Which, if any, of the main gaming conventions will Anet be attending this year?

evil_guy563 · Feb 11, 2010, 12:54 AM

Now that its been pointed out to us that NCsoft and most likely Anet will not be attending E3 it leads me to wonder what conventions they will be attending as this gives us a look at when they might be releasing their next trailer/gameplay info. This question will hopefully be answered by Martin or Regina but all contributions are welcome.

Well, most likely PAX. That's what they've been focusing on, as far as I know

I'm hoping for PAX and GC, but who knows. I'm not going to be too hopeful for any meaty news until after GC.

That is a long time from now... and ANET has said they will not be at E3 or PAX East... so what would the next possiable convention?

evil_guy563 · Feb 11, 2010, 01:32 AM

Theres Game Developers Conference and Games Con but thats still ages away.

are you sure that that means Arenanet as well or is it just NCsoft?

NCSoft West = ANET

Same company, just branded two different ways.

NCWest and ArenaNet are two separate subsidiaries of NCSoft (essentially, NCWest = Aion, ArenaNet = Guild Wars Franchise). That said, it's possible that a couple of ArenaNet staff could tag along.

Either way, I'm fairly certain that ArenaNet wont have a large public presence at any convention until the PAX/GC combo in August/September.
