[Discussion] Forum Game Survey

Postby Fenraiser » Wed Apr 07, 2021 8:59 pm

If you chose "Other" or would like to express more than one option in the poll, please elaborate here. I like forum games and playing games in general, so I'm keen to exploring game formats/mediums and would like to see how other people prefer to play.

where teamspeak or quicktopic

I feel like it mainly depends on the type of forum game, like personally I find mafia better on forums cause it's slower and less need to scroll, same with secret hitler. But other games like coup I can see being better on discord.

I agree though, running Coup on discord is better and I didn't have much problems with inactivity early on until towards the end (which is expected). Mafia for longer phases needs a forum, things like turbos are probably suited to discord.

I was thinking of running a roleplaying type game similar to BRVR's game and the Mutiny genres, so I was kind of curious what medium people would like. In actuality, I should have asked what kinds of games people want to play instead to gauge interest, but this topic could be pretty cool regardless.

While roleplaying-type games I think might be better on forums, there could be a good use of discord especially with a roleplaying-type game with secret actions and solo-play (VLDR, DR, Monokuma Hunter) given how discord organizes player channels. A hybrid-approach might be good, tbh.

Also, another important question is what kinds of gamws does everyone want to play?
