Lately I have been thinking of starting to Roleplay again, with Guild Wars 2 and the many worlds of Tyria with the possibilities for lots of fun just waiting to be taken into use.
I haven't been roleplaying for ages to be honest, since last time I gave it a go it ended up in a big misunderstanding. The guy I was roleplaying with ended up "believing" that everything he did/said to my character was towards me IRL. So of course that didn't go down well and I had to disappoint him with not marrying him IRL. One huge mess there! So ever since I have been taking my precautions!
Today I am just looking back at it all with a huge smile on my face and laughing about it, maybe you have tried something similar, and it ain't just me these things happen to?
But I am curious is Roleplaying still something people do, or is it totally back in the days with Pen and Paper?

ReplyDeleteHei! Kom over bloggen din ved en tilfeldighet, og så at jeg var i samme situasjon som deg nå. Pleide å spille D&D hele tida med vennene mine da jeg var 14-19, men så begynte vi alle sammen å studere og få jobber, og det slutta bare. Nå, over ti år etter at vi startet, tenkte vi å starte igjen, og jeg tror det kan bli gøy (alltid syntes at det er mye mer sosialt med penn og papir). Jeg prøver å skrive litt om gaming selv (jobber på en roman) og vil gi deg skryt for en bra blogg! Skriv gjerne en oppdatering om hvordan det gikk med rollespillet...
ReplyDeleteThanks a lot for your kind words :) Well so far I am between a few games and haven't really had a chance to do some proper RP, but hopefully I will soon :) Good luck with yours!
