Wait, PAX was in March? What even happened at it?

Honestly, there was no notable games available to demo from the AAA guys. Yeah, there was the announcement of Borderlands 3 but the hype train stopped on that once we learned it's being delayed on PC by 6 months. The two biggest ones were Days Gone & FF XIV's new expansion. Nintendo's booth was always packed, so I couldn't do Yoshi's Crafted World.

The concerts were lackluster. The only panel I was interested was UpUpDownDown's live version of their D&D series Rollout and that was rather good. This time around the show felt geared towards streamers and eSports, which I am kinda okay with cause I do enjoy watching OverWatch League and I would like to see OWL grow. Facebook Gaming at least brought the Oculus Rift this year, but they had a ton of "Facebook Gaming Streamers" which I didn't even know was a thing. Discord/Twitch had another lounge on the show floor which was totally unnecessary. There were a ton of stages for gaming on the show floor which was unnecessary, those could have been in one of the side rooms.

Overall there just wasn't a lot of notable items of note there. Last year was lackluster too. I'm debating if I could justify doing two days again.
