    I did poly for a long time and wasn’t that into board games. But yeah a lot of poly people are into them.

    I’m more into tabletop RPGs, but never achieved the dream of a polycule party.

    Nowadays I wouldn’t even recommend crossing the streams that way.

    • I recently had a poly breakup. One of my fears was that it would be the end of the campaign I’ve been dming since the the group was me, a partner and a few of their other partners. Turns out we can all be adults and the game is still on. ☺

      Depending on how broad definitions we run by, then board game can be synonymous with tabletop. Especially for the uninitiated

        I’ve found that there’s a weird rift where a surprising amount of people who like board games dislike tabletop RPGs. I think because they’re so open, where board games are more structured and directed.

        In the biggest polycule I know, there’s a mix of “likes both”, “doesn’t do RPGs but like board games”, and … I don’t know if anyone likes neither in that crew.
