If you have any questions about materials covered during any of my panels, feel free to ping me. You can email me at krystalle AT massively DOT com, or say hello on Twitter.
Hopefully, we’ll see you all next year!
Dragon*con was awesome, the quality of the MMO-Track was much higher then previous years. I think because it wasn’t as cluttered and thus allowed for more quality and a little less quantity.
Going to be interesting to see how the MMO-Track is going to handle space if any MMO ever gets as big as WoW. You’d be packing the ballroom all con long.
Thanks both for this incredibly useful post with all the good links and for being awesome at running the track is year. MMO track ROCKED 2010, for real! Every track staff member should be DAMN PROUD.
Also, here is the video of the Kingdom of Loathing panel with the demo of the new game.
I Couldn’t find this info everywhere else on the World-wide-web, kudos so much for posting it.
