Dragon Con Video Gaming Track

The applications for Guests, Attending Professionals, and Performers open in just a few weeks! Who do you hope to see at #DragonCon2026?

This year, Labor Day was the earliest it could be, the 1st. Next year, Labor Day will be the latest it can be, the 7th. So this year will be the longest time you'll have to finish your @dragoncon.org cosplays, or the most amount of time you can put off working on them.

For those of you that were asking about the slides for the #DragonCon2025 FFXIV RP 101 panel, they have been added to the list of resources at dcon.roleplay.events.

This is the same link that the QR code from the end of the panel contained. A recording -may- be redone at a later date.

On Episode 948 of my video game podcast, I'll be talking about my time at Dragon Con as well as a valid case for the existence of digital preorders thanks to Silksong. We also wonder if Silksong's price will hurt other indie developers who can't afford to charge only $20. twitch.tv/VOGNetwork

Bobby is live now and OLR is back tonight right after! I'll be talking about DragonCon and although the gaming news is pretty sparse (what's up??) we have some things to talk about with you in chat. Of course, we're primed to go off the rails on a slow news week :P www.twitch.tv/VOGNetwork

The #FFXIV community showed up strong at the Sprout Social during #DragonCon2025 and turned their $ into DPS to take down the dreaded Yan that threatened to wipe the entire event! In just under 2 hours, we crushed our goal and overall raised over $1700 for #NAMIGeorgia, the 2025 #DragonConCharity!

Speaking of the app--don't forget to rate all the panels and give us your feedback in the app! This is the best way to help tell us how we're doing, what you loved, and how we can improve!!
