You really don't have to do this to yourself

[LitheSuxman]

I myself am willing to go to bed and wake up 1-3 hours early, log in at 4am and play a bit before work. Just enough ppl to do most content, but you won't even notice there is a queue. The last two days are weekends, it's been a blast, there isn't even a wait time until 12:00pm, which is surprisingly forgiving.

You really don't have to do this to yourself, but I want to, because I don't like making excuses and blame everything on SE. If you want to play, you will find a way.

You're welcome to brace the long queue and 2002/4002 or whatever it's called, I'd gladly spend my time after work with my family and sleep and wake up a little bit early until the launch period is over.

I shouldn't have to get up at 4am just to have a chance to play a game.

That's how I managed to play a bit this weekend, but with work coming up and other real life commitments, it's not sustainable. I work from 6am to 6pm (when you factor in commuting and projects). After work, I spend a few hours helping family, unfortunately that gives me time to play from 8-11 pm. I'm sure others have way more limits on their time. So, yes, adjusting your lifestyle to allow you to play those off hours is great, but it's not realistic for most people.

It's true.

You don't actually have to, you know. You can wait a bit, and the queues will magically vanish.

Unless someone is forcing you to play the game. That may be a crime, so please try and contact your local authorities at your earliest convenience.
