The German government prohibited all major/big events until August 30.
Gamescom will be digital only.
An official statement hat not been made but a tweet.

So no meeting with you this year.

My first year at the Gamescom was 2012 with EvilDragon and the Pandora.
It's the first time since then I won't be there.

Be alright everyone and have a good time.
Hope we'll meet again at better times :)
 
If there would just be some place where we could digitaly met.....
 
ED has done live-streams before. But I wouldn't mind one of his regular videos either.

No Gamescom 2020 was expected though, I couldn't imagine they would let such a big party go on.
I do enjoy going, and I wasn't informed yet by Gamescom that it's officially cancelled.
 
That reminds me of this video, french guy calling a party-shop and asking if it's a shop for parties. Then brings a bus full of people to party in the shop.

Maybe check first how many people would come before you would do such a thing :)
 
I kind of expected this to happen, but it's quite the shame. After 5 years in a row of helping out it's been kind of the regular thing to look forward to every year.
Ah well, maybe 2021. With my own Pyra by that time, fairly certain on that one.

I'm not sure what a digital gamecom could be other than a set of trailers, which already get posted to youtube at about the same time anyway.

Maybe they could add live presentations... with interaction for questions...
