What RPG Do You Play Most?

What RPG do you play most?


I actually hit the wrong one (D&D 4e), but here's how it should be:

3.5E is currently most-played; once every other week (sometimes weekly).

It was 3.5E and 4E equally up until I started doing online courses in October. I DM both, though my preference has been 4E since it came out. But I've ported over a lot of 4E design theory into my 3.5E, so it's not so laborious.

I'm also involved in a game of Call of Cthulu that rocks, but we get together once every couple months...when we're lucky.

RPGA Game days tips the balance for me, since those are all 4E Living Forgotten Realms now. Otherwise it's a dead tie between 3.5 and 4E for me, with two concurrent campaigns in each edition. As DM I am going insane with rules conflicts between the two (5 foot step, movement, simple stuff like that) that I will err on from time to time. Thankfully the players are alert and let me know when I slip up.
 

Hmmm...

Taking neuronphaser at his word, plus adding up the various 3.X/D20 games (not including M&M), the previous edition is running just behind 4Ed in popularity.

Add in M&M, and it surpasses it.

Just like in Edina's 2 changeover polls, that's not what WotC was looking for.

Still, having one system take 40+% of the market described in the poll (and taking into account the nature of ENWorld), that still isn't bad news.

Just not as good as WotC would want.
 

In RL, we have 2 3.5 games (though one could be narrativist anything) and a 4E game, so I voted 3.5. I'm not counting my PbP, which are mostly 3.5 due to historical reasons (4E just came out as far as PbP is concerned). Woulda voted for both as that is the actual truth, but majority wins I guess.
 

I chose Mutants and Masterminds. Soon, I'll be starting a DND 3.x campaign and, if the choices had been limited to versions of DND and retro clones, 3.x would have been my choice.

What makes you say that?

What were they looking for?
 

The main thing is that I am trying to stay away from miniatures games, and rpgs that feel too much like them.
Interesting. Is this because you simply don't like miniature games or is it because they scratch a itch that you shouldn't scratch (mini-madness)?

I don't really like mini games - I should say, wargames - but I do like adding a little tactical skirmish action in my role-playing. It's one of the reasons I like 3.x and 4e.
