The previous weekend signified both the start and end of DreamHack Winter this year, boasting a total of about 13,000 visitors going in and out the exhibition doors during. It meant another chance for me to get up close and personal with the people behind the nicks of
Aion Online Sverige (that’s our beloved Swedish Aion fansite).
One of the exhibition halls.
I forgot the battery charger for my own camera at home and had to spend the preceding few days looking to buy a new one at a decent price. Unfortunately I didn’t find any, and I managed to lose the battery somewhere while at it. In other words, check out some pictures AoS grabbed from the event over in their
event section instead.

As a total surprise I brought a laptop with Aion playable for those who weren’t able to make it to Leipzig this year. Needless to say, the affection was immediate.

After getting rid of the initial Aion-twitches, we headed outside the exhibition area to grab a bite, courtesy of NCsoft.

You will be surprised to find that DreamHack takes place far out in the suburban concrete woods of Jönköping, Sweden, and as such is located painfully far away from anywhere with great food. We ended up taking up all the chairs and tables of a fast food place where paper plates and plastic cutlery had been put out to celebrate the occasion.
To sum it up, I had great fun hanging out with everyone, grabbing the group picture and trying to write AION with human bodies in front of the camera. Definitely looking forward to meeting everyone again next year!
Stay smooth and remain jacked in to the Aion matrix.
That is all!
