Buying Video Games

It's incredible how many hoops we have to jump through to get our hands on a Steam or Origin purchase. To buy a video game, we have to do things such as bKashing merchants on Facebook stores who charge nearly Tk. 90-100 per USD, to begging our friends abroad to buy the game. 

While our neighbouring country India supports Origin sales, we are left with nothing.  With a Dota community boasting 4000+ members, a LoL community with nearly 3000 members, Counter-Strike players nearing 4000 members and FIFA players summing up to a whopping 16,000+ players, I am sure there are enough transactions to go around. 

When do we get to buy our vidya directly, then?
