Survey (A5E) Level Up Survey #2 - Origins Overview

[Morrus]

A couple of days ago we released our first playtest packet, which included the proposed details of our ‘Origins’ system to replace the existing 5E race/subrace arrangement.

The Origins playtest packet was a large document, at over 75 pages. For this reason we are breaking up our survey about the packet into a number of smaller surveys throughout the coming week. You don’t have to answer every one.

This survey is a broad overview of the document which will enable us to get a very general snapshot of your impressions of the playtest. Future surveys (all coming this week) will delve into individual heritages and cultures.

There are no wrong answers. The playtest process - by definition - will likely include elements that you don’t like, as well as things that you enjoy. That’s OK; that’s exactly what the surveys are for. Your answers are what will help guide us during the development process.

Take the survey

Done!

Overall is a really good start. It sets the bar quite high for the rest

Done!

A nice short, succinct survey, very appropriate questions for giving us a day to think over the material. If there was a survey on this survey I'd give it a 10/10

While this is called a playtest, with surveys coming out in middle of the first weekend of having doc in hand, how do you expect people to have played already?

It’ll be open for about three weeks.

Personally I think these are the types of surveys I'm interested in. I highly doubt I'm going to read every playtest packet let alone the entirety of them. I'll read portions, and skim others and just give my general assessment of it, unless there's something I see that I really like or hate. As far as the Origins packet, I didn't love it nor did I hate it, overall I think its on the right track. I would like to see the flavor text pared back a bit so its not so wordy.

Not really much time to playtest much. At best 3-6 sessions for most people.

Are you after playtesting or eyeballs?
