【PC游戏】(外网翻译)这回轮到老外转到中国区薅羊毛了?-第0张

阿区和土区即将走到头,我们该怎么买到便宜的游戏?


最新消息:从11月20号开始,新的美元定价将在阿根廷区和土耳其区实行。

阿区和土区的steam定价将采用美元,同时拉丁美洲和中东|北非等25个国家和地区也将实行新的定价。

从11月20日开始,steam将更改在阿根廷和土耳其的销售货币为美元。我们将通过两个新的区域定价来实现这一举措:拉丁美洲 - 美元(包括阿根廷)和中东|北非 - 美元(包括土耳其)。在这两个定价区域中的某些国家/地区的游戏定价可能会上涨,也可能会下降,具体取决于此次更改之前 Steam 上游戏的定价方式。与所有的steam定价策略一样,游戏开发者们可以自行决定在steam上售卖的游戏价格。 


这是由steam官方作出的决定,而我们对此无能为力。

这告诉我们一件事,阿区和土区的低价游戏已经成为了过去。

我们需要找到新的方法来继续以更低的价格来支持正版的steam游戏!


我们现在有了新的选择——CHINA!!


steam中国区一直是steam上相对低价的销售区域。和美国区相比,其大部分的游戏定价都是五折甚至三折的价格,这还不包括steam打折时的情况。同时,中国区的定价与如阿区土区这些低价区相比,相差并不大。因此,11月20号后的价格调整后,中国区依旧是低价区最有性价比的区域。(原文说的是leader in low-price regions)


首先,我们要解除一个误会。


许多人认为,如果要享受中国区的steam定价,我们必须要使用中国版的steam平台。不不,你真的误会了。你们错误印象中的中国版本的steam平台叫做“蒸汽平台”,它长这样:

但是,我告诉你,我的朋友,这就是依托答辩,仅有很少数量的steam游戏,而且社区什么都没有。并且,几乎90%的steam功能都是不可用的,只是用来遵守政府规定。

因此,在中国没有一个人使用这个平台。steam有真正的中国区,长这个样子:

这和我们全球的玩家使用的版本是一样的!


中国区的steam定价


由于阿根廷、土耳其等低价地区的涨价热潮从过去一年就开始了,在Steam每年一次的大规模季节性促销之后,阿区和土区的部分游戏纷纷涨价,甚至有一些还大涨特涨!

但是,中国区的steam定价非常稳定,并且只有非常少的游戏进行了涨价。你不需要担心自己跨中国区是白费力气的。


选择中国区的另一个理由


今年,特别是5月底,我们阿区和土区的用户遭受了历史以来最大的遣返潮。最常见的就是在支付的时候显示错误,然后就被遣返了,无论你是否使用了魔法。我们依然不清楚触发遣返的因素。这就像是有一个恶魔之眼在注视着你的steam账号。


但是,这个问题不会在中国区发生。(译者:后来我们知道,许多阿土的游子回不来了)到目前为止,我从来没有听说过任何用户从中国区被遣返回来的案例。(你很快就会听说了)


去享受steam中国区的价格吧!


Argentina and Türkiye are about to leave us, How do we continue to get cheap games?


latest news

New USD Pricing For Argentina and Turkey beginning November 20th.


The Steam store in Argentina and Turkey will start using USD, along with new regional prices for LATAM and Middle East/North Africa for 25 additional countries/ territories.

Starting on November 20th, Steam will change the currency used for sales in Argentina and Turkey to USD. We are implementing this with two new pricing regions: LATAM - USD (which includes Argentina) and MENA - USD (which includes Turkey). Some countries/territories in the list below may see pricing increase and others may see pricing decrease depending on how games were priced on Steam prior to this change. As with all Steam pricing, game developers choose the price they want to sell their game on Steam. See below for a list of all countries/territories included in these new pricing regions.


This is a decision made by the steam support team and there is nothing we can do about it.

This tells us that Argentina and Turkey’s cheap game is a thing of the past,

We should find new ways to continue supporting genuine Steam games at a lower cost!


We may still have a good choice now - China!


The Chinese region of Steam has always been a relatively low-cost region. The price of most games is one-half or even one-third of that in the US dollar region, and this does not include the price during discounts. At the same time, China’s pricing is not much different from that in some low-price regions such as Argentina and Turkey. Therefore, after the pricing change on November 20, China is still the leader in low-price regions.


Let me first explain a misunderstanding


Many people believe that if you want to enjoy Steam games at Chinese prices, you need to use the Chinese version of the Steam platform. No, no, you misunderstood. The Chinese version of the steam platform you mentioned is called "Steam Platform", and it looks like this:

But, I'm telling you, my friend, he is a piece of shit, with a small number of games and a community with nothing. Almost 90% of the features on Steam are unusable, just to comply with government regulations. Therefore, no one uses it in China, and Steam has a real Chinese region, which looks like this:


It is no different from steam in other countries around the world!


Steam pricing in China


As the boom in price increases in low-price areas such as Argentina and Turkey has begun in the past year, after the annual large-scale seasonal promotions on Steam, games in Argentina and Turkey have been increasing in price one after another, and some have even increased dramatically!


But, game prices in China are very stable, and there are very few games that have increased in price. You don’t have to worry about the price you paid being broken!


Another reason to choose China


This year, especially at the end of May this year, our Steam Argentina Turkey region ushered in the largest repatriation event in history. The most common thing is that the payment using the steam wallet fails, and then you go home, whether you use it or not ***. We still don’t know how this situation is triggered. It is like a devil’s eye, watching every move of your steam account.


But, this problem will not occur in the Steam China region. So far, I have not heard of any case indicating that the Steam account region recovery will occur in China. You can enjoy the Chinese game prices.
