Hi, i dont know where to post this and if anyone would care but in recently a tax on violent videogames has been approved and i would like to know whats Steam´s stance on this and if there is a possibility that they could ignore this. Seems like a lot to ask for but i dont want to pay a lot more than i expected for GTA 6. In Mexico we got videogames taxes before GTA 6. FML, OMG, SMH. Thank you

I would not think Mr Newell can break your countries laws.

You will pay the tax

I'm always fascinated by the bravado and unearned confidence. Seems more likely you'll just put your consumer skills into practice and buy games on sale and get used to paying a bit extra for them.

Kind of like taxing smokes and alcohol.

I guess just as with the above, taxes are unpopular but still more popular than prohibition.
