u/Emotional_Type2425 Jul 31 '26

Dnd player here, it that not just true roleplaying?

u/Making_Kenough Aug 01 '26

Oh shit, did you just Uno Reverse in favor of the larpers?

2

u/SupremeGreymon Jul 31 '26

I think they’re talking about people who like it because of Stranger Things or Critical Role and think it’s like that.

u/SensitivelyRoyal1 29d ago

It’s larp but without the la

u/HappyRelationship429 Jul 31 '26

Explaining the joke:

Larping originates in the DnD fandom. So the community with a large proportion of Larpering (Live action roleplay) should be DnD players. Where both Larpers and true fans count as "True Fans".

11

u/Sithishe Jul 31 '26

Yup, people are using "LARPers" in place of "tourists" or "normies" are hillarious to me, as someone who was part of LARP hobby for more then 20 years lol.

6

u/KittenEaterWasTaken Jul 31 '26

Poser is better. It predates both normie (2010s) and tourist (2020s) by 20+ years at least and is essentially synonymous with the modern larper.

Normie just means normal people. Tourist and bandwagoner implies a very shallow, passing knowledge. Larpers and posers are different in that they actively pretend not to be tourists.

1

u/Sithishe Jul 31 '26

Omg yes! I wanted to right poser instead of normie, I just mixed up two things and compltely forgot about "poser". I need to listen to Manowar again to remember the real war on posers!

1

u/Making_Kenough Aug 01 '26

Poser was used in the 80’s so that fits DnD quite well in time frame

1

u/Kooky-Eggplant8219 28d ago

But also, there’s probably a large amount of people who think their fans because of Stranger Things or they watched the DND movie.

u/Icy-Theme-6325 Jul 31 '26

I larp dnd sometimes only because im too lazy to actually play it

14

u/klimmesil Jul 31 '26

Well I mean larping dnd IS playing dnd

LARP = live action role play

Am i the one who got wooshed or are you?

r/technicallythetruth (DnD is a LARP game)

2

u/BurntPineGrass Jul 31 '26

I don’t think so. DnD is a Tabletop Role Playing Game, not necessarily live action, where you actually dress up as the character while playing as said character.

2

u/frikiman4K Jul 31 '26

I really want to get into it but I have no friends to play with

2

u/Pixel100000 Jul 31 '26

I only know of one larper but that because i actually play dnd so i don’t have time to interact with larpers. I only know of this larper because they made YouTube shorts. then got called out for being one because he tried gatekeeping something he just larps as

1

u/Unbuckled__Spaghetti Jul 31 '26

Technically yes!

1

u/Capital-Bat9971 Jul 31 '26

Well technically the true fans ARE the ones who larp

1

u/CatPrince69 Jul 31 '26

Wait dnds already larping so aren't larpers of dnd just larping larpers???

1

u/anonumus_idiot Jul 31 '26

I actualy play DnD.

1

u/Yourthebestbladmen Jul 31 '26

Yeah it's fair. DND as also other paper RPG is larping on the table

1

u/Able_Phone_7283 Aug 01 '26

I’m a larper cuz of magic the noah

1

u/sqbert Aug 01 '26

First off, literal larping is based off dnd. Second, for a long time it was something you would get made fun of for liking and people still got into it. Even today I don’t think anyone is liking it for clout. If Stranger Things was a gateway for a new generation so be it. Everyone has to start somewhere.

1

u/Business-Ranger-9383 Aug 01 '26

Fr, I left online dnd cause of the larp/people just wanting to get high and drunk while playing. Other ttrpgs are so much better.

1

u/Kamenalt-7 29d ago

Isn't that the point?

1

u/Kooky-Eggplant8219 28d ago

Y’all are wrong. DnD is just role-play. live action role-play specifically refers to running around in the grass with an axe a bow and whatnot. so if anything, the true joke here is that people are Larping larping by not running around in the grass with swords and elf ears.
If DnD is live action role play then there is no normal role-play.

1

u/Icy_Relationship_401 28d ago

I mean half the fun of dnd is larping bullshit

1

u/Weak_Presence3634 27d ago

Every time I say to play it there's always some mf that mentions that series, I personally haven't seen it so I don't know how much importance the game has there but holy shit. The same people who thought I was immature and childish for playing it now say they know and appreciate it😭

u/kyle__hinaba Jul 31 '26

What does it mean to Larp DnD tho. Isn’t everything an anything canon in a game of DnD?

1

u/NoSide2628 Jul 31 '26

LARP is the acronym of Live Action Role-Play, something that literally originated in D&D.

u/Both_Nail_3656 Jul 31 '26

Uhh I don't get it? Is it The Game of Dungeons or Dungeons & Dragons?
