DYGYCON Feedback

Participants of every DYGYCON have alot to say about how successful our events are as well as envisioning the outlook of future experiences in the metaverse.

DYGYCON 7 Feedback:

I discovered Dygycon on Twitter and the games/companies that are having a booth there. I grabbed my car keys and was hoping the location would be near me so i would start driving. I was looking at the website gamerjibe where the DYGYCON event being held and saw the option join virtual space. I could not believe it that something like this was possible specially now during strange times with all the restrictions. This was a first time for me to enter the virtual space and be able to chat and have a look at the new projects and learn more from them.
Attending DYGYCON has always been an interesting experience. Every event has new things, new people to meet. New features from Gamerjibe are always a bonus. I always appreciate how there's so much interaction going on during DYGYCON and that's something I always look forward to! - @arcgspy
It was a wonderful experience to attend this virtual event. It would have been great to include more interactive sessions in the event. Will definitely be attending such events in future 🙂🙂🙂
Everything seemed very simple and organized. Logging into the event, getting around, getting assistance, interacting with others and the bots, all worked great. It was like going to a live trade show.
I've attended (and spoken at) various tech conferences in the past and miss the personal interaction. While I've been a bit shy about talking to people at Dygycon as I'm not networking in the NFT space for professional purposes right now, I'd love to see tech conferences adopt the GamerJibe platform to make conferences more relatable. Maybe something like my local Google Dev meetup would be a good fit. I think Dygycon is a trailblazer and we'll look back at how it paved the way for better interaction in this and many other communities!

Feedback Suggestions

Among the suggestions received included some ways DYGYCON and virtual engagements like this can improve. Below are a handful of suggestions from the last event. Our team is working together with the @Gamerjibe team to be able to implement constant updates to the venue with all feedback received in mind.

Have movies (on public domain) going. Create a drive-in cinema or open air cinema so people can enjoy a classic; on the club have music videos playing (by new artists that submit them); have a JungleTV venue where people can watch JungleTV live but as part of the event - with accompanying swag! Plus, more booths by other companies/projects.
Keep up the momentum: good balance between lecture time and side activities
More interactivity in the booths. Maybe a way for the booths to be able to show off NFTs or offer live streams. The live audio when you stepped into a booth was cool. So if you could add the interactive social video component to that it would feel more like a live conference.
Example: Jump into the Metaforce booth to ask Recourier how the blending of champions works and see him on camera answering the questions. Or catch a Live stream of NFT Gamer TV on twitch giving commentary about Dygycon live. Another cool feature would be to add a web browser in an iframe so you can check out Specific web Pages the booth may want to present. Such as filling out forms for contests without leaving the VR atmosphere. Or presenting a marketing page. I would be looking for something that would be more dynamic than just a video or a slide show.
You need to make people talk to each other, I couldn’t do that I’m virtushy still, so make me do it by some good prizes etc :)
Should make it more clear what games are available though a pre-event blog post. Not vendors but actual games that can be played in the event. And some swag that is guaranteed even if it is something small. Some people never win anything. And you see others win all the time especially in certain streams. Can really discourage a person from wanting to take part in a community as they feel they have no chance to win. Some people have very little so even what may seem like a small prize to some is giant to others.
