Humans are creatures that love behind-the-scenes pictures, stories, gossip, and whatnot. Well, you are about to read about one.
Aaron Greenberg, known as the Marketing Boss at Xbox, has posted stories and photos of the Microsoft-Bethesda event, showing us what was happening behind the scenes. He tweeted that this was not easy to do, especially in a pandemic, in a safe way, but they somehow did it.
From the photos and stories, we can see that some joined the event remotely, while others were there in-person. Greenberg and Phil Spencer went to Bethesda HQ, Maryland, where they got tested for COVID-19, which came back negative. Once they landed, they got another test for safety precautions.
Greenberg said that he was extremely excited to get on this business trip, the first in a whole year, and the offices over at Bethesda were very cool and filled with gaming items that made him go into fanboy mode.
As for the event, it was not scripted, the team over at Bethesda did not rehearse before the main event, but there was a plan on which topics were to be discussed.
“At one point Todd Howard looked at me and smiled as he started to make paper airplanes with the ‘notes’ which inspired me to launch one that flew right by him as we all laughed and put the notes away,” – Greenberg tweeted on his profile.
