Hi i would like to you consider a new payment options options for Poland and other non euro currency countries.
E.G.
In Poland most of people earn about 2000 PLN = about 400 EURO while in other countries such as Germany,France 2000-3000 EURO. Founders pack cost 200 EURO this is a half Polish people earnings while for other EU countries its about 1/10 or less.
In addition, the average wage in Poland is 4000 PLN = 1000 EURO (At the same time, most people do not earn enough)
However, in Germany - 5000 EURO / France - 4800 EURO / Even Greeks earns about 2000 EURO.
It would like you to consider the payment for poorer countries with payment in PLN and other currecny. We would really like to donate this game but this is mostly impossible to us because of such high price, and imo you can earn much more money if you give these countries a better position to donate.

Anyhow, I don't think that your average amount earned will ever really change the price of an ONLINE game platform. It's a little bit of a pity for some countries. But alas.
Also, for the record.. The Hero of the North founder pack would be aprox. 640.08 zloty for you.
Are you freaking kidding me? I'm german, and can only dream of such wages, as can everyone else I know. I am unsure where you're pulling these numbers from but unless you're in the medical field or a manager you certainly do not earn such a wage over here.
If you've pulled those figures from the average numbers than that's a logical fault. On one side you have people living off social services of about €500 and on the other end of the spectrum you have managers earning €20.000 and more per month. The latter will screw up the average number.
€5000 average wage over here, LOL! I WISH!!!!
No we dont earn 2000 euro here in Greece.
My family barely earns 200 a month and with that we must live for the next 1-2 months including paying bills.
Please dont spread false information.
Thing is, though... this is how capitalism works, love it or leave it. I don't think it's the job of game companies to try and fix this.

I would like that administration spoke to whether or not they want to take into account the option.
Then please learn that average numbers never reflect what's actually happening. To explain it to you:
Well, we all learned in school how to calculate an average: You take all the values you're averaging, add them up, and divide them by the number of values. This is fine if what you're trying to average is pretty uniform -- the average of 1, 2, 3, 4, and 5 is 3, right there in the middle. The problem is that averages are absolutely useless if a minority of numbers are unusually high -- the average of 1, 2, 3, 4, and 40 is 10, which doesn't help anybody know jack**** about anything.
And that's the problem with the "average income" statistic -- a few rich people are skewing the **** out of the number. If you're earning less than the average income, it's not because your job is HAMSTER you, it's because you live in the same country as Bill Gates and Mark Zuckerberg and whatever their equivalent is in other countries.
That's why most reputable sources who try to figure out wealth distribution use the median income, not the average.
In short your arguments to make the prices lower are faulty, and as such have a chance of zero to have any impact on prices.
Look if you dont have money to play a game (and yes the preorder price at 200€ is a scam still) you should not be here at all.
Go play facebook games or indie games.
