No, I get ridiculed by people for buying Android apps, IN MY OFFICE. People look at me as if I am literally throwing money in the wind when I mention that I have purchased Poweramp, or have purchased a wonderful live wallpaper called Minima, or have purchased a number of games like Vector. All these cost less than a meal for one at kfc, or cost less than a movie ticket, but they look at me as if I am some animal.

Imagine what would happen to college students.

Ow don't get me started on that. I literally now try to support good devs by purchasing their software. And I get looks frm some people like I committed a crime or something

[MENTION=295561]aniketdawn.89[/MENTION] [MENTION=57860]thetechfreak[/MENTION] I was highlighting the number of in CIS countries compared to here. There is a decent chance that all those Dota 2 players play other games as well. Its almost like for every gamer here, there are about 30 gamers in CIS countries. Any game publisher would be a fool to ignore that market.

Compare that to here, people still see gaming as something for children. Your parents frown upon you if you play games at an older age. Hell, they discourage gaming even when you are younger. Because of this, many people lose interest in gaming as they get older and therefore, the market remains smaller.

I hope this changes in the next generation.

Since piracy was being talked about

Microsoft can remotely disable pirated games, if you're running them on Windows 10 – Tech2

This is why people pirate windows 10

One thing that is good about it is that if MS can detect fake hardware then it will be an end to all the fake computer hardware selling in India like fake X360 controllers

Prolly something like gmg. Not really regional pricing but at least you don't have to pay the currency conversion anymore.
