Somewhat annoyed that the early access people got a bank holiday weekend of early access here in the UK, I guess it makes it less of a rip off for them.

I doubt they targeted the global launch just for the UK holiday which just makes it more annoying ๐Ÿ˜†

Yeah it would've been less frustrating if they did the "early access" at the start of the week so everyone could hop on during the weekend.

I hope next expansion people will massively change their minds about buying into early access, because it's such a stupid feature for a game that's already a โ‚ฌ50 with a paid subscription on top, completely destroying everything that made expansion launches great (world firsts, everyone playing together, not having to deal with massive story spoilers on social media).

But I'm afraid too many people will simply not care and still shell out for a couple of days extra.

It felt so bad waiting for the normal launch while most of my friends are already 80. I hope blizz doesn't continue with early access but I doubt it, seeing how many people actually bought it
