Going to try re-installing it while playing on my hubbys pc cause his works. Don't get me wrong..I've experienced worst pre-plays and pre-purchase headstarts than this..(good example: FFXIV:Stormblood when 90% of the playerbase couldn't progress because of a damn quest bug that only allowed a very few lucky amount past it..and 24+ hours were spent spamming the npc trying to get lucky..ugh)
Still excited to play this!
I've heard some people just spam launching until it works too, I hope the DEVs are still working on this and give us a fix--maybe a title screen skip or something like that since that splash seems to be what everyone is stuck at. Hope to see everyone in game soon!
