[QUOTE="justanobody, post: 4519688, member: 70778"] The majority of gamers also does not play D&D because they don't want the work it includes. They play video games instead, or CCGs. Things that take little effort and have a big payoff with quick returns. You never had to play all the levels. You don't even have to play a whole level. You never have to play the same class from game to game and can switch it up. Nothing has changed that a party will still need most base classes and a single class party won't work. So there is no real balance when you cannot play the class you want because everyone else want to play it and that leaves the party deficient in functioning because the system has not changed to solve any of that. So there is no real balance so long as each class cannot perform all things equally. Or a party of all fighters cannot perform equally well as a party of all wizards, all clerics, all rogues, etc. So there still is not a balanced game, only a shift in the balance from one aspect to another. Playing a single level or even all levels still does not fix the problem of balance. It just creates another problem. Oddly for such a poor balanced game D&D survived for decades as the #1 RPG in the industry above other games that were more balanced for ages. So you idea really doesn't seem to hold water. [/QUOTE]
