• "So, my girlfriend was trying to play Borderlands 2 online yesterday. I guess one of my friends said she's too high level to play in their game? This seems a little weird, since if you don't do sidequests immediately, you are generally a few levels past them anyways? I think it may be a 5 level difference. Does this strike anyone else as kind of weird?" [by ryuuseki]
