I'm going to note that how this compares to the D&D family depends a lot on how you go about your D&D character building. If you just want to build a level one (or even maybe level 5) character, it may be a fair bit lighter than putting together your starting GURPS character. If you're planning 15-20 levels deep into your progression through a mildly intricate build in a 3rd/3.5/PF build, the GURPS character is going to look simple and straightforward...
