D&D 5E (Poll) I play 5e, and there are X players at the table.

Group 1: 6(my absolute cap)
Group 2:4
Group 3: 5

This should be multiple choice, I play in two groups and run about three.

Also- do you count remote players as "at the table"?

Assuming the answer is yes, my groups' sizes are: 8, 4, 10, 9, 5.

You also have the issue where one person can do 3,4,5 for their 3 tables....but the person with 3 4 person tables still only gets one entry, so that's just another version of the skew.

So I went with just one entry

I have five playing in my weekly game. To me, that's a perfect number!

Although it is fun when we drop down to three players... D&D goes FAST with three players!

Since someone asked about remote, let me clarify. Remote Players should count for the number (at the table was just an expression, hehe should have known better).

I currently have an in-person group of 4 + me (DM) and a remote group of 3 + me (DM).

I really like 5 good players best, but 4 works just as well. Six is too many and three is fine, but always feels like it needs one or two more opinions in the mix to have the right texture of gameplay.

It's online, but I've started a 5e campaign and have 6 players.

hehe way way way too soon to draw any conclusions. That number of votes is so low, that the margin for error wipes out any conclusions you could draw.

Still only 67, but the 4-6 is WAY above any of the other group sizes.

 

[Stalker0]

shameless bump to collect more data.

 

[Blackrat]

I answered six. The usual number is 4-5+DM but on the occasion that the entire group is present it is 6+DM.

Woot! Still an outlier!
