June 30 - July 1, 2015    Barcelona , Spain
180+ people met in London last year, where we focused on automation, hearing some fantastic talks & examples of the how, when & why of implementation. While automation is still a hot subject in both fields, this year with our change of scenery we also welcome a change of perspective. Let’s examine the role and place QA and loc have within game development; while historically seen as a ‘necessary evil’, these days it feels like we’ve finally turned a corner, entering a new era where quality and immersion – both outcomes of effective QA and localisation – are actual selling points for games, even going as far as differentiating against competition. Yet why is it that both internally & externally the old perception of being the outsiders, or not as critical to the end result, still commonly persists? This year we look to discuss that role that these essential functions play in the bigger picture, and to equip ourselves with the ammunition and confidence to sell our functions and demonstrate their ROI; both to studio or publisher exec and – eventually – to the public. Of course, we will also discuss the ever-important matters of planning, budgeting, team culture and people management, best practices and further thoughts on automation, continuing in our mission to help raise the bar for the quality of QA and localisation throughout the games industry.
