You can check your platform's server status by following the links below.

Players may also encounter Buffalo errors when logging in to Destiny 2 on multiple PCs at the same time. To prevent this issue, Bungie advises you to log out of Destiny 2 on any PC that you do not currently intend to play on. Luckily, this error is not a game issue and most times is a pretty easy fix.

My name is Mason Moses. I am an entertainment aficionado, who spends more time consuming it than I would like to admit. I've been playing video games for the past 15 years and every time I turn one on, it feels like the very first time. Since I liked games so much, I decided that I would write about them.
