Mark my words: IT WILL BE A CHAOTIC LAUNCH DAY
At least a million people downloading 150gb. Starting all at the same time!
If Larian doesn't do anything to mitigate this, they will get the blame.
I know it should be Steam's fault, but I'm damn sure Larian will be the one to bear the consequences.
Going to be so much unnecessary stress for everyone. Midnight release would split up the server access much better, which would be very beneficial for such a huge game.
Of course that would mean technically 24 individual releases even though automated.
And I bet that's why Steam doesn't want it. They'd have to pay 3 shifts of teams to watch everything instead of 1.
