    Maybe he was starting to recede and just went for it?

    I know if I ever start going noticeably bald, that's what I'm gonna do.

    I'm hoping that with South a success, the "increasing supply" part will finally start to take hold here in the US. It would probably help if South could attract the same exhibitors Prime does, though. (I heard East was kinda scarce in this regard as well this year, but I'm not sure if that's normal or not for East?)

    At some point it's not worth it to exhibitors to keep hauling their booths around the country year round

    East was also the same week as GDC this year.

    I see what you're saying

    Open a single MegaPAX and keep it running forever

    No more booth hauling!

  • PerrsunPerrsun Registered User regular
    Yeah, South felt sparse. The biggest booth in the expo hall (square-footage-wise) seemed to be Twitch. Felt weird without some of the people that I've seen time and again at East.

    presumably this is why they've tried to keep it near where developers are

    seattle and boston are decent sized hubs for game developers, and austin is only an hour away from san antonio

    Well, more likely patrolling the Pacific since Europe doesn't exist, but it still works.

    Hot dogs? You can find food at your convention center that isn't Taco Del Mar or Subway?

    There's a deli on the first floor that sells pretty good hot pastrami sandwiches.

    Wasn't the first east also smaller?

    I'm sure that south will be significantly larger this year.

  • NaphtaliNaphtali Hazy + Flow SeaRegistered User regular
    I honestly liked the sparser South. It made it way easier to chill with folks

    East by comparison this year felt like we were packed in like sardines at the floor/tabletop, I'm not sure I'm actually going to do the con next year except for like sunday or something

    Not in the convention center here.

    I see them in malls, though.

    "what's that smell? are the circus elephants in town?"
