I'm hyped. My only.trouble is deciding what empire I want to play first. I've narrowed it down to 4
The Freen: Butterflies who were enslaved in the middle ages by a species that evolved before them on their planet. Now they are fanatical purifiers only trusting other Freen
The Voss: based after 'Grays' a legit and technocrats that is attempting to find genetic perfection.
The Jorani: Reptilians who live for battle and seek to demonstrate their superiority through battle.
Or The Thikrit: a fast breeding insectoid Hivemind that is constantly trying to find more room and food for the swarm.

Well, at first I was like "okay, slavery that's pretty cool."
But then I was like "I get to turn into robots, that is so f-ing cool, how is that gonna work?"
And then I was like "I get to START with robots! AND tailor make my own government! I CAN'T WAIT SIX WEEKS FOR THIS"
And then I was like, "I still want alot, but it's only three weeks, I'll just listen to this soothing new track and I'll wait. I can wait three weeks."
And then I was like, "Patch notes? Clever way to give us a dev diary that answers as many lingering questions as possible. Just one more week, I"m chill...."
And NOW I'm like, "FOUR MORE HOURS! I CAN'T WAIT FOUR MORE HOURS!"

Key received from Paradox. Immediately activated via my Paradox account. Now visible in Steam, but won't be playable until 3pm. It's on its way folks!
Got drunk yesterday, so I didnt have to wait; was expecting hangover and sleeping it off to last until release....but fail. Should have drunk two more beers.....
Im not exaggerating here, but I am more excited for this expansion, than I was for the games release, or have been for most games release. I've said it before, this game has the potential to be a masterpiece. Utopia is a solid move in the right direction.
Looks like Banks has dropped i.e. I'm getting Banks v1.5.0 on the Launcher. Now just need Utopia 
I genuinely have never looked forward to any Paradox expansion more. Actually, I'm not sure I've ever been this hyped for a DLC.
Also those aren't bugs, they're 'features'. And they add to the challenge!
Let me guess. You work in IT.
For the record, I hope I'm wrong. I so want to be very very wrong.
Buckle up! That game took me 72 hours to get to a decent level of completion (main story finished, and most side quests/tasks completed, all planets at 100% viability, and all systems 100% scanned)

Hah! I am in IT, actually.
Had the same problem, I lucked out though. I chose my old standby of the Terran Confederacy, and the first 'aliens' I met were humans from Earth. Everything went better than expected.
