So no PAX West presence?

[Dallan.6247]

Based on the Fall/Winter announcement, I'm guessing A-Net won't have a presence at PAX next week. Was sort of hoping they'd at least do something online even if they decided not to have a booth or fan get-together.

Covid is still a thing.

My question is why are they even doing PAX west, unless its a digital thing? Doesnt seem like a good idea to me..

I suspect that's why Anet aren't there. I know they're all still working from home and I suppose if the company doesn't think it's safe for their staff to be in the office they won't think it's safe to attend a big in-person event.

Yup i imagine that too. I appreciate them actually giving a crap about their employees, makes me feel better throwing money at them xD

Do you think they are still all working at home?  I thought the EoD reveal showed them back in the studio.  At least, some are.

I'm sure I read somewhere that they're all still working from home (possibly something related to EoD being delayed).

 

But it could be like my employer; officially all the office staff are still working from home but in practice some people have still been going to the office for various reasons (usually because their job can't be done from home even if it's an office job) or working from different locations depending on what they're doing that day.
