So it took around... 3 hours after the actual announced time to actually get stable servers. With an absolutely crazy amount of people basically spamming the login button.

Then I played for a couple of hours straight. Really smooth, I'm loving the new graphics, the combat is fun... And I'm really excited to grow my character and explore the world!

Edit 90 hours later: Still having fun! I'm progressing through the endgame, got my build mostly sorted out, starting to figure out how to get even stronger, the works :D

There are a number of issues, both major and minor that need tweaking/fixing, but nothing that is ruining my enjoyment of the game.
