Whatever the case, be careful with changing the price of subscription tokens, lest we get people buying sub tokens from Russians to get a cheaper subscription in countries where most people do have plenty of money.

Just dont change it. If you dont have the money then so be it. Even if you live in Germany where people earn a lot of money, if you are a student or going to school you dont have the money for it.

Why not change it?
Devs might earn more money as more people can afford the subscription .

As stated above it will lead to massive abuses probably. And also its unfair if you think about other countries.

how is it unfair?

someone earn 100000 dollars in his country and the price is like a fart from him

someone from russia earns 10 dollars and the price is 7/10 of what he earns

its unfair as it is now

a lot of servies offer discount for russians etc

and considering how big the slav playerbase is

its a good business move

As said before its not just about russia. There are a lot of poor countries and just because you are from a rich country doesn't mean you are rich.

Giving discount to Russians is fine, the problem is everybody else will start demanding discounts. And deciding who gets it and who doesn't is a can of worms.

Give russians discount. Ignore people that have different opinions.
Eventually they will get tired of complaining.
