I pay about 18 Canadian Dollars a month and I don't complain. If you can't afford it, then you don't deserve to play. Simple as that. It's a privilege not a right, just be happy you've got the chance?
Interesting position... I wonder how it will change if one day without any info price change to 36...
I can't speak for @Barta057 (and frankly I think it's rude of him to say "If you can't afford it, then you don't deserve to play", but luckily you can now play without having to pay the sub anyway), but if we suddenly had massive inflation and the Canadian dollar tanked badly so that $36 CAD was the equivalent of $15 USD, then I'd fully expect that the monthly sub price would go up to $36 CAD. If your country's currency takes a nose-dive, you're going to have to pay more for things on the global market. It's pretty much a given.I pay about 18 Canadian Dollars a month and I don't complain.

No, if I could not afford it then *** on me. I've lost the right to play. People don't just get whatever they want because they want it.
You make sacrifices in life, it sucks, and then you die. You don't get to *** and whine cause everything doesn't go your way.

The cost of administering locked regions may mean that it's not worth it for ZOS to artificially reduce the price for Russians (even though for other games from other developers it may be worth it). They may be better off losing a bunch of Russian customers. Without any data to base an analysis on, there's no way for you and I to know.I can't speak for @Barta057 (and frankly I think it's rude of him to say "If you can't afford it, then you don't deserve to play", but luckily you can now play without having to pay the sub anyway), but if we suddenly had massive inflation and the Canadian dollar tanked badly so that $36 CAD was the equivalent of $15 USD, then I'd fully expect that the monthly sub price would go up to $36 CAD.

Agree, but there exist solutions that bring win to both sides, locked regions (like Steam)etc
With this price right now demand for product in that region will be veeery small, and that bad for Zos too.

(Personally, I'm willing to pay, and 2,000 rubles and 5,000 rubles for excellent service), this price will scare away new players. And compared to other MMO on the Russian market, the game looks less attractive. Although this is a terrific game. Just a bad business decision.

Don't be subscriber if you can't pay, why ZOS should decrease something just cuz some crap game with 2k online players (someone post L2 screenshot of RUoff there) cost 2RUB with sub? And since 15$ are 1kRUB, then u must pay it since its equivalent to products to all around the world, ask your government/workplace to rise money for your work, not ZOS to decrease it for YOU.

WE WILL PAY MONEY FOR YOU TO KEEP YOU WITH US AND PLAY!!!1" thats what you expect? Really, no one care, there are many other players from all around the world, France\England\Germany\Poland\China\India\Australia and so on, they are great people with who we enjoy to play.

else you must be happy that this game services still available in Russia, so say to ZOS your "spaseebo".
I thought I still will pay subscription but with new price it's just stupid. And I don't think that $15 and 1000₽ is really equal in USA/Europe and Russia.
If were not b2p, it would make me leave game. Sad...
And I know that most of russian community agree with me.

How many hours do you have to work for the monthly sub in Russia?
For me I have to work about 30 mins to make the 12 dollar for a month sub, I work as a IT consultant. I guess it would be about the same in the US if you have decent job. Maybe 2 hours if you work at Mcdonalds in the US.

Stupid? Russian economy and politics maybe. The price is just a reflection of that. Google it. 15 usd is 925 rub. Close enough.
