Off Peak Play

I expect it to be fine based on the implications they've given for their netcode/latency solutions.

People do like to play in different regions quite often, and while some people with poor internet would have to play on the server near them, others probably won't.

A ton of stuff is meant to happen during prime time. I really dunno how "meaningful" the off-hours will be. Obviously every player determines their own meaning in the game they play, but all the big events will be primetime-based and most guilds/parties/raids will be happening at those times too.

There's obviously a benefit to not playing during primetime, mainly in the form of easier escapes from PKing punishments and bigger availability of resource farming/transit, so if you're mainly interested in those things - I do think off-time gameplay would be just fine. But outside of that, I dunno really.
