@lucifargundam what you have experienced is a well known pathology of proprietary software industry called region locking. Since the software objectively costs nothing, the price is set on a "how much have you got" basis, as a result you are likely to find the same products sold for half the price or less in some countries like russia, where people are less inclined to pay for them, since pirvacy is more prevalent and certain pirate websites offer better user experience and tech support for local community that something like steam. And of course we can't have you buy games in russia for half the price and send them to your friends in less fortunate countries like USA, that would mean that our enormous returns on miniscule investments will be slightly diminished.
