Oh, my

by ZackDark , Not behind you. NO! Don't look., Monday, March 25, 2013, 19:40 (4043 days ago) @ Cody Miller

I just realized: what if Destiny is region-locked in the kinds of SW: The Old Republic?

In it, I, from a Brazilian IP, could not connect to the American server, which completely left me out of the Beta, even after I explicitly told them I lived in Brazil. If Destiny has something like it, I wouldn't be able to play with any of you guys, which would definitely greatly reduce the worth of the game to me.

Would anyone be so kind as to ask them if it works like this (far more eloquently than I ever could) in the next Mail Sack?
