Suggestions for Future Fan Fests

Venue was awesome in my opinion. Do it there again! If possible though, kit out the empty rooms too with a few more bits! I think we could have had a few more cool ideas made and done. I would have loved some secret hidden places shop/event we would have to find ourselves!

I really loved everything apart from a few things;
It should of been 2 days.
There should've been more than 1 person on a till selling merchandise. The man was extremely incompetent and changed my friend £9 for a Play Arts Kai figure instead of £65. Also 3 hours and a half in a queue is ridiculous just to buy merch.
The rewards weren't on par with the Las Vegas fan fest and after finishing everything there should be been an extra prize instead of "Well Done".

Thats all really, everything else was fantastic! If they did it again next year I'm going to make sure I get the VIP tickets ASAP.

I think an addition of a special super exclusive item that only Fan Fest goers can get should also be in order.

Hildibrand and Nashu exclusive figures plsthxbye /mandervilledance

Hello everyone,

Thanks for all your feedback. We really appreciate it and are reading all your posts carefully.

I had fun.


- I don't think German or French community team was present? Well, not that I've looked too hard, but I noticed quite few DE/FR people and it would've been nice if they had someone from organisers speaking their language to talk to. If EU reps were around and I didn't notice you, my apologies. But maybe make yourselves more visible next time?

- I haven't noticed much Dev/community team presence on the floors. I know you guys must be tired from all the travelling, interviews and event preparations and I wasn't present everywhere all the time, so maybe I missed you.

Bayohne, Elmoria and I were around all day. We were wearing red "Crew" t-shirts. Maybe next year we can wear Fat Chocobo or Moogle crowns like in the video to stand out more

In regards to French and German speaking staff, most people in red "Crew" tees that were stationed in the gaming rooms spoke at least two languages. I do apologize if it wasn't obvious and players felt lost. We will certainly keep that in mind for the next time (flag stickers, anyone ? =D)

Yes I saw I talked to you Sasunaich! I recognise you straight away away it was nice talking to you. I was with my wife and I was asking you about the treasure map hunting after being told it's people I need to ask for it so when I found out it's a pic of a chest I needed to find. I fell bad now for pestering so many people XD

Oh yes I remember! Did you have a successful treasure hunt then ?

[Martin_Arcainess]

Yes it was ^^ We ask people there on where to find them so we found it ok.

An other suggestion:
Make the VIP EU comparable to the VIP in US.
Here's a small image to compare EU and US. (the last one doesn't count, as its location related and I'm not sure if the EU VIP attendees did get a free drink during the event, didn't ask / hear)

I understand that we had the "one day earlier" event to meet everyone - but in the end it was the exclusive signing session NA had.
In the end the ticket (vip or not) didn't feel "worth it" as it was the same prize as the NA ticket for less.

Erm, we got a party with a free bar and free food, a signing session with the devs, a photo with Yoshi-P, a shinier event t-shirt and early registration - all for an extra £20. I thought the VIP ticket was amazing value!
