Regarding the "in English bitte": I'm not sure if it's a thing all around German Drachenfest or only in the golden camp, but we have a tradition that when people are shouting battlecries, someone who isn't native shouts back "What are they shouting?" and everybody answers "Something in German!" 🤣

Im at my first Drachenfest (germany) next week. I dont have social media, communication has been a nightmare for me! The forums are dead, so I've relied solely on others for speaking for me through Facebook to get any Information.

On the last day Metwabe auctions off the open bottles for copper, that's always great, so save up your money and don't get robbed

Sad that you won't come to Germany this year, but great that you will try out new stuff. Wow, Australia, I am looking forward to that coverage.

For explanation: this was Copper fighting Chaos and Chaos won. Afterwards Choas zombified the Copper fighters and led them to the White Camp, to fight on their behalf. Wonderful poetic injustice

We will be leaving home tomorrow heading to Drachenfest 2024, as citizens at the post office. We might be seeing each other. Thanks for remindering and hyping us up

Awesome video’s! Thank you! This year will be my first DF. Going to camp Silver to join the Yoshida clan.

Ok, its too late this year, but heres an idea for you, this year i will be attending my first ever Bicolline in quebec canada, when i am done i will message you about possibly coming in 2025, i think you really should consider this

ta mate very cool.

I'm keen to go to the aus one since I live here, but I've never done larp before so kind of on the fence still. Would love to see anything more on it if you end up going. I believe it was on last year but I can't find a second of footage for it so I would love a vid about it.

This is now my only item on my bucket list.

See you at Empire?

Are you going to try Bicolline in 2025 ?

Good to hear you are doing well and looking forward to hearing about your adventures wherever ou decide to go. I certainly recommend Empire in the UK and Epic Empires in Germany as possible future destinations.

DF OZ? Really ?? Excellent! Get in touch when you have more details. The Ravens (formerly part of the OG Grand Expedition) are running an old school larper's group for the event, more than welcome to join us if you want..

Hope you have a lovely time at the AUS one! I will be heading to the US one, oh god panic, shortly! And I have to thank you a lot Will as videos of yours helped me finally decide to go to one. As a first timer I'm sure it will be loads of fun once I arrive :D

Talk with me about international events! I'll be here and there❤❤

Great to see you're keeping well! Also feel free to hit me up about any of the streaming stuff, I should be able offer some guidance if you're interested.

Glad you're doing well mate :) Keep up the LARP life! So what do YOU like most to talk about when it comes to LARP? Cause my go to topic is combat (yes, mad for swords and some fighting to be done) and the storytelling aspect of it. Love me a good story.

Amazing

Great to attend the event vicariously through your videos mate. Especially nice to get a look at the current traders still trading.

YOUR VIDEO SUCK IT A THUMB DOWN ON YOUR VIDEO FROM RASHEED NATHA ONLYS

there is a larp happening in scotland in june its called warriors of middle earth based on lord of the rings its being played at duncarron medieval village i think its gonna be epic you should see the site its awesome

I really should have done a lesson plan before the event! Hopefully folks enjoyed the lesson.

Bless there what countrie are you from thanks

Glad to see you post, I'll look forward to seeing some new videos.

Some fair observations (which I would tend to agree with) put rather diplomatically. Glad to see you both doing well.

We were very fortunate to have such performances made possible.

Huzzah!

Thank you Will for preserving this moment for all these years. Hopefully people learned a few things and still enjoyed themselves.

Ah, such sweet nostalgia. Thanks for the work Will.

Go on homie do your thing

planning on going to my first one this year with my fiance. been addicted to your channel since we planned to go when my friend told us he went. so excited! (we are going to the US 2024)

Now I'm turning 28 and I feel my life has been wasted and is coming up to a point of no return and that I've permanently messed up everything. I mean I own a home but I just live in my basement and let my mother sister and nephew have rein of the rest. I didn't even want to own a home yet. Didn't have a choice tho and now I feel like the weight of the world is on my shoulders cause with out me and my paychecks my mother and sister won't have a home and my paychecks are only a couple over minimum wage. Which isn't bad but now I have so much with bills, more then they do and I'm still expected to have all this money and to afford all this crap when I can't. Hell I even broke my foot last year and it didn't even hurt as much as what I thought a broken bone might, but I was panicking about not being able to work and worrying about bills and needing to have people do things for me and making me feel lazy cause my mom even said if she broke hers she'd still be walking around and doing this doing that ect. Anyways I'm turning 28 and I've wasted my life and I'm stuck with to much weight on my shoulders and to much fear in my heart or mind. All my life has been ever since I could, has been work sleep work sleep work sleep. Had to drop out of high-school whenever my job went to 12 hours and my mother was busy taking care of my older sister and her addiction issues and her eating us out of rhe house and being in and out of prison and jail. And tho my sister is better ever since she found out she was pregnant and had my nephew 5 years ago I even got out before that and thought I was gonna be better but then I got sucked back in and now it all falls on me. While they can take entire weeks off of work and only work a few days a week but still complain about how I'm not doing much. I'm trying my best, I am truly. But it's so hard and I've already got my plate stacked with mental health issues that I can't even get taken care of cause then they'll just get angry. Worst of all I can't even drive cause need to focus on so many things at once and it becime so overwhelming that I pass out basically. My body shuts my vision and hearing off and the next thing I know is my mother is pulling the steering wheel off to the right side of the road and yelling. To sum it up, I'm a soon to be 28 year old living in my own basement with no friends, loads of trauma and health issues mental and physical, no diploma or ged and I'm chained (metaphorically) down and don't know what to do and haven't done crap with my life. Just wish there was a switch I could flip to have a better mindset or understanding. Stupid brain chemicals and imbalances

Great haircut . Even though you were ready was there still a little trauma and sadness

Is it still like that?

You should try Eyelarp's Flyin' lead games. They're just outside of Reading. I used to play them/ crew them, and they're class.

“This one time at bandit camp…”

Love that giant Props , the amazing costumes (especially the Shiny ones) And the Storytelling at Drachenfest <3 And love the Attidude of the Avatars and High Priestress. They nail that devine Attitude.

11:40 the real horror of the park is the 60 minute wait

Great stuff!!

DAMN there are my guys from the Green Camp going ^^ Nice one Will :)

Hello Will, just found your channel recently! I've been thinking in try LARPing for the first time. How is it the Drachenfest for non German speakers? And do you have some recommendations for someone going for the first time by themselves? I'm based in Ireland as well, I was trying to find groups of people going from here but so far no luck.

What us this?

Looks amazing, how do you keep track on who's who in a fight like that?

I didn't know the Goldens were so kinky! 😂 The art is stunning though!

hope you come to drachenfest us next year, ive heard it got bigger
