    If you would like to know i was force to reformat what i had first wrote due to being 500 character over the limit. The Korea was an example of a country that was originally going to have access to the game but due to a law didn't end up having it and is locked from buying or connecting. A major reason that they are blocking the sale to south east Asia is to prevent Chinese citizens from playing on non Chinese server. For several laws pertaining to morals and gaming laws that have been imposed.
    Also the term Geo-blocking is normally only used in terms of media not in terms of regional sales. This is region locking of game accounts to Eu, NA, JP,and CN. If you are outside the official support area's you will have to wait for physical copies of the game to be imported. Digital goods are still not a right to you in any way you look at it. If that import cost more that is the cost of bring that product to your region there is overhead in shipping and licensing.

    Also for you attempting to quote me as saying Geo blocking i never said such words. Importing a Game 10 years ago is along the same line as what is happening now.

    Source please. You still have not mentioned a single country in the south-east Asia area as an example but I know geography is hard for Americans. I'll make this easy for you because you keep on throwing a dart on a map of the world and picking a country as irrelevant as the last: What exactly in Singapore law is the issue here? Saying singapore can't have the game because of China is about as geographically relevant as saying that the United States can't have something because of Panama.

    You are wrong.

    What do you have to say to all people in this thread saying that they are buying from the NA online store no problem?

    You know if you don't know what you're talking about the smart thing is to say you don't know what you're talking about and not paint yourself into a corner.

    Oh my gosh. This only proves you have no idea what you are talking about.

    SEA is not part of China and China is also not a part of SEA. The only country with a Chinese majority is Singapore and their population is very small compared to other SEA countries. And there is absolutely no such "moral and gaming" laws that you mention besides laws on online gambling. Please know what you are talking about before spouting nonsense.

    The more you post the more I realize you have no idea whats going on. So, please don't embarrass yourself further and stop.

    I'm not calling China south east Asia you dimwit. Southeast asia is tiawan, singapore, indo, philo, viet, mianmar formally know as berma.
    and yet im not going to take the time to go and spell them correctly. If you had read the thread for more then just when i popped in you would
    know this is only an issue when ordering from the EU vendors for people that have account linked to EU account. Also i would like you to know that
    because SE has the game Cross platform with play station Sony has a'lot of say where and for how much PS4 can be sold for Because they must have
    their cut. And seeing as it is 4am here ill leave it at that because i don't have any more time for some one like you Sarcasm you have the mindset of a socialist
    and it wont be changed.

    Holy crap. Taiwan is not a SEA country. Please stop. What the heck has PS4 and Sony has got to do with this? And what socialist mindset are you talking about. We are the ones arguing against SE's decision and you are the one taking SE's word and yet we have a "socialist" mindset? Wow. Please research on what socialist means first and please get some knowledge.

    You say SEA isn't China but you mention "Chinese Morals in SEA". Please stop contradicting yourself. And brush up on your English.

    Taiwan... part of SEA...

    Can't fault you, the last time I found Brunei is located at the middle east according to SE.

    Then again, how much do you know about geographic locations? Like is Taiwan a country? Is Egypt part of the Middle East?

    Most likely you get the EU version, EU here is Europe not European Union.

    I'm still on the line thinking should I get it this expansion.
