Maybe, I don't know, 4 months ago I was playing Destiny and me and my brother were doing the Nexus Strike. We knew how to properly do the strike, but there was a guy in our game that had no idea. So we invited him to a party. Nothing out of the ordinary, nothing strange. However, he was talking to his friend and he named a place that was semi close to where we lived. Thinking it was simply coincidence we asked where he lived. He said South Florida. As we kept talking we kept saying things that were closer and closer. Eventually, out of the blue, it became apparent that we lived no more then five minutes away from eachother.

Anyway, months go down, I have no idea what this guy looks like, just have his first name and know his voice.

So today I'm at a local food place, and I see this guy with his girlfriend sitting near the window. I thought nothing much of it but I realized, hey, I see them here a lot. For like years I've seen them there, not so much the girl, but the guy. I never was close enough to really hear his voice or anything. Today I had to go that way to get something, and behold, as I got closer the voice sounded more and more familiar. I got a phone call, I answered, and as soon as I said a few words he had gotten up and come to me. We both looked at eachother, and smiled. And realized, shit, we've literally been going to the same restaurant for years, have seen eachother, have talked about eachother, a bunch of shit. And then randomly met over Xbox Live.

To me, that's pretty insane, and a pretty awesome experience. I've never had something happen like that, ever. Sure, I found out a kid in one of my classes frequented B.net and knew of me from the forums, but didn't know that it was me. Like he knew my user.

But this is a whole different level.

So, have you ever had an experience like this?

its because Destiny is region based. it will pull players from around your location.

but no, i havent. thats kinda cool

Region meaning East Coast and such, not specifically Florida.

Or am I completely wrong?

BC why are you playing a bad game?

Because the game is fun when you play with people who make it fun

That's with any game

Elegiac is regularly stalking my position. Like he literally lives in the same suburb as me.

I've played with people that lived in the same area code as me but have never met anyone.
