Another disappointment after taking away our 3 day early access. As usual those on European and African time zones gets screwed. Awesome...
Too much to ask for a midnight release locally like other games have done on steam...
Mostly a size thing, I think. BG3's hype is kinda through the roof, you can see it on their sale charts and where BG3 is ranked. If Steam has concerns a game might actually take their servers down, it's understandable they'd want as many hands on deck as possible--which means a US time launch.
