What happens when roleplayer’s in-game feelings spill into their real lives? How are role player communities affected by what happens in a larp?

This talk will explain the phenomenon of bleed in role-playing games and advocate for greater awareness of the phenomenon and increased discussion surrounding the emotional content of role-playing games.

What happens when a roleplayer's in-game feelings spill into their real lives? I'll tell ya what happens:

That Hanks kid never seemed right. Playing RPGs, cross-dressing, always talking to that volleyball

Being able to Google shit better than your clients is a legit career skill.

Yeah, I was thinking of that, too.

It's like, there's now an academic claiming that they have research to back up every worst fear of the early 80s RPG panic...
