Now Officially Kebab-Priced

I was standing at my local Döner shop here in Berlin the other day, waiting for my order, when it hit me: A Döner (plus a Coke) costs roughly what Tackle for Loss does here in Euro. That felt right for Berlin.

I was standing at my local Döner shop here in Berlin the other day, waiting for my order, when it hit me: A Döner (plus a Coke) costs roughly what Tackle for Loss does here in Euro.

That felt right for Berlin. But it made me wonder: Is that "Döner-Equity" the same everywhere else?

I started chatting with players from all over the world, and it turns out that Valve’s default currency conversion doesn't feel fair in my opinion. I don't want the game to be a luxury investment.

So, I’ve manually adjusted the prices to make things more fair:

  • For my players in Turkey and the Middle EastI’ve reduced the price by 36% . It should now cost about the same as a solid chicken kebab, and yeah, I’m talking the luxury version with extra sauce and a coke.
  • In Eastern Europe and CIS countries (like Ukraine or Kazakhstan): Prices are down by 32%.

  • Across Latin America: You’ll see a price drop of about 28%.

  • In South Asia (including India and Pakistan)I've reduced it by 23% .

A huge thank you to everyone who helped me figure this out. Admittedly I’ve made some of these calls based on gut feeling, so if your local experience tells you something else, hit me up and share your perspective.
