    I am really considering putting in some vacation time today so I can start on time :-p


    I just don't think my manager would understand why I NEED to go home. I had to explain what AIM was. <!--emo&???--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html//emoticons/confused-fix.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='confused-fix.gif' /><!--endemo-->

    so if things go bad, the stress test is going to blow up right? And it's going to be a second Steam right? And we're going to yell at Blizzard?

    Nope, I'm hating Blizzard for making them make us wait like this. I have to go soon so I was hoping to play for like an hour or maybe a half an hour first. It doesn't look like I'll be able to at all at this rate. I'm just sitting here refreshing pages and clicking the link over and over for now.

    It's a beta, plus it's a STRESS TEST. Chances are you are going to have problems.

    Not really. Its a stress on the server test. You might encounter lag, but thats it. Everything else is how the demo HAS been. <!--emo&;)--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html//emoticons/wink-fix.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='wink-fix.gif' /><!--endemo-->

    Well, unlike FPS's, RPG's are about the world. The detail. Morrowind sucked but it was oh so fun decorating my room (not ****). Boulders Gate got me bored fast, but it was nice on the eyes. Yes it is just newer graphics, but that's a big big part of RPG's.

    Good RPG's aren't simply copies of other RPG's. 99.5% of MMORPG's are simply a copy of every other damned fantasy world out there with minor, useless features and better graphics.

    I still need a link to the client file, because without that my key is kind of useless.

    AND THE FILEPLANET LINK DOES NOT WORK, so stop posting it at me like I'm an idiot.
