D&D 5E New D&D Player Survey!

[payn]

And please, realize that every vote that doesn't include FR is likely a vote against FR with how ubiquitous they have made it.

I've never really loved Forgettable Realms.

 

[Parmandur]

On Birthright.

I expect if the Wargame boargame for Dragonlance does well, some are investigating how Birthright might work with it.

Just a suspicion of mine.

Highly probable.

 

[overgeeked]

Worth noting they're asking about settings...so if you have an interest is some older settings, like Birthright, Dark Sun, Greyhawk, Mystara, or Planescape...you should take the time.

 

[Man in the Funny Hat]

I am a statistically insignificant respondent - I am so far outside what I'm sure is the normal customer profile it's amusing to think about it. But, if you never participate in feedback like this then you give up all right to complain that WotC hasn't or won't give you what you want or handle D&D in the way YOU think they should.

 

[Retreater]

I think the survey took me about 45 minutes. I don't know if they'll like my answers, describing D&D as stagnant and lifeless.

 

[Lanefan]

Just finished - as with the last two posters I suspect they won't like my answers very much, but so be it. For example on the question "how likely am I to recommend D&D to a friend" I voted '9'; but when it asked why that was, I put in that while I'd highly recommend D&D it wouldn't be 5e I'd be recommending. I'm sure they'll love that!

Settings: Homebrew from scratch, Birthright, Mystara

News sites: ENWorld, Dragonsfoot (write-in)

This survey still gives me the impression that when they're asking about my first book and boxed set purchases, they're trying to ask me about WotC 5e purchases but I'm actually telling them about my first 2e purchases because of the way the questions are worded. I feel like these surveys still need a hard edit.

 

[FrogReaver]

Sooo.

A random internet survey that may very well due to its length turn away most of the players that might have otherwise been interested in taking it…

I have no idea what Wotc thinks could possibly be useful about that.

Well, they put out a variation this survey at least yearly, so they get something from it.

I got asked about both

 

[Endroren]

My god. At least enter me in a drawing or something when I take a survey that long. Not sure I'll do another one.

Easily misunderstood data that has the potential to lead to false conclusions?

 

[Parmandur]

Seems to be working for them.

I assume they are hireing people and/or a company that can interpret the data...

then again as I was reminded the other day by a poster "There are three types of lies..."

 

[Azzy]

Did anybody get any of the autocomplete digital game titles they seeded?

Yeah, I got Solasta. So maybe they're taking that one seriously.

 

[Azzy]

What settings did people pick for their favorites?

Greyhawk, Eberron, & homebrew from scratch.

I picked Greyhawk as my top choice because I already have an Eberron book.

Bards*, the temperature, and that guy who tells you, ”Pineapples make the pizza better.”

[Aldarc]

Eberron and Nentir Vale.

I will add that if I could have selected a second "Other" in the survey, I would have probably also selected Chris Perkins's 4e campaign setting Iomandra. Iomandra felt like a fun combination of Nentir Vale, high seas adventure and island hopping, plus a Council of Wyrms.

 

[Paul Farquhar]

Yeah, I got Solasta. So maybe they're taking that one seriously.

Bah, I forgot that! Maybe I should go back and do the survey again?

Got Pathfinder Kingmaker & Wrath of the Righteous on the autocomplete.

 

[Paul Farquhar]

What settings did people pick for their favorites?

Eberron, Cannibalisation for Homebrew. By which I mean heavily modified Forgotten Realms.
