I have been a gamer for (more-or-less) six years now. However, last night was my first experience gaming entirely in French. I went to a 50+ person LARP, out in the woods. The ambiance was amazing: everyone in costume (it was a Dark Ages game), tikis to light the path, and everyone really got into the medieval mindset. Lots of private politiking, lots of philosophical discussions on the nature of Where We Fit In Society.

My frustrations with gaming in French )

Despite all that, I had a great time. Some of the people at that game are REALLY good roleplayers. End result: gaming in another language is VERY humbling. I thought I was both decent in French and a relatively good roleplayer. I'm not sure that's the impression I gave last night! I hope I made a decent impression despite the language barrier. Yan, Frank, what do you think?
