ZandraJoi Posted November 20, 2021 Share Posted November 20, 2021 A live action role-playing game is a form of role-playing game where the participants physically portray their characters. Abbreviated to LARP. From what I understand, it’s set apart from cosplay as it deals with performance art rather than visual art. I only heard of this on a recent TV show I watched. So I was wondering who has tried this & what did you think? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
killamch89 Posted November 20, 2021 Share Posted November 20, 2021 No, I have never tried this and to be honest, I'm not too enthused by it at all. Some people might like it but honestly, it's just not really my thing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
m76 Posted November 20, 2021 Share Posted November 20, 2021 We all roleplayed as kids,it's part of being a kid, playing cowboy, firefighter, builder, or whatever. I don't think it would be quite as fun as an adult. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I personally think it just looks very clumsy and awkward as an adult. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Justin11 Posted November 30, 2021 Share Posted November 30, 2021 Sure, we all roleplayed during childhood when we watch lots of Hollywood movie we simply act like the main protagonist of the movie IRL and becoming some of his or her martial arts.

I can remember seeing a video on Instagram where a father was role playing Star Wars with his son and it was so hilarious. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I believe that I actually saw a video like that as well on Instagram where the father and the son we are actually shooting each other and the father first hit the son and the son fell pretending to be dead, when the father was about to check up on him and he shot him then as well. It was quite hilarious. Heatman 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He never expected that kind of trick from the young lad. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Justin11 Posted December 1, 2021 Share Posted December 1, 2021 Hmm, why did the child take such bold step in the movie to shoot his dad at the forehead? Something must have caused it, I simply need someone to throw more light to me. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Like when you are acting to be someone's else after watching the person? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's how the son tricked the dad to shoot him. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
