Since last year, shortly after Putin started his barbarian invasion of Ukraine, I have changed the price in the Ukraine region as low as possible. And I have been trying to keep it as low as possible since then.
However, today Valve announced their updated policy on pricing.
https://steamcommunity.com/groups/steamworks/announcements/detail/3700310527377680732
Basically, they require me to increase the price in the Ukraine region from UAH20 to UAH26 in accordance with their new minimums price policy.

Previously, I mentioned I will try to keep the price in Ukraine unchanged all the way till the war ends. But, Valve's new policy is now making that impossible. I'll have to comply with that in our scheduled price increase in September.
I am very sorry. It's not something that I can control. But, I will continue to support Ukraine in other ways that I still can for as long as it takes.
For example, the free demo version with almost all the major content of the game will still be available all the way till the war ends. (Unless Valve decides to change their policy about demos as well.)
Please don't blame Valve. I don't think they changed their policy just to undermine my efforts to support Ukraine.
Слава Украине!
自去年开始，普京发动对乌克兰的入侵以后不久，我就把游戏在乌克兰地区的价格降低到了Steam所允许的极低的价格。并一直保持如此。
但是，今天G胖宣布了提高对低价区价格的要求
https://steamcommunity.com/groups/steamworks/announcements/detail/3700310527377680732
基本上，他们要求我必须把乌克兰地区的售价从20提高到26从而满足他们的最低售价政策。

此前，我提到会保持乌克兰地区的低价直到战争结束。但是，G胖的新正常导致那无法延续。所以，在9月份的游戏计划涨价时，我必须把游戏在乌克兰区的定价更新到G胖最新的最低定价。
对此，我非常遗憾。这是属于我目前无法控制的情况。但是，在那些我依然能够掌控的地方，我依然会保持全面对乌克兰的支持，直到这场战争的终点。
比如：Steam上那个包括了游戏基本上所有主要内容的Demo版本，会在战争结束前一直存在。（除非G胖又整出什么针对Demo的政策变化。）
当然，请勿责怪G胖，他应该不是为了针对我对乌克兰的支持而改变政策的。
Слава Украине!
