Hey everyone, I hope you are all doing well.
I"m officially BACK from PAX WEST 2025 and I had a BLAST.
That was amazing. The panels, the people, the tabletop, the games, the cosplay, and above everything thought it was just the atmosphere of being there with everyone. I really enjoyed seeing all of the Final Fantasy/ Persona / Clair Obscure cosplay around me, you guys are all so creative!
Some of the panels were incredibly inspiring, especially watching Gabe and Tycho make a comic live on stage, I found them both inspiring and all together hilarious. I think I love them.
Lots of cool games, Pragmata and Resident Evil were among the bigger titles there, the lines were long but I thought Pragmata was very worth it. Resident evil is great, but the demo wasn't for me.
Borderlands 4 was there, they had a smashing room for people to take their rage out on things and smash stuff. Didn't try that, but I player the game with a group of friends and it was a blast!
For tabletop I played a lot of random new games, I don't remember a lot of the names of them but they were fun! The one I played the most was called Flip7 which was a simple, yet addicting card game similar to blackjack. So many people would walk up and join in and we had a big group going after a while! Loved it :D
I did get to play Silksong, which was INSANE, and very very lucky. PAX only had 4 demo units for Silksong and the lineup was extremely long to get into their booth to play any of their games. The catch was, you ONLY got to play Silksong specifically if a Nintendo person came up to you while you were in line and gave you a card.
I waited in line for 2 and a half hours, but I eventually was handed a card and I got to play! And now, I can't wait for the full game to come out on Thursday, I'm beyond excited for that :D
Anyway, I have more plans to lay out for this month, but I'm going to do so on my Patreon and Subscribestar as it has more to do with that then here on Newgrounds. Lots of work is going to be coming out soon, so stay tuned for some new pieces!
