/cgl/ - Cosplay & EGL

I actually dipped on Saturday trucked my ass home this afternoon.

My final verdict on the con? It was shit. Objectively worse than last year with little or nothing for someone with my interests to look into. The price increase from last year was NOT justified with the amount of content on the floor.

The panels were lackluster, the show floor was lacking some of the biggest names in gaming, and there were like no publishers and dev's on the floor.

Indie dev's don't count for me, because I rarely give two shits about the dozens upon dozens of mobile games flooded onto the market by these guys. The last real indie game I was excited for was Mercenary Kings, and frankly, I didn't enjoy it one bit.

Granted, I'm mostly a console gamer. And I can acknowledge the fact that this year was the year for MOBA's all around. Seeing Nigri push whatever newest MOBA is coming out only solidified my suspicions.

Aside from the concerts, there wasn't even a single panel that really blew me away.

I am gravely disappointed. And my friends and I all agree that if we did not cosplay this year, it would have been the worst PAX we've ever been to.

As far as the Cosplay Scene goes, it was great.

Met a lot of cool people and had a lot of fun discussing cosplay with others.

Getting pulled aside by the Naughty Dog developers was especially cool.

I was kind of dissapointed with the variety of cosplays this years. Even though it's a videogame convention, I always have run into dozens of people from TV shows, anime's and cartoons. This time around it felt as if everyone and their dog was doing some sort of league cosplay.
