A two person game IS possible, if you're just starting out. It IS confusing though

But it'll at least give you an idea.
Also, something to try...
http://www.rptools.net/ and then go to downloads and MapTool. Jenny (my wife) just found this program and oh my gosh, it is SO cool. You basically can create your own D&D map, on the computer, which is fun in itself. However, you can also host a game and play with friends from anywhere in the world!!!
We're hoping to try this out, once we gather a few people. We don't have any local friends who play either.
