People don't even show up for 2 hours, how they are going to come for gaming or overnight meet.

Because a well planned meetup in advance, with proper equipment, team and resources have in past been very successful.

We have done this around 4-5 times before aswell, its not like its the first time I am suggesting this.

And this formula works pretty darn well all around the world.

What I think is that even if 10 guys are confirmed to come, arrangement can be done for gaming meetup. But here you can see that thread was made mid of march, around 10-12 people were interested out of which 9 showed up. And this meetup was after 10 months of Ramdan'15 meetup.

I hope we can make a overnight PG meetup successful.

the difference is simple. Taking initiative and ownership of this platform.
on PakGamers, everyone is completely equal, if you take some responsibility, manage this thing, resources can be provided and accumulated. The last time we used to do it, we would call eachother and say okey we need this this and this, who can bring what and what can we do about it

Ownership of an idea and being non-lazy will yield so much success..nothing else will

    You reap what you sow. This is what happens when you take away choice from consumers. Even with 88% split going to developers, they can't recoup costs. Meanwhile, Helldivers 2 is a massive hit for Sony thanks in big part to Steam.
