    For me it's going to be available at 9:00 PM (GMT+1) so I'll be on a party with my friends praying that I will not have to play my first BG:EE experience on a hangover :P


    I'll even drink one for that!

    It's 4:16pm on the west coast so I'll be staying up as late as I can to play the game. Hopefully it will unlock when the clock strikes 12:00. Either way, since I'm off work for a few days I'll just stay up until it does unlock :D

    It's 1pm MDT according to Trent - might be better to sleep now so you don't doze off before you've even left Candlekeep!

    Right on, that means it does unlock at 12:00 pacific! Now I'm too excited to even contemplate dozing off!

    I will install the game, create a new character, and hate myself for not planning ahead and for having to invest hours in creating my character xD

    Oh, but those are hours of fun. I love character creation.

    I think it depends on what part of Australia you are in too.

    So then you'd get the game at 6:30am. There is a 17.5 hr difference between Edmonton, Alberta and where you live. Canada right now is in standard time (so Edmonton is in MST not MDT which may be what is throwing you off here) and you are in daylight savings time at this time of year.

    Aren't time zones just a blast? :p

    Fortunately, I came prepared for today. I played the Omega DLC for ME3, which was enjoyable enough and took up a few extra hours. And yesterday, books arrived from Amazon. Multiple books.

    Not quite the same, of course, but at least I have things to do between now and then.

    Whine because I will be heading to work about an hour before the release - may get a few hours in tomorrow but it will be sunday before I can really get a campaign going. Still pumped tho!

    6 hours and 20 minutes...

    Well since it goes live 2 hours before I wake up to get ready for work, I guess I sigh and wait.
  • elminsterelminster Member, Developer Posts: 16,317
    3 hours.

    Two hours, the length of an average movie...

    I wonder if we will get a minute-by-minute after this one.
    1 hour, 56 minutes.

    1 hour, 50 minutes (why do I have a feeling this thread may be at 15 pages by release time)
  • toanwrathtoanwrath Member Posts: 621
    1 hour, 46. These last 10 minutes have been the hardest for me. And it will only get more difficult!!
  • Son_of_ImoenSon_of_Imoen Member Posts: 1,806
    Less than 100 minutes now! That's 10 times 10 difficult minutes for @toanwrath and all of us!

    And now I'm starting to hear the sounds...they are haunting me:

    (Singing) "So sayeth the wise Alaundo..."
    "...as an elven arse!"
    "Wisdom is only possessed by the learned"
    And (even though it's the wrong game)
    "It is time for more...experiments..."

    Well, I don't know about you people, but I'm gonna get lunch. When I get back, it'll probably be mere minutes away from download time.

    Remember, children: a watched pot never boils and a watched game release never has that last part available for download. Stop driving yourselves nuts waiting here when its so close.

    The pain will only be passing, you should survive the process.

    One-and-a-half-hours and wanting my pre-load to "hop skip to it".
