Here in Europe they're forced to show the lowest price of the last 30 days and I was looking at some games in GoG and for several interesting games their Black Friday "discounted" price is €15 whilst the lowest price in the last 30 days is €10.
So the Black Friday "discount" is in fact 50% more expensive than the previous time that game had a "discount" which happenned not even that long ago.
That's regionally specific then, because they sure as hell don't do that where i live (EU member). They have to compare with non-sale price within a month or something, so it's complete bullshit here because they artificially inflate prices prior to black Friday "sales".
I'm in Canada and I see it.
Canada is my favorite member of the EU
I wish we were part of the EU
