> The Factorio price in Russia has long been £7.70 (₽520). However, on July 14, the price rose suddenly to £147.99 (₽10,000). This price increase came without any notice or acknowledgement from Wube Software.
Interestingly, they have recently (maybe on the same day?) also increased the price in the UK from £21.00 to £25.00, and also without any notice or acknowledgement... [1]
I find this surprising, coming from a company that takes particular pride in not running sales, and where their rationale for this is that they don't want different people to pay different prices for the same game [2, as I commented on another HN discussion here]
