I got the game last Friday the 24th and I absolutely love it - been a long time since I have been so hooked on a game right from the beginning.
I am however a little worried by the low population numbers on the Euro English server - a /who around the capital Fair Haven in the Tryker Lake Lands tend to yield a result of 5-20 players (usually 80-90% of us in the same guild

).
I do not know whether or not the population numbers for the other races look better (I imagine Matis and perhaps Fyros do), but this is certainly not a lot of people for a new game that at this time must have started to become available in most places.
Or am I wrong here? Is distribution still lacking sorely behind in countries that will join the Euro English community?
I must admit that I only managed to locate the game in a single webshop in Denmark last Friday, at EB Games they indicated that they would not have it on the shelves until October 1st, and since I have not checked this week there still may only be that one store in the entire country that has it.
If other countries (the ones with a distribution deal) are still suffering from similar problems I guess we can look forward to a much larger crowd joining from next weekend and forward.
I will be crossing my fingers, I really want this game to succeed (even if I am sure it will be and was probably expected/meant to be a niche game), and despite the low population I do have faith that we will be seeing a lot more people once the (hopefully good

) reviews start to trickle in.
If worst comes to worst I can always pray for a merging of the US and UK servers.
