The Elder Scrolls Online team is headed to Boston for PAX East 2016! Find out our full ESO Community Headquarters schedule, a list of who is attending, and a description of the activities and panels we have planned.
ESO Community Headquarters Location & Schedule
The ESO Community Headquarters will be open from 10AM to 6PM EDT on Saturday, April 23, in the Cyrodiil Room. If you're headed to PAX East, we'd love to see you! We'll have a full day of activities, panels, and even some ESO-themed giveaways. Here's where you can find us:
Level 2 – Cyrodiil Room (Room 206)
10AM – 11AM: Morning Community Mingling (Activity)
Start your day with a little morning conversation about The Elder Scrolls Online. Meet fellow ESO player and guildmates, chat with ESO developers and get your favorite piece of ESO merchandise signed, and hang out before we kick off the day of panels and activities. (BYOCAS – Bring your own coffee and sweetrolls.)
11AM – 12PM: Storytelling in ESO (Panel)
Join us for an exploration of storytelling in The Elder Scrolls Online. We'll step through each stage of storytelling in ESO starting with determining the story we want to tell, staying true to Elder Scrolls lore, which teams help in telling the stories, the full path that a visual story in ESO takes from start to completion, how we approach humor in ESO, and our philosophies for writing good dialogue. This panel will have an open Q&A at the end, so bring your questions!
Panelists:
Creative Director Rich Lambert, Lead Content Designer Jeremy Sera, and Loremaster Lawrence Schick
12:00PM – 1:30PM: Break – Free Time
