ARR is looking pretty good. So who's hoping for a convention next year? I had a good time at 2 of the last FFXI conventions. First one has to be in L.A.! Smiley: grin

I went to Fan Fest in LA in 2008, had a blast. Had a lot of vodka Red Bulls, met a lot of cool people from my server, tons of fun. If they do one in LA for XIV then my LS and I are going. We all live in San Diego so just a 2 hour drive Smiley: nod

I'd be down to going to a Los Angeles convention for FFXIV.

The only gaming event I ever went to was when I lived in San Francisco. There's a mall there called the Metreon that used to be owned by Sony. They had the EQOA release there. It was pretty fun. The place was filthy with supermodels and nerds lol.

I live in Phoenix now but would definitely be down with a FF event/convention as long as it was within a few hours drive. I've contemplated heading to comic con in San Diego but its just too much. I think an FF event would be easier to enjoy.

Id rather they had it virtually anywhere else on the west coast. Unless you want to see Hollywood, LA is a bad tourist destination. San Francisco, San Diego, Seattle, Las Vegas... all better destinations IMO.

San Diego would rock, since I live in town Smiley: tongue LA wasn't bad. They had at Renaissance Hollywood, so there was a lot to do when not at the convention.

I would recommend doing it once, every nerd should...it's like Mecca for geeks.

I'll just throw in Anaheim Convention center, so I can swing by after work, lol.

I doubt i'd be able to make one unless it was Texas bound... At least this year anyways... I've never been to one either so i think it would be a really interesting experience as well as hella fun!

Edit... While playing XI i became very good friends with most LS mates and a good few would fly in to LAN up at the house and have a good time out on the town as well... Good times i'll never forget! ;)

With SE's US office in El Segundo (near LAX), having one nearby makes it easier on them.

Maybe we can ask for a future live letter.
