I’ve done my first 3 sessions this week, with 3 different groups. The first two I was a player, and in the 3rd I was the GM. All three sessions took between 3 to 3.5 hours. All three sessions consisted of character creation and then 1 score + development rolls.

I would say the average was 45 minutes for character creation, and that was because we took an effort to talk about backgrounds and RP it out a little. The first score took about 2 hours while people get comfortable with mechanics.

The development rolls and downtime was kind of the most frustrating part, but I don’t know if that was because we were tired at the end of the session, confused about some of the downtime/development system, or both.

I think the ordering of the pages for the downtime/development system is the roughest part. We found ourselves jumping around between the beginning (page 5?) and the end (29 and thereabouts) to do everything we needed to, and even then, I feel like I’ve missed some of the clean up in all 3 sessions.

Obviously, I’m having fun, because I played in 3 sessions in one week. Just trying to throw my 2 cents in for what I thought was the part of the quickstart that needed the most loving.
