Go direct to IS my friend, when EU Servers go live you will receive what you've bought direct.

If only the tax was reasonable.I would say to wait a bit maybe they will fix eu store this month so you dont have to pay 40$ to 100$ in tax.

Yeah the VAT part sucks. I wonder if we can get a refund for the VAT after the account is moved to EU...

I would like to know this as well. I don't mind giving my hard-earned money but not to taxes

Weren't we going to get an update on the EU store?

I'm pretty sure that's up to the my.com or w/e to determine that and not Intrepid.

There is potential for a new EU publisher as my.com site hasn't been working for a few days now. Steven said he will update us on the topic.

I just called the Danish tax authorities, and as a private person, there's nothing we can do about the VAT apparently, even if the account is moved to the EU publisher. I am guessing the rules are similar for other EU countries, but feel free to check of course. So it's +25% for all packages for me

I've paid VAT on some of my purchases since xsolla took over. Fortunately I am UK. If the EU want to tax me for using an EU Server then I would expect a UK Server.

I would refuse to pay 2 lots of VAT.

I would imagine that these things don't take 15 minutes to solve, he said he'll update us so I'm sure he will when things are settled.

People warned about my.com but Steven didn't listen and now paying the price for it. There are lot of new EU players interested in AoC and want to pre-order but they can't since my.com site does not work. A publisher who is unable to sell the game. Can it get worse than this?

I hope Steven finds new publisher for EU soon...

Paradox Gaming said that it wasnt theat steven didnt want another publisher for EU but all the others wanted Creative rights to the game.

I wonder if they thought of Steam as a publisher?
I know Amazon uses Steam to publish new world but i also know that Steam takes a 35% cut of each purchase. So i can see why Devs are reculant to to use steam.
On the other hand you have 1 publisher that can marked world wide and has a massive player base.

Correct me if I'm wrong but isn't steam just a platform to sell your game on but the hosting is still done by the publisher aka a My.games or intrepid themselves?

I think their heart was in the right place when selecting a publisher (creative control), hopefully they find a new publisher soon.

You have to pay the EU VAT if you live in the EU. But the EU does not actually get the money, the member states get it. The EU only forces the member states to all raise such a tax in the same given rate bracket so they do not unfairly compete against one another by tax dumping.
Whether you have to pay it or not depends on where you (the consumer) lives, not where the service/good is bought from. So changing the publisher would not change anything. The only thing you can do is move outside the EU. And then even your new country could also raise such a tax. Many countries do. However many also not not apply them to s-services as the EU member states do.

Time to get out of this thread

, reading about the EU and taxes ... two things that irritate me

But on a serious note, I am curious about what the news will be. If it is My.games that is not an issue for me as long as we get the exact same service as the US.

Hehe, yes I got a little overboard.

We can expect an update with the end of the month
