I chose Fantasy, Science Fiction and Horror myself. Although I have a soft-spot for the alternate history and superhero genre, most campaigns are run are usually from these three genres.

Oh, wait, you can choose more than one?

Yes. You can choose up to three answers. I thought this makes the decision easier for some people.

While the roots of our hobby are in Fantasy, it has never been a favorite of mine. I can run fantasy, and do enjoy it, but my favorite games and settings are Sci Fi.

Running a close second for me, is Contemporary. I have run a few modern based games and fully enjoyed them as well.

Likewise I selected Fantasy, Science Fiction and Horror. If I had to classify them in my order of preference they would be in that exact same order. I still love fantasy to this day, I think it has some very nice features and makes it accessible to almost everyone. Sci-Fi is a close second, and the longest campaign I’ve ever played, after the ridiculously long fantasy ones, was a Star Frontiers game. Horror is funny because I REARELLY run the genre, I’ve been a player in more horror campaigns that anything else. Most of the successful horror games I’ve run have been one shot adventures.

Other, for me, being urban fantasy.

Urban fantasy? Like in the Harry Dresden novels?

I wasn't sure how to answer. I would have picked 4 if I could. Right now I'm really into Sci-Fi/Fantasy set in a historical setting with lots of horror elements. (eg. Weird West)

I'm seeing more people starting to experiment with mixing elements from what have become (but weren't always) separate genres. When I was younger I didn't like mixing genres. Now that I'm older I love it. 🙂

Middle-Eastern/Hindu/Asian fantasy is my preference but nobody has done it a way I like until I went out and did it in a way I like. So I will say I don't like anything. It's a strange conclusion I'm sure.

I "like" a whole lot of other stuff. But me and "like" have a strange relationship and I would need more space than this box to 'sperge out and explain it, and more time than I would like devoted to that task.

I considered "urban fantasy" (yes, as in Dresden Files) to fall under Contemporary, so I put it there.

I almost picked Sci-Fi, but I only like about half of sci-fi. Space opera is cool (I very much like Fading Suns). And, I really like post-apocalyptic. Basically, what I like is often termed "science fantasy." Starting from Star Wars through John Carter and out to Thundarr.

My other genre of choice would be swashbuckler, potentially bleeding over into pulp. But, give me pirates vs. musketeers, and I'm happy.

I am so burned out on straight-up fantasy at this point. I have been for nearly ten years, and yet I'm still in a monthly D&D game with all the standard tropes (playing through the Savage Tide campaign). Because I find it so hard to find non-fantasy campaigns.

so I defeated the urge to see what happens when selecting more than 3 genres and went with Science-Fiction, Horror and Superhero…

though when it comes to Science-Fiction, I like things that are sort of happening "now" and not the far future things… and with Horror, I like to be the monster in a contemporary setting…
