"Type 2 is a strange beast, because it isn’t actually fun at the moment. In fact, it feels much like suffering. It’s only after the event, and in reflection, that you come to realize you actually had fun. Wading through chest-deep snow, dirty and loose rock, sketchy approaches, hikes that never seem to end, and anything that offers an overriding sense of doom and despair are clear indications you’re having a Type 2 experience."
==== Using "Type" to descript larps ====A type Type 2 larp seems to be a larp that deals with difficult themes, or which offers physical challenges such as extremes of temperature, lack of food etc. Increasingly it is used as a synonym for cathartic bleed. By extension a Type 1 larp is just plain fun, and a Type 3 larp suggests either a specific design choice, or a design failure.
