regional pricing isn't always applied. Egypt still has USD pricing making a $60 game a quarter the median monthly income making that $60 game the equivalent of $700

Same in Vietnam. The average gamer demographic makes like 15k-25k VND/hr. That's like $.60-$.1.10 an hour. So 55-110 hours of labor for a video game. Everyone here is a pirate, and rightfully so.
