A year and a half later, there was another big

A year and a half later, there was another big event, this time the Venture Bros. League, which included a large "Latch" event and a multi-platform online event offering up $10,000 in prizes to players who took part in the $250,000 "Ranking the Top 100" series with the help of a Kickstarter campaign.

So I was curious how this year's Venture Bros. League would go (and did a few different things, including a challenge to a fan favorite The Legend of Zelda: Breath of the Wild, and other "Ranking the Top 100" games). I picked up the game at the convention center in Austin, then headed to the big booth to get a look at the series. While the video booth was pretty much empty, I noticed that a few other attendees had already been there. I didn't find out until hours later that the event was going to be live-streamed, but it seemed to be an easy way to grab some free tickets for the two event panels. I was surprised by how much people were looking forward to seeing the show itself, but it wasn't until around 9:30pm that I saw a livestream of the series. The stream began just after 3:00pm, but I was soon able to get my hands on the stream by 1:00pm, and by around 10:00pm, my entire livestream had already been watched. I was able to watch a few of the panels and a couple of the panels ended without having to watch the "Latch" panels, but the other panels are still pretty fun to watch for a few bucks.

The show itself was a mix of both "Twilight" and "The Legend of Zelda: Breath of the Wild" as well as a few other series from the Vulture studio, although it doesn't seem like there was much interest in the first season. And of course, it seemed like a "Legends of Zelda" season, with the series being made available to any audience at all. I was really, really blown away by how many attendees there were.

But for what it's worth, I was also amazed to see some of the other "Frozen" panelists and actors. I was not impressed by the lack of Frozen costumes, though I do know that there were some that were pretty good at it. The fact that the show went online and made it live on streaming was definitely a big deal. However
