tyto-vulpes.deviantart.com/jou…So I got back from Denver earlier today. I had been at the Denver Tech Center attending Nan Desu Kan, this was my fifth year going...and let me tell you.....it was a huge disappointment.
Indeed I did have a lot of fun and I saw a few cool cosplays that I will most likely post pictures of at some point....but overall...the con itself...was shit.
There were honestly way too many fucking people this year, so many people that they actually stopped selling badges because they were at guest capacity.
Only about half of the people actually dressed up which has NEVER happened before in the years I've been going to NDK. It had always been 95% cosplays and 5% casual dress and this year it was half and half which fucking pissed me off so much. Also...the people who did dress up....all their costumes fucking sucked dicks. There were literally only a handful of people who actually had good costumes.
Another thing about the guests, they were all so fucking rude this year. For example I was in the dealers room looking at the VALVE table My sister was on the far end of the corner we were at looking at the Assassins Creed stuff and between me and her were these two girls looking at the Wheatley and Space Core plushies saying 'Look it's GlaDOS' eye! Look another eye!' I looked at them and I kindly explained that they were cores and the blue one is Wheatley and the orange one is the Space Core. They didn't even fucking look at me and the one closest to me actually glared in my direction with a look of 'fuck off bitch' on her face.
Like fucking seriously? I was telling you what the plushies really were since your DUMBASS couldn't remember what they actually are and I was very polite about it.
The other thing about the guests this year was the fact that a lot of people were shy and/or kept to themselves and their little group of friends. Normally people flip out and get really happy and excited and want to talk to the people they recognize, as in their costumes, and they want to take pictures and get hugs. That was all out the fuckin window this year. There were people taking pictures and the occasional hug but overall it was more rare than any other year EVER. It was frieking ridiculous.
An even bigger disappointment overall for me was definitely the fact that only ONE person took a picture of me the entire weekend and I wasn't even in costume I was in line for the rave and I was wearing my Zombie killing tank, a mask, some of my kandi bracelets and a bunch of glowsticks....
I was Finn from Adventure Time on Friday and Rigby from Regular Show on Saturday and I was wearing all my Creeper stuff on Sunday, not a single picture the entire weekend until the rave...
Fucking.
REALLY?????
I don't even care if I sound modest when I say this:
I was the best Finn out of the entire weekend.
And NO ONE wanted to take a picture of me and Ash, my sister, who was Jake the dog. I would literally pass other Adventure Time cosplays in the hallway getting their picture taken and I'm standing like two feet away going, WHAT. THE. FUCK. It didn't make any fucking sense to me and it really made me upset at the people who attended NDK this year. NDK is going downhill FAST. This year and last year were the two worst years out of my 5 years attending.
I'm still going next year but if NDK 2013 isn't any better or is even worse I will seriously consider not attending NDK 2014. It's not going to be worth wasting all my time and money on costumes and preparing for a shitty ass convention.
With all of that said, have a nice day.
