I am a DM who had just spent most of my day explaining how to make characters, how the game works, while making notes as to what I would bring up for events/campaign/story....

then one of my friends wants to join and has no idea what it is at all...

this video saved me a lot of time in typing and explaining q-q

Have you seen Chris Perkins' Celebrity D&D game with Robot Chicken? That was the first time playing for a lot of them too and he gets them right into the adventure. I run D&D camps for new players too, I heartily recommend a similar formula. Get them right into the adventure and explain the rules as they come up - not all at the beginning.

How did your try at D&D go?

[sacredbeastzenon]

The main difference is 3.5 is more complex and open. Like I am playing a half-fiend and half-celestial human. 4th edition pigeon holds you into many things like what you can do when you can do it. There's much more balance is 4th to the point where classes feel very similar. In 3.5 balance can be an issue but can be over come.
