There's lots of problems with early access from what I'm reading on dev site and twitter. Launches are no fun. Next week will be better! 

Some people preordered for early acces code, then cancelled and can still play early access. Servers are buggy as hell and players have been shut out for maintenance, so far today anyway. MMO early days always suck. 

I didn't pre order the game. Just standard version for me. I played a lot of beta that's why. I can wait a few more days. 

I don't have early access. I will have to start playing on Aug 27. I have a hyur Arcanist lv 20 on Gilgamesh during Phase 4 so I should be leveled up by official launch day. You could very well start a linkshell if you get to level +20 I think. 

What class are you thinking of leveling? I think Arcanist is both a Healer and DPS.  I'm also leveling Conjurer and Thaumaturge for cross abilities with Arcanist. Are you DPS, Healer or Tank?  I think Archer is the easiest to play because they just do ranged damage. Gladiator and Marauder usually have to lead a group in dungeons, while Conjurors support with healing magic. 

I'm also looking at a couple of guilds for end game and such. I'm not 100% certain I can login to Gilgamesh at all on lauch, so.

Have fun. You may want to level up complimentary classes for cross abilities too. 

What are the kids fav games? Are they getting Disney Infinity? I want Disney Infinity. 

I wouldn't mind buying a book about the whole Silent Hill Series or Persona series for example. I should start writing. Ready. Set. Go!

You need to get lots of practice before Dark Souls 2. You don't want to get rusty you know.

But if your server fills up you will experience being kicked out of your game or you'll need to queue up just to login to your server like many of us experienced this weekend. Have fun with pre-launch!

This is turning into a nightmare. Many people had already decided on Server worlds prior to launch, but the positive feedback and excitement of the new game has over populated many servers, so much so that new servers had to opened for spill over. I don't know what's going to happen at launch now. I'm hoping that the game will stay small and niche and most players choose not to subscribe. It sounds backwards but it's true. I found an active community of players on Gilgamesh, so I plan to stick to that server for this reason. We'll just have to figure it all out just before launch. 

I find Nintendo difficult to defend even as a fanboy. Although a lot of my gaming has been on DS/3DS/PSP/VITA, especially DS, I have no real reason to pick up the WiiU at all. You would think that Nintendo would at least put out some more virtual console games or maybe gamecube games, but no. It's like they don't care. As the new console dates approach I'm growing tired of this gen games and graphics and I'm ready for the next thing. Wind Waker is just not enough. Pokemon on the other hand, oh but wait, it's on 3DS.
