Well when I looked at the venue for the EU event, the hall they are using is The Grande Halle is made of cast iron and glass. It covers an area of 220,000 sq ft. Compared to what they're doing for the NA event I think it's obviously going to be larger and more fun. As for the Japan one, I heard they actually had machines where you could win XIV merch for some of the games, while we got to throw pool noodles.
Tickets are all gone for fan fest

I doubt they'll learn from this. It seems they never learn from anything. But I'll tell you what. I sure as hell do. With people able to skip the queue just from having the link. I'll remember that. Fuck your queue. I'll be skipping it to ensure I get my ticket next time. I have the right to do so when I have a code that should have allowed me a good chance to get a ticket. But no. Because people were able to get tickets without codes, AND be able to skip the queue. It made it SO easy to just buy tickets, reskip the queue and buy even more tickets.

Guys we can't stay here and act like nothing happen while the rest of the people who cheated got their tickets we the ones who were in queu since 12 with an access code got nothing...
Next Live Letter is on Monday July 16, we should all ask Yoshida wtf their gonna do about everyone who wasn't able to get tickets due to their broken system, all of us should stand and ask the same questions while the live letter is up and running; That will put them in a corner and maybe we might get some live answers Let Yoshida see the community standing together let them know we want answers in the next Live Letter
SE and showclix knows they fuck up badly the next letter will show us if they really how care for our Community.... -
07-13-2018, 12:59 PMBambiitaruI agree, I can understand things selling out, and I think most people would understand if they didn't get a ticket due to normal circumstances. But this was a complete and utter failure and if they are trying to sweep it under the rug, just think of what else they may try to get away with at the actual Fanfest. I think there should be a ton of submitted questions of how they are going to resolve this, and why they feel that this is acceptable.Quote:

I really don't want this to be swept under the rug. This has been pretty devastating to me. :\

I just hope SE learns from this and does not repeat the same mistakes for the next Fanfest. I missed out this year, but I do hope to attend the next one.
