What are your preferred modes of play?

[Wolfpack48]

So what styles of tabletop roleplay do you like? Check as many as you like, and feel free to add more -- if unsure of a category or selection, feel free to add your own definition to elaborate. No wrong answers here, and there can be lots of crossover between all of these. Happy Valentines Day everyone!

I went with just other. I think I get some of these, but I feel some are a bundle of concepts that dont actually make a single selection. Like "world development / crafting" im trying to figure out exactly what that means? World building might be a better description? Is developing a setting through play intended here? Crafting actual magic items?

For Other:

I try to the extent I can, to accommodate the modes of play my table enjoys.

World building is valid there too -- it's basically crafting the world itself, as opposed to crafting an iron helm in the world (which would be a pretty silly category). But hey, maybe crafting helms is your thing too.

Id add my own, political intrigue. I like faction play and leaning into the social pillar of RPGs.

Ah cool, I'll add that one.

You left off simple fun -- beer n pretzels, joking around, thinly veiled pop culture references and so on.

I checked a lot of boxes because I enjoy a wide variety of gaming, from OSR to Story Now. Of course this means we have too many games. But can one have too many?

I can't be the only one that likes combat! C'mon. You know you like it.
