Hero of the Swarm!

Attack of the Earthlings is now available, 10% off until March 22, 2 pm UTC.
Alien invaders are upon you! With their strange-looking machines, constant hunger for resources and a disturbing lack of additional limbs. Well you and and your fellow Swarmers won't stand for it! Use stealth and turn-based aggression to consume the disgusting humans and convert them into handsome soldiers of the Swarm. It's your duty as the loving, caring Matriarch of this proud species.

The pricing for this game strikes me as odd... Here in regIT, it's listed as costing 19.99 EUR / 23.64 USD (full price), and I'm not getting any Fair Price Package. Does this mean that its US base price is indeed $23.64 USD? Or is it actually priced $19.99 there and someone forgot to activate the FPP for the above base regions?

I would suggest opening a ticket and pointing that out.

One of the other new releases had the same issue.

What price do you see? If it's $19.99 I'll do it, as it'd be an obvious error. If you do see $23.64, then maybe that's the intended price...

Are you talking about FoxTail? If so, that wasn't exaclyt the same issue: with that game I get a FPP if I buy it in USD, but I don't if I buy it in EUR. I'll mention that one as well in the support ticket.

No I mean they messed up the regional pricing on one of the other new releases within the last week. A blue came to the forums and said so.

Found it. It was the Kerbal DLC:

So it's actually discounted in the Eurozone! No wonder I don't see any FPP... :P

So, it's basically an X-Com parody?

Kinda disappointed that Monstrum didn't show up but I guess there's a reason somewhere.

Riekopo: I just want to say that I think it's great that a forum thread is automatically made for new announcements like this. It makes the community better.
Forums are the right way to do a wide variety of things. They're ideal for blogs, news, and even bug tracking. I use SMF at forum.coincompendium.com for all of those things. I have contacted GOG to persuade them to fully embrace forums as the solution to everything, but I don't think it went very far past the ordinary support people. Life is so much easier and better when you only have 1 platform to maintain and invest in.

SMF is BSD-licensed, so GOG could take it and chop it up to make it do whatever proprietary thing they want it to do. For myself, I try to keep it as plain as possible, but GOG's needs go far enough I bet they will want to heavily customize it.
