Quentin,
the viability of changes is best tested in practice.
From what I can tell, most games are played without Gameplay Changes, but this is mainly among hardcore online players.
RoseCavalier listed all the changes in his SOD_SP as checkboxes.
Yes, it looks like WoG, but at the same time, it's an option: you can bother with checkboxes, or you can choose not to, because there are some default values.
I suggest a real solution: also list all the changes as checkboxes, but at the same time, create sets of checkboxes in accordance with your vision of what should be in the ITP (Initial Tournament Pack) and what should be in the default set. For example, let the "minor changes" button only mark bug fixes for RMG, etc., and let the "gameplay changes" button mark all the remaining checkboxes.
In the end, you can collect statistics on which checkboxes people use (for this, you need to include the appropriate module in the plugin, or somehow agree with Baratorch to collect statistics).
In this case, you won't even need surveys; you'll see everything yourself, and at the same time, you'll understand what is in demand in your product and what is not. You can collect statistics from a hundred games in a couple of weeks, no more.
A certain user experience will be developed. Over time, sets of checkboxes for tournaments will appear, tested and recognized by the player community.
Right now, you can take complete control and decide for yourself what should be where, or you can entrust everything to the community – but then be prepared for unexpected results. It is quite possible that, apart from bug fixes, no other change will turn out to be necessary. The third option, which you have chosen – to listen only to part of the community – is the path that will take you furthest from your goals.
