No it is not automated. :)

Depends on your region too, in some places salaries are very low in USD equivalent. But yes $4 USD is pretty cheap.

Steam has regional pricing, so for most regions it should roughly be the same value:

So for US standards (or EU, my region) it's way too cheap and will be considered a trash game because it's got a trash price. Ironic, isn't it?

Planning to pick it up though, thanks for putting this on my radar. Would love to see some context or a description next time, if that isn't too much trouble. I've seen you post a lot!

I think I am going to stick to the current mini-description format unless it's a game I've already played before (and enjoy). :)

In my country sometimes games are notably cheaper than in EU/North America.

You mean the title? I thought it was automated because often bots only post titles and a link, and no body. You do whatever works for you though, I ain't bothered.
