[QUOTE="AaronOfBarbaria, post: 7027217, member: 6701872"] I don't particularly care what number of levels a game has. What I do care about is how long the game will tolerate the same group of characters being played and having at least some sense of mechanical progression. And I like for games to allow for my group to play the same characters for years on end if that is what strikes our fancy. To that end, the games which have levels in them which I prefer are AD&D 2nd edition prior to the DM's Option: High Level Campaigns book because there was no cap on character level, and 5th edition which does have a hard cap at level 20 but also provides the epic boon optional rules that allow for advancement to continue for as long as desired, with the BECMI system of 36 levels then become an immortal and have a whole new set of levels to play through.
