    If you pop over to the PoE website you should be able to redeem your keys for Steam or GOG and if you've got the Steam one you can preload now.

    So now you know.

    Cheers, just redeemed mine! Kinda weird that they didn't have an e-mail announcement to coincide with this but I guess they'll send it out when the game is actually released.

    Thanks for the heads up. It's an 18 gig download on PC. I can't imagine that there would be an 18 gig difference between the two OS's considering that it's compiled in Unity3D.

    @honkalot: In theory in the Central European Time zone it will be playable at 18.00, so 10.00 Pacific/ 13.00 East Coast. No mindnight release in any case, at least on Steam (i've no idea if on Gog it's gonna be different)

    @thunderslash: That's what Steam is saying anyway.

    That info is often updated at the last minute. Not saying it's wrong, just saying it has been before.

    @veektarius: Yeah, so I wasn't able to install because Steam claimed it required 36GB and thought I only had 33GB for Time Machine reasons. After clearing local snapshots I got it to install and the download is only 11GB. Not a big deal since I had the extra space, but annoying none the less.

    Bummer the steam version is a 1300 US Central time unlock. Kind of a bummer. I was itching to play tonight.

    Sweet.

    If only I hadn't just started another Persona 4 run. *sigh*... Maybe I can sneak some side time with this game while people sleep.

    Is the game in a good state right now, or should we hold off playing for a few months to a year until they fix like usual with PC games?

    It's a 6gb download on Steam, it's 18gb installed.

    Sure it's not 1000? It's 1700 CET according to their homepage. (According to Obsidians homepage that is, I don't know how steam works with that.)

    Wow, 18 gigs. There must be huge amounts of maps in this game. I suppose they can't just reuse textures...

    You're completely right. I apologize for signaling the time wrong by one hour, but i was led to make a mistake by the steam counter :(

    Game won't play for me on steam. I want to believe they didn't factor in DST because that would be funny, but most likely it's just some error with it not updating yet. Sure as hell is post 1700 now though.
