If you are annoyed that character creation takes a long time in more recent editions, it is because you are making things more difficult than they have to be. You can create a character in 3e/3.5e (or 4e) D&D in ten minutes, or many hours. If you are taking many hours to make a character you can't blame the system. The complaint seemed to be aimed at a previous comment that making characters took forever because people had to plan out their character many levels in advance. The chargen in more recent editions of D&D can take scant minutes: I know because I have put together several characters in just a handful of minutes each. If chargen is taking a long time for more recent editions, that is a function of the player, not the system.</blockquote>
