New MENA-USD pricing for Steam

Hello. I live in Turkey and due to new Steam regulations the Turkish Lira is no longer the payment currency. Before the 20.11. we payed 795 TL for 12.500 Auric Cells. The average monthly income is between 2.800 - 4.000 Turkish Lira so it was expensive but somehow affordable. With the new prices for MENA-USD we have to pay the standard USD prices because Dead by Daylight didnt set up the new MENA-USD prices for those regions. So right now we have to pay 100 USD. Thats around 2.800 Turkish Lira if I convert it. In no world its affordable for people who live in Turkey or in general in the MENA regions.

My question is: Will you (like all other game devs did) adjust the MENA-USD prices or will they stay on the same level as the standard USD prices? Steam support said that each game developer has to set the new MENA-USD prices manually and if they didnt all prices are shown as the based USD prices.... So I hope you guys just forget about making manually inputs on Steam. :/

    Hello, do you have any plans to change the in-game currency specifically to the currencies of the countries, or will you continue with dollars? Because the currency of some countries is lower than the dollar, making purchases becomes almost impossible. Examples of these countries are Argentina and Turkey. For now, this is probably in Steam's hands, not yours (as far I guess), but are you planning to work on this in the future?

    According to the Steam Support the game developer has to set new prices for the new introduced MENA-USD/ LATAM-USD regions. If the game developer didnt set them up both regions get the based USD price, which is the case right now. Thats why I asked, if they just forgot to enter the new prices for those regions or if the increase of like 350%(+) is really planned.

    Probably the biggest thing they can do is to convert the in-game dollar exchange rate to TL, but I think there will be no decrease in prices and it will be directly at the same price of the USD version.

    I doubt it. But you know who's causing this, it's not Behavior or Steam. It's the uzun adaaaaam

    It's weird that the Chapter prices were adjusted to use the suggested regional pricing but AC were left untouched...

    Exactly. They adjusted the base game price and DLCs. But for Auric Cells it seems like „Nah +400% price increase is fine“.

    Looks like its not just a MENA-USD problem. Same thing happening on LATAM-USD.
