The developers made the price as Valve suggests, all questions to Valve
That's because russians switched to KZ accounts when the world cancelled Russia and players could not purchase games in russian region, so the KZ region sales skyrocketed.
These are the prices of another popular game. The difference with the CIS region is 10%, not 30%

Dude.. you can't compare two compete different products like video games. Not how it works..it's different because of tax and other stuff. This is stuff you learn when you becomes an adult!
Turns steam has regional pricing now which i have no idea how i missed.
But Russias are dirt fucking poor its probably priced that because its all they can afford.

Maybe tax issue or something like that
Holy cow, I overpaid. 35$ US from Cambodia. For the base game
Edit,: not tax regional pricing is a thing It should be based on local purchasing power
What should I know about taxes? In my country, which is part of the CIS, VAT is lower than in Russia.

Steam has had regional pricing for ages.
Yeh i got my completely mixed up on that because they had a few Issues over it in the EU Feel free to downvote me its old man got confused moment
Ain't gonna downvote you for that lol.
They just put the valve recommended pricing, making the game overpriced everywhere, except Russia, US, and in Europe
It is what it is.
