The Questing Beast RPG Playstyle Survey
docs.google.com
The goal of this survey is to paint as complete a picture as possible of how people play tabletop roleplaying games today. Please share this as widely as possible, especially with people you know who don't normally engage with the online RPG community. We want to hear from as many different types of RPG players as possible. All data will be publicly released on my blog for anyone to analyze once the survey has ended. The survey should take 10-15 minutes to complete.

Questing Beast has a RPG Playstyle Survey. Please share. All data will be released once survey closes.

Knave and Maze Rats were created by Questing Beasts. I really like the tables in Knave 2E

    While filling out this survey I noticed this isn’t how I run games at all. Or how I experience playing ttrpgs.

    Each of my games and tables works very differently from a playstyle point of view. Do people run all their games the same usually?

    Like realism vs drama, that is a system and table question, not a how do you run your games in general question. If you run a Masks game with the same level of realism and drama as you run The Dark Eye, at least one of your games will feel off imo.

    The same is true for most of the questions made. In narrative games the players will have much more agency over the world than in a hexcrawl. One will have cooperative world building, while the other is about exploring the either preset world and/or randomly generated events and locations. The list goes on.

    My point: this seems to be written by someone who is used to each table or GM or player having a singular way to play. Definitely not true for the two groups I meet with a few times a month.
