minus-squareRedevenlink10•edit-211 months agoAlso missing Steams regional pricing, which would be very hard to guesstimate but for reference in the LATAM/MENA regions, it’s like $13. They still made a shitton of money mind you but yeah, a bit lower than estimated here. EDIT: Also in some countries, the Xbox/MS price was like $1 so again, numbers could be lower.
minus-square@[email protected]Mlinkfedilink1•11 months agoGame pass is routinely $1 for three months. You just keep cancelling and waiting a month before you can get the $1 deal again. Or just alternate between two accounts every three months, and you’re paying a grand total of $4/year.
