I’ve been going to Igromir for 8 years now and I never remember that there wasn’t a huge queue. And okay inside, I’m talking about the monstrous queue several kilometers long to enter the building. But this time she wasn’t there. At all. At 10:30 we calmly walked inside, both on Friday and Sunday. This (fortunately or unfortunately) is where the changes ended. Otherwise, it’s still the same good old gaming world with freebies for which you need to stand for several hours at the stand, with half-naked cosplayers, with a crowd of schoolchildren moving from hall to hall and now, which has already become traditional, a stopgame meeting. But first things first.
Cosplay
Let’s start right away with the tasty stuff. What to expect?)
The cosplay was not only good.
It seems the Joker wants to be taken away from here.
The ladies campaigned for the continuation of Agents of Ankle, let’s support them or something? The movie was really good!
This shot was met on Red Square. He says he escaped from Igromir. Boring.
It was often difficult to distinguish “official” cosplayers from amateurs. This is official. Above are amateurs.
The guys have airsoft guns, and the night vision devices are working. There were quite a lot of airsoft players. Cosplay is easiest for them.
Cosplayers often took photos with other cosplayers. Why not?
Titanium Autumn 2 is just around the corner!
I’m in this state, but this is not the end yet!
Where would we be without fat Batman??
I’ll add more later!
It all started as usual. The main part of the SG Collective is located in its places.
Then they announced the return of Retrozor in the style of the first season and played a beautiful framed screenshot from The Witcher 3.
Questions followed. Lots of questions. Lots of STUPID questions.
Questions were asked not only by ordinary people, but also by Woman Kratos
After the announcement of the https://casino-royale.uk/withdrawal/ history of the Mafia and PE7 series, the time in the hall came to an end and the team went out to sign autographs. SO many people followed them.
There’s a queue for the main authors. Here you can see at most a third of it (and this is not the very beginning). Yes, there were SO many people.
It’s hard to imagine how the editors themselves felt.
They signed mainly on such posters. I won’t show it with captions, look at the pristine version.
Almost the entire team was “tame” and calmly allowed themselves to be photographed. However, almost no one approached Kate until she put on the SG T-shirt(
Galuza, news people and reviewers generally stood aside. Nobody approached them, they didn’t take pictures with them and rarely took autographs. Correcting the situation! (you need to know the heroes by sight!)
Gray Cardinal SG!
Daur is cheerful and fresh, like the morning Infact!
Daur and Kate really look great together! (I’m not hinting at anything)
The rest had to be caught after the autograph session.
The last one to catch cosplayer Kostya
And the real Kostya.
At this point (unfortunately), the meeting could be considered officially completed.
Epilogue
Igromir went great. Many familiar and new faces, and simply interesting people. I haven’t seen so many cosplayers and such a display of colors for a long time. Games have taken a back seat because of all this. But we shouldn’t forget about them and Comic-Con. We will definitely talk about them. Some other time. That’s all for today. I was with you, Sergey Zaslavsky, and see you on the Stop-e-Game-e-ru website!
PS. This is not the end yet, when I have time I will post even more photos of the editors and cosplayers, as well as impressions of the games played and VR, come back in the evening. Best wishes!)
Best comments
news reporters and reviewers generally stood aside. Nobody approached them, they didn’t take pictures with them and rarely took autographs. Correcting the situation! (you need to know the heroes by sight!)
Damn, why didn’t I find out if they were there, I wanted to run around, I would have gotten everyone’s signature 🙁
Thanks for the extensive photo report! I just can’t go to Igromir, but at least it’s nice to see it like this.
Galuza, news people and reviewers generally stood aside. Nobody approached them, they didn’t take pictures with them and rarely took autographs.
I don’t know how everything is, actually I know, it’s just an appropriate turn of phrase, and I spent almost the entire unofficial part with them. And this was the most brilliant part of the gathering, and of the whole Igromir.)
I was very pleased with the photo of Daur and Katya – because in the next post there is a photo of how Daur and Katya are photographed.
And okay inside, I’m talking about the monstrous queue several kilometers long to enter the building. But this time she wasn’t there. At all.
in another report they wrote about a huge queue. and who to believe?
but in general it’s interesting, of course. at least in fragments from different sources, restore an event that you were not at.
It’s like yes. The conversation with Daur and Kate is always the most heartfelt. Not because everyone else is so bad, but rather because they are up to their ears and rushing around the gaming world with dazed eyes and a camera in front of them.
Same inside. I stood on the sorcery for 1.5 hours on Friday, on PS VR Driveclub for about an hour, but I joined friends who were in the middle of the line. A friend played Resident Evil 7 for almost 6 hours. We also joined him at the last moment. If you don’t wait in line, it’s simply impossible to get to most of the games (especially the coolest and most interesting ones).
Kostya has changed, yes. His face became wider)
with water and cookies – really cool. Usually they don’t let you bring anything with you, they say, buy it at the food court. you approach the food court, and there is a queue of over 9000 people and the prices are astronomical. and pain comes. but here we took into account the target audience and its solvency (no offense) and made the right conclusions.
They also distributed energy drinks on some kind of industrial scale, the whole world smelled of them. When I have time, I’ll update the post with a text version of my adventures on Igromir.
this is a simulator of Soviet and perestroika queues? see the line and stand in it, otherwise suddenly there’s something cool there and you’re not aware of it?
They just don’t tell you about the most important joke – you come to the Soft Club hall (Soft Club hall is M-Video, Rezik, Tekenn, Mafia, Dawn War, etc.d.) and they give you a promotional book – and at the end of the book there is a place for stamps – there are only 13 of them – according to the number of stands with games, and you need to collect 10 stamps in order to take them to a separate Soft Club stand and receive a prize there, and then take part in the super prize drawing at 17:20. A stamp is given if you played on the stand or watched a video. In general, this is the most brutal hardcore – 10 stamps, the exhibition is open from 10 to 18 o’clock, and there are half-hour-hour-long queues. I was just wondering if anyone has collected a complete stamp collection? )))
Actually, it would be fun if you had to queue at Igromir, to queue at the PS4 booth, to queue at Tomorrow Children.

. But at least we could have crossed paths (especially since we didn’t go to Igromir on Saturday and walked around the city).
Well, how can I say – if you are a fan of queues, then Igromir is your thing – the queues start from the entrance – an hour – sometimes it was even difficult to walk around the hall. I still had time to quickly go through Warhammer 40,000 and play a little. For Mafia 3, when handing out tickets, I was almost killed there – I felt what blacks feel when the Red Cross issues humanitarian aid. I watched the crazy video of Mafia 3, went out, saw the wildest lines everywhere, scored and went to the Central Museum of the Great Patriotic War. That’s how I got onto Igromir. There is nothing to do there – no exhibition found in queues.
And Comic Con, as always, is an attempt to sell a bunch of stuff to fans. But there he grabbed three promotional titles for Carcassonne. That’s it.
Probably, few people agreed to rush around the city with me – I left the hotel at 8-9 o’clock in the morning, and came there only at 9 o’clock in the evening – the rest of the time – constantly on the move, on foot, by bicycle and by Metro throughout Moscow.
Hm. You can grumble about their harm, but it’s pointless, because.To. Every day, even without them, a lot of harmful crap is eaten. and advertising, PR and all that is our everything. and a freebie, of course.
