    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.

    But anticipation is fun, daddy! Just like waiting for Santa!

    Waiting here feels a bit like going to Taurom Fuirum and asking if the Ankeg armour is ready yet.

    Since I most likely have to wait a bit longer as a Mac user, I am using the time to make my apartment spotless, so I can sit down and play for hours, stress free.

    I know only 38 minutes to go, but there are some other factors to consider before we can truly begin character creation.
    1.) Download time, it won't be immediate by any means.
    2.) Server crash: it could happen
    3.) Opening intro: We will all watch it
    and of course 4
    4.) Everyone getting over their fainting/blacking out once they see the new menu.

    I recommend the following setup to handle pesky distractions when the game launches: http://85.17.208.103/files/images/2009/72272-q3ad_sd.png

    @Anduin Thank you for constantly updating the thread title, except it makes me EVEN MORE ANXIOUS BECAUSE IT IS IN CAPS.

    @toanwrath a.k.a. The Doppleganger

    1) Download time... Perhaps this should read, Connect to the server time... Yup... Fastest click could win... Too slow and you lose...

    2) Server crash... HaHaHa! Chance to get ahead of all those faster finger clickers... Honest! This could be a blessing!

    3) Intro movie has already been posted on youtube and can be found here http://forum.baldursgate.com/discussion/7349/baldurs-gate-enhanced-edition-releases-at-1pm-november-28th-mst#latest

    4) Time lost blanking out over nerdgasms... Not sure how I can help you here... Get a tissue?

    @Anduin
    None of these actually apply to me.
    1.) Download time: I won't able to download for until 4 hours after release, perhaps by then it will be faster.
    2.) Server crash: Well...okay this might apply to me in 4 hours.
    3.) Intro movie: Now that I know I can watch that, I won't have to watch it when I open the game.
    4.) Nerdgasm: I don't think I've ever actually heard of a nerd-gasm ever occurring. Oh god I hope it doesn't though (preps a box of tissues JUST IN CASE).

    24 minutes.
