Tribe Nine is a new gacha game. While many players agree that its gameplay is not bad, it seems that developers dropped the ball in the case of monetization. It is quite a common reason for the gamers to leave a negative review on Steam. At this point, only 37% out of 847 opinions is positive. We will see whether creators will address this issue. However, TN is free, so you can check it out yourself and test if it is your cup of tea. If you do that, you should read our tier list. Moreover, you might be puzzled by the region choice. What do “Others” mean? We will tell you.

Region in Tribe Nine explained

Before you even enter the game, you will be asked to pick a region. There are 5 of them at this point – Japan, America, Korea, China and mysterious Others. Many players are confused by this choice, especially the last option, as it can mean very distant places like Europe and Australia. If you are scared to pick a country, don’t worry. It will not influence your game.

Many players are hesitant to make a region choice, especially in the case of “Others”, as it may mean picking a remote server. However, developers have addressed the issue in the in-game announcement. It appears that the choice does not have any influence over gameplay. Quoting the message: “Currently, the ‘Region Selection’ option is primarily used for game data analysis purposes”.

It means that you are safe to pick “Others” option, and you don’t have to be worried about high ping. By picking a region, you give information to developers that they have community in various places and in the long run, who knows, it may be used to target some of the audiences by offering thematical updates.
