I finished today with level 41. It's going pretty fast, most exp is based on the main quest. Veterans of the Korean and Russian versions say you need about 15 hours to hit 50 if you go straight for it and know what to do.
I like to do side content though and go a bit slower.

I didn't realise the game was FTP until last night, not sure why xD but I logged on after downloading and found out I can have guns, which is cool. I managed to get onto the same server (it was like 3am)

Don't go getting your File Transfer Protocol mixed up with Free To Play
(Sorry, IT guys don't often get to make jokes out in public spaces)
I downlaoded it and started last night, no server restrictions at 3:00am. Got 2 characters made mostly to reserve the names, but I am a bit dissapointed about the gender-class restrictions.
So far, it looks like a typical JRPG with the commonly gratuitous aesthetic for player and character models. Some stunning visuals though, art department have done some good work here. That being said, the lighting spam everywhere is a bit over the top.
Combat is fun, its more free flowing than usual MMO's, its almost live action combat like Diablo 2 where you can just start attacks/skills without having to target a mob first. I do like that aspect quite a lot.
Theres some free items from Twitch Prime for this too if anyone has that, some more upcoming as well each month.

This pretty much sums up Lost Ark at prime time. Not only are the servers full, but the queues are full as well.

It does not particulary mean that the server queues are full. Had the same when I launched Lost Ark today. Needed to start the game 5 times until I came into the Server Selection screen. And no queue on Procyon.
It seems to be a problem with their game architecture, that the master list is not able to handle the amount of players that are trying to start the game at the same time. They already announced that a new europe region will be coming. All information regarding that are in their "New European Region Update - Dev Blog", including how to handle per account claims, etc.
Speaking about that blog post, every player will receive a "launch celebration gift" as soon as the new europe region launches. It includes:
