Any idea what was it before?
 
So now steam will be expensive than physical codes ? Like ubi games are 1799 same on steam so will tax now come on 1799. Digital will go expensive then :(
 
@Jc36 Is it mentioned anywhere it was 0% ?
Could be that publishers bear a part of the raise and keep the games at a slightly higher price.
It is only mentioned they will be setting VAT or sales tax at 15%. It doesn't mention the prices will rise. Lets wait and watch.
Still they should hold a sale this weekend :D
 
Check your Steam receipts. The tax/vat/st is always mentioned. There are no extra taxes currently. You can compare it with a receipt from EU. Whether the prices will rise or not depends on the publisher. Some might take a hit and adjust accordingly, some will just pass it on to the customers.
 
I don't think that they have even Asian servers, forget sg or India
Otherwise i would have bought bf1 @50% off


There are middle eastern servers, UAE servers, look for them after selecting Asia as your region in the server browser.

The pings are very good 45-60ms, but I noticed the other players have horrible pings which put you at a massive disadvantage.
