My choice would be a story-driven RP. I prefer there to be some over arcing theme/story that is present to the ongoing RP.
It doesn't have to drive every scene mind you, I don't mind occasional slice of life RP if it leads to character development, making connections, or just minute but enjoyable scenes. And to have a good story, you need a little bit of everything! A spoonful of comedy, a sprinkle of romance, a dash of adventure with some drama stirred in! And sometimes to run a scene or a conflict, you may need a DM to drive, or some NPCs to fill in to increase the immersion.
My jam? Scenes that move me, bring me to tears, twist my gut, or make me think on it for days. But you can't have those all the time. The build to some moments like those are made up of everything else. I also treasure little gems that are discovered in a scene, where you pause and go "well, what do you know!" because you just took part in someone else's character growth or there was a connection made. I love those too.
So I guess it is "whatever makes a good story" for me.
