[QUOTE="Vyvyan Basterd, post: 4807618, member: 4892"] I'm not the person you asked, but since my view was similar I'll give you my response. I did not realize LARPs usually took place in private venues. I still would not play a LARP privately. I feel uncomfortable acting directly as my character. If I were to go into an actiong career it could only be as a voice actor. I am not entirely inflexible. I tried a murder-mystery dinner at a hotel down in Orlando and I felt totally out of place. I did not enjoy myself at all. And it had nothing to do with the quality (or lack thereof). My wife liked it. My discomfort ruined my own experience. So in my case, it's Me not LARPs. (A side issue is LARPs with non-modern costumes. I find it difficult to come up with a costume. I become a perfectionist. I want my costume to be perfect or I don't want to wear one at all. This is why I've never dressed for the Ren Faire or Rocky Horror Picture Show even though I thouroughly enjoy both. I also finally comlpeted my first Halloween costume in roughly 20 years.) [/QUOTE]
