They're generally not priced down.
European countries get more expensive versions of software because the price is often converted into the same amount in euros, which ignores the fact the euro is priced higher than the US dollar. And it's not about VAT either - often you pay for VAT outside of the marked price anyway.

Steam game prices are all over the map for US/EU/UK (often vast differences, but no clear "winner"), but are very often cheaper in e.g. Russia (which is why Steam stopped people from outside Russia buying steam games there).
