Region Locked?

Military, Stationed in Japan, picked the game up first thing this morning.

Put in the disc steam tells me its unavailable. Go to the steam store and steam store tells me the game will unlock at this time:

3weeks 5 days and 11 hours. Excuse me?

Seriously? Im holding a hard copy in my hand right now and I cant play, not to mention the pre-load is downloading at 153KB/'s so thats a couple days worth of downloading and its not my connection.

Are you serious right now? Its not April you know the joke is a little late. Good one though. :down:

Well, you can always use a VPS to mask your network and decrypt the game files and launch it through TESV.exe instead of Steam.

I don't want to advertise any VPS networks, but you can find one with a 2 dollar trial.

Did the same thing and can't play.

Why the hell does people in Japan have to wait 3 weeks to play but looks like everyone else is playing right now.

Bethesda here is a hint - I'm an american on a military base trying to play your game. I'm not a Japanese person wanting to play the game in Japanese. Is this the reason why it will start 3 weeks from now?!

I can't read Japanese so if this is the reason you will just make the game unplayable for me.

Can anyone answer this question in Bethesda?
