[QUOTE="Undrave, post: 7888154, member: 7015698"] I don't get THAT much play time, but I do get tired of the same character after a while. I did 3 levels or so as a Druid and I felt I had seen enough. I snuck around as a Spider, I got info from animals, I unleashed a pack of 8 wolves on unsuspecting villains, I used Plant Growth to stop a caravan of slavers, etc. I had done the 'Cool Things' the character had to offer that got me interested in it in the first place and I was ready to try something else. I was going to stick with my Druid longer but then he died and I decided not to have the party invest in his resurrection only for me to ditch them a few sessions later ya know? Another with character generation being a thing is that it keeps us engaged with the game away from the table. I can come in here and talk about builds and stuff, I can pore over books, I can discuss the options in the books. It keeps DnD in my mind. If we only had the PHB we'd have less to talk about.
