The fan of economics in me feels this is an entirely rational decision and I agree with the assessments upstream in the thread re: this being entirely fair w.r.t. currency values. I'm used to this rollercoaster being in Canada, although it's generally limited to future releases (and those releases never subsequently drop in price when the CAD climbs, so it goes both ways).
The fan of gaming in me feels like this is a dumb move that's going to alienate a fickle community, especially considering many of their ardent supporters are already in a love-hate relationship with Paradox.
I'll be waiting on EU4/HoI4 for a while now, I'd wager.
