Do you have a must-see event?

gonexall

Now that the schedule is out, I wonder if anyone else has one or two must-see events. As we all know, plans can change as new cool things emerge at Pax, but still there may be a few things we will wait in line for and not miss no matter what comes up. For me, it's Acquisitions Incorporated. I am so excited! This is their first time doing it at east so I'll probably have to line up pretty early, but I am committed. What is/are your must-see event(s)?

I'm going to be in Enforcer mode for the weekend, but having not had a chance to go to Prime and only getting to enjoy the AI sessions as recordings, it's the single thing I really wish I'd have a chance to go to. I'm sure it'll be a great time. Enjoy it!

Roosterteeth and IGN. Can't wait

Sgt.Mays

RoosterTeeth, Nvidia and the Gearbox ones are must sees for me.

Mass Effect .... Gearbox .... Murdered Soul Suspect

sfford2008

I cannot miss the pitch your game panel...I always leave that panel satisfied and laughing so hard!

SwordnStone

I'm super excited for Acq. Inc. and to see Kris and Mikey at the Chainsawsuit panel!

Paxman90

Mass Effect events for sure, no way I can miss that!

Qumaden

I got to give my handmade dice to the guys last year at Prime, but didn't get to see the AQI live game. Really hoping to this year at Bahston.

Dolarrah

The Future of PC Gaming and NVidia are the only two peeking my interest and yes, someone scheduled them at the same time.... ARGGGGGG

Acq Inc! Chris Perkins is a god among DM's! So pumped

zerzhul

Ah, yeah, somehow forgot to mention the omegathon.

nevermore13

Acquisitions Inc., Of Dice and Men screening/panel, and of course Omegathon finale

ilta

Well, i'm presenting in the That Cute Radioactive Couple play-reading panel, so technically I can't miss that one, har har.

And I'm really looking forward to AqInc and the Make-a-Strip panels, of course. The "Kickstarter for non-famous people" looks cool, as does the Early Access panel scheduled at the very end of the con, if I'm not too completely wiped out.

RidleyDragon

Whatever you do, don't miss Acquisitions Inc.

VmKid

Any year before this one, I'd have said the Concert in which JoCo and Paul and Storm are playing. Since they're not playing this year, I'd have to say the Anamanaguchi concert.

If loud music isn't your thing, Game Show Night is at the same time. It's always a lot of fun.

As far as less-than-scheduled events go, be sure to play PAX XP (if they're doing it again this year) for some free swag. Speaking of swag, I always like to spend some time collecting all the free crap I can carry. Pins. Pins everywhere.

Acqu Inc is a MUST for me.

Pretty much sums it up for me. I am sure my bf will want to venture off into other things but I want to spend most of my time in the tabletop area and or arenas playing games.
Less than 30 days now! AH am excite!

Coan

The fact that we've got AI now means it tops Storytime as the one I must see. I've already made my list of "must see's" which is less than last year...which means I might actually get to see more of them.

Renneesme

Murdered Soul Suspect... Gearbox (for my love of Borderlands)... stoked for Game Shows... and anything to do with JRPGs

kelseycadaver

anything with gamification, I love that stuff. Also anything that talks about furthering your career in the game industry, I saw two or three panels on that topic.

pilferk

I have 3 I'm struggling with (all at roughly the same time on Friday):
6 months into the Console war
Couples who game together
Wildstar:{bleep] just got real

I think I'm going to end up in the Wildstar one, for reasons I can't currently disclose.

Future of PC gaming,
Tie for 3rd: Next Gen MMO and Future of Online games

Those are just my top 3. SOOOO much breakout goodness this year, many of which are mentioned above.

THPS 2 Tournament and The Creatures panel

scottyb1218

My personal must-see events:

• Finding Balance in Gaming, Pursuits, and Obligations panel (so important for me...trying to balance life pursuits and game pursuits is tough)
• What You Need to Know about Podcasting panel (been considering a podcast for some time...interested to hear what is discussed)
• Anxiety and Depression in Gamers panel (also important, as I've been struggling somewhat with these)
• The Golden Age of RPGs panel (I'm older, and I miss my old-school SNES RPGs!!)
• Royal Rumble on the N64 with 30 players (sounds absolutely ridiculous and crazy...is also nostalgic for me)
• Acquisitions Inc. (for obvious reasons)
• Omegathon (at least the final round)

gonexall

Wow! Now I am getting confused. I thought my only must-see was Acquisitions Inc, but you all have pointed out some others that are nearly as important for me--how could I miss Make a Strip or the Omegathon final round? And there are so many other awesome-sounding panels. This year's schedule is particularly deep and rich. So tempting, but I must carve out time for table top!

yup, same. make a strip is always my favorite, but I could not be more excited for East's first Acq Inc game.

pelicanflip

Blizzard - Heroes of the Storm
Gearbox Software
Square Enix - Murdered: Soul Suspect
WildStar


So excited for Heroes of the Storm.

Lazorz

I've grown really fond of Game Show Night. If I get to attend any panels Friday night, it'll definitely be (at least) one of those.

cocowoushi

Also, Game Art and Writer's Workshop. I should probably try and catch a Pitch your Game Idea some time. I keep wanting to go but never end up going...

TopherRocks

The Royal Rumble on Sunday morning!
I'm actually not sure if I'm serious about this.

These...

I'm also quite tempted to check out the Kerbal Space Program Tournament, but that's just me.

LevelUpLady

So far Im mostly excited about the music selection! Though there are a few interesting panels that are peaking my interest.. the ones that everyone else seems to want to go to - rooter teeth, make a strip, etc. but some others im just curious about like "the couple that games together..." will be interesting to see where they go with it haha.

Quintious

I saw a cosplay panel somewhere in the schedule. Even though I myself don't do it, I rather enjoy the people watching, so I'll be at that.

Related note: Get Crabcat Industries back at Prime with their panel.

Malgaras

Holy crap Acquisitions Inc is at east! So that, although I get the feeling it will fill up super insanely fast.
