The last day of Con is always the worst. First, because it comes after the last night of Con, which is usually filled with too much drinking and staying up way too late. Then there is the packing in order to check out before getting dinged for another day stay. And as bad as you feel, any panelists feel worse, because not only do they have the same issues you do, but they also have to be on panels. The last day of Con is always the slowest.
After getting the car packed and heading back in, I made another trip through the dealer and exhibitor rooms. After a few days of saying there was nothing worth seeing you might wonder why I would go back… well, being the last day, many sellers weigh the expense of hauling back product versus cutting the price. So, its no surprise on Monday at Dragon*Con to see 20%… 50%… or higher signs. See, if you buy early, you pay more, but you will get your item. If you wait, you might pay less, or you might be too late. I found a stall selling RPG materials, all items $2, so I picked up random curiosities, like the Starship Troopers pen and paper game. I wouldn’t pay the normal price, but for $2? Hells yeah!
Then it was off to the panels… Free MMOs was up first. There are lots, most of them look like crap (to me, anything anime is crap, I hate that style, all asian MMOs, free or not free, are boring soulless garbage), but some don’t.
And the pen and paper game Aftermath! has been licensed for an MMO. I heart the apocalypse, so I hope they succeed.
With those last panels out of the way, it was time to head home and sleep…
