I guess the citizens from 'Akavir' aren't allowed to mingle with the 'Tamriel' cultures as usual. *snicker*

But more seriously, it is usually a government that demands the game is banned, or blocks the game itself. For example, Diablo 3 had to be adapted because many Eastern laws did not permit the workings of the Auction House (a way to buy player-looted items with real money) because their laws considered it a form of gambling. People who live in many Asian countries got a stripped-down version where no transactions of any kind could be made with real money.
