I've been in roleplaying circles for decades and I have never, ever heard a positive story about a White Wolf LARP

The one larp I ever participated in, my friend played a cat phouka changeling and just roamed around the play area on roller skates. I played a dog phouka changeling chasing him. I would wander up to random broody vampires and ask them if they've seen my cat, and then "spot" him in the distance and go running off again. There was some locally important drama plot going on but gently caress if I know what it was.

fun hater posted:ive only played the video game which is good. its also really bad and unplayable. but its also the greatest game ever made wesp's obsessively maintained patch made it wayyyyyy more playable a while back and keeps updating textures and assets to make it not feel quite so ancient and added in a bunch of QoL and also and easily opt-outable restrored/extra content. If you haven't played it in a while it's worth giving it a run through with that. Looks like it got a new update 2 months ago, there's some new "replay level as a vampire hunter" mode?: https://www.moddb.com/mods/vtmb-unofficial-patch

Smirking_Serpent posted:do y’all think Bloodlines 2 will ever come out? The snippets of in-engine cutscenes or combat from like 3 years ago looked like reheated Xbox 360 era graphics, so I wasn't surprised when they yanked it from that studio. Did they ever confirm where they sent the project after that? They were being super hush-hush about who it was passed to for the longest time. So yeah, unless another trailer appears, I'm going to assume it's dead. Psycho Landlord posted:Just a wild group of people lol, essentially pentyne posted:It was so bad Paradox revoked WW's permissions to approve publishing of their own books. Honestly it's been weird the past 5 years seeing pen and paper RPG bullshit hit semi-mainstream news. It's probably a good sign the community is growing, but that VtM drama or the stuff around Wizards of the Coast lately being actual Topics of Interest is surreal. Not like, majorly important stuff, but comparable to divisive Call of Duty DLC or outrage over the most recent interchangeable mid-quality open world game, versus deafening indifference outside of a shallow pool of extremely online dweebs.

The only White Wolf larpers I ever met had a run in with the cops where somebody was tying up their girlfriend in a playground as part of a scene and had one of their members get arrested by the department of homeland security in a pedophile sting operation.

The way you write this makes it sound as though those things happened at the same time ... Did they?

the one time I tried a white wolf game (World of Darkness) I thought it was cool because the system felt better to use than D&D (3.5 at the time) Then I played vtm bloodlines and was like gently caress yes this poo poo is awesome but then I found out about the larping and uhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh nope

RyokoTK posted:how loving insensitive and stupid can you be, good grief lmao Allegedly, the writer of that particular plot point had a gay friend who was tortured and killed in Chechnya, and included it to raise awareness. There was supposed to be a sidebar explaining that it was a real thing, and the writer's personal connection, etc, but it was dropped in editing. This is all from a r/hobbydrama post that sources a 4 year old reddit comment, so take that with a handful of salt, as it may be completely fabricated.

I think even if that's true (no idea either way), why would you have that be caused by vampire overlords and not like just use that as a setting backdrop or just have characters fleeing from Chevhnya or something? Worst way to do that still lol

If you really know them you can tell them to knock it off, but for strangers like just hit the bricks. Do not endure that, it will only go badly. Anyone who is so self-unaware that they even accidentally (not to mention purposely) do that is not to be trusted. I'm dead serious, its never went well when someone tries to stick it out, leave if you see it.

Not sure if this is the same LARP as you're all talking about but it involves goons and vampires and, most importantly, burritos, so I'm sharing it anyway.Bassetking posted:This next one took place about twelve years ago. Specific Mechanical Details may be fuzzy, and for that, I apologize. It is, however, a WoD LARP story, and one I've been meaning to post to a Cat Piss thread since I joined SA.

I vant to drink your diet coooooooke Edit: my LARPing experience was cool and good (by which I absolutely mean shameful and nerdy) but somehow we avoided a lot of that creepy weirdness, probably because we ran pre-written games which don’t appeal to people who want to create the greatest most tragic Mary Sue/Marty Stu ever We just burnt the gently caress out of the people who wrote them, because it was an exhausting and stressful experience fewer and fewer people wanted to do until eventually we stopped doing them skeleton warrior fucked around with this message at 02:13 on May 1, 2023 |
