    Took me 5 hours to download. If your computer is taking 50 hours, just be warned, you'll be lag city and you'll probably crash the computer and freeze a lot with this game, even on lowest settings.

    The time might change throughout the download.
    Try closing out of everything you have, then restart the download.
    Also, if you live in another country, this might be a problem as well. (Friend lived in New Zealand I think and it took her a day and a half to download)

    On a large download such as this, it might take 10-20 minutes of downloading before the estimated time starts displaying something more realistic.
    I post in forums. This one and others. That's why I post.

    It took me between 2-4 hours; 50 sounds way too much. xDDD

    Though after it starts downloading, you might want to wait a few minutes to see if the time left changes. It usually starts ridiculously high and then goes down to a reasonable wait.
    I was imagining on the board not too long ago, I didn't know it resets post count when you pick a avatar. xD

    PWI newbie, been playing for about a month or so. Currently main is my Venomancer Reveriez! =D

    There is also the option of download from a torrent, something like bittorrent, and download the file from other users kind enough to host it. My typical speed this way was around 300kb/s and took about 2-3 hours.

    Check the BitTorrent Download part.
