Is anyone else going this year- and what are you looking forward to most?

I think there are still a handful of tickets left, and it looks like it'll be good. The Dark Room live action video game has me particularly intrigued...

I greatly admire that AdventureX has existed since 2011. To have it running for that long easily shows how dedicated and passionate adventure game enthusiasts are. Furthermore, it's a non-profit event organised by volunteers, which is also very impressive. Unfortunately, I'm unlikely to ever purchase a ticket to AdventureX because the substantial travelling distance from Australia makes it too impractical.

Not to mention the cost and hassle. If not for the myriad difficulties, I would love to attend. I did go to E3 a couple times many years ago, and it was fun and hectic and flashy and not much devoted to AGs. This one looks like fun in a different way, more like a gathering of friends or incipient friends.

Is E3 good to go to? I get the impression it's kind of a very flashy trades show? I've only been to one previous AdvX and, yeah, it definitely had a friendly cosy atmosphere.

lol, I don't judge!

My wife and I will be there. It'll be our third AdventureX - we got to exhibit at the last one in 2023. Looking forward to actually having time to attend some talks and play some games this time!

Oh, yes, I remember seeing you both! Can't remember if I said hi
Hope you have a good chilled one this year then.

E3 is no more these days: https://www.gamesindustry.biz/e3-is-dead-now-what
It's a bit of a shame it's gone, but somewhat understandable given it lost relevance in the 2010s.
