The Elder Scrolls Universe has a wide variety of fans spanning the world over. Shouldn't a title of this magnitude, with this many fans, have a fanfest like Blizzcon? It would be nice to meet a lot of you and be able to cosplay or something.

    Well, I assume it would be more of a bethesda thing since there are Fallout fans as well, etc.

    I feel like QuakeCon has a greater emphasis on Quake games and the tournament held there. Sure they show some upcoming games but it's not a place to cosplay as a Dunmer or anything.

    Bah. At this point, ZOS has created more intellectual property in the Elder Scrolls series than Bethesda Game Studios.

    Besides, Fallout isn't really a strong contributor to the Elder Scrolls franchise. :smile:

    I am European so the whole cosplay thing goes over my head. I have been to Eve Online fanfest and that is something I never wish to repeat.

    I am sure they do,somewhere but I have yet to see someone cosplay.It's just not a big thing in my neck of the woods.

    I've been to fanfest for EVE a number of times and it's amazing. The presentations and round tables are amazing, Iceland is also a beautiful county.

    On topic however and as others have said they basically use QuakeCon. It's not as focused as other fan gatherings but it does the job for them.

    Someone's gonna have to explain to him what teabagging is. I don't want to risk it, though.
