But think with me: Let's suppose you are american and makes US$ 1500 monthly. Is it too much? I don't think so. Anyways, now, let's suppose I am brazilian and make R$ 1500 (brazilian currency) monthly. Now, that is already twice what most of people here make monthly.Dude, that's not how currency exchanges work. You pay 35,85 because the Brazilin dollar is only worth 28 cents. By paying 35,85 you are paying the same as an American.
Alright. Now you want to purchase a em$ 1000 item. It costs something like US$19. You have left US$ 1481. Now, the same example for me, and i will have left R$ 1430. But you do not buy only one 1000 em$ item.
Difference is: if you are american or from somewhere with a powerful currency, the game is relatively cheap, because of your economy. If you are from other countries the game becomes expensive and you get bored of having the same old stuff and beeing unable to buy the new items.
Problem is: we make money in REAIS (brazilian currency) and spend it in US$ which is over three and half times our money. Americans make money in US$ and spend it in US$. So there is no loss.
Get it?
