SOE Live is the name for what used to be called the Fan Faire.
Every year SOE had an event where players of their various games gather to discuss issues with the SOE staff and PARTY!
With the 2015 acquisition of SOE by Columbus Nova (becoming Daybreak Game Company), it was announced by Linda "Brasse" Carlson, Daybreak Community Manager, on her Facebook feed: "For those asking about SOE Live: we are taking a hiatus from our annual Live event to shift our focus to our exciting transition and the future of Daybreak Game Company."been announced there will be no SOE Live or similar official event in the future.
In 2015, an unofficial event was planned.
In 2020, Daybreak was sold to EG7 Global. I have not seen any announcement that I can recall changing their stance on Fan Faire.
On February 22, 2024, Darkpaw announced Fippy Fest 2024 to take place on June 15, 2024.
