Idle curiosity: if you were invited to play a 5e campaign that was expected be in similar size and scope to a Storm King's Thunder or Out of the Abyss, except that there would be no XP or leveling, would you be interested in such a game?
Presume that the FM and fellow players are people you like and trust, and that the level you will be st for the campaign is in your personal "sweet spot" as far as 5e characters are concerned.
Also note that no leveling does not mean no character development. Things like the gaining prestige, influence, land and titles are on the table, as well as the accumulation of wealth and some magic items.
Finally, assume this is a story based campaign, designed to have a beginning, middle and end with the promise of a personal character arc to whatever degree you prefer such things.
So, in short, would you play long form D&D without gaining levels?
