I love LARPing, but I no longer have the free time or extra money to engage with it. I'm also living in a place where the hobby hasn't evolved since the 80s and all the new larps just cannibalize each other's players and rules, so I'm not interested in stretching my time or money to do it poorly.

I never knew of it, seems like a pretty fun thing to do..

Like all things it's more about the people than the actual event, but I've never had more fun than going out to a campsite for the weekend and pretending to fight evil.
