For PS4 and PS5 you can buy it for like 230 BRL which with USA taxes would mean 36 USD for us so it is good price.

I guess, that's still pretty expensive though. And I don't have a PS4 or PS5. Usually games get cheaper localized prices on PC which is where I can play it, but nah we're doing full-blown R$300, never mind Denuvo DRM. I spent all my money on the other R$300 release earlier this month, and I definitely don't regret it, but this just sucks. Then again, I knew this was gonna happen months in advance, so I had time to try to become rich.

I do understand your point, and yes for Brazilian reality 300 per game is quite expensive, although physical owners are buying and reselling like 2 weeks later when they finish for like 80% the new price and if you wait those 2 weeks, you can buy used, play and resell without almost paying anything. Dunno if Switch have a version or how much would end up costing, but yes PC all digital won't have that use.

I just bought miles morales for 100, the guy that sold me had bought it couples week earlier for 120.

Problem with localizing prices is that the games now are region free, so if they put the price much lower in a country that can feed the grey market.
