Default Did you actually plan your real life around Velious launch?
"We would also like to sincerely apologize to those of you that have already established plans for a May release. We know many of you had scheduled time off from work and even planned parties or trips. I hope you can understand the importance and necessity of the decision we have made and we encourage those of you waiting in the meantime to enjoy the Daybreak Progression Server when it is released."

I'm totally cool with that!

But I did have to laugh at the bolded part. Are they serious? Who exactly is doing that, and when did they tell the staff - why did they tell the staff?


Reality check when you realize you're taking time off work or planning a road trip to LAN party an emulated version of a game that's nearly two decades old.

I look forward to it and all, but damn get a grip.

I graduate Saturday and was planning on taking a week off to just play in velious... looks like ragefire will be releasing next Wednesday to give me that fix that I needed.

It's just an assumption based on the levels of No-Lifery around here, a safe assumption I would say.

I planned some in game activities around it, but as far as RL? Nope. I don't see how taking time off to play video games is any different than taking time off to attend a show/concert/sports game etc.

You wouldn't take time off work to attend a show/concert/sports game?
