Your choice to select GNI - are the other 120 countries listed below Russia all inferior in your eyes? Why do Russians deserve a 50% discount? All you are demonstrating is affordability - if you can’t - bad luck… I can’t afford to drink Château Mouton Rothschild - but that’s my problem for not having enough £$ ---

Because their GNI is lower. Also it is possible to make other server with other sub cost. ---

mine is wondering why do you count money in someone else’s pockets? why do you think that smarter pricing specialists in the ccp. Complaining that the regional margin is different for someone, you will only lead to the cost of raising prices, reducing the number of players, and there are not a few among Russians, online donation, which will lead to a number of other consequences. Yes, in our country, the average salary is 520 dollars per month. and this is taking into account the “rich” regions. on average in Russia a total of 280. Are you really sure that raising prices will attract “new blood”? I personally will unsubscribe from next month. Rejoice when you “kick out” the rest of the game and play in your little world. half of the country is unemployed due to coronavirus. We do not have such a state. support like in America and Europe. In general, I do not mind paying like everyone else. but now I can’t physically. and such an attitude towards me suggests that ccp do not respect us and they don’t want the Russians to play eve… Ok.

I miss this days too. I will not switch to political topics. but in half the cases, it’s not easy for people to live. and raising prices, in the midst of a crisis, is how to tax the last thing that was expensive and take it away. life is not too simple on this side.
