Also adding an "I like their personality" option to second question would be nice.

duck make the results public for the comedy 

[Q42]

Wes of course. 2,000+ hour veterans talk about powercreep on characters but if you don't want strong characters just play Wes.

34% more time spent on mining/chopping/hammering isn't fun

I dabble in other characters, but always liked Maxwell the most. I play him for his character/personality.

[Jakepeng99]

Idk i play everyone.

Stereotype away

[GimplyGoose]

Most the time, I like hitting the random button to see who I will be playing.

You will get use to it. Same as one changing from wolfgang to regular damage and hp.

[DownloadADuck]

i expected atleast one wolfgang main... but oh my gosh thats a ton of wormwoods

[Cheggf]

I play Wes, Warly, and Wormwood pretty evenly. I just chose Warly at random since it's single choice. 

[GenomeSquirrel]

Willow mostly, I still love amassing Bernie armies, and beard rugs and meat effigies are just the right level of weird.

 

Wormwood is my second most when I want to mass produce mushrooms.

 

Webber is an old favorite, but is spider lag still problematic.

[Yuuko]

Too many absolutes lol.  Its hard to name a #1 favorite.  If pressed I'd say that is Willow.  She's the one I've spent the most total game time on and the reason I started playing DS since the beginning (if there wasn't a fire girl I would have passed.)  Next to that are Wes and Wanda.  Lately I play Wanda more because she has some fun options with teleporting and her alarming clock is a refreshing change to combat letting me pull some more cheeky moves then a standard weapon can.  She is a favorite, even though she isn't #1... so idk how to answer.  Warly is also fun mechanically speaking, and a sweet guy so I play him a lot too, especially multiplayer.

The new beta of Willow has me ready to switch gears back to her.  The burning is so fun !  I'm really excited to explore my options and pathing through the game with her.

I play as every character in the entire game, but my 3 current world saves are for Wormwood, Woodie, & Wolfgang (because they’re the ones with the newest skill trees) once the Willow & Wigfrid skill trees come to Xbox I’ll have worlds for those too.

Yes you heard me right- A Wendy Main doesn’t have a world where they’re playing as Wendy.

I’m currently focusing on unlocking all the Skill tree Insight points & seeing what new tools are available for Skill tree updated characters to play with.

If you want to ask why I main Wendy it’s got nothing to do with how easy mode her playstyle is (in fact I’d like it to have a bit more depth beyond just summon Abigail..)  I like her Quotes, I like her music instrument sound, I like her skin choices, and I especially enjoy how she’s one of the best characters to pick to be able to just join a world and help people who are struggling.

Like I don’t know how to explain that better, I like that Wendy does not struggle in collecting Silk or Spider Glands to be able to give other players tophats for sanity, or build them tents for healing, or craft a TON of Telltale Hearts to bring the noobie players back from the dead every time they inevitably die.

TL:DR- If I’m gonna teach my noobie friends how to play DST I’m picking Wendy to do it, While they “Experiment” and find the character they like.

[Harrowick]

I love playing Warly for his portable crockpot. It's oddly cozy and comforting to listen to the crockpot cook while doing a nearby chore...  (I also like how superstitious he is, it's a fun little trait heheheee)

[Ohan]

For me its like a 55-45 split between Wickerbottom and Wormwood. I basically only played Wickerbottom from the very beginning of my DST playtime until Wormwood was ported. 

I have a ~890 day wicker world and a 455 day worm world right now and i switch between them depending on mood 

Wickerbottom is a massive commitment and needs a lot of setup so i only play her in my own worlds.

In pubs ill pick mostly Willow because shes the best survivalist imo which is nice when joining “old” pubs with portal areas that have already been stripped totally bare lol or joining in winter/summer. 

[Uedo]

Wurt/Max/Wormwood 

[ShadowDuelist]

Technically speaking my most played character in total hours would be Woodie (over 2k hours were exclusively as Woodie) but I guess I’ve burnt out of that playstyle and I haven’t played him much in the last 3 years (yeah his tree didn’t make him appealing to me again)
My second most played in terms of total hours would be Wicker.

I play mostly Wickerbottom, Maxwell and Wortox now.

[Frosty_Mentos]

I mostly played Willow for sake of my own amusement and that her and Bernie really makes life easier against many local foes. After a while I end up playing Maxwell most cause duelists and cages deal with most problems ingame and resource production is the main goal at the end to make the world look more palatable to my needs and for pleasure of my eyes to make it all into a haven I'd wanna live in.
