What would you play?

[IronWolf]

I would play any of those in the group I am in. I certainly have preferences to one system or the other - but if I am to be a player and someone wants to run something in one of the above systems I would play.

 

[Dice4Hire]

Hypothetically I would play nearly any D&D game with my friends if they wanted to play.

Of course the hypothetical chance of my friends wanting to play almost nothing on that list are so small I would vote for someone passing weem in xp first.

 

[Bullgrit]

There is not a game I would not play if my friends came to me and said they wanted to play it. There are games I would not want to run but that takes a lot more effort and requires more from me.

This.

You realize there is something wrong with the development of the core game when the most popular choice is "Various OGL/d20 3rd Party Games". Of course, this includes Pathfinder, which many people today feel IS the core development of the game.

This does not indicate anything "wrong", unless you think the sample of folks answering the poll are representative of the market in general. There are a long list of reasons to expect this is not true of polls on EN World, and this poll in specific.

So, please, folks, stop trying to use these results to take pot-shots at games. It makes you look... well, like someone who either does not understand statistics, or is willing to ignore how statistics work in order to make their point.

People would have to talk long and hard before I was a player in 4e, but I would readily be a player in any of the others.

 

[Wednesday Boy]

I picked the one system that I'd really want to play in but I'd at least give another system a try if my friends really wanted to.

 

[Elf Witch]

I am opened to playing everything on the list with the exception of 4E.

I might consider 4E if I knew the DM well and knew him to be a great DM.

But I would try and talk them into running something else first.

As a DM I would be most comfortable running 3.0/3.5 or a clone but if there was enough interest I would be willing to try and run one of the older editions.

 

[ThirdWizard]

I can only think of one or two RPGs on the market that I wouldn't play. Even if one of my friends was gung ho about running a Skills & Powers AD&D 2e game, I would still play it! Am I crazy? Maybe!

 

[TerraDave]

I will join the chorus: play, without constraints: all of the above.

DMing in real life: 4E. If I could get others to go along, 4E or my own, depending.

 

[Barastrondo]

Must spread around rep before giving to Crothian, etc.

Yes. "Anything, dependent on who's running" is the answer. I would probably prefer some games over others if we're talking a long haul of a campaign, but yeah, give me good friends who enjoy the game and it'll be a blast.
