This is disturbingly funny and sad at the same time.

Would recommend you get the game soon as you can if you wan't it since the developers will close the pledges soon.

Discussion about GOG adding different currency ending up in forcing many publisher to make regional prices for their games.
Why do you think that they're forced?

Existing distribution contracts might possibly force regional pricing now vs. when games were only offered in U.S. dollars. Personally, I think forced is too strong a word as anything can be renegotiated,
While I have generally believed regional pricing might be necessary on GoG, I have to admit to be rather dismayed that a game now has regional pricing where 1 dollar = 1 euro. That flies in the face on what was promised.

What I meant to say is that the currency changes may have triggered a conflict with other contracts the software distributors may have in various regions. When GoG was just in U.S. dollars, they may not have been considered a regional distributor or may have fallen under an exemption of some sort. As soon as they provided games in the same currency, this may have triggered clauses in other contracts regarding consistent pricing in a given region with promises not to undercut.
