ok ty. If i redeem them on gog will i still have the steam version avalaible for the frist and second game (my achiv are on steam for the second game).

Yes, you will still keep them. The GOG copies will be in addition to the Steam ones.

ok thank you very much i'll do that and buy the 3rd game on gog. Client is a little bit rough but it looks promising and i want to support cd projekt red.

Still no pricing in CAD dollars, that's a shame. GOG you may want to look at this an option, as I am finding games on here and going to Steam to purchase them as they are priced cheaper there than buying here, paying in USD and having the price converted.

I have been with you since beta, have purchased quite a number of games, but I buy very little from you now because of this. I am sure there are fellow Canadians on here who would agree.

I'm in the same boat. I've bought a ton of games from GOG and want to continue supporting them, but it's hard to justify when the prices on Steam are so much cheaper due to the difference in the value of our dollar. The difference has gotten huge and the change has been very rapid. It may not be anyone's responsibility to alter pricing, but market forces are going to drive Canadians toward Steam for the time being - it's simple math.

After seeing my credit card bill from December, i'm also sorry to admit I have to stop making large purchases here until changes are made or the CAD recovers.

For most games, the price gap between here and Steam is just too large now for Canadian customers to continue choosing GOG.

Agreed. DRM-free isn't enough (at least for me) to justify paying an extra $10 or more due to the poor exchange rate and conversion fees from credit cards.

The latter is something a lot of people forget. When you buy a product in USD using a Canadian credit card, the issuing bank charges a conversion fee on top of however the exchange rate works out.

Sure, those conversion fees exist no matter what, but the point is that when adding them on top of the poor exchange rate, Canadians ending up paying a lot more on GOG than they would on Steam.

Right now, the conversion is almost 50%, so yeah, not going to be doing a lot of large purchases here (or elsewhere, actually, if I have to pay in USD).

As other Canadians have said, it's tough to justify purchases on GOG right now due to the economic tank of our dollar. Steam, Origin and Bundlestars all price in Canadian dollars now. As a compulsive game buyer, I've found that my percentage of purchases from GOG and Greenman have almost trickled to a halt. Hopefully we can get Canadian pricing here soon.

I think the last purchase I made here was months ago and it was the Season Pass for The Witcher 3. And I only bought it here because I bought the base game here. My regular routine with GoG now consists of seeing it here and buying it on Steam. When it is on sale here, Steam usually marks the game down on their site too, which results in even bigger savings than if I purchased here and had to convert the funds.

GoG, I have been with you since beta, and have purchased alot of games from you (my library tells me 283 to be exact). I now refuse to buy anything here as you do not offer pricing in Canadian dollars. Steam, Origin, Uplay all offer C$ pricing, and there is no reason that I can see that you cannot do the same.

The exchange rate is really bad now but it has gone both way more than once in my lifetime. Being my age also mean that most games are now much cheaper now, when inflation is calculated in (or not for most indies), then they were back in the 8 bits computer days.

Pffftt... the best for us Canadians would be if GOG started accepting Canadian Tire money at par with the USD! :o)

Because it's one-off digital goods.

If you make physical goods like cars, you got to pay for labor and materials for every single unit you produce and it will be priced according to the cost at the source. For example, if it's made in England and if the cost of labor in England happens to be higher relative to other places because their currency is strong, it will be more expensive for those with weaker currency.

With non-service oriented digital goods, the first copy you come up with is extremely expensive to make. The remainder are the price of bandwidth.

Ideally, you want to adjust the price of one-off digital goods to what your customers can pay (not as an absolute price, but as a relative price depending on how much people are making where each of your would-be customers live), because you want as many people are possible to afford your product: the cost factor is negligible and each sale is almost pure profit.

To a certain extent, they do that during temporary time windows with heavily discounted sales on digital games. In some areas, they won't be able to afford the games at full price, but once it's 90% off...

Have not purchased games on GOG for a very long time now, find my self buying on Steam instead.
GOG must be losing sales due to poor exchange rate and pricing in US dollars?
