Would you spend 445$ for 2K PLAT?

[Waug]

Different Countries have Different PPP (Purchasing power parity)

For this reason [In the very simplified term : Economic differences] in the different countries plat price varies according to that, and some countries it literally pretty high. [Note PPP is not currency conversion rate]

For example USA vs India PPP is nearly 17 [2015] Source [check country wise ppp] : http://data.worldbank.org/indicator/PA.NUS.PPP
It's just for rough estimate. If we multiply just by 5 [not by 17] 445$ [not as dollar, just for a concept] for 2k plat such high price would not let the game flourish in those countries for premium players [potential plat buyers]

It's not a new concept at all that game price/IAP rates varies and different countries get that at discounted prices. I'd provide some steam game data for this but to show different prices for different region, mods may not feel good about another game is being promoted and it's not about PC/console many many android games do this as I noticed.

As said, if it's looks hard to implement in PL, STS should consider this to implement in the newer/upcoming games
