[QUOTE="swrushing, post: 2773455, member: 14140"] [/QUOTE] I suppose it depends on what you mean by "every rule stat". the three lines so to speak were sufficient to play the character in a game that lasted several years. I imagine the 18 lines would be too. Additional lists for equipment and stuff would be separate in both cases. yeah, i get that. but, the question is and perhaps the nostalgia issue is, if having all that more detail in character stats, generated by the more complex system and more complex chargen (in theory...) doesn't produce better play experience or better characters that are more memorable etc... then was it worth the added complexity at all? for sure, more time would be spent on a DND 3.5 character in chargen getting stats than on an Ad&D 1 character... but does that extra effort produce a commensurate increase in fun, in character enjoyability, in all the things you will look back on in ten years time and go "remember when..."?
