I though countries in Asia had more conventions like this I think they do but ever since the pandemic, I have really paid attention to how they set up. I'm going to look into when they would probably have another.
Kane99 Posted February 14, 2022 Posted February 14, 2022 I have never been to a con or festival. I would love to one day go to e3 or something like comic con or even pax. But I don't know when that day will come.

I am still looking up to any of them as well especially the con.

Justin11 Posted February 18, 2022 Posted February 18, 2022 I believe such kind of event at the moment will be virtualized. That is people watching through it in a virtual way like the zoom meeting instead of risking the health and gathering in a offline mode.

Yeah, it's something that's most likely to happen if the recent surge doesn't go down with the number of people getting infected.

Yeah, provided covid 19 still exist the video game industry should stick to online meetings just to reduce the risk of covid 19 spread.

But wait, football fans go to stadium 🏟 to watch their clubs matches, so why can't the pandemic of coronavirus stop them?

If you watch football matches they aren't parked in full like before. When it comes to video game ceremony like the one we're talking about, it will attract more crowds from different countries not just within a certain nationality.

When over 50,000 fans come to a stadium to watch a match, how can you say they are not parked full? Have there ever been a gaming event that over 50,000 people came?

They means things have come back to normalcy if such numbers are allowed to watch soccer.

The last Derby match between Manchester United and Manchester City, had over 60,000 fans in the stadium.

If so, then why is the world still feeling that covid 19 is effective like before?
Yaramaki Posted February 21, 2022 Posted February 21, 2022 Went to gamescom in germany a few years in a row but that's about it i guess.

I can't seem to understand that at all because most of them don't even wear their nose marks.
