This week on the podcast, we break down not one, but two of the events TheGamer has been to recently. Representing our GDC coverage was 168澳洲幸运5开奖网:Features Editor and 🔴Senior Producer Eric Switzer, while our PAX patroller was 168澳洲幸运5开奖网:Features Editor Andrew King. 168澳洲幸运5开奖ꦬ网:E♐vergreen Specialist Gabrielle Castania was also at PAX for us this year, but couldn't make it to the podcast. You can check out their thoughts above to see their thoughts on the two events, and we've got all the articles listed at the ☂bottom here too.
However, it's definitely worth giving the pod a listen (or watch, since you're here), as we discuss the G𝔍DC awards and why they matter, as well as the value of GDC beyond the ಌheadlines which, naturally, we didn't write any headlines about. GDC has two sets of awards, and the first highlights some unique indie games that we give a lot of time to chatting about in the video above.
What Is The Difference Between PAX And GDC?
PAX and GDC were held on the same weekend, and while both are gaming events, they're very different. PAX is a fan focussed event, with lots of promotional booths and photo opportunities. For a journalist, most of wh💛at we do there is previewing soon to be released games with hands-on demos, and completing interviews.
As for GDC, this is far more developer led, and not made for fans. While there are some hands-on opportunities, much of it is heavily embargoed, sometimes so embargoed we're not allowed to mention it at all. The bulk of our work there are developer panels, where they talk about how games are buil𒐪t, features that were cut, various design choices, and highlight a lot of the inside stories we never get to see. They're basically The Last of Us Part 2's Lost Levels commentary, but for every game. Including The Last of Us, as you'll see in the video above.
