@HotaruHino Mostly same. I did go for the Endfield booth and got what I wanted out of it. A lot of the other was “oh that’s nice”
AX is pretty much “try to meet with friends randomly” as it’s fun bit
AX 26 bits
Day 1: saw the “viral” line, it looked like onsite reg. Got in 8 mins through the side in afternoon, didn’t seem as crowded but more people at 4pm
Day 2: was the worst on crowds for me imo. Choke point and packed AA/Exhibit combo.
Day 3: didn’t go
Day 4: workable
The weirdos portion, I’ve heard more questionable stalking / sex hara type behavior this time around within friend groups. Never an excuse, whether a con or not.
But happening ig because AX is so big, more people increases the possibility.
Feels like there’s a generational shift in crowd. A chunk of the people I know, has grown out of the con. Room and lobby hangout/parties are less of a thing. Large after parties in public are trying to be a thing. Monetization of “things/services” when questionable. More weirdos.
