The attitude of a player and the environment in which he or she plays
when playing a paper game is dramatically different from that of a
computer game. It's possible to have that attitude and environment
duplicated, but it's very dependent on the colocation of the players,
and not on anything that the game itself does. Paper games are
inherently social because of the colocation aspect.
All I see happening as a result of having many characters at my beck
and call is that I feel more self-sufficient. I'm a firm believer in
dragging players, kicking and screaming if need be, into interactions
with other players. I don't want players running around in my game
with a total heads-down attitude. Just as Achaea's players rely on
PvP interactions to derive their entertainment, I would want to have
my players rely on cooperative interactions (preferably against the
environment or against the gamemasters) to derive their entertainment
from the game.

Thanks for the lengthy explanation, but I really do believe that the
fact that the players are in the same room, joking, talking and eating
pizza together, makes the most fundamental rules of gameplay
different. It almost doesn't matter what the players do while they're
together. The game is simply a complex interaction that they get to
share in. They could just as easily be telling stories.

And what do we do with all of the character items, knowledge, faction
and other skills unrelated to the old character? Paper games are kept
simple because they are usually managed by people. That means that
they stick to the basics. Not so a software game, where there can be
lots of ancillary information.
I find it far simpler to have a flexible character, especially because
of the fact that computer games don't require colocation of the
players. When you fire up your new character, I don't know that it's
you. The assumption there is that I knew your old character. Back
when I was playing D&D, we really didn't care a whole lot about the
characters we were running. Most of the entertainment was at the
player-to-player level. The characters were just a pretext to get
together and have fun adventuring with them.

Well, I haven't played D&D since about 1979, so I'm afraid I'm a
little out of date :)

I wish you'd said this at the beginning :) I think that the multiple
character approach would work, given the right game experience to back
it up. It would be a delicate balance to avoid the negative
psychological implications that go along with multiple characters
(e.g. a sense of self-sufficiency) while at the same time providing
good entertainment.
Perhaps if the game were campaign based, for a smaller number of
characters. Is it Shadowbane that's running things this way? If
there was a logical ending point for use of a character, and that
everyone understood that characters could be rebuilt based on some
total value mechanism at the end of a campaign, this sort of thing
might work quite well. In a continuous play game, I have difficulty
seeing it work. That may only be my shortsightedness.
