Organizers of the 2019 <a href="http://www.gdconf.com/?_mc=blog_x_gama_le_x_gdcsf_x_x-GDC19">Game Developers Conference</a> just wanted to quickly let you know about a really exciting talk at the show that’s all about how Bethesda’s new mobile <em>Elder Scrolls </em>game was designed to look great on a small screen.</p>
<p>As part of the popular GDC 2019 <a href="https://gdconf.com/summit/game-ux">UX Summit</a>, Bethesda’s own Marie Jasmin will be presenting a neat session on “<a href="https://schedule.gdconf.com/session/building-the-interface-of-the-elder-scrolls-blades-in-landscape-and-portrait/862633">Building the Interface of ‘<em>The Elder Scrolls: Blades</em>‘ in Landscape and Portrait</a>.”</p>
<p>There was no clear demand for a game that switches seamlessly between the two orientation methods, but Bethesda decided to design a game that adapted to both anyway. Why? Come out to Jasmin’s talk and you’ll get the answer, as well as a clear understanding of the benefits, the costs, the UX opportunities, and the overall level of commitment necessary to build a game UI that fully supports device orientation changes at any time. Don’t skip it!</p>
<p>For more details on this talk (and many more!) check out the <a href="https://schedule.gdconf.com/">GDC 2019 Session Scheduler</a>. There you can begin to lay out your GDC week, which takes place March 18th through the 22nd at the (newly renovated!) Moscone Center in San Francisco. </p>
