GOG's exchange rates appear to have changed, with GBP rising against the dollar - Vampire: the Masquerade - Bloodlines now costs £13.69 when it used to cost £14.19, for instance, and I think $5.99 games have decreased from £4.19 to £4.09 (they may have been £4.29). Have other currencies changed too?

Oops, sorry. :(

From MaGog's logs for 5 May:

However, the price remained $16.99 in practically every other region (except US and CA).

So resulting price scheme is:
* Regional price for Subterrain is $16.99 instead of $14.99 in AU, NZ, regDE, regIT, DK, MC, NL, NO, SE, CH, GB, regCZ, PL, regRO, regRS, regCN
* Regional price for Subterrain is $7.99 instead of $14.99 in regAR, CL, CO, MX, PE, BR
* Regional price for Subterrain is $5.18 instead of $14.99 in RU, UA, regUZ



The report of the conversion rate changes will appear later today (or tomorrow, depending on where you live).

I don't follow - was it a bug that got a bugged fix? Or do the conversion rate changes have anything to do with this?

My guess is that it was a bug that was then fixed with another bug.

From MaGog's logs for 5 May:

Another conversion rate change; another bagload of regional USD price adjustments. See attached files (change jpg to txt) for the gory details.

Highlights:
- Overall, the USD prices of regionally priced games have increased in AU/CA/CH/CZ/DE/DK/GB/IT/MC/NL/NO/NZ/PL/RO/RS/RU/SE/UA/UZ

Devs explanation about price change.

Or it got the full regional pricing treatment, adding the 16.99 price for that, and then they remembered to lower it back for US/CA. Because the economic realities of the whole rest of the world are better, ya know?
Ah. Doesn't explain the lowering for US/CA though. Guess this may be the bug then?

Can't see the pictures . Check them .

"See attached files (change jpg to txt) for the gory details."

Guess I was right about the recent update causing the increase. Still doesn't explain why the price went back to $14.99 in the US and CA regions, though.

CA has a raging wildfire and therefore deserves the lower price.
US has a raging trump and therefore deserves the lower price.

Thanks .

i suspect that cd projects bug creation department is a real thing and gog has its own :)
