The midnight release I went to was pretty uneventful. At Gamestop, they said be there at 11:00 because that's when all of the activities and stuff start. Me and Nikki got there at 10:30 and stood outside their door in a line for an hour and a half until they finally opened their doors at 12:10 and let 10 people in at a time. Luckily since we got there so early we were like the first people in line.
At the FFXII midnight release they had quizzes and prizes and shit.
Yeah the one here was just a bunch of WoW nerds (seriously, they put everyone I've ever known to shame) talking inside the gamestop. There were a total of maybe 50 people. ThankfullY I had my zune,
There were some pretty bad people here. I had my "FOR THE HORDE" hoodie on of course, and I think I was the only one with a horde hoodie, everyone else had alliance(the people that even had one that is.) We saw this one kid whos whole face was one giant pimple, I swear, it was DISFUCKINGUSTING. Not only that but Nikki was one of the only two girls at the whole thing (out of 200 people, probably 30-50 girls) that were below 300 pounds, the other girl looked anorexic and was probably like 105 or something, and Nikki is around 130.
My server has had queue's for months, now they've just gotten worse. I think Blizzard lowered the server caps so the servers would stop being naughty, so now instead of getting kicked off or lag spikes every minute or so I get to wait in line for an hour.
People seem to run out of quests at around 64 3/4, and from there you've pretty much got to grind instances until 65 which opens up more quests.
I myself haven't gotten very far, the quest mobs on my server are being farmed like crazy, but they respawn like crazy too. I have to watch out because if everyone is in one spot and then moves, I've got like 4-5 mobs spawning around me. I was in that place where you get boiling blood and the little skeleton minion things were driving me NUTS.
It worked out nearly perfectly for me. I needed only about 14 kills from when I turned in my last soloable quest to when I dinged 62. Now I'm building rested until I start my work in Zangarmarsh (sp)
