My friends and I want to start a campaign. We don't know the ruling for the game. We are waiting for our official book to come in so we can start our first session. Can anyone explain in a simplistic manner the rules for D&D? Classes and Races we will review ourselves. Just want to know the basics.

If you want a system with fewer rules, why don't you just play a system with fewer rules? There's many and they're typically free.

Guess what, D&D is free, 5e is Creative Commons. Also guess what, it’s all D&D, your snark isn’t necessary. Wizards of the coast’s Dungeons and Dragons (tm ) is not the best version of the game, and it isn’t the only version of the game. https://youtu.be/D6S2vhY6iPk

I wasn't trying to be snarky, it was a real question. Saying dnd is free is a little bit disingenuous because only like 10% of it is actually free. There are many systems out there where all rules are free. And they are actually rules light.

Sorry you didn't like the question.
