I think there's some argument for a big session zero as a club for gamers, who don't game. Just a place for gamers to meet up and discuss games and meet gamers, with no expectation anyone is going to play at all. So people can meet other gamers and generally spur of and create groups. I have no idea how this would work as I am a misanthropic sociophobe. And increasingly deaf :)
I do like the concept of "Session Zero writ large" though

@Printdevil @pteryx @Taskerland I think this was one of the ideas behind gaming fora in the early 2000s, everyone talks about stuff and then some people split off and play a game. Only they didn't.

@Printdevil @Taskerland I do have to wonder if there's some of that out this way but it just involves alcohol and therefore does not involve me. Seriously, this is the kind of place where you can easily find beer and pretzels games with literal beer and pretzels, if you know where to look and can actually concentrate when there's distant chatter in all directions.
