I'm almost 14 hours in and only level 35. Started skipping side quests around level 15. I suck.

And here I was thinking they really did something great with the questing. It's still the annoying typical MMO stuff, but for instance, if you get one to talk to a bunch of NPC's, or gather material, you'll see about 10 nodes pop up and think "oh fuck." Except you generally only need 1...

Saintone is currently level 44, and it's almost 10 hours into release. He had trouble getting on, so we'll say he's 9 and a half hours in. I mentioned it in chat, but I had his stream in the background and I had a good 15 minute head start on him. I was amazed how fast he blew past me. Sometime...

Crown stream is live on Twitch, in case anyone sees this and wants the pet.

Well, got to I think level 29, but that'll be it for me until next week. I may play more, but it sounds like the queues are awful, and we're leaving tomorrow. Good luck to everyone!

The only reason I decided to give this a chance is that Amazon is only the publisher. And even then I'm still kind of iffy about it based on all the fuckups so far. The game looks amazing though, and I did have fun for a few weeks in New World. I really just want a game that lasts more than a...

I'm just wondering when decrypt becomes available. If it's exactly at the start time I'm going to be annoyed.

Was done after 4 weeks. And that's being generous.

Well that's going to be a giant fuckup if it happens. Why is AGS so shit at this?

I'm pretty sure the ninja was a teenage girl who stole the costume, and "Lalo" is just a good dude who likes swords, and had nothing to do with any crimes.

Wow, uh, okay then. Yeah, that's what I was talking about.

Honestly, I was considering getting a founders pack and playing tomorrow, but if you can't even get the very first patch notes right, I've got very little faith in this launching well. AGS really, really shit the bed with New World and this reeks of the exact same incompetence I saw there.

Not sure if anyone else has watched this, but what the fuck at the 2nd episode? This seems like some stupid Seth Rogen shit. I'm assuming people will write it off as "Tommy Lee on drugs," but that was...fucking weird and just...what the fuck?

Now I'm a bit concerned. Seems like every issue over the past week they've walked back as an error. There was the twitch thing with founders packs, the founders pack being on the first character and then not, and they can't even get patch notes right? What the fuck is going on?

I guess. But as someone who never played before, feels like skipping content for the sake of skipping it. I get that it appears they want everyone to be at around the same content in every region, and I know I can still do earlier content, but just feels like I'm not getting the whole...

Yeah, I don't know much about this game, but if it's 100% success from 1-15 on both t1 and t2...what's the fucking point? May as well just skip them entirely.

I guess my question was more about how "twitchy" or sweaty the combat is, based on @Kirun's comment. Basically, if I could hold my own in BDO, is Lost Ark sweatier?

Also based on that spreadsheet, Regulus has overtaken as the highest pop server by a lot. But maybe people will see that and go elsewhere. How does this one compare to BDO @Kirun? I loved BDO (played it on two separate occasions), but the grind for gear is what broke me. I did grind the shit...

From what everyone has said, the population doesn't really matter. Zones will get instanced after about 30 players, with potentially hundreds of instances of the same zone on a single server.

Just FYI, you can do the pre-load even without a founder's pack.

Their logic is "it's followed by a recession." Uh, yeah, no kidding...when you're at essentially max unemployment, the only place to go is down. They also kept saying "1950's" as if that's supposed to make people scared. I'd imagine most people would love to revisit the 1950's in just about...

Threatens who? Seems like the only one who suffers from that is themselves.

Same here. I skipped around this super long video with Stoopzz and Saintone, and even with them being two people who are super hardcore into the game, it seems like every single class they were like, "eh, I didn't have that much fun on this class." It was kind of bizarre. So I just waffle back...

There a way to link to that as opposed to embed? That's awful in the tiny window it embeds in.

I was hopeful at the start when they said it turned into a "bigger project" that they not only watched all 11 Bruce Willis movies, but branched out and watched a bunch of other actors who were doing it. Instead, they watched 3.

It's weird how I watched the first episode of Pam and Tommy, and nothing, but after this one was over I wanted to listen to some Crue.

Depends on where you go, but I've seen literally every pack listed as the best value and worst value. Except platinum which people all say is worth it if you're willing to plunk down the cash.

Are we planning on making our own guild, or latching onto someone else?

Looks like Azena is going to be the largest server but followed very, very closely by Regulus. Just an FYI.

Something that should tank Amazon stock price.

In fairness, most of us have no idea what we're getting into. Seems like the game has about a hundred different systems and currencies, and we don't know what matters and when. Part of it is that we're getting a game already developed, one where the developer has insisted the publisher release...

Thought I had read that queues were region specific and not server?

Just for the head start. And it sounds like everyone is saying it doesn't matter.

I was going to go with bronze. I may just forego it completely depending on when we decide to leave and just pick up the game fresh when we get back. I do enjoy a good release rush, and I'm retired so I can make the most of it, but if I only get 2-4 days to play and then have to shelve it for a...

Got kind of excited about this after watching some videos, and tempted to get the founders pack, but ironically I think we're going to end up on the road sometime next week. So I'd be paying for the early access and then stopping at release to probably pick it back up a week later. Not sure...

Same here in Florida. Gonna drop the highs into the 50's in a few days. Fucking winter storms!

Man, that red candle on Meta. That's hilarious.

I was more wondering about the part where they made it sound like they took on the mighty French in battle and succeeded. Looked it up and they got fucking steamrolled. Unsurprisingly. Looks like the French suffered about 4x as many casualties from disease in Africa than they did at the hands...

From the sounds of it their naming system is dog shit, so more than likely nearly every character I have will have something ridiculous. But yeah, that was my actual question...whether 3 days makes any difference. Not whether $15 is worth it. It doesn't seem like you get anything worthwhile...

Is this thing really worth $15 to play 3 days early?
