Why can't you play online?

[(Anonymous)]

OP here: sorry for the cut-and paste from above - I think I should have explained that better in the secret but didn't want to go too tl;dr. Basically I have an annoying set of fairly unusual circumstances that mean I can't play online:

I moved to a foreign country about a year ago, so when it comes to friends back home the 10-hour time difference means I'm awake/have free time when they're asleep/at work and vice versa. The friends I've made here are all really great, but they're either 20/30 years older than me and are decided non-gamers, or my age and decided non-gamers (as in, they've never even owned a console before. I don't think something like DS3 would be the best introduction to gaming those people could have even if I could convince them to give it a try)

Other issues I have are that my home internet is a finicky creature that doesn't always want to connect to my PS3 (and likes to randomly shut itself down when I try), that I'd be playing the US import version of the game whereas - I assume - my PS3 would be trying to connect me to other players playing this country's version of the game (I have no idea if there would be some sort of software compatability issue there, but it's something that's crossed my mind) and while I'm okay on a day-to-day basis in the language of the country where I live I'm nowhere near the point where I'd be able to happily communicate with other people in an online environment in said language, especially since online gamers in this country have a well-known reputation for being very much like the worst parts of the sexist dudebro gamer-culture in the US. Being noticeably foreign, not fluent in their language and female the moment I open my mouth, I really can't see online play going down well.

I know that's a really unusual and specific set of circumstances and that most people aren't going to have those problems, but I'm still a bit sad at the thought that I'm probably going to have to stick with watching Lets Plays after I finish the game to get the full experience, that's all.

That sounds pretty rough. Is this a permanent stay or what?

Do you play PC games? I keep odd hours myself, and I'm not above playing Left 4 Dead at 5 AM. :)

Hopefully permanent, yeah, and in day-to-day life most things are great: it's just the videogaming aspects that aren't always fantastic. A small price to pay, all in all, but still annoying enough to grumble about to F!S.

Unfortunately no, I'm strictly a PS3 gamer otherwise that would be the perfect thing! Thank you, though :)

Re: OP

Hey, I'm a PS3 gamer myself, and I also work the night shift, so sometimes I'm at odd hours (I also plan to get DS3). If you're interested in some co-op at some point, PM me and I'll pass along my PSNID.
