[QUOTE="Zappo, post: 1404789, member: 633"] First time I LARPed, it was at a con, a Vampire LARP, and it ended in a bloodbath where half the players (eer, characters) lost their unlives. Fun, but not what I expected and not what I was hoping. :D Second time, it was to be a new Vampire LARP campaign (yeah, chronicle, whatever). Turns out that me and one other new guy were the only ones who actually had new characters for this new campaign, all the rest were using old and uber characters from previous campaigns. On top of that, they brought their old plots and feuds as well, and I couldn't understand anything of what was going on. Apart from that, the game had heaps of politics and nothing else, and all characters were extremely two-dimensional and similar to each other. I got severely bored after two sessions and left. I'm not interested in more combat-oriented LARPs; I was ready to put up with the goth genre only because I hoped for good roleplaying, but having seen none I don't think there will be a third time in the near future.
