Yeah, I've downloaded the PDF for Basic D&D. Or, at least, the part of Basic D&D that has been released so far; RPGPundit reports that this is basically version 0.1 and we won't have version 1.0 until the end of the year.
I'm not finished reading it, so I have no breakdown of parts I dislike versus parts I'm willing to steal. I'm mainly reading it to see how I'd go about allowing a 5e character at my OD&D table, should a player wish to do so.
I'm sure I'll have more to say about it as I read and digest it, but I know right now I'd never run it, and probably wouldn't even play it, except under extraordinary circumstances, or in a heavily houseruled version. Basically, all that crap that's in chargen should be moved behind the GM's screen where I don't have to look at it or think about it before I'd play at a 5e table.
