Anyone else finding the long ques psychologically bad?

It's depressing! Maybe we should all quit our jobs and login early. It's gonna be fun if the US/UK/EU caves to the new covid nonesense and locks down so we're all off work, the servers will melt! Happy Christmas all!!

Never has a forum signature been so apropos

I thank you sir! If only it were real...

*edit* Also noted you've played well as of launch.. I do hope a nerve wasn't touched.

Those words were written in English, but strewn about as they are I'm not sure how they make sense? What does "played well" mean? What nerve do you think you've touched?

He means that the OP has been playing a lot since launch. He's clearly not affected by the queue all that much if he's already L90. He's obviously not having that hard of a time getting on and finding time to play.

Nope, because it's a game.

... do y'all not have ANY self control?

[Aelin_Ashryver]

People are responsible for themselves ultimately but I do agree that due to the long queue's it is resulting in negative behaviour from many players to varying degrees. Who wants to wait hours in a queue you had to baby sit due to risk of errors only to then be booted out once you need to cook? Rather a waste of your time. I log on early before it gets busy busy so I can be on pretty much the whole day without fuss while not neglecting basic care for myself.

Some people could do with some empathy instead of just crying have self control and being nasty and holier than thou about addiction. This failing, the long queue coupled with the errors making you babysit the pc, are detrimental to players health, SE does not force them to do what they are doing but regardless the negative impact is there and they are well aware as game devs what player behaviour can be like. I am not that bothered about the queue and I dont think SE deserve that much hate for it but srsly stop putting people down for having problems.

in this case, no.

people have problems because they refuse to recognize that they have a problem. and because they refuse to see the problem is completely owned by them and their choices, nothing... not a damn thing, anyone else can do will ever change that and all that empathy and coddling does is enable that behaviour.

if you have a problem, face it, accept it, and deal with it so its not a problem. if you need help dealing with it, get help. but using an excuse like "the queue is making me do it" is just a way to avoid personal responsibility. apologies for coming across as harsh, but the reality is, unless you own your own problems, be they an addiction or an attitude... nothing will ever change in your life for the better. empathy for avoiding responsibility? never.
