How much is a Big Mac meal in Poland?
Big Mac menu is around 24 PLN. 14 isnjust for a big Mac sandwich.
Minimum salary is something like 2000pln. While renting small flat in capital city cost around 2000/monthly as well.
70 PLN is a meal in fair restaurant for one person.

Yes, other times they had offered discounts after as much or even less time from the release of the DLC that the time passed since the release of Iberia.

Although we had to go way back in time and with a way much smaller SCS as a company to see them not releasing a map DLC for ETS2 in one year. In other words, not releasing in a whole year what it is their absolutely main source of annual income. That has a cost for the company, a HUGE cost for sure; that they will have to recover somehow.

I buy DLCs at release just because I only play ETS2 and ATS, compared to my monthly salary? they are expensive because literally Iberia DLC at release costs 10% of my monthly salary, a Big Mac on the other hand is like 1/8 the price of Iberia for me!

This is my choice, and it doesn't mean that everyone who wants to wait for a discount is greedy!

Interesting, a quick drive through meal for my wife and I costs about twice as much as a map DLC. 🤔

ETS 2 map DLCs here are CAD $19.99(except Going East,which is CAD $13.99).And for some unknown reason,Vive La France costs CAD $21.99.
ATS map DLCs are CAD $12.99.

In DK the games are just pretty cheap even if I buy on release

Iberia was something like ~135 DKK at relase date
To compare: Wonder Woman 1984 UHD: 300 DKK
Big Mac Menu 70 - 80 DKK
T-bone Steak for home cooking: 300 - 350 gr is 120 DKK

In my third world country the launch prices of ATS maps are very similar to those in Denmark xD (that's the only thing they are alike lol) they are the same as 2 big macs ($26.500 cop) = $6.8 USD

I understand that, but majority of players already bought it, so regular and full income passed. Now only those who hesitate or are undecided will buy it in the future (or not buy it). Let's say, 20% discount would encourage me to buy Iberia now. Can I wait and play another months without it? Sure I can.
