"It doesn't feel safe"–Many international game developers plan to skip GDC in US
- andsoitis 8mo agoThere’s an opportunity for someone to set up a GGDC (Global Game Dev Conference). Canada or somewhere in Europe would be very appealing.
- pjmlp 8mo agoThere are already several ones in Europe.
- wolvoleo 8mo agoSame here. I'm not in the gaming industry but I'll refuse going to the US for work these days. Not that that happens a lot because I work for an EU company, but we do have a sizeable US presence. But just no, I'm not willing to travel there anymore. I'm very 'woke' by US and even European standards so I just wouldn't feel safe there. I don't expect any problems with my employer even if I'd be asked to go and refuse.
- rbanffy 8mo agoIt might be a good time to move PyCon US to Canada again.
- MrGuts 8mo agoI live in America, and even I want to skip America.

- thebruce87m 8mo agoYeah, definitely not taking the risk with personal travel at all - especially travelling with young children. Sorry but Disneyland will have to wait until the next election. Work would have to promise to pay me even if a hired goon locked me up for a few months before I’d consider a business trip.
