Found this neat trick to get EFT for about half price.

Using a Russian VPN purchase the game through their website (I used PayPal as payment method)
Follow the website instructions to download the game launcher.
Connect to the Russian VPN (system VPN not web browser VPN - I use SurfShark) and log into the launcher
Disconnect the VPN.
Switch the server to OCE.
Download the game in the launcher.
Play escape from tarkov and die alot.

Not a bargain but a Redditor is doing a lucky draw Christmas giveaway of this game!

Be careful buying a Russian version of the game, as it is geo-locked. EU or US keys will work on our servers.

EDIT: WARNING! Purchases are locked to the specific geographic region the purchase was made from. The game can only be launched if your current region is the same where the purchase was made. The only exception is Europe — purchases made in this region will be available to launch anywhere around the world. Your current region is: Other.

  This right here. This is a terrible bargain as you're basically forcing people to play on non-AU servers.

    My understanding is that you just need the VPN on to log into the launcher. I am able to switch the server after log in. I've been playing all night on OCE servers just fine 🙂

There will be a sale soon as well, so wait for that first before you buy with the VPN method. Also to note, you may have to upgrade to the EU version after purchasing to actually play.
