I was going to say that, plus through in what sort of tools you are using to help make the character (books and pencil vs. D&D Beyond)It depends on what class is being picked and what the player's mastery of the system is.
This sentence reads odd to me since I defiantly consider using Roll20's Charactermancer or D&D beyond to be "creating a character." It sounds like you saying, "I'm talking about creating a character, not creating a character."Sorry, I should have specified that I was asking about creating a character, NOT using automated generators or charactermancers that do the work for you.
Are you saying for the purposes of this poll you're interested in making characters without electronic aides, just paper and pencil?
For me creating a character is about making the decisions, not what tools you use to make them.
