I had no intentions of playing this game because, even though I love Bioware games, I was afraid an MMO would eat my life. Then I played a beta weekend because Bioware devs posted to the main Bioware social site; it seemed like they wanted as many people as possible to play, to stress-test the servers, so I obliged. I ended up enjoying it so much that I pre-ordered after that. I don't see myself getting more than a day's early access, but I'm not bothered. That's just life. Anyway, given the previous concerns over life-eating, I am going to try to limit myself to light play, so it's not like a few days would have given me much of a head-start.
