One of the big yearly events of the wargaming world is the annual Great Wargaming Survey, a way to research and gather information on trends and player behaviours which is then available for smaller wargame developers and publishers to use in order to drive their business decisions and present to banks in order to obtain loans.
This allows the smaller developers to compete on a more level playing field with the bigger developers, as they do not have the funds available to pay for market research.
Something like this does not exist for tabletop roleplaying.
With this, that will change.
The Great Tabletop Roleplaying Survey is a 20 section survey that should take you between 10 and 15 minutes, depending on how much detail goes into your answers. There is also a much shorter section for people who are interested in tabletop but who have not yet gotten into the hobby.
The survey will run until it has hit 1,000 responses (as of this post, the survey has been up for 8 hours and has 100 responses) or the start of February 2024, whichever is first.
My blog will host analysis of the survey, and all non-personal data will be available upon request for small developers and publishers.
It would be greatly appreciated if people would share this far and wide, as the hope is that this will benefit everyone in the long run. If you have any communities that may be interested in this, please post this there.
