, which I can mostly buy them with 89 Turk lira. But this game in the Windows Store is 230 Turk lira. This is absolutely over price.

    Sea of Thieves - 60$ In Turkey 230TL

    Please, can you do something about this?

    Examples:

    Have a good day.

    @ishid4 Maybe move to a country where the currency is valued higher? Not sure what to tell you. 60$ is a very fair price for this game.

    @n8cst Yea 60$ seems fair but not in Turkey now...

  • n8CST

    @ishid4 Not sure what to tell you. I actually feel that this game is severely under priced.

    @ishid4 Isnt that the exact amount you need to pay. 60$ is equal to something about 230 TL. 89 TL is just roughly 23$. But im sure they will lower the price in sometime after release so dont worry. You can also buy it from another website too.

    @mcy0 I know 89TL seems not fair but I get used to Steam' prices. Thank you for your comment. I hope so...

    I take it they don't have the Game Pass in Turkey?

    Yeah i just had a total hip replacement surgery so money is tight for me till i go back to work.
    Can you feel bad for me too and give me special pricing? My friend is getting divorced so he could use a discount too.
    Thanks ill be awaiting the email.

    @ishid4 Just because steam undercharges you and your country's money is worth so little does not mean that the developers have to give YOU a special price because "your used to steams prices"

    How? How is a game that costs 10 euros more than any other AAA title in Europe "severely under priced"?

    A poor lady who gives all the pennies she has is worth more than the rich giving money.

    I would say if you truly want this game, and you feel it in your heart, work hard(er) to get that extra TL for this game.

  • n8CST

    @naamar1 Because you are going to get more out of this AAA game than many other AAA games.

    Very debatable. Most hours I have in a game is a free one. I just compared prices of very successful titles and they're mostly 30-50 euros with a few exceptions being 60 euros. SoT is 70 euros. So I would say that "severly under priced" is a bit of an exaggeration :P

    @naamar1 It's under priced. [mod removed].

    I think 230 TL is a pretty decent price, That's roughly $60 USD, Or £43 GBP, I'm paying £50 GBP which is roughly 260TL or $70 USD.

    Steam lower their prices compared to other sources, So I wouldn't complain about the price, I'm not ;)

    Excuse me? [mod removed]? I'm simply pointing out that your argument about "severely under priced" is flawed. [mod removed], now.

    @its-stoobs Thanks for commenting but you can't compare these like this. 1 month Turkey salary is 352£ but example Germany is 1.498£.

    @ishid4 I was simply comparing the price comparison, I've not been to Turkey, I don't know their pricing system.
    All I know is that Rare have attempted to make all prices at least close to similar, This being said, Turkey have the price cheaper than both UK and US.

    If you can't be nice, then there is no point in posting. Disagreement is fine, rudeness is unnecessary

    And youre proof that people who beg for handouts get mad when things aren't given to them.

    Tell that to these guys who keep begging for handouts then call anyonewho disagree with them cancer or bad people.
    The foruns shouldn't be a place of public begging.

    @n8cst did you just say that a multiplayer only game is worth more than 60$. This game should be 40$ at most for the lack of progression and content
