Hello. Thanks for the interesting topic - by reading through everyone's comments, it helped me to choose where to stay for myself.
I had doubts, because of the announced release timing, but I'm choosing you - Elysium realm!
Most likely I'll be rolling a Warrior (A).
I tend to not rush the game (quest/lore lover) and I venture into a new zone already with some levels above and decent gear. Plus, I'm not that good in PvP either, so this is like bonus protection for me.
Thinking about it... it just gives me the chills/excitement when you meet your opposing faction and have a stare-down - Will either of us attack each other, or will we just pretend that we're blind and just walk by.
