[QUOTE="Horwath, post: 6843675, member: 6801299"] No one says that the player who memorises spells is better role player than the one that doesn't. And no one should know all spells. But you MUST know your spells that you have prepared. For me it's just part of the immersion into the character. Also it's disrespectfull to other people at the table that they play out their turn in 10-15 sec and all have to wait for that one guy that has to shuffle through the PHB for 5min...EVERY FRAKKING TURN... if it's 1st session it's perfectly fine, or even 2nd if you started at high level. but after first session; read ALL the spells and write and print out little spell sheets if needs be. It's cool thing to have and you will be better player for it. We all have turns that we are in the mental block about what to do...and it lasts...but if you add to that the fact that you dont even know what your character can even do, it's going to take forever. just saying, when you roleplay your character you have to know what he knows, more or less.
