[QUOTE="player 2, post: 2725015, member: 30142"] YES, YES, YES! :D 3.5 is my first experience with any RPG. I have not found it "complex", I find the basic rules fairly easy to understand and I love all the "flavorful tibits" I can add to my character as I become more familiar with the game (feats, prestige classes, cross-classing, etc). My husband taught me how to play and before my first session, he had me roll up a few character to get the feel for all of the stats. The group that I am playing in had 4 players who had played 3.0 or 3.5, 2 players who had not played D&D in at least 10 yrs, and 1 who had never played an RPG before (me!) My first character was a dwarven fighter because it is so straightforward. I see a creature, I hit it, I kill it, I may get hurt, the cleric heals me and I am ready to go again :) I still have questions about the rules, but as we come across them, they are answered. I never felt any pressure to understand all the rules before our first session, and it helps that we are all learning as we go. My DM loves to add new rules and information to the game as it comes out. He keeps us on our toes! And as I play more, the more I look forward to playing other types of characters to see how they work. You have succeeded in bring another player into the deep, dark, depths of D&D addiction :p [/QUOTE]
