Cannot make another character for 19 hours????
So character creation is in a dark room with bright red flashing lights. The colors look nothing like what you create in character creation once you get into the open world. So I deleted and recreated a few times to get what I want. One of my deletions was because everyone wanted to start on another server. Then again because the server was full and we all had to move to another one. The last time it booted me and said that I cannot create another one for 19 hours. WTF. At least give lighting options during creation so you do not run into this problem. Such simple a thing implemented in many games. Now I have to wait another day to play while my friends have a great time leveling. That is just wrong.

Same happened to me. I recreated a few new characters because i wanted to spawn in Windsward. Then i got the popup - You have created to many characters recently. Please try again in 19 hours. So now i'm going to be 19+ hours behind ever one else on a New start server. I'm guessing this is something to do with gold farmers making to many accounts. Anyway Great job AGS so much for my new start haha.

Exactly. I am sitting here watching my Hubby play and talk to our friends as they play. I am a sliver away from saying bye bye game. I am already irritated that I was not able to give my other characters a free makeover. Instead I have to create another if I want to use the new faces and hair. Every MMO I have ever played that implemented new faces or hair gave a free makeover to your characters. At least put a barber shop in. I am pretty sure what will happen is they will sell the makeovers. Which will make me even more irritated. My husband and I are older and have issues seeing dark screens so character creation was rough. He literally had to get up and go to the TV just to see his characters face. They need to implement lighting changes during creation. Anyway, happy day!

This is to prevent botters and gold sellers/spammers. They will ease up with the restrictions in time, but for now, it's necessary. I suggest just making a character and sticking with it. That's what I did and my character was beat with an ugly stick. Time to invest in some helmets.

I find i so funny, they want old and new players back and now i can't play haha. Why 19 hours, why not 10 minutes or even an hour. Why is it 19 hours? they may as well make it 24 Hours hahahah so dumb.

I agree. If it had been an hour or two I would not have minded so much.

I have been waiting for a LONG time to be able to have a decent looking character. Today they released that ability. I had 3 high level characters I have stuck with for a long time. I am sick of looking at their awful faces. I deleted one today in order to utilize the update in character models and now I am locked out. I pretty much came back specifically because of the update in graphics etc. 19 hours is NOT necessary. It is a bit overkill. Just my opinion)

I hate to say it but you could have just used the original character and walked to where you wanted to do the questline you like.
There really is a good reason for the 19 hours. And if you want to make a 3rd one that should be 36 hours, 4th 48. Anything to stop the terrible bot problems with this game would be wonderful. Sorry you got caught in the middle but what AGS did is good for the game.
i had to delete and restart hope to play with my friend in the same starting world and now i am in queue 800

I lost a good name doing the same thing

A warning this would happened if you delete your character would be nice.

That is a bummer, I almost went down the same rabbit hole glad I did not, helmets ftw!
